In this presentation, I will first discuss these trends in L2 motivation research. Then I will introduce two longitudinal studies that I conducted on the topic and discuss how those studies reflect the aforementioned developments of the field. The two participants were two of the high school students that took part in my dissertation, which I turned in to the Department of SLS in 2013. They are now very academically-oriented students at one of the top-tiered universities in Japan at the graduate level. They showed distinct patterns regarding the development of their English\/LOTE motivation during the six years that I interviewed them, and these developments contrast with those reported in studies in the European contexts, where multilingualism is more highly valued than in Japan. This points to the importance of examining contextual factors when discussing English\/LOTE motivation.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>September 12<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>The importance of production for the acquisition of L2 grammatical structures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter:\u00a0Carrie\u00a0Jackson, Professor of German and Linguistics, The Pennsylvania State University<\/p>\n<p>An important question in instructed second language (L2) acquisition regards the relative effectiveness of comprehension-based instruction and production-based instruction for learning L2 grammatical forms. While recent meta-analyses (Shintani, 2015; Shintani, et al., 2013) show an immediate advantage of comprehension-based instruction for receptive knowledge and a long-term advantage of production-based instruction for productive knowledge, many questions remain regarding how these different instructional methods affect the underlying mechanisms that support L2 acquisition and use. In this talk I will present results from two recent studies investigating whether overt production promotes the acquisition and use of two different grammatical structures among L2 learners of German. In Study 1, 3<sup>rd<\/sup> semester German learners completed a structural priming task targeting the production of sentence-initial adverbial phrases (e.g., <em>Auf dem Berg tr\u00e4gt der Junge eine Jacke<\/em> \u201cOn the mountain the boy wears a jacket\u201d vs. <em>Der Junge tr\u00e4gt eine Jacke auf dem Berg<\/em> \u201cThe boy wears a jacket on the mountain\u201d). After listening to prime sentences that contained sentence-initial adverbial phrases, participants who were required to repeat the prime aloud before describing a new picture produced significantly more sentences containing a sentence-initial adverbial phrases than participants who simply listened to the prime sentences before describing subsequent pictures. In Study 2, 1<sup>st<\/sup> semester German learners completed a comprehension-based or production-based training unit targeting grammatical gender marking (e.g., <em>ein blauer Becher <\/em>\u201ca<sub>.MASC<\/sub> blue<sub>.MASC<\/sub> cup<sub>.MASC<\/sub>\u201d vs. <em>eine blaue Sch\u00fcssel <\/em>\u201ca<sub>.FEM<\/sub> red<sub>.FEM <\/sub>bowl<sub>.FEM<\/sub>\u201d). The participants in the production-based training group outperformed the comprehension-based training group on all posttest measures. Together these studies highlight the importance of overtly producing target L2 grammatical forms during learning. I attribute this benefit for production to the cognitive mechanisms underlying language production, including utterance planning and lexical retrieval, and the need to maintain lexical and grammatical information in working memory while producing a sentence.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>September 19<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Collaboration between Forestry and Language Sciences for Building a Translanguaging Mixed Reality<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Dongping Zheng, Associate Professor, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>Team Members:<br \/>\nDong, Jin, University of Hawai\u02bbi at M\u0101noa, Honolulu, United States of America<br \/>\nLiu, Yang, Chinese Academy of Forestry, Beijing, China<br \/>\nMelik Tangiyev, Denis, University of Hawai\u02bbi at M\u0101noa, Honolulu<br \/>\nNokes, James, Independent Researcher, Wildwood, United States of America<br \/>\nDr. Zhang, Huaiqing, Chinese Academy of Forestry, Beijing, China<\/p>\n<p>This project is an intercultural, interdisciplinary, and transnational collaboration between language scientists in the United States and forestry scientists in China. Through our shared concern for ecological crises as well as the limitations placed on learners by object-based or synchronic systems (Cowley, 2017; van Love, 2017), we strive to help language learners establish harmonious and eco-mindful participation within multilingual societies that co-constitutively shape their multimodal languaging and translanguaging skills (Newgarden, Zheng, and Liu, 2015; Li, 2018).<\/p>\n<p>Our team employed a mixed VR design to help realize these values in learners by establishing Bizhuwangshang, an emerging village meant to give learners the opportunity to explore the effects that humans have on their ecosystem while also discovering how mindful stewardship could be implemented. The VR space allows users to embody the world predicament both emotionally and relationally and then receive feedback by traveling into the future to see the impact of their choices (based upon forestry science impact models and projections). In the process of finding solutions to their environmental challenges, users will engage not only with members of their team but also with real-world artifacts such as National Geographic articles and other scientific pieces\u2014all of which will provide ample opportunity for languaging and translanguaging.<\/p>\n<p>In this informal Brown Bag Round Table, I will share how my previous research on designing and studying multi-user role-playing spaces and games lead to this project.<\/p>\n<p>This project is funded by VISLAB, Chinese Academy of Forestry and UHM and Peking University Exchange Program.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>October 3<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Summer of 2019: Collaboratively building a Virtual reality Environment in Beijing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Denis Melik Tangiyev, MA Student, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>In this talk, I will be discussing a recent Virtual Reality (VR) project that I began during my time in Beijing, China, thanks to the UHM-Peking exchange program. I was able to work closely with programmers in VISLAB. During my time, we began to build the foundations of what is now known as Bizhuwanshang, a fictional panda reserve set in South-West China. This virtual environment was developed to help show users the effects of climate change on the natural environment, as well as show how much of an impact humans could have on surrounding territories when expanding their influence. This project is meant to bridge a connection between the natural sciences and language sciences; allowing us to background the natural sciences while allowing users to experience ecolinguistics. VISLAB\u2019s expertise allows us to demonstrate the effects of forest growth and animal habitation, which provides a rich scientific context for users. I will be discussing why language learners should broaden their sense of knowledge about the ecosystem and ecolinguistics. Our virtual world allows for users to experience these global changes, as well as attempt to make a difference; allowing them to collaborate in their target language.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>October 10<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Teaching and Living in Chile<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenters: Betsy Gilliland, Associate Professor; &amp; Amy Marquardt, SLS MA Graduate; Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>Chile is a country of diverse terrain, located on the Pacific Coast of South America.

Traditional forms of scholarship, such as journal articles, are generally not easy for non-specialist readers. Hence, alternative forms of scholarship are needed if that knowledge is meant to be shared outside academia. Moreover, due to the widespread and hegemonic nature of English, impactful research works are often mainly published in English, which not only limits the access opportunities for many non-English-using people, but also devalues the significance of local languages and other ways of sharing research findings. Thus, accessible research findings published in multiple languages are also necessary. Multi-\u02bb\u014dlelo is an online platform that facilitates the interaction among various stakeholders, including graduate students, researchers, practitioners and teachers, policy-makers, administrators, and other people invested in language-related matters. These people can contribute to Multi-\u02bb\u014dlelo by submitting their own content, which will be peer-reviewed and posted on Multi-\u02bb\u014dlelo. Later, the content can be disseminated to the community and all practitioners more easily than traditional journals or other academic texts. Content can include original research findings, reviews or reactions to research, infographics, videos, podcasts, slides, and other media that centers around language learning, language teaching, and use. Although started in the Department of Second Language Studies, the project hopes to recruit content creators from other departments and eventually other institutions.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>October 24<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>The Advancement of Open Science in SLA: Current Trends<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Dustin Crowther, Assistant Professor, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>Recent years have seen an increased emphasis on open science within SLA (and applied linguistics more generally), a movement which is aimed \u201cat enhancing transparency in research methods, observation, data collection, data access, and communication of findings\u201d which in turn \u201cprovides important mechanisms for enhancing the validity, credibility, and reliability of scientific endeavors\u201d (Marsden, Morgan-Short, Trofimovich, &amp; Ellis, 2018, p. 310).<br \/>\nFor those looking to publish in major field journals such as Language Learning, Modern Language Journal, Studies in Second Language Acquisition, and TESOL Quarterly, it is unlikely that you will avoid reference to open science initiatives, including<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2022 making datasets and materials publicly available, such as through the IRIS Digital Repository or the Open Science Framework;<br \/>\n\u2022 providing accessible summaries, such as those published through OASIS;<br \/>\n\u2022 pursuing preregistered reports, which ensures transparency throughout the research process; and<br \/>\n\u2022 implementation of open science badges as a means to promote continued open science practices.<\/p>\n<p>I will provide a brief review of the benefits of pursuing open science, where we are today with regards to the aforementioned open science practices, and how we can begin\/continue to contribute with our own scholarly work.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>October 31<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>(via video-teleconference)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Susan Bobb, Associate Professor of Psychology, Gordon College, Wenham, MA<br \/>\nCo-Presenter: Kathrin Rothermich, Associate Professor, Communication Sciences &amp; Disorders, East Carolina University<\/p>\n<p>Immigrants and non-native speakers in the US face communicative challenges when interacting with native speakers in everyday life, for example at the workplace, in a healthcare setting, and in educational environments. One strategy frequently employed by native speakers to ensure smooth communication is speech accommodation in the form of foreigner-directed speech. According to sociolinguistic frameworks such as Communication Accommodation Theory, English native speakers modify their speech to meet the communicative needs of non-native speakers (Beebe &amp; Giles, 1984). However, when foreigner-directed speech is used inappropriately, it may lead to overaccommodation, which in turn can act counterproductively towards communicative goals and learning and may be perceived as disrespectful, condescending, or patronizing.<\/p>\n<p>To date, much of the research on foreigner directed speech toward non-native speakers has focused on its acoustic parameters, but few studies have examined how second language learners interpret it emotionally and pragmatically. In this talk, we present data from a series of experiments with adult English language learners, examining: 1) the communicative needs of non-native speakers, 2) the emergence of speech accommodation in natural interactions, as well as 3) the perception of speech accommodation by non-native speakers. We also consider the role of language proficiency and personality profiles as predictors for the effects of speech accommodation.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>November 7<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Laissez Faire Translanguaging in Two High School English Classes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Anna Mendoza, PhD Candidate, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>This linguistic ethnography aims to investigate what multilingual practices arise in high school English classrooms where teachers freely permit the use of languages other than English but do not explicitly teach students to use these languages as learning resources\u2014i.e., deliberate translanguaging pedagogy. Many K-12 teachers are convinced that students learn best when allowed to use their entire linguistic repertoires. However, they may not teach students to translanguage for various reasons, such as the belief that they will not be able to balance the needs of monolingual and multilingual students, classroom management issues when students speak languages apart from English, especially when the teacher doesn\u2019t understand all of them, and monolingual curricula and assessments. Therefore, letting students draw on other languages in whatever ways they feel they need to\u2014a laissez faire language policy\u2014may seem an appealing middle ground between \u201cEnglish only\u201d and deliberate translanguaging pedagogy.<\/p>\n<p>The teachers in this study, a Filipino-American man in his 20s and a Japanese-American woman in her 40s, are similar to many English teachers in the U.S. They do not react negatively when they hear languages other than English in class and encourage students to talk things through in these languages. Since they are not teaching in bilingual programs, they do not require students to produce bi\/multilingual artifacts showing that they are translanguaging to learn; however, an abundance of multilingual talk can be heard in their classrooms, because they do not wish to deprive students of the resource of their L1s, they value students\u2019 funds of knowledge, and they are multilingual and multicultural themselves. In their classrooms, I investigated the following questions:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">1. What are the different types of mixed language practices that emerge under a laissez faire language policy?<br \/>\n2. Why do some students reap the benefits of translanguaging more than others under such a policy?<br \/>\n3. What kinds of translanguaging practices appear to arise instinctively, and which do not seem to occur without deliberate pedagogical scaffolding?<\/p>\n<p>In other words, my study aims to capture how a laissez faire language policy interacts with students\u2019 beliefs about translanguaging, the classroom ecology, and larger societal discourses, impacting opportunities to learn.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>November 14<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Pathway into Graduate School: A discussion of the options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenters: Magdelena Petko and Victoria Lee, MA Students, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of this session is to familiarize undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty in the SLS department with the rich opportunities the SLS department provides for all its members.

In an interactive activity, we would like to draw on the audience to contribute to this session by connecting with each other to enable potential future MA and BA\/MA pathway students to interconnect with MA students and faculty. Lastly, we hope that everyone will walk away from the session with a widened perspective of the different paths our department has to offer for our diverse student population.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>November 21<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Multimodal Practices of Resistance: Refusing to drink in a Residential Home<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Presenter: Yu-Han Lin, PhD Student, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/p>\n<p>When encountering institutional resistance from care recipients, caregivers may struggle between preserving the rights of the care recipients while accomplishing health and safety-related tasks under the institutional agenda (Finlay et al., 2008). This work-in-progress examines the interactional organization of drinking: How do caregivers manage resistance from care recipients in drinking or finishing water or nutritional drinks, which multimodal practices are involved as a consequence, and what is the role of language in multilingual interaction? The data consisted of 48-hour video recordings in a multifunctional room at a private Taiwanese residential home. Participants included elderly care recipients, Taiwanese and Vietnamese caregivers, nurses, interns, volunteers, and visitors. The languages included L1 and L2 Mandarin Chinese (Mandarin) and Taiwanese Southern Min (Taiwanese). Guided by multimodal conversation analysis (CA) (Mondada, 2014, 2018, 2019), preliminary findings suggest that caregivers persist in their requests by recycling requests through talk or embodiment (e.g., moving a mug towards the care recipient), embedding the drinking practice in a game, negotiating with the care recipients (e.g., \u201cone more time\u201d in Mandarin), or complying with them in a dispreferred way (e.g., silence and leaving). Specifically, despite their language fluency, caregivers deploy the preferred language of their care recipients to defuse resistance and construct affiliation. This study shows the significance of multimodal CA in scrutinizing elderly care interaction and has practical implications for training caregivers in managing resistance. Care recipients with cognitive or physical deficiencies manifest their interactional competence through various semiotic resources. Moreover, observing language use in a \u201clarger theory of human interaction\u201d (Wagner, 2018) among participants, this study delineates the fluidity of language use despite limited knowledge of co-participant\u2019s language (Jansson et al., 2017; Lindholm, 2017). The larger goal lies in informing staff training in order to allow for better caregiving service quality, and ultimately the well-being of care recipients.<\/p>\n<h4><b>December 5<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b>Teach in Thailand: Informational Meeting About the Summer 2020 Practicum<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Presenter: Betsy Gilliland, Associate Professor, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have you wanted to get more experience teaching English for academic purposes for university students?

At the beginning of the talk, we present developments in this research topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, we present a study of vocabulary acquisition in learning Spanish as a foreign language. There is an increasing attention to vocabulary learning due to the rise of lexical approaches (Lewis, 1993, 1997; Nation, 2001; Thornbury, 2002; Laufer, 2005; Barcroft, 2015, among others). It is important to know of any specific demotivators related to vocabulary learning. For instance, Hu (2011) confirmed that students from Taiwan found vocabulary learning demotivating in her study because they considered themselves to be \u201cbad at memorizing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along the same vein as Arefinezhad and Golaghaei (2014) in Iran on demotivation in learning vocabulary, one of the presenters has performed a pilot study regarding Spanish as a foreign language. The results are presented as well as pedagogical implications. To conclude the presentation, future directions for further study on the topic of demotivation are given.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\n<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nAugust 29 Starting off on the Right Foot: Advising Session for New MA Students Presenter: Christina Higgins, Professor &amp; Graduate Chair, Second Language Studies, UH-M\u0101noa 1.
