Abstract: Language learning aims to empower students with linguistic skills and the ability to utilize those skills to communicate with others. While research on linguistic anxiety has been conducted regarding global languages, the emotional aspects of language learning have received less attention compared to the cognitive aspects. Therefore, exploring the emotional factors in language acquisition is necessary to understand the difficulties faced by learners. Linguistic anxiety, a major aspect of language learning, plays a vital role in the acquisition process. Specifically, anxiety related to foreign language education is a relatively recent area of focus in educational psychology. In this study, the researcher used an experimental approach to examine the impact of a program utilizing direct learning strategies for French language education on anxiety levels. The study focused specifically on second-year secondary school students and skills such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The program incorporates strategies to improve French vocabulary acquisition and subsequently reduce linguistic anxiety amongst this cohort. These strategies include: the guessing strategy, concept mapping, and summarization, they aim to enhance the learners' vocabulary and linguistic abilities, which may contribute to diminished linguistic anxiety. The core research problem in this study aims to address is the notably high levels of French learning-related anxiety amongst secondary school students. Foreign language education plays an important role in broader educational research, as it facilitates access to diverse cultures worldwide. Additionally, existing research has enabled the identification of linguistic anxiety levels amongst students learning French specifically.

Abstract: Thanks to technological advances, companies are increasingly shifting their Information Technology (IT) workloads to the cloud. These advances can be summarized in three environments: the use of virtualization, the use of physical devices and the use of cloud computing. In the academic environment, the use of cloud computing brings enormous advantages as a tool for carrying out virtual laboratories, therefore, the objective of this project is to investigate one of the aspects of cloud computing, called Infrastructure. as a Service (IaaS), creating a prototype with Openstack that enables the investigation of this technology, examining its advantages and disadvantages, in the same way, of proposing it as a tool for the Los Libertadores University Foundation that allows students their professional growth, which includes the basic requirements for the development of laboratory practices with services such as virtualization of operating systems, storage, development of programs, among others. According to what was previously stated, the main function is to manage those virtual machines with the tools available to reduce the physical resource of the institution taking into account its infrastructure through the public cloud, managing and configuring OpenStack environments for end users. The article is the result of research where measures of use will be established with the different technological tools that it offers us for its development and control.

Abstract: This article aims to provide an overview of the application of machine translation technology in the field of legal translation, exploring its potential, challenges, and future directions. Firstly, it reviews the development process of machine translation technology, including rule-based methods, statistical machine translation, and the application of deep learning methods. Secondly, on the basis of in-depth deconstruction of the operating rules of the big language model, it is demonstrated that the highly modeled written legal language is highly consistent with the underlying logic of the big language model because of its standardization, accuracy and de-contextualization, so compared with other styles, machine translation technology will achieve better translation results in the field of legal translation. In addition, multimodal technology can also be applied to court interpretation, which greatly alleviates the shortage of qualified interpreters and maintains judicial justice. Furthermore, it discusses the human-machine collaborative model in legal translation, emphasizing the importance of human proofreading and review in ensuring translation accuracy and reliability. Lastly, it summarizes the prospects and challenges of machine translation technology in the field of legal translation. Through a systematic review and analysis of relevant literature, this article reveals the immense potential of machine translation technology in legal translation. It can significantly enhance the efficiency and quality of legal translation, thereby enhancing the capacity of legal language services.
