Critical pedagogy (CP) empowers L2 learners to have a voice in the classroom and in the society. This study was an attempt to investigate whether the current classroom discourse  in  Iran  can  endow  the  L2  learners with  a  critical  awareness  to  actively transform their learning processes and creatively engage in collaborative dialogues to construct new knowledge. To this end, the discou...

Purpose: This study seeks to identify the EFL students’ satisfaction with online courses they took within scope of hybrid education in post-pandemic period and their attitudes towards e-learning, determine whether there is a relationship between these two variables. 
 Design/Methodology/Approach: Students studying Iğdır University English Language Literature Undergraduate Program spring se...

This paper aims at providing a comprehensive review of previous research on second language (L2) writing. Major issues and the relevant findings from five areas of inquiry into L2 writing are presented, namely, L2 writers’ characteristics, the L2 writing process, L2 writing feedback, L2 writing instruction, and L2 writers’ texts. It is found that L2 writing is quite a complex process which invo...

Based on the controversial beliefs among L2 teachers about effective corrective feedback (CF) strategies, recast and prompts as 2 kinds of CF have drawn the attention of L2 researchers(e.g., Braidi, 2002; Iwashita, 2003; Loewen & Philp, 2006; Panova & Lyster, 2002; Sheen, 2004). Despite these numbers of studies, debate continues to exist about their usefulness as a CF technique. Whereas recasts...

G. Frege introduced two concepts which are central to modern formal approaches to natural language semantics; i.e. the notion of reference (denotation, extension, Bedeutung) and sense (intension, Sinn) of proper names. The sense of a proper name is wherin the mode of presentation (of the denotation) is contained. For Frege proper names include not only expressions such as Peter, Shakespeare but...

We have showed previously that the Fourier transform is an isometric isomorphism on L2 = CcR ∩ L2Rn. In particular, we have a ∀u ∈ L2 ||u||0 = ||û||0 Parseval relation b ∀u,v ∈ L2, u,v0 = û, v̂0 Plancherel relation The results (a) and (b) hold for every test function, and since the test functions are dense in L2Rn, they extend to L2Rn by continuity. Then the Fourier transform can...

in this paper, g-dual function-valued frames in l2(0;1) are in-troduced. we can achieve more reconstruction formulas to ob-tain signals in l2(0;1) by applying g-dual function-valued framesin l2(0;1).

According  to  a  basic  prediction  made  by  the  Revised  Hierarchical  Model  (RHM),  at  early  stages  of language  acquisition,  strong  L2-L1  lexical  links  are  formed.  RHM  predicts  that  these  links  weaken with  increasing  proficiency,  although  they  do  not  disappear  even  at  higher  levels  of  language development. To test this prediction, two groups of highly proficie...

The present study investigated any probable relationship between theidentity processing styles and L2 literacy of advanced Persian EFL learners. Theparticipants included 160 (female = 109, male = 51) advanced EFL Iranian learners.The instruments used included a simulation of the TOEFL iBT test, measuring theparticipants’ L2 literacy-related proficiency, reading, and writing, and the identitysty...
