Abstract

Many studies have investigated Task-Based Language Teaching(TBLT) in language learning, but studies on the implementation of TBLT assisted by Digital Media in the current era have been rarely conducted by scholars. This study is intended to investigate students' perception of the implementation of TBLT assisted by Google Classroom, focusing on their learning experiences, the challenges they face, and the benefits and effectiveness of TBLT. This explanatory sequential mixed method involved 60 students of the Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Study Programs at Eka Sakti University, Padang. The data of this study were gathered using a questionnaire and semi-structured interview. The quantitative data were analyzed quantitatively using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were analyzed qualitatively using an interactive model. The results show that students’ perception of learning experiences, benefits, and effectiveness aspects were positive, while some students faced some challenges (e.g., task instruction, time allocation to do the tasks, internet connection, and work independently) in the challenge aspect in Indonesian language learning using TBLT assisted by Google Classroom. Although they faced some challenges, they overcame them by collaborating with their classmates in conducting institutions from the lecturer. Thus, it can be concluded that TBLT assisted by Google Classroom is effective in enhancing students’ Indonesian language skills and components, participation, learning interest, collaboration, and engagement. Thus, the TBLT approach integrated with Google Classroom is suggested to be employed by language instructors in teaching the Indonesian language course in Higher Education for non-Indonesian major students.

Abstract

Many studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of project-based learning (PjBL) in language teaching. However, limited research has examined teachers’ misconceptions during the implementation of this learning model in classroom practice. This present study aims to investigate the levels, types, and parts of PjBL categorized as misconceptions held by Indonesian language teachers in some senior high schools. This explanatory sequential mixed-method design involved 35 teachers who were selected purposively. These teachers taught the Indonesian language subject in some schools in a city in West Sumatra Province, Indonesia. The data were obtained by distributing a set of questionnaires and conducting semi-structured interviews face-to-face. The data were then analyzed quantitatively using descriptive statistics, while the qualitative data were analyzed using the thematic analysis method. The results revealed that many teachers interpreted PjBL as merely assigning project tasks rather than facilitating a structured learning process. Misconceptions were particularly evident in the project planning and reflection stages, where teachers showed limited understanding of how to guide students in inquiry, collaboration, and reflective learning. Interview data further revealed that these misconceptions were related to teachers’ limited conceptual understanding of the core principles and student-centered nature of PjBL. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening teachers’ pedagogical understanding of PjBL and provide empirical insights into how misconceptions may influence the effectiveness of PjBL implementation in language classrooms.
