Artificial Intelligence for Language Learning: A Systematic Review of its Design, Theoretical Foundations, Implementation, and Impact

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the use of AI technologies (e.g., chatbots and automated writing evaluations (AWE)) has gained considerable attention in language learning fields in recent years, how AI technologies have been designed and implemented in language learning education, as well as their effectiveness, is understudied.

Comparing the Effects of Collaborative and Independent Writing on EFL Learners’ Individual Writing Performance: An Intervention Study

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collaborative writing has attracted increasing attention in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction due to its potential to enhance learners’ writing competence. However, few studies have examined the comparative effects of collaborative versus independent writing on EFL learners’ individual performance, especially in higher‐order ...

Powerful representation of the poor? German welfare associations' narrative advocacy during COVID‐19

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic sparked unprecedented experimentation in the German social assistance system, leading to changes previously considered impracticable by policymakers. This included a sanctions moratorium, easier access to benefits, and temporary cash transfers, all of which were advocated by welfare associations—key organized interests ...

Hierarchical Structured TiO2/Boron‐Doped Diamond for Efficient Photo‐Electrocatalytic Degradation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The discharge of refractory organic dye wastewater poses a significant threat to the ecological environment, necessitating the development of efficient treatment technologies. Herein, a uniform TiO2 array (TiO2‐AR) electrode is fabricated using a combination of magnetron sputtering and a mask plate process with a boron‐doped diamond (BDD ...

Regulating the Boron Content to Suppress Stress‐Relief Cracking in the Coarse‐Grained Heat‐Affected Zone of 7CrMoVTiB10.10 Heat‐Resistant Alloy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates a new strategy for modifying the boron content to address stress‐relief cracking (SRC) in the 7CrMoVTiB10.10 alloy. First, coarse‐grained heat‐affected zone (CGHAZ) specimens with different boron contents were prepared via simulated welding thermal cycles.

Improving the Electrochemical Properties of SiOx/Graphite Anode for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries by Ultrathin Lithium Film Prelithiation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐capacity SiOx/graphite (SiO/G) anodes offer great potential for advancing lithium‐ion battery technology; however, their practical application is limited by low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) and rapid capacity decay. These challenges primarily arise from unstable phase transitions and the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

Adaptive Crystallization of NiFe‐MIL‐55 Nanorods: Atomically Precise Shape Control and Dual‐Function Electrocatalytic Performance

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT NiFe‐based MIL‐55 metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) face challenges in achieving atomically precise composition and reliable methods for uniform growth. This study addresses these challenges by applying a slow evaporation crystallization technique to crude colloidal MIL‐55 products from hydrothermal synthesis, resulting in highly uniform ...

Designing High‐Strength and High‐Ductility Cast Mg–Zn–Al–Mn–Sn Alloys via τ‐Mg32(Al,Zn)49 Phase Tuning and Twin Boundary Toughening Optimisation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Achieving a simultaneous enhancement of strength and ductility remains a critical bottleneck for the large‐scale and cost‐effective engineering application of magnesium alloys. In this work, guided by first‐principles calculations, we tailored the τ‐Mg32(Al,Zn)49 phase and optimised twin boundary, thereby designing and successfully ...

Deep Learning–Driven Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering–Lateral Flow Immunoassay With Au Nanostars for High‐Accuracy Respiratory Virus Detection

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The high accuracy in surface‐enhanced Raman scattering‐lateral flow immunoassays (SERS–LFIAs) is critical for reliable point‐of‐care testing (POCT) in clinical diagnostics. Conventional approaches are often affected by sampling variability and uneven distribution of immunoprobes, leading to unreliable signal fluctuations.
