Abstract
This 2016 edition of TEYL research papers contains reports on small-scale classroom-based action research undertaken by post-graduate students for completion of their Master of Arts degree in Teaching English to Young Learners, from the University of York. In this edition, four papers are presented, focussing on: the impact of assessment descriptors on 12-14 year-old English language learners’ written work through increased self-awareness undertaken in Portugal (Diana England); teaching active listening skills to 14-16 year-old Spanish learners of English (John Lavery); the value of songs in the classroom to enhance vocabulary retention with very young learners in Greece (Soultana Papaioannou); the use of DARTs (analysis-directed activities related to text) to develop reading comprehension in 12-13 ESL year-old learners in a South-East Asian science classroom (Mark Anthony Steacy). This edition has been compiled and edited by Kate Gregson from the MATEYL supervisory team at the University of York.
