Abstract

This study investigated the English learning needs of 55 accounting students at Pattimura University to inform the development of an ESP module. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire administered in Indonesian, covering learning objectives, self-reported proficiency, preferred topics, language task preferences, and exercise format preferences, and analyzed using frequencies and percentages. The findings revealed that academic purposes dominated students' learning motivations (49.1%), followed by career preparation (25.5%). Speaking emerged as the weakest skill, with the highest proportion of beginners (29.1%) and no advanced-level reporters, while reading showed the strongest profile (76.4% intermediate). Students preferred foundational business topics over specialized content and gravitated toward structured, scaffolded task formats such as summary writing, note completion, and contextual vocabulary gap-fill exercises. Based on these findings, the study proposes a five-unit module framework that maps empirically preferred topics and task types onto a scaffolded instructional sequence for ESP curriculum development at the institutional level.

Abstract

The importance of self-efficacy in enhancing students’ writing performance has been widely recognized, yet its specific impact on descriptive text writing remains underexplored in secondary education, especially within the EFL context. This study addresses this gap by examining the relationship between self-efficacy and descriptive text writing performance among Grade X students at SMA Negeri 6 Seram Bagian Barat, Indonesia. Using a quantitative correlational design, the study collected data from 72 Grade X students through a self-efficacy questionnaire and a writing performance test. The results revealed that most students (84.7%) demonstrated moderate levels of self-efficacy, while their writing performance showed a broader distribution, with 45.8% achieving good performance and 18.1% demonstrating excellent writing skills. Statistical analysis indicated a weak but significant positive correlation between self-efficacy and writing performance (r = 0.297, p = 0.011). This finding suggests that while self-efficacy influences writing achievement, its impact may be moderated by other factors in the EFL context. The study contributes to understanding the complex relationship between psychological factors and writing performance in secondary EFL education, highlighting the need for comprehensive instructional approaches that address both cognitive and affective aspects of writing development. The findings have implications for EFL writing instruction and suggest directions for future research investigating mediating variables in the self-efficacy-writing performance relationship.
