Academic processes change through technological advances and play an important role in students at higher institutes, this is the focus of the proposal of the academic dossier as a didactic strategy to promote critical reading in pedagogy students of national languages and foreigners, from the ULEAM Chone Extension. The academic dossier is used as an alternative to archive information downloaded from the web and convert it into the innovation manual to motivate reading and individual learning that is taken as an example to follow for those who have collective synergy, therefore the objective is to determine the importance of the academic dossier as a didactic strategy for critical reading in pedagogy students of national and foreign languages of the ULEAM Chone Extension. The work is descriptive and adjusts to the dependent and independent variables. The methodology was quantitative in approach since the survey was applied to teachers and students of the program and a bibliographic and descriptive review was carried out to support the theoretical bases of the two variables proposed.

This study is qualitative descriptive research that examines the English speech act verb “order” in English. The purpose of this study is to analyse the argument structure and its role in semantics. The type of data used in this study is secondary data sourced from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA). The research instrument utilized in this study is a human instrument supported by hardware such as a computer, along with software such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel, as well as note-taking tools like pen and paper. Data for this study was collected using the corpus linguistics method and observation methods with note-taking techniques. The data were analysed by using the macro role theory by van Vallin & Lapolla (1997). The study results indicate that the verb "order" can have two arguments, the actor argument and the undergoer argument, and each argument can have its semantic role. The actor argument can entail the semantic role of the agent, while the undergoer argument can entail the semantic role of the theme.
本研究是一项定性描述性研究，考察英语中的言语行为动词 "order"。本研究的目的是分析论证结构及其在语义学中的作用。本研究使用的数据类型是来自当代美国英语语料库（COCA）的二手数据。本研究使用的研究工具是由计算机等硬件支持的人工工具，以及 Microsoft Word 和 Microsoft Excel 等软件和纸笔等笔记工具。本研究使用语料库语言学方法和观察法以及笔记技术收集数据。数据分析采用了 van Vallin 和 Lapolla（1997 年）的宏观角色理论。研究结果表明，动词 "命令 "可以有两个参数，即行为者参数和接受者参数，每个参数都有自己的语义角色。行为者参数可以包含代理人的语义角色，而接受者参数可以包含主题的语义角色。

The research called Learning Styles in the teaching-learning process of the English language in educational units. The objective of the case study was to identify the learning styles of the students so that the teacher could propose strategies that can improve the learning of the English language in the participating educational units. At the same time, the research had a quantitative approach with the purpose of generating statistics based on the results obtained during the implementation of the Honey - Alonso Test of learning styles. The results presented show that there is no unanimity in the way students approach language learning. Finally, it is proposed as conclusions that among the main learning styles evidenced are the following: Active (Speaking/Listening), Theoretical (Reading), Pragmatic (Writing/Reflective), Active/pragmatic (Reading/writing), and Reflective/pragmatic (Reading/Writing).

The investigation was related to the quality of reading and learning in basic general education students: The case study had the objective of investigating the level of reading comprehension and determining their learning difficulties in the following institutions: "Oswaldo Castro" Educational Unit, "Raymundo Aveiga" Educational Unit, "Gonzalo Abad" Educational Unit and "Cinco de Mayo" Fiscomisional Educational Unit of the city of Chone. For information purposes, the research had a quantitative approach with the purpose of generating statistics based on the results obtained during the implementation of the knowledge test for students and a survey for language and literature teachers. The results presented show the students were able to infer the content of the reading, evidence that they do not practice reading in class, at home, or in other places. That is to say, there is a real disinterest and/or lack of motivation for reading. Finally, it is presented as conclusions the heterogeneity of the strategies used in the teaching-learning process of reading is evident, where there is no unanimous criterion on the part of the teachers related to the way of teaching reading.

The study aimed to investigate the diphthongal phones in the Balinese Language, particularly in Tabanan Regency. Phonological rules related to changes of vowel phones into diphthongal phones were uncovered and have explained factors that induce the changes. Data of this research were in the form of utterances produced by female informants in 10 sub-districts in Tabanan Regency. The data were collected through two kinds of methods, which were the interview method and the observation method. In analyzing the data, the researcher used an extra lingual matching method to analyze factors that induce the changes from vowel phones into diphthongal phones. Based on the result, these changes were induced by both linguistic and nonlinguistic factors. The linguistic factors were acoustic factors, namely frequency and duration, and phonological factors, namely diphthongization and vowel shift. Meanwhile, the nonlinguistic factor was the geographical elevation in which the participants lived.

Pronouncing English sounds correctly is not an easy task for second language (L2) learners because of the influence of their mother tongue. Empirical studies, based on first language (L1) interference, have investigated L2 learners’ pronunciation problems. However, these studies rarely focused on students’ development in pronunciation, and their results lack validity and reliability because of their mere employment of L2 English teachers as pronunciation assessors. The present study, using the acoustic software Praat as the instrument and taking a native speaker as the comparison, investigated Chinese L2 English learners’ problems and improvement in pronouncing the English sounds that do not have exact counterparts in Chinese. Data analysis revealed that the participants manifested different degrees of pronunciation accuracy with the target English sounds; their mispronunciations of consonants were mainly due to lacking voicing, wrong manners, and wrong places of articulation, while their mispronunciations of vowels were attributed to their improper tongue position, mouth opening, and diphthongization; and that higher-proficiency students tended to have greater pronunciation accuracy. The findings were discussed with reference to the literature, and pedagogical implications were provided at the end.

Since the law's enactment in 2008, language cases against the Undang-Undang Informarmasi dan Transaksi Electronic Republik of Indonesia (hereafter UU ITE), also known as the Electronic Information and Transaction of Republic of Indonesia Law, have risen year after year. One source of language cases against the law is social media messages, which are the result of their users' lack of legal and intellectual comprehension. Defamation, hate speech against specific persons or SARA (ethnicity, religion, race, intergroup), threats, decency, and obscenity are all prevalent components of the unpleasant content of legal-related social media text messages. The issues addressed in this study are (1) the category of language offence and (2) the microlinguistic and macrolinguistic analysis of the text type of offence. The objective, which is supported by a qualitative descriptive method within the Forensic Linguistics approach, is to identify a system of violations that could be justified based on linguistic facts. The findings demonstrate that texts with the potential to become legal cases can be proven by microlinguistic facts like word choices and grammatical structure, while macrolinguistic facts can support the microlinguistic elements like disregard for language ethics, lack of social media literacy, and lack of editing steps before text publication.

Suicide in fiction can promote insights into perceptions of, and attitudes about suicide ideation and behavior in a society. This article uses the novel Aku Sika as a case in point. Aku Sika is a novel set in Ghana in the 1950s. A young married woman attempts to end her life to avoid imminent disgrace. The king’s youngest wife, Aku, plots to commit suicide in response to rivalry and evil machinations of the king’s senior-most wife, S?kyeraa. Aku suffers from a hand deformity caused by a childhood accident and had been successfully hiding the deformity from public view. Due to her extraordinary beauty, the king selects her as a wife unbeknownst to him that she had a physical handicap, this in a society with a cultural prohibition barring kings from marrying physically handicapped brides. S?kyeraa swears under oath that she should be executed if it cannot be proven that Aku was not physically handicapped, A date was set for Aku to reveal her hand to the public. She decided to self-destruct rather than face public ignominy. On the banks of a major river where she planned to die by suicide, the river spirit appeared and healed her deformed hand.

This study aimed to examine whether the use of communicative games can improve the students’ speaking ability in the learning process and how it influences them. In doing so, the participants were fifty-eight students (23 females and 35 males) between 16 and 18 years of twelfth grade at a public rural school in Manabí. They had an English beginner's level. Then they were divided into two equal experimental and control groups. This study used a descriptive quantitative method whereas pre-test and post-test were administrated to collect data. The experimental group was taught speaking using two communicative games “guess who” and “gossip”, whereas the control group used conventional classes. Analyzing the data through the independent sample revealed the effectiveness of games application, the experimental group outperformed the control group in the four speaking components. Furthermore, students had a positive attitude toward utilization of communicative games.

Applied linguistics and educational linguistics are part of linguistics. Someone who is interested in studying this science must be able to distinguish it and have a deep perspective. The purpose of this literature review is to investigate the differences, similarities, scope, and relationships between these two disciplines. This discussion is based on secondary sources and focuses on applied linguistics and educational linguistics, of course, as topics of discussion. This study was tested and debated for a result. Based on the findings, there are several patterns of differences, relationships, and issues between the two.
