This presentation was given by two of my SLS600 classmates and I as a part of our course project in FALL 2020. You can click on the link to visit our website to learn more about many interesting aspects of bilingualism from a professional perspective.
This is a conference presentation for a pilot study conducted in FALL 2020 for SLS660 (Sociolinguistics). This conference presentation was very useful in giving me the opportunity to share what I found out from the literature and to receive meaningful and constructive feedback from my professor and peers.
After receiving feedback from the conference presentation, I went through a drafting and adjusting process. The end product is the research paper that investigates second language writers' identity construction. The conference was highly productive since from there the research evolved to be more specific.
This research proposal was written with my potential future scholarly paper in mind in FALL 2020 for SLS600 (Introduction to SLS). After conducting the pilot study in SLS660, I was able to identify some of its aspects that could be improved. This project has given me the opportunity to revise the existing research design to further investigate the issues of interest.
This paper was written for SLS 302 (Second Language Learning) in the FALL 2020 semester as the final group research project with Annika Jenkins, the co-author. For this project, we were asked to conduct a mini-research observing a language learner in action making connections with various second language acquisition theories and hypotheses. Special thanks go to Beauty, the collaborating language learner for her honesty and flexibility demonstrated throughout the entire period of this study.
This paper was written for SLT 103 (Second Language Teaching) in the SPRING 2018 semester as the final ethnographic research project. For this project, I was asked to conduct an ethnographic research study observing a language classroom focusing on teacher behaviors and how those behaviors affect language learners. In this study, my focus was on what specific teacher behaviors affect student engagement in language learning. Special gratitude goes to Dr. Soo Ah Yuen, the instructor of KOR 102 at the time of this study, for her guidance and collaboration in this project.
