This study aims to investigate Indonesian teachers' perspectives of translation or first language used in ELT classrooms as well as to find out the teachers' strategies on how to incorporate translation as their pedagogical tool. This research is applied in a case study methodology, in which the researcher interviewed three English teachers in Indonesia to explore their perspectives. The raw data was analysed by using thematic analysis to find the emerging themes of the interview data which led to the result of this qualitative research. The result of the finding indicates that the teachers mostly have positive perceptions about TILT (translation in language teaching). Most participants believed that when translation use selectively, it can help students with foreign language learning, promote students' metalinguistic awareness, function as a thinking tool, mediate social interaction, and function as social mediation. Additionally, the strategies of TILT applied by the teachers in this study entail explaining difficult concepts and grammar, avoiding chunks of word translation, and nurturing students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. It is suggested that if translation is integrated into language teaching, it should be used selectively as a pedagogical tool to support students’ learning.

This research investigates the effectiveness of mind mapping implementation in storytelling to improve students' speaking skills. This research was framed as an experimental method in which tests and interviews are used to analyze the data. The test consisted of pre-test and post-test, while the structured interview is used to find out students' perspectives toward using mind mapping in storytelling. The finding suggests a significant difference between students' speaking skills in retelling stories using mind mapping and without mind mapping. This difference could be seen from the distribution of the t-score, which is higher than the t-table. T-score is 6. 8, and the t-table is 1.7. The research also suggests that the students considered the mind mapping technique an excellent and effective technique applied in storytelling to improve their speaking performance. Based on the result, the application of the Mind Mapping Technique in storytelling in teaching speaking skills can be one of effective ways to improve the student's speaking performance.

Indonesian or Bahasa (L1) as a learner's first language is often used in English (L2) speaking lessons. This phenomenon often occurs even though teachers have informed them that using Indonesian during English-speaking skills classes is not permissible. Many reasons are suggested by experts why students use this first language. The most prominent reason is the student's lack of understanding of L2. However, this phenomenon still occurs in Public Speaking classes where students are already at the intermediate and advanced levels. In connection with this phenomenon, this study aims to find the main reasons students in the Public Speaking class use Indonesian in their English-speaking skills and what they think about using Indonesian in their English-speaking skills. A total of 50 students in two Public Speaking classes were observed and given questionnaires about their reasons and opinions for using Indonesian in speaking English skills. The results show that the highest reason students use L1 (Indonesian) in Public Speaking class is to process new and complex concepts. They argue that using Indonesian makes it easier for them to explain and understand the new concept.

Pengelolaan sampah yang baik merupakan hal yang sangat penting. Namun faktanya kesadaran masayarakat akan hal ini masih sangat rendah. Ini menyebabkan perilaku masyarakat yang terbiasa membuang sampah di ruang-ruang publik, seperti taman dan lapangan (alun-alun) kota. Salah satu sampah yang sangat umum ditemukan adalah sampah sisa makanan. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan PKM ini dilakukan dengan tujuan memberikan teladan dan membangun kesadaran masyakat Kota Langsa agar tidak membuang sampah sisa makanan di Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa, khususnya ke dalam parit (aliran air). Metode yang digunakan adalah Service Learning (SL) dalam bentuk kampanye dan gotong royong oleh mahasiswa dan dosen pengampu mata kuliah. Kampanye dan gotong royong dilakukan sebanyak 9 (sembilan) hari di Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa, Aceh. Hasil langsung dari kegiatan ini adalah Lapangan Kota Langsa yang bebas dari sampah sisa makanan, khususnya di dalam parit. Selain itu, perubahan perilaku masyarakat yang mengunjungi Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa juga terlihat pada hari kedelapan dimana masyarakat sudah dengan sadar mau memasukkan sampah sisa makanan mereka masing-masing ke dalam tong/kantong sampah yang disediakan tim PKM. Hasil dari kegiatan ini, terutama perubahan perilaku masyarakat ini sangat penting. Namun, masih membutuhkan kampanye yang panjang untuk membuat perubahan ini menjadi sebuah kebiasaan baik dalam masyarakat. A good waste management is crucial. However, the public awareness of the waste management is still very low. This fact has led to the behavior of people who are accustomed to throwing garbage in public spaces, such as parks and city squares. One of the most common waste found is food waste. Therefore, this PKM activity was carried out with the aim of providing examples and building awareness of the people of Langsa City not to dispose of food waste in Lapangan Merdeka (Merdeka Square) in Langsa City, especially into the ditch (water flow). The method used is Service Learning (SL) in the form of campaigns and gotong royong (collecting garbage together) by students and lecturers. The campaign and gotong royong were carried out for 9 (nine) days at Lapangan Merdeka in Langsa City, Aceh. The direct result of this activity is Lapangan Merdeka of Langsa City is free from food waste, especially in the ditch. In addition, there was also a change in the behavior of the people who visited Lapangan Merdeka of Langsa City on the eighth day where people were already consciously willing to put their respective food waste into the trash cans / bags provided by the PKM team.
