Abstract

This study explores vocational high school students’ experiences in learning English speaking through Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT). Many students face difficulties in speaking due to limited practice, anxiety, and fear of making mistakes. The research aimed to understand their feelings, challenges, and reflections during TBLT-based speaking lessons. A qualitative case study design was used, involving six tenth-grade students selected purposively based on their speaking levels (low, medium, high) as recommended by their English teacher. Data were collected through classroom observation and interviews, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The results showed that students had mostly positive experiences. They enjoyed practical tasks and peer interaction, which reduced anxiety and built confidence. However, they also struggled with vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar, especially without clear instructions. Students suggested that tasks should be more relevant to their majors. Teachers are advised to design clearer, more contextual tasks and provide support in language use to optimize TBLT outcomes.

Abstract

This narrative inquiry delves into the lived experience of an English teacher navigating the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) to enhance speaking competence within a unique, nature- and science-integrated high school in Indonesia. Addressing the pedagogical gap prevalent in traditional EFL settings—characterized by limited authentic exposure and teacher-cantered methods—the study sought to illuminate the teacher’s practices, the specific challenges encountered in a non-conventional context, and the adaptive strategies employed. Utilizing a qualitative methodology, data were meticulously collected through semi-structured interviews, intensive classroom observations, and document analysis (including lesson plans and project artifacts). The findings unequivocally demonstrate that PjBL is instrumental in promoting authentic language use and heightened student engagement through real-life tasks, such as presentation and video projects. Crucially, the teacher adopted dynamic, constructivist roles—shifting fluidly between facilitator, guide, and evaluator. The primary implementation hurdles identified were stringent time management demands, accommodating diverse speaking proficiency levels, and managing fluctuating student motivation. These were mitigated successfully via adaptive lesson planning, targeted group scaffolding, the strategic integration of digital tools, and the consistent provision of immediate feedback. This research provides a teacher-centered perspective that significantly contributes to the literature by validating PjBL’s efficacy and adaptability within complex, interdisciplinary EFL environments.

Abstract

Gender biases and stereotypes are still prevalent in language textbooks, although a few studies have identified instances of positive representation. This study investigates gender representation in the 7th-grade of Indonesian EFL textbooks published by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (MONECRT), which recently published with the new guideline of Merdeka Curriculum. Focusing on the portrayal of gendered character activities and domestic roles, the study employs critical discourse analysis (CDA) to examine both visual and verbal representations. Guided by Fairclough's three-dimensional framework and Van Leeuwen's elements of social practice, the findings revealed that activities portrayal of female was stereotyped as passive, dependent, needing others and characterized more evaluative. Furthermore, male portrayed as hasty and having poor time management. In contrast, the domestic role of gender portrayed equal as both father and mother depicted with housework activities including cooking and cleaning. To sum up, the portrayals of gendered character activities often perpetuate entrenched stereotypes, while emerging discourse shows positive representations of domestic roles. This study underscores the significance of increased awareness among teachers and textbook developers regarding gender-related issues in English education.
