functional MRI study on the language stress perception in a foreign language
<p>fMRI dataset of 91 participants during a linguistic task about language stress perception in a foreign language.</p> <p>Participants listened to pairs of words in a foreign language (Spanish) and had to indicate if the words were the same or different. The different pairs differed either by the stress pattern, or by the final vowel.</p> <p>This dataset was divided into two groups: 51 participants with French as native language and 40 with Swiss-German as native language. None of the participants had knowledge of Spanish.</p> <p>This repository respects the BIDS standard (<a href="https://bids.neuroimaging.io/">https://bids.neuroimaging.io/</a>), including all the raw data (func, fmap, anat) and metadata in order to reproduce the processing.</p> <p>These data have been used in two papers:</p> <p>S. Schwab, M. Mouthon, L.B. Jost, J. Salvadori, I. Yakoub, E. Ferreira da Silva, N. Giroud, B. Perriard and J.M. Annoni, Neural correlates of lexical stress processing in a foreign free-stress language; Brain and Behavior (2023)</p> <p>L. Rogenmoser, M. Mouthon, F. Etter, J. Kamber, J.M. Annoni and S.

Estonian National Bibliography - foreign language books
A subset of works in other languages than Estonian from the Estonian national bibliography. The Estonian national bibliography (Eesti rahvusbibliograafia - ERB) covers publications in all languages in Estonia and abroad, regardless of the medium and date of publication. The database of the national bibliography is constantly updated with newly published works. A separate part of the national bibliography is the Estonica collection, which includes both publications in foreign languages by Estonian authors and publications about Estonia and Estonians published abroad. The database is managed by the National Library of Estonia, which manages the Estonian national bibliography in accordance with the relevant laws.

Embodiment of action-related language in the native and a late foreign language – An fMRI-study
<p>Theories of embodied cognition postulate that language processing activates similar sensory-motor structures as<br> when interacting with the environment. Only little is known about the neural substrate of embodiment in a<br> foreign language (L2) as compared to the mother tongue (L1). In this fMRI study, we investigated embodiment of<br> motor and non-motor action verbs in L1 and L2 including 31 late bilinguals. Half had German as L1 and French as<br> L2, and the other half vice-versa. We collapsed across languages to avoid the confound between language and<br> order of language acquisition. Region of interest analyses showed stronger activation in motor regions during L2<br> than during L1 processing, independently of the motor-relatedness of the verbs. Moreover, a stronger involvement<br> of motor regions for motor-related as compared to non-motor-related verbs, similarly for L1 and L2, was<br> found. Overall, the similarity between L1 and L2 embodiment seems to depend on individual and contextual<br> factors.</p>
"I made the recording because Iam an amateur recording engineer and also work for a radio station. At the time, Iwas researching for a religious programme, for the radio and by pure chance and good luck, Iwas in the centre of York at the time the street preacher was there. Iam building up a personal library of 'ambient sounds' to use on various radio shows as 'sound effects'. The recording was taken outside St Helen's Church in St Helen's Square, in the centre of York. There was a fairly large crowd walking about, shopping. It was a Saturday. Some people were standing and listening to the man, some were mocking him, others didn't even notice. It was a sunny day, with a slight wind. St Helen's square is a large 'meeting place' for people with seats, flowers and usually musicians. I live in the centre of York and hear a lot of very interesting sounds there, everything from busking musicians, to many foreign languages, church bells, animals and much more. Ireally liked the recording of the preacher as it is quite clear that he passionately believes what he is saying. He was unaware that Iwas recording him. Iwish Ihad captured his whole sermon. He, and other members of his church visit the centre of York quite often, and preach there. Idon't know the name of his church." [Jools/vedas]19 in Collecting Sounds.

SEEFLEX - The Corpus of Secondary English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Exams
<blockquote> <p>This version of the corpus may have been superseded by the <a href="https://github.com/tobib92/SEEFLEX/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GitHub repository</a></p> </blockquote> <p> </p> <p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>This report presents the <em>Corpus of Secondary School English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Exams (SEEFLEX)</em>. In Germany, upper secondary school EFL exams feature recurring tasks targeting diverse text types. The <em>SEEFLEX</em> was developed to investigate how students complete these tasks linguistically and whether they meet the curricular requirements. The corpus contains data from 575 transcribed authentic curriculum-based examinations (n<sub>texts</sub> = 1979, total = ~625.000 words). The metadata include standardized receptive vocabulary assessments, a cognition scale, the participants’ reading habits, social background, and their language experience and proficiency. Extensive xml mark-up was added to investigate the influence of inter alia source material, structural text features, and selected language mistakes. An online repository provides full-text access as well as ample additional resources, including an interactive Shiny application to investigate register variation in the corpus.</p>
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL)
<p>The qualitative mixed-method intervention study, grounded in content analysis and comparative methodology, reveals that incorporating SDGs into teacher training programmes is key since there is a significant direct impact on society. The objective was firstly to create an SDG-based didactic proposal including inquiry-based learning as its pedagogical approach for developing critical thinking. Secondly, to study its effect on participants regarding raising awareness of SDGs and their projection to society as future teachers.</p>

THE METHODOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVING THE SPEECH COMPETENCE OF FUTURE FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHERS
<p>This article provides a methodological description of how to improve the speech competence of future foreign language teachers. Effective communication skills are crucial for language instructors, and speech competence plays a vital role in facilitating comprehension, modeling correct pronunciation, and creating an engaging learning environment. The article emphasizes the importance of pronunciation, intonation, fluency, and communicative skills in language teaching. It explores various methodologies for enhancing speech competence, including language immersion, pronunciation practice, technology integration, and cultural competence development. The article also highlights the significance of continuous professional development, peer collaboration, and assessment and feedback in the improvement process. By following these methodological approaches, future foreign language teachers can enhance their speech competence, leading to more effective language instruction and enhanced learning outcomes for their students.</p>
