This paper provides a review of Andy Gillet’s UEfAP.com site (Using English for Academic Purposes — A Guide for Students in Higher Education). UEfAP.com is an immense repository of English for Academic Purposes (EAP) materials that undoubtedly represents years of dedicated work. It is a well-organised, wide-ranging, easy-to-navigate (well-signposted) and reliable site. Thus this manifestly ‘extensive’ review attempts to describe this ‘extensive’ and noteworthy Internet EAP resource. A key recommendation is that these materials, which may have been designed for self-access use, also be utilised in a modern language-lab teaching classroom.

Uwierzytelnienie urządzenia mobilnego ubiegającego się o dostęp do zasobów sieci wymaga wykonania procedury protokołu EAP, która wprowadza opóźnienie. Jeżeli w systemie wymagane jest ponowne uwierzytelnienie, jak w sytuacji częstych przełączeń, wielokrotne uwierzytelnianie staje się trudne do zaakceptowania. W artykule dokonujemy oceny protokołu EAP Reauthentication Protocol (ERP), którego zadaniem jest zmniejszenie opóźnień. Ocenę wykonano na drodze symulacji numerycznych oraz emulacji w oparciu o prototypową implementację protokołu. Uwaga koncentruje się na kwestii obciążenia systemu uwierzytelniającego w związku z przetwarzaniem komunikatów protokołu ERP.

Network access authentication latency is problematic in scenarios where frequent reauthentications of wireless mobile devices are required. We evaluate the workload incurred by EAP Re-authentication Protocol (ERP) during handoffs. The study is based on numerical simulation and software-based emulation of prototype implementation.

The advent of mobile learning platforms and Web 2.0 technologies is believed to provide an autonomous learning space that minimizes the power structure between the teacher and students in Indonesian EFL classes, accommodating the students to display their capacity to navigate their own learning. Schoology m-learning platform, a social networking learning management system, is one of potential platforms facilitating the exercise of autonomy in English language learning. This paper aims to report how Schoology m-learning platform facilitated the exercise of learner autonomy in an EAP class at an Indonesian higher education. The qualitative case study involved twenty one-students enrolled in an EAP course that adopted a blended learning method. The findings suggested that Schoology m-learning platform helped the students to exercise autonomy in EAP learning. The students exercised their control over learning management, cognitive process, and selection of learning materials. The exercise of autonomy is due to the affordance of Schoology. First, Schoology’s social networking interface facilitated interaction and communication among the students. Second, its mobile application enabled the students to learn English at their pace, time, and place. Third, the media-rich materials encouraged the students to further explore other materials online.

Interest in Web-based and computer-assisted language testing is growing in the field of English for academic purposes (EAP). In this study, four groups of undergraduate EAP students (n=120), each group consisted of 30 students, were randomly selected from four different disciplines, i.e. biology, political sciences, psychology, and law. The four groups were homogeneous regarding their English proficiency. Four course-specific web-based tests of academic vocabulary were administered to each group with regard to their specific disciplines. Questionnaires were employed to explore the EAP students’ perceptions and self-efficacy concerning web-based language testing. Also, the perceptions of the four groups of undergraduates were compared in order to identify the differences among their attitudes. The findings would have implications for renewing assessment approaches and methods used in EAP instruction.

Online learning has become a highly effective tool for many language learning institutions and educational environments. However, very limited attention has been directed towards the teacher element in online learning environments in ESP/EAP instruction. To fill this gap, this study investigated the attitudes of 91 Iranian EAP instructors towards the implementation of online EAP instruction. A mixed-methods design was employed in this study, with both semi-structured interviews and questionnaires used to examine the participants’ perspectives. The findings of the study revealed that the majority of the participants hold positive attitudes towards the implementation of online EAP instruction while they are fully aware of the challenges and obstacles to the implementation of online EAP instruction in the Iranian context. Several limitations, including the lack of online EAP teacher training, the lack of facilities for online learning implementation, low digital literacy levels of instructors and students, and the lack of online instruction infrastructures were identified and reported. The participants also pointed out several practical measures and suggestions in order to pave the way for incorporating online EAP instruction which can be considered by EAP policy-makers and course designers. The study can have practical and theoretical implications for the renewal of EAP instruction in Iran and in other countries.

Literature circles (LC), an activity framework for classroom discussion, has been adapted for EFL classes to help students engage more deeply with reading texts. In this approach, students read texts outside of class, and discuss the texts in class, using a specified discussion framework. Originally developed for L1 classes as a tool for teaching literature, LC has been adapted for EFL classes, not only to help develop reading skills, but also to help students develop their discussion skills. However, to date, many adaptations of LC have relied on graded fiction as source material, which is not always appropriate for tertiary education. Feeling pressure to match course content with the labour market needs of our contemporary global society, English departments are increasingly being asked to include more academic content in their classes. This requires that non-fiction be used as source material. This preliminary study examines student perceptions of an LC class using non-fiction as source material. The subjects of this short, qualitative, pilot study were engineering students at a university in Japan. Procedures of the class and the issues that emerged are discussed.

The aim of this paper is to relate the concept of ESP to the idea of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) to work out a platform for the conceptualization of academic language as a context-reduced means of communication (Bernstein, 1971; 1999). Subsequently, the concept of talk-types (Moate, 2011) will be presented as a way of counteracting language de-contextualization and engendering restructuring of knowledge and the language itself. Theoretical considerations will be supported with the presentation of research on classroom interaction. It is aimed at highlighting how expert language is mediated in content learning with types of classroom talk and how the process of languaging (Swain, 2006a) facilitates both “taming” (Lankiewicz, 2013b) of the elaborated code and acquisition of expert knowledge.

This article describes security mechanisms used by Data Link and Network layers in OSI/ISO network model. Most of protocols for these layers were designed with assumption that there are no intruders, that every device in the network should trust to other devices. Some basic level of trust is necessary, but if this level is too high, standard protocols may be abused. Article classifies some vulnerabilities and network threads. This paper is also an attempt to create some basic rules and requirements which should be met by secure network protocols.

Praca opisuje mechanizmy bezpieczeństwa stosowane w najniższych warstwach sieciowych modelu OSI/ISO, tj. warstwie łącza danych I sieciowej. Warstwa fizyczna została również opisana, jednak ze względu na swoją odmienną specyfikę nie jest główną częścią artykułu. Większość protokołów stosowanych w wymienionych warstwach została stworzona wiele lat temu. Nikt wtedy nie zastanawiał się nad bezpieczeństwem sieci. Podstawowym założeniem wielu z nich była zasada, że każde urządzenie działa zgodnie z założeniem projektanta i że można ufać każdej informacji, która pojawia się w sieci. Pewien poziom zaufania jest konieczny, jednak jeśli jest zbyt duży, może prowadzić do nadużyć. Publikacja próbuje również sklasyfikować pewne podstawowe zagrożenia, jak również metody zabezpieczania sieci. Jest to próba uszeregowania pewnych metod, które wydają się niezbędne dla zapewnienia nie tylko poufności, ale ogólnie pojętego bezpieczeństwa sieci.
