Abstract

Writing remains one of the most demanding skills in EFL learning because it requires students to coordinate linguistic accuracy, idea development, organization, and sustained cognitive effort. In digitally mediated learning contexts, effective pedagogy and students’ active engagement may play important roles in supporting writing development. This study examined the correlations among cybergogy, student engagement, and English writing skills among high school students in Serang City, Indonesia. Using a quantitative correlational design, the study included 330 Grade XI students selected from a population of 1,887. Data were collected using a validated 12-item questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed in SPSS 26. The analysis included normality testing, Pearson correlation, t-tests, ANOVA, and coefficient of determination. The findings showed that cybergogy was significantly and positively correlated with students’ writing skills (r = 0.564, p < 0.001), whereas student engagement showed a stronger positive correlation (r = 0.688, p < 0.001). Simultaneously, cybergogy and student engagement were significantly associated with writing skills (R = 0.763, R² = 0.582, F = 151.121, p < 0.001), explaining 58.2% of the variance in students’ writing skills. These results indicate that EFL writing development is associated not only with the quality of digitally mediated pedagogy but also with students’ behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement. The study implies that English teachers should design digital writing instruction that combines structured online activities, interactive feedback, collaborative practice, and engagement-oriented learning tasks to support students’ writing development.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is essential for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners because it supports reading comprehension, listening accuracy, writing fluency, and oral communication. However, vocabulary instruction is still frequently dominated by memorization and decontextualized exercises, which may limit students’ lexical development and engagement. This study examined the effects of HyperCard and hypertext learning models on students’ vocabulary mastery by considering different levels of student engagement. A quantitative experimental design with a 2×3 factorial arrangement was employed. The participants were 100 eleventh-grade students from a senior high school in Pandeglang, Indonesia, selected from a population of 245 students. Data were collected through vocabulary pre-tests and post-tests and a student engagement questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, two-way ANOVA, and Tukey’s post-hoc test. The findings showed that the learning model had a significant effect on students’ vocabulary mastery, with the HyperCard model producing higher post-test scores than the hypertext model. Student engagement also significantly affected vocabulary mastery, as highly engaged students achieved better vocabulary outcomes than students with medium and low engagement. In addition, a significant interaction was found between learning models and engagement levels, indicating that the effectiveness of digital vocabulary instruction varied according to students’ engagement. These findings suggest that structured, card-based, and multimodal vocabulary learning can enhance students’ lexical development, particularly when supported by active learner engagement. The study implies that EFL teachers should integrate digital vocabulary models with instructional strategies that promote students’ attention, participation, persistence, and meaningful use of new words.
