Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in teaching speaking for intercultural communication from higher education lecturers’ point of view, focusing on pedagogical strategies, challenges, and outcomes. Through a qualitative case study involving three English department lecturers at Universitas Muhammadiyah Sorong, Indonesia. Data were collected via classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. Findings reveal that lecturers leveraged ICT tools such as video conferencing (e.g., Zoom), multimedia simulations, gamified platforms (e.g., Kahoot), and collaborative digital projects to support students’ intercultural competencies, including empathy, adaptability, and critical reflection. Structured activities like impromptu debates, role-plays, and multimedia case studies enabled authentic cross-cultural interactions, aligning with pedagogical frameworks such as the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Despite ICT’s transformative potential, challenges included resource constraints (e.g., unstable internet, limited hardware), lecturer preparedness, and balancing theoretical knowledge with practical application. Lecturers adapted by integrating personal intercultural experiences, digital storytelling, and asynchronous tools (e.g., Padlet) to foster engagement. The study underscores ICT’s role in bridging cultural divides while highlighting the need for context-sensitive strategies, particularly in multilingual, resource-limited settings. Limitations include a small sample size and reliance on lecturer self-reports, suggesting future research should incorporate student perspectives.

Abstract

This research identifies the impacts of implementing the task-based method in teaching English writing at SMA Insan Cendekia Syech Yusuf. The study addresses a research question focusing on how implementing a task-based method in teaching English writing impacts students' writing skills. The study involved two English teachers and four SMA Insan Cendekia Syech Yusuf students. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers and students, and written assignments. The findings reveal that the task-based method in teaching English writing is implemented through a structured task cycle involving pre-task, task, and post-task phases. Furthermore, the students reported positive impacts of task-based language teaching on their writing skills, particularly regarding organization, coherence, and critical thinking. However, the challenges related to language proficiency, task understanding, and time constraints were identified as barriers to full engagement. The emotional engagement varied among students, with some expressing frustration due to language limitations, while others thrived in the collaborative and problem-solving aspects of task-based language teaching. The study concludes that while the task-based method in teaching English writing shows significant potential for improving students' English writing skills, careful consideration must be given to task design, teacher support, and addressing student proficiency levels to maximize effectiveness. Future research should explore strategies for overcoming these challenges and enhancing student engagement in task-based language teaching in writing classes.

Abstract

Digital learning has become a potential learning tool since the COVID-19 pandemic that has caused the use of new technologies including digital games-based language learning. However, the implementation still has different challenges due to technical, instructional and financial barriers. Previous studies suggest exploring more teaching experiences related to the use of digital games-based language learning for future contribution.  This study aims to explore the perception of the lecturers on digital games-based language learning in higher education. To achieve this goal, this study was conducted in an Indonesian higher education, the State University of Makassar by applying a qualitative case study to collect data. The researcher collected the data from 2 lecturers recruited using a convenient sampling technique. The thematic analysis was used to analyze the collected data.  This study explores teacher experiences in using digital games-based language learning in a speaking classroom. This study found that the lecturers perceived that Digital Games-Based Language learning (DGBLL) is useful, easy to use, and have a positive attitude toward its use. From this result, it is claimed academically that digital games-based language learning (DGBLL) can be used in speaking classrooms and modified based on learning objectives, learning outcomes and students’ learning needs.

Abstract

This study explores the challenges and adaptive strategies employed by lecturers in implementing hybrid learning for English for Business (EfB) instruction within an Indonesian higher education context. Grounded in Connectivism, Sociocultural Theory, and Bloom’s revised taxonomy, the study employs a qualitative descriptive design involving semi-structured interviews with four experienced EfB lecturers, classroom observations, and document analysis. Thematic analysis revealed four interrelated domains: (1) disparities in access to technology and digital fluency, (2) limited interactional engagement in online settings, (3) underdeveloped information-management skills among students, and (4) lecturer readiness and workload concerns in hybrid environments. Findings indicate that infrastructural limitations and the digital divide significantly constrain equitable participation and pragmatic language use in hybrid classrooms. However, proactive instructional strategies such as the provision of offline materials, structured micro-tasks, and embedded digital literacy training can mitigate these challenges. The study underscores the centrality of technological, pedagogical, and institutional connectivity in shaping hybrid learning outcomes. It contributes to the growing body of HyFlex and ESP scholarship by offering context-rich insights from the Global South and provides implications for educators, institutional leaders, and policymakers seeking to design inclusive and resilient hybrid learning systems.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of an online-based hybrid learning model on students’ self-confidence in speaking English as a foreign language. Conducted at Universitas Negeri Makassar, the research involved 20 second-semester English education students enrolled in an Interactive Speaking course. Employing a qualitative approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analysed using NVivo software to uncover themes related to learners' confidence levels. The hybrid learning model integrated both synchronous platforms (e.g., Zoom, Google Meet, WhatsApp) and asynchronous tools (e.g., Google Classroom, Instagram, YouTube, SYAM-OK), offering students flexibility and multiple forms of engagement. Findings revealed three distinct self-confidence profiles among students high, moderate, and low. Students with high self-confidence reported enhanced participation and reduced anxiety due to the hybrid model's supportive structure. Those with moderate self-confidence highlighted the benefits of decreased social pressure and the ability to control their learning environment. In contrast, students with low self-confidence continued to struggle despite the flexible format, citing persistent fear of judgment and speaking errors. The study concludes that while online-based hybrid learning can effectively foster self-confidence in speaking for many students, it may not suffice for learners with deeply rooted anxiety. These findings underscore the need for tailored pedagogical strategies that combine technological affordances with targeted confidence-building interventions to ensure inclusive and effective language instruction.

Abstract

This study examined the strategies used by English teachers to shape student discipline at SMPN 3 Polewali, focusing on methods such as self-directed, student-directed, and situation-directed strategies, as well as rewards and punishments. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through classroom observations, teacher interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that teachers involved students in creating classroom rules, fostering a sense of responsibility. Positive reinforcement, including praise and additional grades, effectively motivated students, while non-verbal cues like eye contact helped maintain classroom order. Teachers also used specific punishments, such as vocabulary memorization, for recurrent discipline issues. Among these methods, reward strategies proved to be the most influential in encouraging student discipline, as they fostered intrinsic motivation and reinforced positive behavior in a conducive learning environment.

Abstract

The research aims to find out whether or not the outdoor learning method is effective in improving students’ English-speaking skills. The researcher applied the pre-experimental method, and to achieve the research objectives, data collection was conducted through a pre-test and a post-test. The population of this study is all of the year 10th of SMAN 7 Bulukumba students, and the sample of this study consisted of 35 students of class X.1 in that school was recruited with the cluster random sampling technique. After being analyzed with a T-Test, the results of the pre-test and post-test of students’ English-speaking skills through the outdoor learning method indicate that the probability value, which is 0.001, was significantly lower than the level of significance (0.05). Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted, and after being analyzed with the N-Gain value, the results showed that the improvement that occurred in the speaking skills of the sample group was low. This implies that the outdoor learning method may need to be combined with other strategies to achieve better results, especially in improving students' speaking, and this method will be taken into consideration for teachers in designing more interesting and interactive learning activities. Therefore, it can be concluded that outdoor learning is effective in improving students' English-speaking skills.
