Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the writing anxiety experienced by eleventh-grade students in learning English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in Bali. By conducting a quantitative research method, this research involved 76 students as the participant of the study. The research employed an adapted questionnaire from Cheng (2004), consisting of 27 designed statements. The result revealed that many students face challenges with writing anxiety in English.

Additionally, the positive aspect of the study demonstrated that students actively work to minimize mistakes in their writing, emphasizing the importance of accuracy in managing writing anxiety which may imply the motivation to learn English.

Abstract

This research explores the development of English e-storybooks integrated with the Emancipated Learning curriculum for first-grade students at SDN 3 Banjar Jawa. Following the Design and Development (D&D) model, specifically the ADDE (Analyze, Design, Development, and Evaluation) framework, the study employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. The research addresses the dearth of supplementary materials and the limited use of e-storybooks in the context of Emancipated Learning. The process involves a systematic analysis of needs, the design of a comprehensive blueprint, the development of e-storybooks, and an evaluation based on expert judgment, teacher assessments, and student feedback. The results indicate that the developed e-storybooks align with curriculum objectives and exhibit excellence in material development principles. The findings emphasize the potential of e-storybooks in enhancing language skills and supporting 21st-century learning principles. The research contributes valuable insights for educators, researchers, and curriculum developers interested in creating effective digital resources tailored to specific educational contexts.

Abstract

Podcasts have gained popularity among a vast number of listeners who utilize them to enhance their English listening skills. However, limited classroom time is allocated for focused listening practice. This research aims to investigate students' perceptions of using podcasts as an effective means of improving their listening abilities. Three participants volunteered to take part in the study, and additional recruitment efforts were made to encourage more student volunteers. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather data, allowing for the exploration of individual experiences, attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs related to the use of podcasts. Four key themes emerged from the participants' perceptions: 1) Hearing the message, 2) Interpreting the message, 3) Evaluating the message, and 4) Responding to the message. Listening involves interpreting the communicative behavior of others to comprehend its meaning, and effective listeners ensure they have all the necessary information before forming opinions. The findings indicate that podcasts facilitate clear message reception, provide verbal and non-verbal cues for deeper interpretation, offer features to optimize the listening process, and provide an authentic experience of listening to native speakers. Future research is recommended to explore students' perceptions of using podcasts for improving other English language skills.

Abstract

Having highly motivated teachers is vital for effective teaching in foreign language classroom. Nevertheless, burnout may impair teachers' performance and negatively impact how they engage with students. The current study aimed at investigating the level of burnout among EFL teachers in Indonesia. This study was a mixed method study followed by forty-five EFL teachers who are currently teaching in high school level. Using Maslach Burnout Inventory Educators Survey, it was found 57.8% of participants responded they felt high levels of emotional exhaustion, followed by moderate levels (31.1%) and high levels (11.1%). Comparably, approximately 17.8% of the teachers felt they were not depersonalized, compared to 37.8% who felt it was moderate and 44.4% who felt it was extreme. High level of burnout was experienced by teachers with less than five years of teaching experience. Low to moderate level of burnout was found in teachers with more than five years experiences. Regression analysis found that length of experience significantly influences EFL teachers’ level of burnout (Sig. <.05). A further interview confirmed the factor that caused burnout among teachers such as teaching administration, adapting with technology, and dealing with misbehave students. This study highlighted the importance of addressing teachers’ burnout level.
