Nation claims that “words are the building blocks of a language since they label objects, actions, ideas without which people cannot convey the intended meaning.” (Zahedi and Abdi, 2012, p.2273). Geluso and Yamaguchi (2014, p. 227) argued that DDL is “firmly grounded in cognitive linguistic theory as learners analyze masses of input in a quest to become more familiar with structural regularities via inductive means.” Using this method, learners
Blended Learning environment has been in the changing trends with the mode of teaching and learning in present higher education system. The empirical research states that in online environment, students self-regulate themselves in order to achieve better outcomes. Recent quantitative studies highlight the role of learners in the online course format as they required high self-regulation in order to achieve cognition, but there are limited reports that investigate the role of learners in Blended Learning
One of the main factors which can have considerable effect on the development of reflective practice on teachers and students is the nature of instruction, which can partly be related to teachers, students, and an institution. It either enhances or hinders this development depending on its actual practice by teachers and students and the availability of resources and facilities. Concerning this, the results from the questionnaire, interviews, and classroom observations were found to show that teachers

It would seem that the majority of people would consider successful learning to be achieved when one has a good grade - being an “A” or a “B” typically. However, it would also appear that even those students who meet the goals of successful learning in this way can forget the information or skills that they were tested over and practiced.

technology, engineering and mathematics) specialties which are rapidly developing. In this article, researchers present a new form of technology-enhanced learning called: Immersive simulation. This technology is based on collaborative inquiry and knowledge communities and follows the constructivist learning strategy. It provides the students with opportunities to improve their skills efficiently by groups and to create a culture of inquiry. But some limitations underlie this strategy because
1987). Multiculturalism, the embrace of difference cultures, and the ability to communicate in an international context constitute the broad aim of ΔΕΠΠΣ. According to Clark (1987), this notion coincides with one of Reconstructionism’s tenets that students should face the demands of communicative instances, where interlocutors originate from different ethnic groups. The English language has become the lingua franca that serves as a medium between individuals originating from different cultural or linguistic
