Abstract

This study focused on teachers’ materials adaptation as a part of teaching strategies to ensure learning success. Given that such activity is not something light to engage in and requires expertise, the researchers looked at how the process of materials adaptation was carried out. These included what was added, removed, and modified as well as the challenges confronted during the adaptation process and classroom implementation. This study sought perspective from a qualitative case study approach. Documents, classroom observations, and interview were employed to gather data from one senior high school teacher in Aceh, Indonesia. The results were analyzed based on frameworks of language teaching materials analysis, principles of teaching materials, and materials adaptation. Research findings suggested that materials adaptations mostly concentrated on adding and modifying, with less emphasis on eliminating, simplifying, and rearranging. Furthermore, the altered materials aided language learning in various ways. Nevertheless, several modifications made raised issues, such as the lack of a feeling-sharing session with the materials and an inappropriate difficulty level. Inaccessible sources of materials, fear of producing irrelevant information, time constraints, a lack of professional training and school assistance, learners’ uncooperative behavior and low competences were also identified as problems in materials adaption.

Abstract

The annulment of English subject at the elementary and tertiary levels harms the absorption of graduates. This decision needs to be reviewed whether it follows current conditions where graduates are required to be able to compete globally. Competition becomes increasingly problematic because students lack continuous English learning. This study aims to reveal the perspectives of non-EFL students on learning English in their faculties and how the association between English learning achievement scores and their perspectives on the language they are learning is related. It involved 45 students from two non-English faculties who studied English only as a general course. Our statistical calculations using correlation analysis found that most non-EFL students had an optimistic viewpoint on English and hoped to be provided with it continuously. In addition, the analysis also found that the achievement scores in English lessons had a significant positive correlation with their perspectives.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to review the trends and key conclusions of research on Extramural English activities in English language teaching (ELT) approaches. Several databases, including Scopus, Taylor Francis, and Google Scholar, were examined and 8 articles in all were examined for this purpose. The research methodology employed was a PRISMA systematic review. A content analysis technique was used to assess the articles. The study's findings showed that extramural English in ELT became more popular among researchers in Sweden after 2012. This research sought to look at the trends and conclusions made by the publications. Secondary school students served as the primary participants in the articles that were chosen. It suggests that more research on additional potential participants from different levels is necessary. This study recommends using a qualitative research design in future studies to learn more about students' extramural English activities, which may shed new light due to a different methodological approach. It was discovered that there aren't many studies that focus on the new reality of digital Extramural English practice. Because there is still much room for research in this area, future researchers are encouraged to talk more about Extramural English in relation to technology.

Abstract

Taking the principles of critical discourse analysis favoring issues on unequal power relations, this discourse study attempts to disclose the manifestation of privilege in government regulations. To do so, it combines the principles of Systemic Functional Grammar and CDA by explicating the results of transitivity analysis on the legal text within relevant socio-political context. The data were the clauses in Circular Letter No. 26/2021 enacted by the Indonesian government on Health Protocols for International Travel during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The results show that, in terms of transitivity, the circular letter includes material, relational, verbal, and mental process, which serve to show the details on health protocols to be adhered by travelers, to describe the criteria of travelers who are given special provisions and of the countries being temporarily banned from entering Indonesia, to report the health condition of travelers, and to show the need of medical assistance. The material and relational processes demonstrate the form of privileges, namely dispensation from quarantine implementation and the exemption from Indonesia travel restriction. The relational process shows the particular privileged groups, including the state officials, delegates of economic cooperation, and well-known figures. It is embedded in the circular letter that what are deemed beneficial for the political elites and the country’s economic are somehow not in line with the public interest.

Abstract

Previous studies related to learner autonomy have been conducted, yet those studies seem to focus on formative assessment as a guarantee for the development of learner autonomy. This study is projected to assess the undergraduate students’ level of independent learning since learner autonomy tends to manifest itself in various degree of independence. A questionnaire related to independent learner was adopted as the main instrument. The data were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The quantitative data were obtained to assess the students’ level of independent learning while the qualitative data were gained to reveal the students’ perceptions and thoughts about independent learning. The results show that most of the students have moderate independence. Moreover, most of the students are considered able to relate the concept of independent learning with various degrees of independence that are included in the notion of learner autonomy. Nevertheless, the findings also show that some students tend to have low interest in their studies, low expectation about what they want to learn, and low possibility in questioning what they are told. It is important for the teachers to enhance the students’ moderate independence into high independence by providing the access to a number of learning opportunities. Thus, the students are able to critically reflect on their own learning and effectively develop awareness to help them learn constructively.

Abstract

The online social network facilitates excessive opportunities for intercultural communication in the online multicultural community. Occasionally, intercultural communication possibly results in misunderstanding, confusion, or stereotypes. Intercultural sensitivity, therefore, is necessary to respond to probable issues in online intercultural communication based on Indonesian students’ experiences. This narrative study portrayed the development of intercultural sensitivity in the online multicultural setting. The data were compiled from narrative reports and recordings and then analyzed based on Hunter’s analysis of the narrative. It reveals the development of intercultural sensitivity in the themes of 1) embracing a phonemic variation of English, 2) developing mutual strategies to understand the language, 3) celebrating small similarities, and 4) self-control to listen respectfully. The findings are primarily meant for intercultural education. The study also suggests the use of an authentic intercultural setting for English language learners to develop their intercultural sensitivity and bring the discussions after practice in the classroom.

Abstract

The use of technology is closely linked to the implementation of digital learning. As one of the profiles of the 21st century teachers, digital tools are notably prominent in helping ESP students improve their learning outcome, particularly during the Emergency Remote Learning (ERL) due to COVID-19.  Kahoot® as one of the technological advancements in the field of game-based learning was considered to be highly beneficial and helpful for ESP students to be more engaged and motivated in improving their English vocabulary through online means. This study presents ESP students’ perceptions of the use of Kahoot® in an internet-based instruction during the pandemic. Survey research was employed with 51 participating students of the Health Promotion Study Program at Poltekkes Kemenkes Malang. The questionnaire was distributed online with 21 survey items designed to accommodate the students’ points of view. The findings show that the students of the Health Promotion Department had a strong preference to the use of Kahoot® in improving their English vocabulary during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Abstract

Intercultural communicative competence, commonly known as ICC, refers to the ability to respectfully compare and mediate between different cultural values. This study aims to systematically review the current trends and main findings of the studies focusing on the integration of ICC in ELT settings. A total of 17 peer-reviewed articles published between 2018 and 2022 were analysed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) items. The results showed that there has been a fluctuation in the number of studies published during the last four years. From the reviewed articles, it was found that most of the studies were conducted in Asia and used a qualitative method in examining the higher education students’ skills and perspectives on ICC. Additionally, it was reported that using intercultural teaching and learning practices was effective in improving the participants’ ICC. Nonetheless, many studies found it difficult to implement intercultural teaching and learning practices, particularly when it came to time constraints, learning material availability, and establishing success criteria. This underlines the necessity of creating a comprehensive instructional learning model that can help ESL and EFL teachers, as well as other educational practitioners, integrate ICC.

Abstract

Students’ engagement has been seen as a crucial part of learning as it determines their success in getting the most out of the learning process. The present study aims to identify the trends and to evaluate the main findings of a number of articles on students’ engagement concerning the hybrid classroom settings. This study started with employing some keywords to select articles from several databases to review. A systematic review following the PRISMA framework was employed as the research method. The articles were then analyzed by means of content analysis. The findings suggest that most articles involved university students as the main participants, with the sample size ranging from 100 to 500 students. In terms of methods, most studies used quantitative measures by employing surveys in comparison with the less observed qualitative or mixed methods. The findings show that the selected articles focused on improving students’ engagement, developing tools for measuring engagement, and determining factors affecting engagement in relation to technology. Further suggestions regarding the implications and future research are discussed.

Abstract

Speaking in a foreign language, which is often perceived as intimidating by many foreign language learners, has long been associated with foreign language anxiety (FLA), particularly foreign language speaking anxiety (FLSA).  Although numerous studies have investigated FLA and FLSA, most have focused on the classroom environment, whereas the settings outside the classroom, where learners use the language to communicate with native speakers and foreigners, have been relatively overlooked. Although a foreign language classroom environment can be a significant source of anxiety, an authentic target language environment could also trigger anxiety. This study aims to address this gap by investigating FLA and FLSA in both classroom and non-classroom settings from the perspective of a Turkish student living in London. Unlike traditional questionnaire-based quantitative methods used in previous research, this study employs a qualitative method to better understand these issues from the participant's lived experience in both settings. The interview data revealed that the participant experienced a higher degree of anxiety outside the classroom, with peers having a greater impact on her degree of speaking anxiety than teachers in the classroom.
