Reading as a receptive skill is very important skill for all students of English because it is a skill that everyone needs in studying or conveying the language. However, it is very difficult for the students to catch the message from the reading text as they have limited words and reading strategies. The aim of this research is to prove whether the implementation of Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) is effective to improve students’ reading comprehension.To achieve the purpose, the classroom action research design was employed by following four stages: planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. This research was implemented in two cycles, in which both the first cycle and the second cycle were carried out in two meetings. CSR is implemented to teach students reading comprehension in cooperative learning groups. CSR consists of four strategies that are implemented in pre-reading, whilst reading, and post-reading. CSR strategies consist of: (1) preview the text, (2) click and clunk, (3) get the gist, and (4) wrap up. The result of the research revealed that Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) improved the students’ reading comprehension achievement on the fourth semester of English departmentat IAIN Jember.

Abstract

This study investigated technological pedagogical and content knowledge (TPACK) practices during the current COVID-19 pandemic and examined factors influencing students’ perceptions of effective online learning. This study gathered the primary data from 90 university students from four study programs via the online questionnaire. Using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistical tool for data analysis, this study found that students’ perceptions of their teachers’ teaching performance in the fully online programs are not significantly different across four study programs. This finding implies that regardless of their study programs, the students had expected that teachers should pay attention to some vital aspects in online learning: using the same learning management system (LMS) for all study programs, and preparing designing practical online modules, taking care of the organization of teaching inputs that promote students’ critical thinking, delivering various teaching inputs and methods, intensifying teachers’ presence in monitoring students’ learning progress, motivating students to learn, and promoting teacher-student mutual respect through effective communication. This study also revealed that teachers play a pivotal role in achieving effective online learning during the pandemic.

Abstract

Recently, incorporating technology in English as a foreign language (EFL) courses has been the topic of much debate. Technology can facilitate student interaction in the learning process and create an interactive and communicative classroom environment. Zoom is a solution for faculty members to engage and motivate students in virtual courses as it provides real interaction and direct feedback. This present study aimed to explore EFL students' perceptions as well as attitudes toward synchronous learning through Zoom Videoconferencing. The participants were 72 undergraduate students in the Intensive Reading course. The data was collected through questionnaires, observations, and interviews. The contents of the instrument were validated using expert judgment. The quantitative data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics while qualitative data were analyzed using thematic coding. The findings demonstrated that students had positive perceptions of Zoom videoconferencing in terms of actual use, perceived ease of use, intrinsic motivation, behavioral intention, and attitude. Further research into using Zoom videoconferencing to develop innovations in an online course is strongly recommended. HIGHLIGHTS: Zoom videoconferencing provides several benefits in terms of actual use, perceived ease of use, and satisfaction. Positive perceptions among students are related to their habits as digital natives and adjustments in post-pandemic classroom instruction which integrate technology in the educational setting. The learners’ positive attitude, they were satisfied with the course content, they felt comfortable participating in group discussions since the faculty designed interesting tasks and well-instructions and explanations. By doing so, this fun atmosphere in the teaching and learning process could promote peer interaction and build their social community. Synchronous videoconferencing can create an accessible, flexible, and effective classroom environment, facilitate an engaging online learning environment, and increase interactive and communicative interaction between teachers and students. By doing so, faculty members can create virtual courses utilizing Zoom videoconferencing for live interaction and an engaging classroom environment.
