ArXiv HCI

Analysis

This research explores a promising application of AI in language education, specifically addressing the challenges faced by non-Chinese speakers learning Cantonese. The quasi-experimental design provides initial evidence of the system's effectiveness, but the lack of a completed control group comparison limits the strength of the conclusions. Further research with a robust control group and longitudinal data is needed to fully validate the long-term impact of LiveBo.
Reference

“Findings indicate that NCS students experience positive improvements in behavioural and emotional engagement, motivation and learning outcomes, highlighting the potential of integrating novel technologies in language education.”

Sorting of Working Parents into Family-Friendly Firms

Analysis

This paper investigates how parents, particularly mothers, sort into family-friendly firms after childbirth. It uses Korean data and quasi-experimental designs to analyze the impact of family-friendly benefits like childcare and paternity leave. The key finding is that mothers are retained in the labor force at family-friendly firms, rather than actively switching jobs. This suggests that the availability of such benefits is crucial for labor force participation of mothers.
Reference

“Mothers are concentrated at family-friendly firms not because they switch into new jobs after childbirth, but because they exit the labor force when their employers lack such benefits.”
