“…Moreover, the ADIDAS model was designed according to Piaget’s cognitive constructivist theory principles and modern instructional models, which were created during COVID-19, that ensured effective learning and enhanced mental load distribution during SDL. Accordingly, the students had low cognitive load levels while learning within the ADIDAS model [ 43 , 44 ].…”

“…To develop a draft of the ADIDAS model and answer the first research question, the literature review related to digital learning, especially amid COVID-19, instructional design models, and cognitive load as well as learning theories from various databases that we have reviewed and analysed (see Appendix A ). After screening the literature, we focused our analysis on the ADDIE model [ 43 ], interaction analysis model (IAM) [ 44 ], and model of self-regulated learning (SRL) [ 45 ] to develop the first draft of the ADIDAS model.…”

SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) has disrupted university education and turned it into distance learning for at least one semester in many countries, including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). However, there was an issue with university students’ cognitive load at this critical time, because education totally stopped for about a month and then resumed remotely. This research draws on the cognitive load theory, particularly the extraneous load, to develop an instructional design model called ADIDAS. The model includes six stages, namely: analyse (A), design (D), improve (I), do (D), Assess (A), and Share (S). Thirty-four experts in instructional technology models have reviewed the ADIDAS model in Arab university contexts, producing a consensus about its suitability for use in distance learning amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Following the consensus of the experts, the model was applied to a sample of 527 students at King Faisal University, KSA. The results confirmed significant statistical differences with a very large effect size in relation to the attitude towards synchronous digital learning (SDL) and cognitive load pre and post ADIDAS. Students had a positive attitude towards SDL and a low cognitive load during the educational process pre adoption of the ADIDAS model, compared to post ADIDAS. The current research results have numerous implications for post the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in Arab countries and similar contexts.

“…Therefore, second language learning motivation is an important concept that cannot be ignored in second language learning [29]. Generally, second language learning motivation can be categorized into three aspects [30,31]. The first one is socio-educationalbased theory, which mainly includes integrative and instrumental motivation.…”

“…A recent study indicated that intrinsic interest motivation had a direct positive impact on science achievement [56]. Besides, students who displayed more interest in learning were more likely to have higher academic achievement [30,57]. In the Asian context, intrinsic interest has been recognized as an influential factor in enhancing lifelong learning for students [58].…”

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) cannot be achieved without quality education and the cultivation of innovative and international talents. This study examined high school students’ English learning motivation structure, the differences between male and female students, and the motivational impact on English learning achievement. Participants included 778 high school students (385 boys and 393 girls) from two Chinese high schools in two representative regions. The results showed that the English learning motivation of high school students mainly included four types, namely, intrinsic interest, learning situation, social responsibility, and personal development. Females’ English learning motivation was significantly higher than that of males. Further, intrinsic interest and personal development had a significantly positive impact on English achievement, whereas social responsibility had a significantly negative impact, and learning situation had no significant impact. The above findings contribute to further understanding of the internal structure of second language learning motivation and the influence mechanism of motivation on achievement, which are of great significance to students’ growth and the sustainable improvement in the quality of education.

“…Although many scholars have done a great job in exploring English language learners' motivation (Ali, 2022;Jiao et al, 2022;Kühl and Wohninsland, 2022), there is a paucity of research into its role in the graduate students majoring in translation. China established the MTI Program to cultivate translation talents in China in 2007.…”

Motivation and affordance: A study of graduate students majoring in translation in China

Many Chinese students further their master’s study in translation, however, only a few of them become translators at last and most of them gradually decrease their language learning motivation in the translation program. Based on Complex Dynamic Systems Theory, the study adopted a sequential mixed methods design with both questionnaires and interviews to collect the data. We collected 446 questionnaires to explore what types of affordances influence their language learning motivation most. After that, we interviewed six participants to explore how these affordances influence their motivation. Findings from the questionnaires showed that the affordances of the mentor can be divided into strong academic ability, rich academic resources, caring students, and strict requests; affordances of the instructor can be divided into informative courses, being serious in class, strong teaching ability, practical courses, new teaching methods, and the reasonable course planning; affordances of the peer can be divided into peer pressure, shared learning resources, mutual encouragement, and mutual supervision. Affordances of the institution can be divided into a good learning atmosphere, sufficient internship opportunities, abundant library resources, good infrastructure, and scholarships. Findings from the interview showed that different interpretations of affordances lead to different effects on language learning motivation; affordance has little influence on intrinsic language learning motivation. This study provided some insights for policymakers and teachers on how to cultivate and promote translation students’ language learning motivation.
