摘要:
PURPOSE: Phonetic training has been found to be an effective way on second language (L2) learning, but the evidence is not conclusive regarding the effectiveness of different instructional approaches and possible interactions between language learners, training features, and outcome measures. This study aims to meta-analyze existing studies to provide an accurate estimate of the overall effect and investigate factors that may moderate its effectiveness. METHOD: We conducted a systematic search in major databases, identified seven potential moderators, and conducted a random-effects model meta-analysis for each variable. RESULTS: A comprehensive literature search yielded 65 primary studies that involved 2,793 L2 learners, generating 223 effect sizes for between-groups contrasts. Results showed that phonetic training had a large positive effect on the enhancement of L2 phonetic competence, d = 0.762. Subsequent moderator analyses revealed that perceptual training showed a larger mean effect size compared to production training and combined training; phonetic training at the high school level exhibited the largest mean effect size among all educational levels; phonetic training, either perceptual training or production training, had a greater impact on improving learners' perception competence than production competence; and outcome measured by identification tasks generated the largest effect, followed by the combination of discrimination and identification tasks, subjective perception judgment, and discrimination tasks, while objective acoustic measurement yielded the smallest effect size. CONCLUSIONS: Our study provided a quantitative synthesis of studies investigating the efficacy of L2 phonetic training and examined various moderating variables, which indicated the heterogeneity and limitations of research on this topic. The results highlighted the need for further investigation of the potential factors of L2 phonetic training and the relationship between perception and production.
摘要:
Urban rail transit plays a significant role in promoting urban sustainable development. Conducting a comprehensive evaluation of urban rail transit is crucial for the future development of urban rail transit systems. This study focuses on the various factors influencing the development of urban rail transit. Based on the Driving force-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) model, an evaluation framework comprising 19 indicators was established. The logical relationships and directions of influence among these indicators were verified using the Structural Equation model (SEM). Then, the contribution rates of each indicator to the development of urban rail transit were calculated using the Entropy Weighted TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution) model. Finally, the obstacles degree model was employed to uncover the facilitators and obstacles in the development of urban rail transit. The results showed that: (1) In China, cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen exhibit notably advanced development in urban rail transit compared to other cities. (2) The DPSIR-Entropy-TOPSIS model identifies four distinct modes of rail transit development, each associated with specific influencing factors. (3) Through obstacle degree diagnostics, the analysis reveals the following ranking of obstructive impacts for indicators: social factors > urban rail operational factors > economic factors > infrastructure factors > investment factors > citizen experience factors > other factors. Notably, the obstructive effects of economic, social, and investment factors have shown annual increases. Our findings offer policy recommendations for decision-makers from three key perspectives: improving subsidy and management efficiency, enhancing the quality of urban rail transit for public benefit, and maximizing the economic benefits derived from urban rail transit.

摘要:
Imagined identity, which opens up a variety of future possibilities for language learners, has been theorized from seemingly incompatible psychological and sociological perspectives in applied linguistics. Researchers have thus appealed for a transdisciplinary theoretical combination of these perspectives for a more nuanced understanding of language learning in context. This article makes the case for a synergistic theoretical framework of investment and motivation to theorize the idiosyncratic relationship between individuals' imagined identity and language learning behavior. Empirical findings from a multiple-case study conducted in Yunnan, in the south-western corner of China, are presented to demonstrate how this framework enables a nuanced analysis of individuals' language learning. Findings suggest that the interconnectedness of imagined identity, motivation, and investment is informed by both learner agency and contexts. This paper proposes that learners' development of imagined identities and ways of investing in learning could be individually different, even under similar circumstances, which indicates the need for personalized teaching to improve learning outcomes. This synergistic framework thus provides implications for pedagogical practices and a need for personalized teaching.

摘要:
Abstract: As a representative window to collect, display, publicize and study the splendid material and cultural heritage of the nation, the museum is one of the important media to show the national and regional cultures to the public, give play to the function of humanities exchange and cultural influence, and play an important role in educating the public in moral and cultural literacy. Hunan Museum is the largest historical and artistic museum in Hunan Province, which undertakes the important task of spreading HuXiang culture (culture originated in Hunan) to the outside world. Based on the three characteristics of the moral space theory, namely, boundedness, restriction and relative stability, this paper analyzes the English version of Hunan Museum’s cultural heritage texts, discusses the translation strategies of the HuXiang culture represented by Hunan Museum, and then constructs a moral space for the external exchange of HuXiang culture, so that more westerners feel the spiritual strength of it.
摘要:
This study aims to investigate gender and regional differences in technological pedagogical readiness (TPR) among primary mathematics teachers in China during the post-pandemic era. Utilizing a web-based questionnaire, data were collected from 601 teachers across six provinces, representing eastern and western regions. The TPR scale, encompassing 11 components, was used to measure teachers' TPR to integrate digital technologies into their teaching practices. Results from the Mann-Whitney U test revealed significant gender differences, with male teachers reporting higher levels of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), technological content knowledge (TCK), and technological knowledge (TK), while female teachers scored higher on students' technology literacy (STL), parental and community involvement (PCI), and educational challenges (EC). This indicates different perspectives and preferences between male and female teachers in TPR. Additionally, regional disparities were observed, with eastern teachers demonstrating significantly greater confidence and capability in technology integration across 11 TPR components compared to their western counterparts. These findings underscore the digital divide in China's primary mathematics education, highlighting the need for targeted professional development and support strategies to address gender-specific needs and regional disparities. The study provides insights for policymakers and educators to enhance TPR and promote equitable technology integration in primary mathematics education.
