In the realization of education, it is necessary to regularly update and revitalize the curriculum due to the dynamic nature of knowledge and evolving educational needs. This applies to the domain of teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL). However, the process of curriculum reform poses several challenges, particularly for teachers who play a vital role in its implementation. This research aims to explore the difficulties encountered by EFL teachers in adapting to the transition from the Curriculum 13 (K13) to the Kurikulum Merdeka (Independent Curriculum) in Indonesia. Through a phenomenological case study, three EFL teachers in the North Sumatra province share their perspectives and experiences in incorporating the new curriculum into their teaching practices. Despite facing essential obstacles such as limited access to ICT resources and inadequate training, the insights gathered underscore the importance of teachers cultivating creativity and adaptability in their teaching methods. Additionally, the study emphasizes the significance of a serious understanding of the subject matter and the integration of 21st-century skills. The diverse viewpoints presented offer current insights into addressing the challenges associated with the development and implementation of EFL at different levels and in various types of schools.

DeepL Translators are one form of technology that is developing today. The use of technology has a positive impact on the language learning process. Most students make mistakes in writing. DeepL Translator is a translation machine that can be utilised to help with writing. Therefore, a researcher examined the role of DeepL Translator in the language learning process, especially in writing revision. While there have been several studies on machine translation in writing, few have examined the impact of DeepL Translator on the writing of EFL students who use DeepL Translator. A study conducted with second semester English Language Education students at a university in North Sumatra in 2024 involved 27 students as a sample, with four being interviewed about their use of DeepL Translator in their writing revision. The research design used mixed methods with an explanatory sequential strategy. The study included analyses of writing tasks and interviews. Writing tasks were assessed using SPSS 29 with a paired t-test at the 5% significance level, which showed a significant increase in scores <0.001. The interviews, which were then analysed using the Miles and Huberman interactive approach, showed the positive impact of using DeepL Translator. The students reported improved text quality, better errors, and convenience of use. In addition, DeepL Translator also supported students' writing strategies during revision. The students re-examined and utilised prior knowledge while revising their texts. However, they also noted challenges encountered, especially with specialised terms and different contexts than usual. Although DeepL has improved the quality of their writing, careful review of the translations remains important.

This study intends to examine how junior high school students see the use of the Lola Speak application to enhance their English speaking abilities. Students' subjective experiences were investigated using a qualitative approach and a case study methodology. Semi-structured interviews and questionnaires were used to gather information from 24 first-graders at a Medan junior high school. Ten closed-ended statements that assessed the application's usefulness, simplicity of use, and effect on students' confidence in their ability to speak English made up the questionnaire. The majority of pupils gave the application positive feedback, according to the data. Up to 66.7% of students concurred that the application's speaking practice feature enhanced their ability to communicate, and 58.3% said that using it increased their confidence when speaking English. The application was also thought to be engaging, user-friendly, and capable of boosting motivation for learning. Some students, however, claimed that in order to better accommodate different learning styles, more features were required and that there were technical limitations. The study's findings emphasize how critical it is to create application-based learning tools that are more flexible and sensitive to user requirements.

In line with the increasing institutionalization of scholarly publication as a graduation requirement for graduate students around the world, the use of a community of writing practice to support students navigate their publication endeavour has begun to receive attention from academic supervisors and graduate researchers. Despite the burgeoning interest in this topic, there has been little empirical evidence on master’s students’ experiences and perspectives of working within such writing groups at an Indonesian university. This phenomenological case study intends to fill this lacuna by elaborating on the process of a writing group's establishment and development for master's students of English education and exploring their perceptions of participating in such a community of practice (COP). Findings indicate that the writing group served as a flexible and participatory COP that produced critical and enduring alterations in identity as scholarly writers amongst participants. Specifically, their perceived transition into academic writers involves three aspects: knowledge of the values of scholarly publication, construction of a scholarly identity, and demystification of the publishing endeavour. This study's findings can be utilized to inform other master's and doctorate programs, as well as academic professionals seeking interventions to assist their students' productive writing.
