This study examines the levels of student engagement in traditional versus blended learning environments among students in Cordova Public College. There were 240 randomly selected students from different programs who answered an adapted survey questionnaire. Employing a quantitative descriptive-comparative research design, the study determined whether there are significant differences in cognitive, emotional and behavioral engagement between these two modalities. Data were gathered using and analyzed using independent T-test and one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The results revealed that compared to blended learning, traditional learning environment has higher level of cognitive, emotional and behavioral engagement. Moreover, a significant difference (p=0.02) in student engagement was found between traditional and blended learning environments. Furthermore, results revealed that there is significant difference between age and student engagement in the traditional classroom setting (p=0.03), also, program consistently demonstrates a significant relationship with student engagement in both traditional (F=3.33, p=0.02) and blended (F=3.97, p=0.009) learning modalities. These findings highlight the critical role of higher education to evaluate and improve their blended learning approaches in order to guarantee that they promote levels of engagement comparable to traditional settings.

Japanese learners often find it difficult to speak English clearly because thetwolanguages are quite different, especially in terms of pronunciation.This study aimedtoinvestigate whether and how the phonological features of Japanese English languagebyselected Japanese YouTubers reflect a changes or improvements influencedbythetechnological exposure and frequent interaction with English language online. This studyemployed a qualitative research design with a descriptive phonological approach, thestudy analyzed recurring English words and sentences in vlogs to identify both JapaneseEnglish segmental and suprasegmental features. The findings of the study revealedaconsistent phonological patterns shaped by Japanese English, alongside with instancesofnear-native pronunciation in sounds such as /ɑ/, /dʒ/, /n/, and /ŋ/, likely a result ofrepeated exposure to General American English through the use of digital media. Suprasegmental phonological features showed variation in intonation and a tendencytomisplace stress patterns, it suggests both influence from Japanese phonology and adaptiveuse driven by the communicative demands of content creation. These results indicatedthat informal, technology-driven language exposure may foster a greater phonological proficiency than traditional learning, a grammar-focused instruction. It is recommendedthat English language educators integrate an authentic digital content into teachingpractices. Future research could involve more participants and use a detailedaudioanalysis to gain deeper insights.
