Abstract

Electronic portfolios have been widely accepted as the learning and assessment tool for enhancing language skills and competence in higher education. However, previous studies have not profoundly examined how e-portfolios with well-defined structure influences students’ engagement. More information on e-portfolios and engagement is also needed. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the well-structured e-portfolios on students’ engagement in learning activities as these activities consist of self-and peer-assessment. To serve this intention, an explanatory sequential mixed method with questionnaires and interviews was used to obtain data. The questionnaires and reflective notes were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and the results of the interview were analyzed based on the qualitative thematic analysis technique. The findings show that there is no difference between EFL students’ perception and language skills. It was also indicated that self-assessment plays an essential role in engagement which informs constructs of e-portfolio. Further, a wider range of information on e-portfolio structure to deepen engagement was constructed. The conclusion profoundly informs and implicates instructional design and pedagogy in further study.

Abstract

Film has become a more modern means of human’s life depiction than novel or any other written literary work because of its ability to present in audio-visual form. One of the film’s essential elements is intrinsic, the elements that interlink and build the film itself. This research centres on the intrinsic elements in The Paddington (2014) film using a structural approach. Moral value is also being discussed in this research using a separated theory by Linda and Eyre (1997). This research is contributing to the richness of current literary work research while simultaneously giving a support to upcoming and ongoing studies. This research analysed the data using descriptive qualitative method developed by Miles and Huberman (2013). Prior to this, the data had been collected using Creswell’s (2012) note-taking technique. The finding of this research discovered five intrinsic elements and twelve moral values in this film. While the intrinsic elements consist of theme, plot, character and characterization, setting, and point of view. More than 10 classifications of moral values were recorded in this study.

Abstract

Students of English struggle to remember large amounts of new vocabulary, which leads to a lack of vocabulary, and effective teaching methods and media affect students' knowledge of vocabulary. The current research focuses on using bimodal English-subtitled movie series to improve student vocabulary. The purpose of this research was to determine whether the vocabulary of students improved as a result of watching a seven-part English television series with English subtitle. This study employed quantitative approach, and thirty undergraduate students majoring in EFL were chosen to take part in this study. Prior to the intervention, the students were given a test of the vocabulary that was often found in the series, and they were given the same test following the intervention. The data were analyzed using paired sample t-test and the significance level of 0.05 was used to reject the null hypothesis. The finding shows that watching an English TV series with English subtitle significantly enhanced the students’ vocabulary. As a result, it is recommended that learners use an English TV series with English subtitles to improve their English vocabulary.

Abstract

Choosing a code when interacting is one of the opportunities that a bilingual has. Code-switching is usually used by bilinguals when interacting with the other person. This study tries to find the types of code-switching and the categories of reasons for using code-switching in lecturer- students’ interactions in thesis exams. This research used a qualitative method with a case study approach. The data was in the form of utterances obtained from recorded interactions of five thesis examination sessions in the English undergraduate program at Syiah Kuala University. The data was analyzed through several processes, including transcribing, data condensation, identifying, marking, grouping, displaying data, and making inferences. The data was analyzed using the theory proposed by Stockwell and Hoffman. From the analysis, it was found that there are three types of code-switching, namely tag switching, inter-sentential, and intra-sentential. Related to the categories of reasons for using code-switching, the researcher found 5 from 7 reasons to do code-switching in lecturer-students’ interaction in thesis examination. The researcher hoped that the next researcher will further analyze the code-switching that occurs in the thesis exam, not only analyzing the types of code-switching and the reasons for using code-switching, but also analyzing the other side of linguistics.

Abstract

Students must have a sufficient vocabulary size in order to improve other English skills, as vocabulary is one of the most crucial aspects of language acquisition. Therefore, it is necessary to teach vocabulary when teaching a language. This study seeks to determine the effect of vocabulary instruction on vocabulary achievement among senior high school students. This study was a quantitative study, the sample was 30 students, and the data was collected using a pre-test and post-test. Between the assessments, a seven-hour vocabulary education was provided. Using the paired sample t-test and Wilcoxon signed rank test, it was determined whether there was a statistically significant difference between students' scores before and after the vocabulary training was implemented. The results indicate a significant increase in vocabulary scores among students. The results of the research indicate that explicit vocabulary instruction should be incorporated into the teaching and learning process since it has been shown to increase students' vocabulary.
