A Systematic Review of Empirical Mobile-Assisted Pronunciation Studies through a Perception–Production Lens

Languages
The communicative approach to language learning, a teaching method commonly used in second language (L2) classrooms, places little to no emphasis on pronunciation training.

Integrating Form and Meaning in L2 Pronunciation Instruction

TESL Canada Journal, 2009
One of the central challenges of ESL teaching is striking the right balance between form and meaning. In pronunciation pedagogy, this challenge is compounded because repetitive practice, which has been shown to enhance phonological acquisition and promote fluency, is widely viewed as being incompatible with communicative principles.

Ion‐Reconfigurable “N”‐Shaped Antiambipolar Behavior in Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A unique N‐shaped negative differential transconductance (NDT) characteristics is demonstrated in single‐polymer organic electrochemical transistors through a sequential doping–redox–doping process driven by iodide ions. This redox‐driven mechanism enables low‐voltage, ion‐controlled reconfigurability and tunable current modulation, allowing seamless ...

Vowel Characteristics in the Assessment of L2 English Pronunciation

Interspeech 2016, 2016
There is considerable need to utilise linguistically meaningful measures of second language (L2) proficiency that are based on perceptual cues used by humans to assess pronunciation. Previous research on non-native acquisition of vowel systems suggests a strong link between vowel production accuracy and speech intelligibility. It is well known that the

Metamaterial Antennas Enhance MRI of the Eye and Occipital Brain

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A radiofrequency antenna platform comprising planar and bend configurations is developed, incorporating structurally integrated epsilon‐negative metamaterial unit cells to enhance MRI. These antennas enable high‐resolution in vivo human MRI of the eye, orbit, and occipital brain. Comprehensive validation, including simulations, phantom experiments, SAR,

Is L2 pronunciation affected by increased task complexity in pronunciation-unfocused speaking tasks?

Studies in Second Language Acquisition
AbstractThis study examines the effects of task complexity on second language (L2) pronunciation accuracy and global pronunciation measures in pronunciation-unfocused tasks and assesses the relationship between acoustic and listener-based pronunciation measures.
