The paper is written BUT this is what needs to be fixed:
1. Many of the references cited in the literature review are dated, going back to the 1980s and 1990s. Much research has been done on immersion language learning [study abroad and stateside] since.
2. Many of the references cited in the References section are not cited in the body of the text [e.g., Nunan 1991, Magilyv and Thomas 2009, Schneider 2011, Spolsky et al. 1973, Zouhir 2010, Zouhir 2013] and others which are cited in the body of the text do not have corresponding entries in the References section [e.g., Nunan 1989, Cummins 1998, Genesee 1985] .
3. There is no clear theoretical framework where predictions are generated, and the findings are tied to such a framework and discussed accordingly in a discussion section. The latter is completely missing.
4. Please add the purpose and a novelty of the results to the abstract
[2 sentences].
2. Add 3-5 research hypotheses and show in the RESULTS section how they
are tested and proven.
5. Authors should explain better the criteria for selecting the research
object and the limitations of the application of the results obtained
should be specified.
6. Authors should explain the academic contribution of the work
developed [150 words in conclusion]. Highlighting what is
innovative/original about the existing literature.
This paper is novel because it seeks to contribute to the current debate
in the literature…..The scientific novelty of the article also
consists of a conducted large-scale study describing the author’s
theoretical and practical prerequisites……..

not sure how much writing you will need to edit this article, you tell me. I have ordered 5 pages, but we cannot go more than the number of existing words numbers.
- Case Study on Sampling Design
Aim of the assessment: Put principles of sampling methods into practice
If you were an education consultant for basic education, you were invited by United Nations Human
Rights Council [UNHCR] and the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund [UNICEF]
to provide suggestions and action plans to implement basic education to displaced Eritrean children in
Adi-Harush Camp in Ethiopia.
After July 2021, relief workers are returning in small teams to the camp after a conflict in the region of
Tigray was ceased. You are one of them to provide relief work. Your team has the mission to,
conduct nutrition survey and investigate family conditions of children,·
provide cooked meals to children and,·
rebuild or build primary schools,·
Before you initiate any development plans on improving living and education conditions of refugee
children, you were asked to present some general investigation to understand the demography and
present conditions of refugee children of 6 to 12 years old. Which sampling design you would propose
as most appropriate to identify a sample representative for the research project commissioned to you?
Then evaluate the strength and weakness of your sampling design. The assignment should not exceed
800 words [excluding references and appendices] in soft copy. If you have cited any academic journals
or information sources, please provide in-text and reference citations by American Sociological
Association’s style of referencing in order to demonstration academic honesty in using other sources.
Hint:
1. Check whether there is any ancillary data about displaced children, persons or families of
Eritrean refugees in Adi-Harush camp.
2. Check the geographical location and distribution of refugee shelters.

Assessment Item File Name Format
2 Case Study on Sampling Methods [student id]_[student name]_2
Instructor will download your paper from VeriGuide for assessment. DO NOT submit hard copy of your paper to the instructor or General Office.
Step to follow:
- Submit your paper to VeriGuide
- Receive the declaration form
- Sign and date the form electronically
- Send the soft copy of your form to the email address assigned to this course:
ACADEMIC HONESTY
All sources must be referenced with the appropriate formatting. Students have the responsibility to use a consistent style throughout a single piece of written assignment. Instructor will consider students’ choice of sources. Inappropriate use of sources will not be tolerated. Plagiarized assignments will result in a grade of zero, and will be subject to University policies on academic honesty. Students’ attention is drawn to University policy and regulations on honesty in academic work, and to the disciplinary guidelines and procedures applicable to breaches of such policy and regulations. Details may be found at http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/.
With each assignment, students will be required to submit a signed declaration that they are aware of these policies, regulations, guidelines and procedures.
- In the case of group projects, all members of the group should be asked to sign the declaration, each of whom is responsible and liable to disciplinary actions, irrespective of whether he/she has signed the declaration and whether he/she has contributed, directly or indirectly, to the problematic
- For assignments in the form of a computer-generated document that is principally text-based and submitted via VeriGuide, the statement, in the form of a receipt, will be issued by the system upon students’ uploading of the soft copy of the assignment.
Assignments without the properly signed declaration will not be graded by teachers. Only the final version of the assignment should be submitted via VeriGuide.
The submission of a piece of work, or a part of a piece of work, for more than one purpose [e.g. to satisfy the requirements in two different courses] without declaration to this effect shall be regarded as having committed undeclared multiple submissions. It is common and acceptable to reuse a turn of phrase or a sentence or two from one’s own work; but wholesale reuse is problematic. In any case, agreement from the course teacher[s] concerned should be obtained prior to the submission of the piece of work.
