How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Learning a foreign language is one of the ways for students to develop their moral values through exposure to a large variety of cultural, ethical, and social situations. This article reveals the combination of specific traits in foreign-language classrooms that contribute to moral growth along with linguistic proficiency. Teachers can help their students to the multicultural resources, raise ethical dilemmas, and use practical learning methods, in the process they establish an environment based on empathy, critical thinking, and ethical awareness. This research has put a spotlight on the enormous influence that foreign-language education can have on the growth of ethical and globally responsible citizens with students receiving practical suggestions for the adequate inclusion of moral development into the teaching of their methods.
