Summary: This study investigated the coping strategies used by second-career teachers (SCTs) during the early stages of teacher training. The study found that SCTs primarily used intrapersonal and interpersonal approaching strategies, with intrapersonal avoiding strategies being less common.

Summary: This paper explores the effects of measures of utterance fluency typically used in Automatic Speech Evaluation on oral proficiency. Through a study on 60 Chinese learners of English, it was found that articulation rate, pause frequency, and repetition frequency can predict functional adequacy. Additionally, syntactic processing speed predicts pause duration at the end of clauses, while lexical processing speed predicts pause duration within clauses. Overall, measures of utterance fluency account for 60% of the variation in functional adequacy scores. These findings suggest that articulation rate best reflects overall functional adequacy, and other fluency measures reflect different underlying knowledge and processing areas, indicating the potential for automating diagnostic speaking tests.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between academic self-concept, intrinsic motivation, and academic performance of Senior High School students. The results showed that students with a positive perception of their academic self-concept were more likely to be intrinsically motivated, and both intrinsic motivation and academic self-concept predicted students' academic performance. However, it is important to note that academic self-concept and intrinsic motivation do not operate independently and educators should consider other factors that affect student learning.
