The influencing factors of technological English learning beyond the classroom:The mechanisms of international posture and digital learning competence
From the complex dynamic systems theory perspective,this study explored the influencing mechanisms of international posture and digital learning competence on technological English learning beyond the classroom(TELBC)among 315 Chinese college students by employing structural equation modelling and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA).The results indicated the following:1)The"attitude or behaviour propensity"factor of international posture significantly positively predicted TELBC,and digital learning competence fully mediated the relationship between the"knowledge orientation"of international posture and TELBC;and 2)three types of configuring patterns were found to trigger a high frequency of TELBC by fsQCA,categorized respectively as"cognitive driven,""vocational driven,"and"discipline driven."This study elucidated the complex mechanisms of the antecedents that contribute to TELBC,potentially empowering the practice of technological English learning in out-of-class settings.
