Abstract

Although many studies focus on enhancing resource assistance and the advancement of adult learners' knowledge and abilities, there is a paucity of studies on the theoretical views that define strategies for assisting adults in learning independently. To fill this gap, this study draws on previous research to elaborate on why metacognitive strategies are suitable for adults’ self-regulated learning (SRL), and how metacognitive strategies promote SRL. As this study employed a systematic review, a rigorous search scheme was implemented across multiple databases, resulting in the selection of relevant studies based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The selected articles were assessed for quality, and data extraction was performed to identify key characteristics of the studies. The synthesis of the existing literature underscores the suitability of metacognitive strategies in EFL adult learners' self-regulated learning. The findings reveal that incorporating metacognitive strategies helps cultivate SRL in EFL adult learners, owing to their cognitive maturity, pre-existing knowledge, and life experiences. In addition, the metacognitive strategy helps EFL adult learners enhance their awareness of cognitive processes, regulate learning behaviours, and optimize language learning outcomes. Regarding the role, metacognitive strategy is one of the key components of SRL. Some practical recommendations are made to support teachers in facilitating adults’ self-regulated language learning.

Abstract

Although Higher-Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) has currently been an ongoing topic of interest among educational researchers, there has been no wide exploration of such notion and its relation to the learning assessment. This instrumental case study aimed to investigate attitudes of Indonesian pre-service English teachers with reference to using HOTS-based test to prepare better assessment. The study was qualitatively conducted to scrutinize the participants’ attitudes on using the HOTS framework in designing more qualified assessment for students. The data were obtained through interview and questionnaire. The total of 10 preservice teachers participating in the study were purposively chosen regarding their familiarity and comprehension with the study issue. The data were analyzed by employing descriptive qualitative data analysis. The result indicated that in spite of some situational restrictions, all of the participants shared their positive attitude towards HOTS principles to be adopted in providing better assessment from the affective, behavioral and cognitive points of view due to some influencing factors. More researches on the area of HOTS and its implementation on the area of assessment were also expected to furnish more contributive information in this issue.

Abstract

Although research on TPACK in education has been done, limited studies have explored the application of TPACK in the EFL classroom within an Indonesian context. The aim of this research was to narrate the story of an experienced English teacher who encountered challenges in implementing the TPACK framework, and to reveal the advantages of utilizing the TPACK framework in the Indonesian teaching context. The researcher collected data using a set of steps consist semi-structure interviews, observations, and document analysis.  An English teacher working in an Indonesian setting was selected to take part in this narrative inquiry. The interview information was examined using thematic analysis. The research discovered that applying the TPACK model was a complicated process hindered by internal and external barriers. On the other hand, using the TPACK framework offers advantages to both students and teachers, including increased motivation, a more engaging and flexible learning environment, and prospects to create multimedia resources. The results offer valuable insights for English teachers in developing nations about integration of TPACK in English instruction.

Abstract

The signs materialized in the linguistic landscape (LL) symbolize what people believe about the language. Hence, most studies of LL focus on both language use and language ideology. While the study of LL is quite general worldwide, it is relatively new in East Nusa Tenggara, especially for those investigating LL in the educational setting. This study aimed to 1) find what language patterns and languages are exposed in the LL of the educational setting in Maumere City, NTT province, and 2) find the language ideology as the basis of why certain language was used and other language was rarely used. This research employed a qualitative case study. Data were obtained through documentation and interviews with 9 informants from 8 high schools and 1 university. The data were analyzed in three steps of qualitative data analysis: data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicated that there were three sign patterns, namely, monolingual, bilingual, and multilingual signs. There were 7 languages used in the three sign patterns above, namely Indonesian, English, Indigenous languages, Sanskrit, Japanese, German, and Latin. The situation represented through the school and university landscape manifested the language ideology. Interviews with informants revealed four main themes: language policy influencing language practice, language as a learning tool, language as a school identity marker, and language as a symbol of culture. These results are expected to provide a wider insight into the LL study in Indonesia.

Abstract

Despite many studies addressing writing materials in English language learning textbooks in the Indonesian context, few reported the conformity of the English writing materials in senior high school textbooks intended for the 2013 curriculum to the genre of written language paradigm. The present study critically analyzed the existing writing materials covered in Indonesian senior high school textbooks. The data sources for this research were three English textbooks designed for three levels of senior high school students in Indonesia. The writing materials were selected from the textbooks as the representatives of the analysis objects. The data were analyzed following content analysis by integrating Brown (2004) as the conceptual framework. The results reveal that the writing materials are consistent with the framework. The books cover all text genres, including academic, professional, and personal writing. However, not all framework-informed sub-categories of texts are reflected in the writing materials of the examined textbooks. In addition, the evaluated textbooks emphasize student exposure to intensive writing tasks (grammatical transformation, short-answer sentence completion, and picture-cued tasks) and extensive writing tasks (paragraph construction, guided question and answer, and paraphrasing). These results highlight the need to align textbooks with the curriculum genre of the written language paradigm and to balance intensive and extensive writing tasks to prepare students for real-life writing situations.
