Abstract:learning. This important problem in daily instruction has produced numerous research activities focusing on conditions and consequences of student engagement. However, these activities have led to a complex aspects of student engagement based on a review of literature. Findings from the review have been used to formulate 15 instructional strategies as part of a hierarchically organized instructional design approach for incorporating multidimensional engagement into elements of learning (i.e., learning material… Show more
“…Motivational engagement is about the depth of stimulation to actively deal with information processes and products while acquiring knowledge and skills regarding language learning (Asleitner, 2018). Language learning is stimulated differently by both external and distant internal and close factors and mechanisms (Cerasoli et al, 2014).…”

Language teachers and instructors should always consider how to successfully develop new curricula. A medium-sized university in Korea launched a new liberal arts course for freshmen. A language instructor conducted a need analysis to understand the needs of college students to develop a new curriculum of the assigned course. The purpose of this study is to examine the needs of Korean university students who learn English to develop new curriculum and instruction reflecting learner needs accordingly. Data were collected through interviews and survey questionnaires. The qualitative data of the interview went through a thematic analysis process, and the quantitative data of the survey were analysed through statistical tests. As a result, various perspectives of students were revealed. First, this study showed that competency-based language instruction is essential for learners’ language development. Second, skill integration was needed to improve language skills. Third, the students expected constructive feedback from the instructor on their English grammar and vocabulary use. This study presents the significance of performing needs analysis and suggests that language teachers should consider it for their professional development and growth in higher education.

“…Promoting student learning rather than grading is the first priority of AfL; this is achieved by helping students reflect on what they know and what they can do, then use this understanding to identify gaps in their knowledge, connect concepts, and face new problems (van Dinther et al, 2015). AfL is a multi-dimensional vision of assessment that conceives cognitive, emotional, affective and social aspects as integral elements of the learning process, and seeks to make visible students' thinking and reasoning skills using a variety of tools (Astleitner, 2018). Two of the most widely used tools for formative assessment are e-portfolios and case-based assessment.…”

Remembering, Reflecting, Reframing course. This analysis is valuable because it allows us to understand the aspects of the model that are significant for the students in the long term, and to discover and interrogate the acquisition and transfer of skills useful for the students' personal and professional lives beyond the academy.
“…The program contained variety of topics, situations and discussions designed for developing oral communication skills and self-efficacy. They were suitable for the fourth students enrolled in English section at Benha Faculty of Education, Egypt such as; Bandura (1997); Ali (2010) ; Barker (2010) ; Hew (2015) ; Hew (2016) ; Alsowat (2016); AlSaleem (2018) and Astleitner (2018).…”

“… Synthesis: developing new ideas or products in relation to elements of learning (such as hypothesizing, planning, designing). Astleitner (2018) clarifies that motivational engagement is about the depth of stimulation for actively dealing with information processes and products during the acquisition of knowledge and skills. Depth of stimulation ranges from (low) external (e.g., based on attentional cues) to (high) internal (e.g., based on personal interest).…”
The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of using multidimensional engagement instructional approach based on communication technology devices in developing student teachers' EFL oral communication skills and self-efficacy. The study design was a mixed research methodology. It combined both quantitative and qualitative methods of collecting data. The participants of the study were fifty (N= 50) students enrolled in fourth year English section at Faculty of Education, Benha University, Egypt. They were tested before and after the treatment. They were taught through using a multidimensional engagement instructional approach based on communication technology devices. The instruments of the study included an EFL oral communication skills test, an EFL oral communication skills rubric, a self-efficacy scale, and a semi-structured interview. The results revealed a statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the study participants in the pre and post administrations of EFL oral communication skills test and self-efficacy scale in favor of the post administration. These results were ascribed to the multidimensional engagement instructional approach based on communication technology devices.
