Abstract

The sophisticated advance in digital technology, one of which is YouTube Go, has not specifically fully significantly affected the EFL learners’ English Listening enhancement and other required critical skills accompanying it. The fact is, to this day, YouTube has not yet become the most critical learning medium in the Listening Comprehension instructional program. Therefore, the study, whose paradigm employed qualitative research, aimed at diagnosing the benefits of taking YouTube Go as a major listening comprehension instructional resource. Personal journal, observation as a complete participant, and informal interviews were techniques for collecting the qualitative data. Organizing, interpreting, and conclusion drawing were ways of analyzing the data. Credibility and audibility were ensured to examine the data. The findings indicated that YouTube Go improves students’ linguistic inputs, vocabulary knowledge, productive skills, and debating skills. Besides, it develops the students’ appreciative, discriminative, comprehension, attentive, reflection, critical, evaluative, dialogic, relationship, empathetic, therapeutic, sympathetic listening skills. It also establishes the teacher-learners and students learners' social and interaction skills, learning skills, literacy skills, and life skills. It encourages teachers to assess the students’ knowledge and skills authentically. In conclusion, YouTube Go extensively enhances the students’ language skills, listening skills, social skills, and social learning process.

Abstract

Not only are quality and price important features for products, but environmental awareness or social commitment has a critical function in convincing target audiences in buying the products. Therefore, the present study takes into account the language used in the advertisements for herbal medicines in Tehran, Iran. The researcher considers critical discourse analysis (CDA) as the theoretical framework and empirical grounding for the advertisements of herbal medicines. To this end, using a qualitative approach, the data are collected from the words, phrases, clauses, and sentences of the advertisements through a questionnaire in which 45 participants were involved. The researcher used Fairclough’s (1992) three dimension framework for the investigation of the advertisements in the cases of textual features, discursive features, and social features. The investigation displays the results of the language used in the advertisement for this study. Findings from the study point to the fact that there is a close relationship between the advertisement discourse and the sale of these products. Considering the social practices, the language in the advertisement has control or power over people. Moreover, the advertisement, not the product per se is the selling point and has control or power over the target audience. The findings of this study can contribute in other areas and offer some implications in the research considering the discourse analysis of advertisements.

Abstract

Cooperative learning is one of the most effective learning methods that has been widely used in higher education. In the language classroom, it can develop transferable skills and encourage students to use the language. The effectiveness has been argued in numerous of literature. However, not many are concerned about how students feel about being involved in a group learning process. Therefore, this article reviews the literature on cooperative learning in the English language classroom. The study aimed to seek the students' views regarding their experiences on group work both in online and offline settings. Based on the findings, the majority of the students who experienced group work online and offline have a positive perception. Utilizing a cooperative learning strategy may benefit students in various ways, including increased self-confidence and motivation, a more student-centered environment, and taking responsibility. In addition, online group work is considered a flexible learning strategy (i.e., time and place schedule management) and easy access to various teaching materials in online settings. Regardless of the benefits, the students who perceived group work negatively were in online settings due to internet connection issues, less group work experience, and unfamiliar with the application and software. Therefore, this study benefits students, academicians, and policymakers.
