Abstract

The process of learning English as a foreign language is not easy as students face various difficulties and one of them is anxiety. Ketsman, (2012) and Yilmaz, (2011) stated that student's performance and achievement are affected by the teacher's effectiveness, and one of the teacher's roles is to reduce anxiety in the classroom by creating a friendly and supportive atmosphere in the classroom. For this purpose, it is important to know the level of anxiety of foreign language learners. The present study aimed to investigate the students' perceived level of foreign language anxiety among Indonesian high school students based on the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) by Horwitz et al. The present study was a survey design. This design focuses on describing trends in a large group of individuals (Creswell, 2012). The results of the present study showed that anxious students were quite common in foreign language classrooms within the scope of this study. The participants in the present study had a moderate-level of anxiety, and the three factors included in the research instrument contributed to it to varying degrees.

Abstract

Abstract This study examines the perceptions of ninth-grade students in a junior high school in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, regarding the implementation of online English learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Involving 50 students selected through a lottery method, this research focuses on five aspects: technical issues, motivation, time management, social interaction, and teachers’ support and access. The findings indicate that students faced challenges related to technical issues, such as poor internet connectivity and audio/video problems, which disrupted the learning process. Motivation and engagement varied among students, influenced by the absence of face-to-face interaction and distractions in the home environment. Time management was also a concern, with some students struggling to meet the demands of flexible online learning schedules. Limited social interaction and isolation were common experiences, affecting students’ sense of connection and engagement. The lack of access and support from teachers further impacted students’ perceptions of online learning. To sum up, this study underscores the importance of addressing technical challenges, enhancing motivation and engagement, improving time management skills, and fostering social interaction in online English learning. Therefore, further study is suggested to understand the long-term effects of online learning is crucial for identifying gaps and developing targeted interventions.
