Abstract

This study was designed to find out the EFL Vocational School teacher’s implementation of TPACK and its dominant strategies implemented by EFL Vocational School teachers in teaching writing. This qualitative case study was conducted at a technical vocational school in Malangbong using observation, interviews, and documentation. Research participants were purposively recruited for this study including an English teacher at a technical vocational school in Malangbong. The results of this study showed that teacher has good knowledge about technological advances for teaching writing, especially in the aspects of CK, PK, PCK, TPK, and TPACK. Thus, an EFL teacher must have more concern on developing the TPACK framework of mind. Several problems emerged with its implementation including students' experiences with unsteady internet connections and electrical troubles, such as occasionally occurring in teaching activity that leads to pend or even cancel lessons, and it greatly disrupts the learning process. Concerning the challenges encountered by teachers, schools must always find out ways to solve problems in teaching and understand the concepts of the TPACK framework. Thus, teaching writing using the TPACK framework can be carried out effectively.

Abstract

EFL students frequently face challenges in understanding cultural references, idioms, and slang, which can hinder vocabulary acquisition and overall language comprehension. This issue raises important questions about the accessibility and effectiveness of various language learning tools for learners from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. This study explored the impact of using pop culture English movies for vocabulary acquisition among EFL college students. A qualitative case study method was employed, involving 40 participants, with 10 students from each grade level completing a questionnaire and 10 participating in follow-up interviews. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires to explore students’ perceptions and semi-structured interviews to investigate the strategies for learning vocabulary through movies. The results indicated that students generally found movies valuable for vocabulary acquisition, particularly enhancing their listening skills and contextual understanding. Most students reported increased confidence in using new vocabulary learned through movies. They employed various strategies, including note-taking, subtitles, and engaging in peer discussions. However, challenges such as difficulty understanding cultural references and the fast pace of dialogues were significant obstacles. Despite these, many students preferred learning vocabulary through movies over traditional classroom methods. The study concluded that pop culture English movies can be an effective tool for vocabulary acquisition, provided that students are guided in using appropriate learning strategies. Future research should focus on the long-term impact of movie-based learning on vocabulary retention and the potential benefits of different movie genres for language learning.

One of the results showed that social workers use digital media technologies that reflected the consistency of the social workers with the literature on social media engagement more generally.
