Proceedings of the 4th International Conference of Research on Language 2025 (IROLE 2025)

This is an open access book.

International Conference of Research on Language Education (IRoLE), initially served as a national conference in 2016, is a global forum dedicated to advancing the field of language education. The initiator is Akademi Pengajian Bahasa, Universiti Teknologi MARA Cawangan Melaka, Malaysia.

Continued in 2021, IRoLE has evolved from a national event to an international platform, offering cutting-edge insights and discussions on effective language teaching and learning practices worldwide with the theme “Engaging in Change: Empowering Linguistics, Literature and Language”. The event was then deliberately held twice a year, dedicated to advancing the study and understanding of language in all its aspects.

IRoLE 2023 then successfully carried the theme “Embracing Change: Emancipating the Landscape of Research in Linguistics, Language, and Literature” and the committee is ready to take a step ahead by conducting the event outside Malaysia, collaborating with Department of Language, Arts, and Culture Management, Vocational College, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia.

In collaboration with UGM, IRoLe 2025 has slightly changed its acronym to International Conference of Research on Language.
