Transitioning From L1 Medium of Instruction to L2 English Medium Instruction: The Role of Translanguaging in Contributing to EFL Students’ Language Learning Motivation

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on English‐Medium‐Instruction (EMI) highlights inadequate support for students transitioning from L1‐medium‐instruction to EMI. To date, little research has focused on how L2 students’ adaptation to an EMI environment influences their L2 learning motivation (LLM).

Language Mindset and Discipline Mindset Both Matter: Exploring the Effect of Growth Mindset on Motivation and Willingness to Communicate in EMI Higher Education

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In English medium instruction (EMI), students face cognitive and emotional demands in second language (L2) communication, which may hamper their motivation and willingness to communicate (WTC). Adopting a mixed‐methods design, this study explores how growth mindsets affected student motivation (e.g., ideal L2 self and ideal disciplinary self ...

Toward Hybrid Studio‐Based Learning Environments: A Sociomaterial Exploration of Design Education

International Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how hybrid learning (HL) can be successfully integrated into the practice‐based visual communication design (VCD) curriculum at Stellenbosch University (SU), South Africa, to enhance future teaching, learning, and curriculum renewal. This was approached from a sociomaterial perspective.

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.
