Abstract

The students are mostly unmotivated in the EFL reading classrooms since they have problems reading English texts. They feel stressed as they consider themselves alone, readers who cannot understand the text content well. This mixed-method study aimed to (1) investigate the significant difference between the mean scores of the pretest and the post-test in reading using Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) and (2) describe the students' reflections using CSR in the reading classroom. The data were collected by using a pretest-posttest and students' reflection sheets. The participants were 32 students from a private university in Indonesia. The pretest and post-test results indicated that CSR significantly improved students' reading skills in collaborative classrooms. The written reflections showed students were highly motivated to join collaborative reading, as the strategies were beneficial for improving their vocabulary, reading understanding, and critical thinking. This study greatly influences improving students' reading proficiency and social skills.

Abstract

Indexicals are important to contextual inference and generally, in semantic interpretation (Hanks, 1999). The present study set out to examine the use of the I-You indexical pronouns in Ghanaian Church Music. It was revealed that the I-Y spheres of the indexicals received relative frequencies of 4.55% and 3.35% in the data. Again, the study showed various referents of the I-You indexicals and their implication in the data based on their contextual and co-textual cues. The study extends knowledge on the subject of indexicality.

Abstract

As the world continued to grapple with the pandemic of COVID-19, Algerian universities had enforced a transition to a blended teaching approach, requiring both teachers and students to adapt. Accordingly, third-year Licence chemistry students received online and on-site lectures among which English for Specific Purposes lectures. This sudden transition from face-to-face to online teaching had an effect on university students namely at the emotional level which led this research to investigate the impact of both modes of course delivery on students’ affective filter specifically anxiety. A correlational research design was used to understand the relationship between anxiety and the learning environment. Two anxiety tests on online and on-site learning were administered to 16 chemistry students receiving English for Specific Purposes courses. Thus, the current research findings revealed that there is no significant difference in the students’ levels of anxiety whether learning online or in the traditional classroom. These findings necessitate future implications of applying practical techniques and strategies to reduce anxiety in both learning environments to create a suitable and supportive atmosphere that works for better comprehensible input for university students.

Abstract

Speakers of heritage languages do not universally achieve advanced levels in the language. We present evidence that three barriers are responsible: (1) lack of access to comprehensible, interesting reading material in the heritage language. (2) The use of traditional language teaching methods in heritage language classes, and (3) the reactions of elders who scold young heritage language speakers for their “errors.”

Abstract

Listening proficiency is essential in language acquisition, yet both its classroom time and research are overshadowed by other skills, such as speaking and reading. To tackle the issue of limited classroom time, extensive listening is one of the most convenient and effective solutions. Selecting the materials, however, needs an equally extensive effort; especially for the authentic ones.  Therefore, this study aims to investigate the speech rate and vocabulary level of TED-Ed videos as one of the sources of authentic material for extensive listening to determine their suitability for EFL learners. The research used a quantitative descriptive design with purposive sampling. The data collection of Speech Rate is conducted by transcribing the sample videos and dividing the number of words by the length of the video, and the result is measured in terms of WPM (Word Per Minute). To get the vocabulary level, the video transcripts are put into the Vocabkitchen website to analyze the vocabulary CEFR level for each word. From the analysis, the average speech rate of TED-Ed videos is 147.4 WPM and it is suitable for all levels of EFL learners, including beginner level. Meanwhile, the CEFR level of the vocabulary is more suitable for intermediate EFL learners and beyond.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate students' and lecturers’ anxiety in learning English during emergency remote teaching in a public university in North Bali. This study was formed in a quantitative study. The data were collected by doing a survey and giving the questionnaire that was developed based on the FLCAS (Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale) for the participants. There were 200 university students and 9 lecturers of English Language Education in the research setting as the participants. The study found that the university students’ level was mildly anxious or indicated a moderate level of anxiety. Meanwhile, the lecturers’ anxiety level was very relaxed or indicated as low anxiety level. From the results, it can be concluded that most of university students did not feel afraid and happy. Meanwhile, the lecturers felt joy in teaching and learning English during the emergency remote teaching.

Abstract

This study sought to establish whether students who are exposed to Controlled Extensive Reading Tasks (CERTs) will have higher learning outcomes during English as a Second Language (ESL) lessons. A 3-month intervention pilot of Controlled Extensive Reading (CER) instruction, was implemented in two secondary schools in Kakamega County, Western Kenya, from February to May 2023. We compared the impacts of the CERTs treatment group in ESL lessons in the pilot school with those of the control group that did not use the intervention but utilized the same instructional components. The findings revealed that assignment to the CERTs pilot group had additional improvement in the target language skills while the control group had somewhat constant learning outcomes. The study is useful to curriculum stakeholders who should consider such results alongside existing implementation strategies in ESL policies and program designs.

Abstract

The main problem faced by graduate and undergraduate students in writing their university application letters includes the difficulties of producing a coherent and cohesive text that can convince the evaluators of their suitability to the target program. The present study was conducted principally to investigate the thematic progression patterns realized in students’ statements (henceforth PSs), for their considerable role in shaping the overall structure of the text and unfolding the writer’s identity. The corpus consists of 20 PSs written by graduate English students applying for a Master's in Sociology in Western institutions. Eggin’s (2004) framework of Theme and Rheme was applied to analyze the thematic progression patterns (TPP) observed and find out the dominant pattern revealed from the students’ texts. The findings of the analysis indicated the presence of two main thematic progression patterns, namely the Reiteration pattern and Zigzag pattern, with the total absence of the Multiple theme pattern. The obtained results of this work may offer valuable insights for academic writing instructions and material developers.

Abstract

Pragmatics is a linguistic field that explores the complex relationship between language, context, and meaning. It involves analyzing how speakers and writers use language to convey not only literal information, but also social, cultural, and emotional cues that shape communication. Pragmatics examines how language users interpret and infer meaning based on contextual factors such as tone, gesture, and social norms, and how they use language to achieve various goals and outcomes. By uncovering the hidden meanings and intentions behind language use, pragmatics provides valuable insights into human communication and helps us to better understand how language shapes our social interactions and relationships Furthermore, pragmatics plays a crucial role in language learning and teaching, as it helps learners develop their communicative competence and understand the nuances of language use in different contexts. It also has practical applications in fields such as advertising, politics, and law, where the use of language can have significant impacts on audience perceptions and behaviors. Overall, pragmatics is a dynamic and multifaceted field that continues to evolve and shape our understanding of language and communication in diverse contexts.

Abstract

Most ecolinguistic analysis is conducted with texts produced for the general public. This article explores the use of ecolinguistics in the education of young people. The analysis focuses on young people’s media, specifically focusing on films. Two children’s movies (The Lorax and Back to the Outback) are analyzed using the ecolinguistic concept of stories we live by and the ecojustice concept of intersectionality. This analysis is undertaken to explicate these concepts in the hope that others will employ these same concepts to analyze other texts. These example analyses are explained about classroom practice and generating “noticing” as a learning outcome. Finally, five further techniques for involving students and others in ecolinguistic and ecojustice analysis are described. This article gives important insight into practical tools that can benefit teachers and students in the classroom. Additionally, children’s films and other media developed for children and youths may also be useful for the enjoyment and education of adults.
