Synthesizing research on metacognition and intersecting it with studies on second and foreign language writing, Sin Wang Chong puts forward a conceptual framework of metacognition and metacognitive knowledge that is employed as an analytical lens to examine junior secondary EFL students’ writing proficiencies.The exploration takes into account three facets of metacognitive knowledge, namely person knowledge, task knowledge, and strategic knowledge. Based on data garnered from interviews, open-ended questionnaires, and think-aloud sessions with students, the book analyzes the three types of metacognitive knowledge – theorized as a system – of junior secondary students with high, average, and low writing proficiencies. Discussion of the findings offers an expanded understanding of the factors that potentially affect students’ writing proficiencies, which will inform the teaching of primary and secondary EFL writing teachers to be more learner-centered. The book will appeal to researchers and teachers interested in metacognition and metacognitive knowledge.

This edited volume showcases first-hand accounts of crafting and handling feedback during the peer review process from early career researchers (ECRs), journal editors and experienced reviewers to develop the concept of ‘feedback literacy’ in academic peer review contexts.This novel collection of research uses personal reflections, disseminations of good practices, research syntheses and small-scale primary studies to highlight implications for feedback practices, demonstrating how academics’ capacity, disposition and skills in providing and engaging with constructive, professional and actionable feedback are crucial to ensure a comprehensive and worthwhile process. Chapters draw attention to the need for academics to develop feedback literacy, both at the ECR level and for more experienced peer reviewers, journal editors and authors, furthering discussion on improvement strategies and solutions to current feedback practices.Reimagining journal peer review as an inclusive and sustainable participatory system, this book will appeal to scholars and researchers working in higher education and educational assessment. There will be particular interest among postgraduate students and ECRs across the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences disciplines for whom journal peer review has a particular relevance.

This book investigates the ways in which new developments in areas of language teaching practice, such as policy-making, planning, methodology and the use of educational technology are locally adopted, adapted, and initiated and implemented in the four nations of the United Kingdom: England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. By looking at the drivers, stakeholders, obstacles, and affordances in particular regional contexts, it is possible to gain a deeper insight into the ways in which change processes occur. This will help anyone involved in language development, from curriculum reform to materials development, and from programme evaluation to the setting of assessment standards. The chapters in this book cover all aspects of language education in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, from the primary to tertiary levels in both private and public settings, as well as innovations at local, regional and national levels. The book will be of particular interest to those involved in managing change in language education that attempts to mediate between global trends and local needs.
