Abstract

This study aimed to analyse the English reading materials currently used by non-English major students and evaluate the extent to which they incorporate microlearning and problem-solving skills. The study was conducted at a public university in Bogor, Indonesia. The research utilized qualitative content analysis to examine a set of existing learning materials, consisting of a coursebook, PowerPoint slides, explainer videos, and infographics. Interviews with five English instructors were also conducted to explore the needs of learning materials further. The findings reveal a gap between the current materials and the descriptors of microlearning and problem-solving. Therefore, it indicates an urgency of developing new English reading materials that promote problem-solving and incorporate microlearning to facilitate the needs of non-English major students better.

Abstract

Recent trends in language education have demonstrated the dynamic use of technology in accommodating the needs of today’s learners. In relevance to the characteristics of digital natives, there is an urgency to transform teaching and learning practice. One promising approach to this matter is microlearning. Hence, this article aims to conduct a scoping review on the potential of microlearning in English language teaching. By examining twenty published research articles, this study sets two foci: how microlearning is used in digital platforms and how microlearning is addressed in ELT for higher education. This study reveals that microlearning approach is worth exploring to be applied in language pedagogical practices and to accommodate the 21st century English language learners in a post-pandemic context.
