Abstract

IELTS merupakan tes yang sering digunakan untuk beragam kepentingan, seperti seleksi beasiswa, admisi ke program pascasarjana, prasyarat imigrasi, dsb. Hal ini membuat IELTS menjadi salah satu tes yang populer di dunia. Sayangnya, banyak peserta tes IELTS dari Indonesia masih sering mengalami kesulitan untuk memperoleh nilai tes IELTS yang memuaskan, sehingga berpotensi mengalami kesulitan untuk memenuhi keperluannya (studi lanjut, migrasi, dll). Selain itu, program kursus yang tersedia dipasaran sangat variatif dari segi harga, kualitas, hingga aksesibilitasnya. Untuk merespon permasalahan ini, diadakanlah kegiatan pengabdian dalam bentuk pelatihan IELTS writing bagi 40 orang peserta selama 10 sesi, atau setara dengan 20 jam pelatihan. Perbandingan hasil pre-test dan post-test memperlihatkan adanya rata-rata peningkatan performa peserta sebesar 0.88 band. Respon peserta pada kuesioner evaluasi program juga memperlihatkan bahwa mayoritas peserta merasa puas dan merasakan manfaat dari pelatihan dan feedback yang diberikan. Diharapkan dari pelatihan ini peserta dapat menjadi lebih siap untuk mengikuti tes IELTS dan dapat memperoleh nilai yang diharapkan.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between vocabulary mastery and plagiarism among university students. Conducted at a private university in West Jakarta, Indonesia, it involved 71 students from various majors enrolled in a rhetoric and composition course. Using iThenticate to measure plagiarism and the Vocabulary Levels Test (VLT) to assess vocabulary proficiency, the research found a low average plagiarism rate of 11.56% in the students' essays. The study revealed no significant correlation between vocabulary mastery and the extent of plagiarism. Additionally, no substantial difference was observed in the amount of plagiarized content between students with lower and higher vocabulary proficiency. These findings suggest that vocabulary mastery alone may not be a significant factor in determining plagiarism behaviors, highlighting the multifaceted nature of plagiarism. The study underscores the need for further research into other potential contributors to plagiarism, such as psychological factors and cultural influences, and emphasizes the importance of teaching proper citation practices to combat academic dishonesty.

Abstract

Since its launch in late 2022, the use of ChatGPT has garnered controversies despite its benefits and potential in helping foreign language study. While many scholars have warned against its risk to academic integrity, there are only a few studies investigating the perception of Indonesian higher education students in using ChatGPT. This article examines the perceptions of Indonesian higher education students in using ChatGPT by utilizing open-ended questions distributed via Google Form. Data from 16 participants currently enrolled in a hospitality study program were gathered. All participants reported that they mostly use ChatGPT to assist them with university assignments. For language study, nine students reported that they found it useful, especially to learn new vocabulary and its straightforward explanation compared to the teacher’s explanation. More studies are needed to explore how English learners can gain benefits by using ChatGPT and how teachers can utilize ChatGPT to explore more alternatives in promoting learner’s autonomy and more enhanced learning experience.

Abstract

Foreign language writing can be a challenging and emotionally complex experience for learners. In fact, the literature has shown that learners’ emotions significantly influence foreign language acquisitionDespite the acknowledged influence of emotions in language learning, research specifically examining the interplay between proficiency, enjoyment, and boredom in EFL writing contexts, particularly among Indonesian university students, remains scarce. This correlational study investigated the interrelations between language proficiency, foreign language writing enjoyment (FLWE), and foreign language writing boredom (FLWB) among university students in Indonesia. The Oxford Quick Placement Test (QPT) was utilized to assess the participants’ proficiency level, while FLWE and FLWB scales were used to measure emotional dimensions. The findings revealed moderate positive correlations between proficiency and FLWE (r = .48, p < .01) and moderate negative correlations between proficiency and FLWB (r = -.58, p < .001). Additionally, a significant inverse relationship between FLWE and FLWB (r = -.53, p = .001) was identified. These findings suggest that higher proficiency fosters greater enjoyment and reduces boredom in writing activities. Implications for educators include scaffolding tasks to match proficiency levels and fostering positive learning environments to enhance engagement.
