Abstract

As a language of international communication, English is taught and learned in the contexts which are not neutral from morality or values both ESL and EFL. In the classroom contexts, there are interplays among diversity related to beliefs, religions, cultures, races, genders, ages, individual dispositions, and others. In Indonesia, values inculcation is nationally managed in the curriculum to accompany the offering subjects including English. However, to what extent it has been effectively incorporated in the EFL classroom has little been investigated. This research was aimed to reveal the reality of morality included in the EFL teaching in higher education based on the lecturers’ perspectives. Interviews were done to ten lecturers who were experienced in EFL teaching in a higher education institution. The findings revealed a solid consensus on the need of morality inclusion through the EFL pedagogy and its materials, nevertheless, its practices remained implicit. The study implied the need for specific studies on theoretical frameworks and instrumentation which guide teachers to incorporate values inculcation more sufficiently and sustainably into an EFL teaching.

Abstract

The paper reports a study inspired by the notion of ecological linguistics which has much been reviewed and researched by the applied linguistics experts worldwide. In this study, Leo van Lier’s notion of action-based was mainly used to describe the reality of English learning experience of university students enrolling in non-English departments. The English Courses in the departments applied MALL which was designed based on the ecological teaching principles of action-based (AB). Open-ended interviews were done to four participants to explore their perspectives on their own experience of learning English before and after joining the English courses. The data were analyzed and interpreted through narratives to unveil the elements of past, present, and future of the learning experience. Participant confirmation was carried out to increase the validity of the research findings. There was obvious evidence that the application of MALL underpinned by action-based teaching nurtured the students’ecological learning habit which connects the English and content-subject learning. All participants perceived that such learning was firstly complicated but challenging and motivating.

Abstract

The availability of technologies for instructional purposes has grown rapidly. One of them is using a digital story to teach English for polytechnic students.

This article further explains the implementation of digital storytelling as a pedagogical language input to foster the students speaking skills which involved the first semester students in Basic English course. Besides, the students engage actively in describing their experiences and showing visual background, which was assisted by a technological application available. The practical implication of this project is that the EFL teachers are able to deploy digital storytelling in their classroom as a medium to bridge learners through meaningful context and social practices.
