The study used a mixed-method design with an experimental class and a control class. The data were collected through a questionnaire, speaking test, observation, and interview. The result shows that the speaking confidence of the experimental class is higher than the control class and the students enjoy the activities. So, role-play can be used by the teachers to teach speaking.

Abstract

Writing in English is difficult if the students do it alone, so they can be asked to write together. Nowadays this can be done using Google Docs because the students can write in the same document at the same time. This article discusses collaborative writing through Google Docs in English language learning. The method used is literature review from various journals. The result shows that Google Docs can help the students in writing together and they can also see the revision of their friends. However, sometimes only one or two students are active and the others are just watching. Therefore the teacher must design the task well and monitor the process.

Abstract

Many students can read but they just accept what is written in the text and do not think critically. Inquiry-based learning can be used to make the students ask questions and find the evidence by themselves. This article discusses how inquiry-based learning can improve students' critical reading skills. The method used is literature review from international journals about inquiry learning and critical reading. The result shows that inquiry-based learning can improve critical reading because the students read with a purpose, ask questions, and support their answer with evidence from the text. But the inquiry must be guided by the teacher, because if the students are left alone they will be confused. Therefore the teacher must give scaffolding and also ask higher level questions.

Abstract

In the usual classroom the teacher explains and then gives homework, so the time in the class is used only for explanation. In the flipped classroom it is the opposite, the students watch the video at home and in the class they practice. This article discusses the implementation and the outcomes of the flipped classroom model in English language teaching. The method used is literature review from many journals. The result shows that the flipped classroom can make the students more active and they have more time to speak and to write in the class. But there are also problems, for example the students do not watch the video, the internet is not good, and the video is too long. Therefore the teacher must make the video short and must check whether the students have watched it or not.
