Leaving work on a Friday like 🎉🥳🍻 #paperout

With Celia Gorba and Pilar Prieto, we asked whether nonwords really are superior to real words for training L2 sounds, and found that real-word training produces stronger and more generalized gains!

Bluesky is the new science Twitter: new study concludes

For the past decade, Twitter has been a primary home of scientists on social media. In recent years, new leadership at Twitter has made substantive changes that have resulted in increases in the prevalence of pseudoscience, conspiracy theory, and harassment on the platform, causing many scientists to seek alternatives. [including me]

Survey results overwhelmingly confirm that changes to Twitter have made the social media platform no longer professionally useful or pleasant, and that many scientists have abandoned it in favor of Bluesky.

Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter.

¿Imaginas que tu hijo dejase de respirar mientras duerme?
Pues para algunas familias de este país, es su día a día.
Se llama Síndrome de Ondine, y está catalogada como una enfermedad rara.
Tan rara que incluso algunos profesionales, ni la conocen.
Y hoy, os pido un favor.

La universidad pública no se muere, la están matando.
Estoy un poco desconectada estos días y no había podido compartir mi contribución del mes de febrero en @diarioeduca.
Aquí lo tenéis. Y ya sabéis, el hijo del obrero, a la universidad.

So much work on the initial stage of vocab learning (form-meaning mapping). Time to move on. We introduce Lexicosemantic Judgement—a new approach to help learners build robust, usable vocab knowledge for real-life L2 listening (automatization).

Another paper out! And probably the last one in a while😁

Here Brian Rocca, Isabelle Darcy and I extend some of my previous work and look into the role of phonological neighborhood density for L2 spoken word recognition when difficult sounds are involved

@fake_journals Perhaps to make an article look academic by adding as many references as possible? (Though more related references would be more credible). Or automatic reference management systems that do not work at all?

[Jonás Fouz-González @jon_f_g]

I just received a notification that my article on Twitter and pronunciation learning has been cited in a study about the Samisade program in Bogor Regency, which funds village infrastructure to foster rural development https://t.co/3YNNcglvIG. Intriguing! 🧐 @fake_journals

Ok, it's finally here 😍🥰

🔴 ÚLTIMA HORA | Ayuso rectifica y acepta los 169 millones del Gobierno para contratar a profesores de universidad https://t.co/DKenvkiBs1

🔴 ÚLTIMA HORA | Ayuso renuncia a 169 millones del Estado para sus universidades y la ministra Morant reacciona: “Pierden la posibilidad de incorporar a 1.000 profesores” https://t.co/rtWHoy20cE

[ana torres @anatorres8]

Esto rompe el alma: la universidad pública en Madrid agoniza. No le dan ni 10 años de supervivencia. Ayuso ha aumentado su presupuesto un 0,9%, cuando los rectores pedían un 18% para poder seguir pagando las nóminas https://t.co/SfpzvAaLco

Mi breve opinión:

El grado en secundaria no es la solución.
Más didáctica específica de la asignatura que impartiremos sí puede ayudar a serlo.

Sea como sea, sigue siendo noticia la preocupante falta de profesores de la que algunos venimos aquí advirtiendo ya un tiempo.
