Learners’ IDs are greatly affected by stimuli coming from their micro- and macro-environment. Research has pointed out that learners’ IDs are constantly interacting with one another and the environment; therefore, they should not be examined in isolation but as a complex and dynamic system (CDS) that changes over time and in response to environmental stimuli. With the introduction of online education, learners’ learning environment drastically changed, triggering uncharted psychological responses in them. This mixed methods study drawing on complex dynamic systems theory (CDST) examines the changes in 27 English teacher trainees’ motivation, anxiety, and willingness to communicate (WTC) in English in online education. First, the participants’ answers to a qualitative questionnaire were analyzed using content analysis to detect emerging themes and subtle details. Then, descriptive statistics was employed to compute frequencies characterizing behavioral patterns. Finally, qualitative data were used again to explain the numerical results. The findings of the study point out unfavorable psychological states characterizing leaner behaviors in online education, the challenges of online learning, and a distinction between display and real communication and WTC. Furthermore, new types of anxiety that did not emerge in offline education were detected such as technology anxiety, camera and microphone anxiety, fatigue anxiety, personal interaction deprivation, invasion of privacy, lack of feedback from peers, and lack of communicative success.

While technology-mediated tasks are thought to offer many possibilities for teaching and assessing second language (L2) pragmatics, their effectiveness – especially those facilitated by an AI agent (artificial intelligence agent) – remains to be explored. This study investigated how 47 tertiary-level learners of English as a second language (ESL) performed on an oral interactive task that required them to make requests to their boss in two distinct modalities. Each participant completed the same task with a fully automated AI agent and with a human interlocutor in a face-to-face format. Findings showed that both modalities elicited language use relevant to the pragmatics target. However, fully automated interactions were found to be more transactional, while face-to-face interactions were more functionally oriented (e.g. more frequent/varied supportive moves). Although fully automated interactive tasks may be useful for eliciting requests, replicating human-to-human interactions remains a challenge.

Traditionally operating an exclusively paper-based testing (PBT) system, the Educational Authority launched a project comparing (a) the results and (b) the success rates between the two delivery modes. In the quantitative analysis, we found significant differences between the delivery modes. This result was supported by the verbal data from interviews with exam officers. Summary State-accredited foreign language testing in Hungary is an administrative procedure primarily regulated by Government Decree 137 / 2008. During the COVID pandemic in 2020, the Decree was modified to accommodate CBT including internet-based testing (iBT) so that candidates could take the language tests required for entrance examinations and university degrees. While the introduction of CBT was a necessary and adequate step to ensure the smooth operation of language testing, it remained equally important to maintain the previously established quality standards. Therefore, the Educational Authority together with the Hungarian Accreditation Board for Foreign Language Examinations launched a mixed-methods study to investigate the effect of the introduction of CBT on test results and pass rates. In the quantitative analysis, we processed the data from the years 2018 through 2022 (N = 493,301). Using t-tests and ANOVA, we found that while differences existed both between delivery modes and years of test administration, they were explained by changes in language policy rather than the advent of CBT. In the qualitative inquiry, the four most popular exam offices were interviewed about their views on CBT. Exam office managers believed that success on language tests was a function of mastery and preparation rather than delivery mode. LA - English DB - MTMT ER -
