“…Previous work (Frumuselu et al 2015;Inglese et al 2007;Talaván, 2010) on ELLs has foregrounded the need to use audiovisual materials to support daily language learning. With a multidisciplinary focus, we have approached the issue of formulaic language learning and discussed in what ways TV shows could be useful and contribute to learning these linguistic forms for effective counseling sessions.…”

“…Inglese, Mayer and Rigotti (2007) stress the role of audiovisual materials to personalize the learning, and conclude that TV archives could be used as a teaching tool to minimize the learning gap between native and non-native speakers of English. In the same vein, Kecskes (2007) points to the value of being shared in the community by stating that "fixed expressions usually keep them out of trouble since they mean similar things to members of a particular speech community" (p. 199).…”

Abstract:Having command of formulaic language, one of the linguistic elements related to the culture, is critical for self-expression and understanding the interlocutor. Thus counselors who are ESL (English as a Second Language) learners might benefit from having skills in formulaic language for providing quality service to their clients. Audio-visual materials which mostly contain formulaic language forms and cultural aspects might be used to help counseling sessions be more helpful and effective. This multidisciplinary study aims at presenting a brief review of the literature about formulaic language and multicultural counseling and then discussing the possible effect of integrating TV shows into ESL classes in the connection between counselor and client. In conclusion we suggest that TV shows might be effective tools to boost figurative language skills and to encourage immersion of ESL learners into culture, which is interrelated with conceiving cultural aspects of communication. As an implication, we present possible approaches to curriculum design, multicultural counseling and teaching English for specific purposes.

This paper provides a framework for optimally representing student written essays in a vector space, based upon Latent Semantic Analysis and instructor evaluated grades. Comparing student essays to an authoritative source, a ranking scheme is optimized that allows for a unique vector space representation on the unit circle. Once such a representation has been found, traditional methods of circular data analysis and inference can be applied, as we demonstrate.

“…If increased actor visibility is indeed one of the “active ingredients” that makes Xtranormal effective, it could suggest that Xtranormal can help non‐native language speakers to better appreciate the context in which accounting decisions are made. Although no one has directly studied this possibility, research by Inglese, Mayer, and Rigotti () suggests that Xtranormal could level the playing field for nonnative speakers. Specifically, their study indicated that native speakers respond more favorably to textual information than non‐native speakers on cognitive, motivational, and affective measures, but native and nonnative speakers do not differ on any of these measures when material is presented in an audiovisual TV interview format.…”

This article describes a new pedagogical tool, text-to-video animation software, that accounting instructors can adopt to easily generate quality videos that address a variety of accounting learning objectives. Although this tool can be used to enhance traditional pedagogical methods, such as case analysis and discussion, it can also be used to address accounting learning objectives not currently addressed by traditional pedagogical methods. This article outlines the benefits of adopting and using this tool in financial and managerial accounting courses, and encourages further study of its effectiveness.
