Mr. Tumbles’ Maya and the Multiplicity of Personas: Leveraging Illusion and Reality in Educational Game Design for SEN Language Learners

Educational research for Special Educational Needs (SEN) students has increasingly recognised the necessity for tailored approaches that accommodate diverse learning needs. Despite advancements, there remains a significant gap in the development of digital interventions, particularly video games, that cater to the language acquisition and communicative needs of SEN learners. This study explores how psychological paradigms from the popular children's television show ‘Mr. Tumble’ (made specifically for children with special educational needs) can inform the creation of language learning video games. By analysing the use of ‘Makaton’ a multimodal communication tool that combines signs, symbols, and speech the study highlights the potential of integrating similar techniques into game design to enhance accessibility and engagement for SEN learners. The philosophical understanding of Maya, which emphasises the illusory nature of multiplicity, serves as a theoretical framework to understand how a single character can embody multiple roles within a game, providing a consistent yet diverse learning experience. This approach not only aids in language comprehension but also fosters emotional and social development through relatable Non-Player Characters (NPCs) designed to interact meaningfully with learners. The study posits that incorporating these elements can create immersive, emotionally resonant educational experiences and the development of parasocial relationship between the learner and the digital intervention, that better meet the needs of SEN students, ultimately leading to more inclusive and effective language learning environments. Children simultaneously navigate multiple roles and perspectives, each reflecting a different aspect of reality in make-believe play. The critical importance of integrating this cognitive theoretical framework similar to that into the design of NPCs in educational video games is highlighted in this research. The paper argues that the paradigms of ‘multiplicity of mirrors’, when effectively incorporated into NPC design, can reflect different aspects of language, culture, and social interaction, offering learners a more immersive and multifaceted learning experience.

Making sense of a new language: authenticity and semiotics in additional language learning

Abstract The concept of authenticity has received much discussion in applied linguistics and educational studies. Valuable insights have been gained into how authenticity is problematised in language teaching and how to improve the situation by engaging learners with better-designed materials and activities. These achievements notwithstanding, empirical evidence remains insufficient to understand learners’ meaning-making endeavours in real-life learning scenarios. The current study attempts to examine authenticity in additional language learning from a semiotic perspective, which may shed new light on the complex cognitive process of beginner learners’ first encounter with a new language and how this process could be motivated and facilitated by teachers in a classroom setting. Evidence of semiotic articulation and production of authenticity from a low-pressure Spanish classroom is analysed focussing on cultural authenticity, interactive authenticity and authenticity of behaviour and engagement. The evidence is discussed to find how semiotic resources in combination with lived experiences may help learners’ comprehension and appreciation of the target language and its culture. These findings reveal the relevance and value of semiotic approaches to language teaching research and provide practical implications for exposing pre-tertiary young learners to languages other than English for more diverse and extensive learning experiences.

Research on Project-Based Teaching Strategies for the Chinese Curriculum of International Baccalaureate (IB) based on the SAMR Model

In the digital era, there have been significant changes in international students’ Chinese language learning patterns and methods. The integration of information technology and project-based teaching not only promotes the demand for applications and learning media but also provides new opportunities to enhance student’s critical thinking abilities. However, project-based teaching of information technology and Chinese is prone to the misconception of seeking the most suitable application or learning medium for verification. The SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefinition) model is an educational model based on Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives for “creative” teaching. This information technology-integrated teaching method provides students with diverse learning experiences. The Chinese language course of the International Baccalaureate (IB) aims to cultivate students’ profound understanding of literature, language, and culture by providing a critical exploration learning experience in the field of language and literature. It encourages students to explore similarities and differences between different cultures, delve into topics or works of interest, and conduct independent language and literature research projects. The project-based learning approach helps students meet their further academic research and personal growth skills needs, cultivating them as language users and lifelong learners who are willing to explore and have critical thinking skills. The application exploration of the SAMR model in project-based teaching proposes relevant suggestions for the integration of information technology and Chinese teaching in the digital era and provides some new focus points for effective strategies and paths of IB Chinese teaching: encouraging teachers to improve students’ skills in collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking (4C) through advanced teaching at four different levels of SAMR model, flexible use of teaching rounds, creation of GRASPS teaching evaluation scenarios, and design of conceptual driving tasks, in order to achieve the improvement of language and literature construction and application abilities, and further promote the collaboration and autonomy of IB Chinese project-based learning process.

‘I do plan to do that in the future, just not the near future’: rural professional experience programs and pre-service teacher graduate destination preferences

AbstractThis study examines pre-service teachers (PSTs) from two Australian universities regarding their involvement in rural professional experience (PE) placements and their potential impact on future career choices. The objective was to gain insight into the diverse teaching and learning experiences PSTs had during their rural PE, and what impact these had on their interest in working in country schools. This paper focuses on findings from urban and rural-based PSTs who undertook rural, regional and remote PE. PSTs reported that these experiences helped them develop rewarding pedagogical approaches and contributed to significant personal and professional growth. They reflected that their growth as a teacher arose from encountering diverse student cohorts, the school cultures they experienced, and the relationships they formed within the school community. However, despite these positive aspects, the PSTs’ intentions to pursue employment in rural areas remained diverse and personal. This suggests that while rural PE was highly valued, it was not sufficient to override individual circumstances and preferences when considering rural employment. It also seemed that the experiences may have inadvertently attracted PSTs open to change and adventure who utilised the support of rural mentors and communities, only to ultimately teach in metropolitan schools.
