By creating summaries, the goal of OASIS is to provide more physically and conceptually accessible research results to stakeholders and others both within and outside the language learning and teaching field. All summaries have been approved by the original author(s) of the journal articles, and in some cases they are co-authored by these individuals. The summaries primarily address “the study’s goals, how it was conducted, and what was found” using non-technical terms. In some cases findings that are relevant to language educators are also noted.
