Abstract

Listening is widely recognized as a fundamental skill in English language learning because it serves as the primary channel through which learners receive linguistic input. Through listening, learners are exposed to vocabulary, grammatical structures, pronunciation patterns, and discourse features that shape overall language development. In everyday life, listening enables individuals to engage in social interaction, interpret meaning, and respond appropriately in informal communication. In academic contexts, particularly at the university level, listening plays a more complex and demanding role, as it supports learning, knowledge construction, and academic success. Despite its importance, many English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners assume that listening skills developed through daily communication are sufficient for academic purposes. This assumption often leads to difficulties when learners encounter academic spoken discourse, such as lectures, academic discussions, and presentations, which are linguistically denser and cognitively more demanding. This article aims to examine the differences between everyday listening and academic listening in English learning. Using a qualitative descriptive approach based on a literature review, this study synthesizes theoretical perspectives and empirical findings related to listening comprehension. The findings indicate that everyday listening is spontaneous, context-dependent, and interaction-oriented, whereas academic listening is formal, goal-driven, and requires specific cognitive and strategic skills, including identifying main ideas, recognizing discourse structure, and taking notes. The article argues that academic listening competence does not automatically develop from everyday listening experience and therefore requires explicit attention in English

Abstract

Vocabulary knowledge has long been recognized as a crucial component of language proficiency. In the context of listening skills, vocabulary plays a significant role in enabling learners to recognize spoken words, interpret meaning, and accurately comprehend oral input. This journal article aims to examine the role of vocabulary knowledge in improving listening accuracy among language learners. Using a comprehensive review of relevant theories, empirical studies, and pedagogical perspectives, this paper discusses how vocabulary size, depth of vocabulary knowledge, and lexical processing influence listening comprehension accuracy. The discussion also highlights implications for language teaching and learning, particularly in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts. The findings suggest that strengthening learners’ vocabulary knowledge significantly enhances their listening accuracy and overall communicative competence.

Abstract

mpetency in the 21st century, yet many Indonesian students face challenges such as limited practice, low confidence, and lack of opportunities in class. This study explored students’ perceptions of using the Mango Languages application to practice conversations and enhance speaking skills. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected from 15 English education students through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Thematic analysis revealed five themes: enhanced confidence, vocabulary and pronunciation development, flexibility and accessibility, motivation and engagement, and challenges and limitations. Based on these identified themes, Mango Languages showed potential in reducing students’ anxiety, improving pronunciation accuracy, and supporting independent learning. However, challenges such as limited conversation topics, lack of direct teacher feedback, and technical barriers were also reported. Therefore, Mango Languages was best positioned as a supplementary tool for improving speaking skills in higher education when integrated with classroom instruction..

Abstract

The integration of digital technology in education has become a global phenomenon that is changing the paradigm of learning in the 21st century. In Indonesia, the adoption of mobile learning applications such as Hablo App shows an increasing trend in line with the national digital literacy agenda. Teachers, as the main implementers, face a dilemma between the transformative potential of technology and the reality of technical and pedagogical constraints in the field. This study used an exploratory qualitative case study design with a purposive sampling approach involving two teachers who had implemented the Hablo App. Data collection involved observation and interviews was administered to gather specific data about usage patterns, satisfaction levels, and technical difficulties. This study emphasizes the expectations and challenges of teachers regarding the use of the Hablo App in classroom. These findings hold significant implications for educational app developers, language educators, and policymakers aiming to optimize digital learning.
