In the spring and fall semesters of 2022, intervention studies were conducted in over 11 General English classes and with nearly 200 student participants (in their first and second years). Students in the intervention courses took part in weekly multi-modal assignments using Moodle, in which students practiced developing and expressing opinions about international topics. Students in the control group received no such practice. All students filled in the International Posture (IP) survey in the first and last class meeting of each semester.Results were analyzed statistically to identify whether the activities increased students' IP scores. Non-parametric analyses were employed. For the first semester, no statistical differences were identified in terms of IP gains in both the intervention and control groups. However, through background information gathered on the surveys it was found that students' experiences using English outside of classes in high school correlated with IP more strongly than experience abroad. Data collected in the fall semester is currently undergoing statistical analysis.

在2022年的春季和秋季学期，在11多个一般英语课程中进行了干预研究，并有近200名学生参与者（在他们的第一年和第二年）进行了干预研究。干预课程的学生使用Moodle参加了每周的多模式任务，其中学生在其中练习并表达了有关国际主题的看法。对照组的学生没有获得这样的做法。在每个学期的第一堂课和最后一个课程会议上，所有学生都填写了国际姿势（IP）调查。统计分析的分析，以确定这些活动是否增加了学生的IP分数。采用了非参数分析。在第一学期，干预组和对照组的IP增益均未确定统计差异。但是，通过在调查上收集的背景信息，发现学生在高中班级外使用英语的经验与IP相关的比国外经验更强烈。秋季学期收集的数据目前正在进行统计分析。
