Abstract

The majority of learning and teaching activities during the COVID-19 era were distributed to remote learners. The ineffectiveness of face-to-face instruction was subsequently put aside as students felt comfortable learning online. Policymakers in the education system had to adjust to a new normal or habit once the COVID-19 cases started to decline. The aim of this research is to identify the challenges faced by final year students in completing thesis during the Post-Covid-19 New Normal Habitus period and to find out how final year students can complete their thesis guidance during the Post-Covid-19 New Normal Habitus period. There were 15 English students joining the interview and the research was conducted within the State Islamic campus in Jambi City. Coding system was implemented to get credible data. The result shows that Completing studies in the New Normal Era has several obstacles. One of the most significant problems is the communication problem between students and supervisors which involves internal and external factors. Internal factors focus on difficulties caused by students' lack of understanding of thesis components, references and citation styles. Meanwhile, external factors focus on students' difficulties in the thesis writing process which depends on the direction of the supervisor, where some lecturers still provide online thesis guidance, where students agree that online counseling is not effective.

The results of the survey show that students like having smart, interactive whiteboards in the classroom. The results show that these technological tools help people learn, get motivated, feel like they are working well, and don't have any bad affects. The combination of audio and visual elements makes it easier to understand and provides a stimulating learning environment. Students also say they are more engaged, focused, involved, and excited about learning. Smart, interactive whiteboards are thought to make classrooms more visible, more organized, and better at keeping track of time. The fact that most students disagree with the idea that these tools have bad results shows that they like using them. Overall, the results show how smart interactive whiteboards can be benefited for positive learning experiences, motivation, efficiency, and student engagement in a positive and pleasant learning atmosphere.

Abstract

Personal Branding is a step taken by a lecturer, one of which is publishing articles in accredited journals. Academic writing is intended to contribute to the field of education both practically and theoretically. This scientific research focuses on descriptive analysis of lecturers' voices about the struggle in achieving a publication target. The author uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological design and semi-structured interviews to obtain data from selected senior lecturers at certain public institutions. In general, the findings of this research are categorized into six points. Of the two sub-themes, the research results tend to lead to positive and negative attitudes in English-language publications. Furthermore, the discursive challenge shows that Participants have difficulty writing with regard to word choice, grammar, and vocabulary bank, while the non-discursive challenge shows that Participants have difficulty processing their soft skills such as time management in writing and financial management in publications. In terms of psychology, the lecturers' internal motivation in writing is the target for achieving a higher career. The more they write, the more performance points they get so they can reach a certain career level. Meanwhile, external motivation is in the form of government regulations and legal institutions that require an educator in higher education to carry out scientific activities such as research and reports in the form of published scientific articles. The implications of this research are expecting support from the institution where they work and the writer's family to understand their obligations as a lecturer.

Abstract

Kecanduan smartphone di kalangan remaja menjadi perhatian serius karena dampaknya yang negatif terhadap kesehatan fisik, mental, dan sosial. Artikel ini membahas pelaksanaan program pengabdian masyarakat yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran siswa SMPN 8 Kota Jambi mengenai bahaya ketergantungan pada smartphone dan membekali mereka dengan keterampilan praktis untuk mengelolanya. Sosialisasi dilakukan melalui pendekatan interaktif yang melibatkan diskusi kelompok, permainan edukatif, dan simulasi situasi sehari-hari. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam pemahaman siswa mengenai dampak negatif penggunaan smartphone yang berlebihan. Sebanyak 70% siswa melaporkan keberhasilan dalam menerapkan strategi manajemen waktu yang dipelajari selama sosialisasi. Meskipun sebagian besar siswa menunjukkan perubahan positif, tantangan tetap ada, terutama bagi mereka yang masih merasa sulit untuk mengurangi ketergantungan. Artikel ini menyoroti pentingnya dukungan jangka panjang dari sekolah dan guru untuk memastikan keberlanjutan perubahan perilaku yang diinginkan. Program ini berpotensi untuk direplikasi di sekolah lain dengan penyesuaian sesuai dengan konteks lokal, guna membentuk generasi muda yang lebih bijaksana dalam penggunaan teknologi di era digital.

Abstract

Understanding the reasons behind Speech Difficulties and Language Interference is a very urgent matter to address amidst the ease of access to learning English. This study investigates the challenges faced by Indonesian university students majoring in English Education in speaking English fluently. Despite having completed more than six semesters, many still mix Indonesian and English during conversations and show reluctance to use English with peers. Through semi-structured interviews with ten students preparing for teaching internships, this research explores motivational, linguistic, and sociocultural factors contributing to their speaking difficulties. The findings reveal a lack of speaking confidence, limited exposure to English input, and negative perceptions about accent and dialect as primary obstacles. Moreover, external factors such as minimal digital access in rural areas and parental pressure to enrol in the English program significantly reduce students' motivation. This study calls for a re-evaluation of English language pedagogy in teacher training programs by integrating motivational and sociolinguistic awareness.
