Vocabulary teaching in an English as a Foreign Language environment can be painful and tedious. This paper adopted Tailored-Crossword Puzzle Activity (Shortened as TCPA) generated by the software for an exploration of vocabulary teaching to English major freshmen. This paper examines five dimensions of students’ TCPA group competition: group discussion participated; helped keep the group on task; contributed useful ideas; the amount work was done; and quality of completed work. The results show that, in general, one’s own participation is closely correlated to other group members’ participation efforts. Meanwhile, the difficulty of a TCPA has to be carefully controlled with the consideration of time and vocabulary amount.

Limited curriculum enhancement resources are available to psychiatric nurse educators. This article provides a clinical teaching guide for novice instructors teaching an introductory psychiatric nursing course. The investigation is grounded in a constructivist theoretical framework and extends a previous case study project that explored how students learn during a mental health practicum (Melrose 1998, Melrose & Shapiro 1999). The guide was tested and modified by applying a qualitative outcome analysis methodology. Insight into interpreting student behaviour and providing appropriate and stage-specific teaching tools is revealed. Theoretical components, assessment questions for teachers, student behavioural signs and teaching strategies are identified and discussed to describe significant features in creating personally meaningful learning experiences.
