The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the asynchronous voice-conferencing technology, Voice Thread ®, on the anxiety and oral proficiency of high school students in their third year of studying Spanish as a foreign language. In this quasi-experimental study students' foreign language anxiety levels and oral proficiency were examined to determine if a difference existed based on the type of practice used. The treatment group used Voice Thread ® to practice speaking. The control group used the traditional method of the language laboratory to practice speaking. The Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) was used to measure anxiety levels and the Performance Assessment for Language Students (PALS) level three speaking analytical grading rubric was used to measure oral proficiency. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze the foreign language anxiety data. A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze the oral proficiency data. Results for the FLCAS yielded no significant difference between the control and treatment groups. Results of the MANOVA yielded a significant main effect difference between the control and experimental groups. Posthoc pairwise comparisons revealed statistically significant differences for the subscales of task completion, comprehensibility, level of discourse and fluency. No statistically significant differences were found for the subscales of vocabulary and language control. Descriptors: foreign language, anxiety, oral proficiency, voice-conferencing

The world of middle level education is rapidly evolving. Increasingly, online learning platforms are complementing or replacing traditional classroom settings. As students exchange classroom interaction for online collaboration, pencils for keyboards, face-to-face conversations for chat room texts, and traditional lessons for digital modules, it becomes apparent that teachers, schools, and administrators must identify ways to keep pace. We must identify ways to meet the needs of middle level learners within this digital context. In this volume, researchers and teachers share a variety of resources centered on the growing world of virtual education and its implications for the middle level learner, educator, and classroom.

"The research questions for this Action Research Capstone based upon the literature review are: 1) How does Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety relate to the Interpersonal, Interpretive and Presentational Modes of language learning including the specific language skills of Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking? 2) What methods are most effective in reducing FLCA for [beginning and intermediate high school] second language students?"--Leaf 13. "The investigation has resulted in three major conclusions based upon the data collected. The data shows that FLCA exists for the majority of students at some point during language learning process. The student can experience FLCA based upon a wide variety of factors, including skill assignments and academic relationships. Language anxieties are often related to language learning skills and students may experience these anxieties based upon student personality, the lack of preparedness, the skill itself, the complexity of the skill assignment, negative academic relationships and more. With support, students can identify FLCA and develop strategies to alleviate the anxieties associated with language learning skills"--Leaf 43.

The unit focuses on governmental structures and incorporates multiple performance assessments. The goal of this project was to see how various strategies and adopting a new pedagogy (content-based instruction) affected language anxiety in a high school Spanish classroom. This three week unit was implemented in a Spanish 2 classroom and data was collected through multiple surveys. These measures where used to obtain data regarding language anxiety, communication apprehension, and receive general feedback from the students regarding their anxiety levels and the unit's success. These surveys found that the implementation of a content-based unit and incorporation of various strategies did have an effect on the students' language anxiety."--Abstract.
