Abstract

The integration of technology in language teaching has become increasingly important to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. This study examined the effect of interactive video-based learning on students’ English learning outcomes at SMA N 2 Kulisusu Utara, Southeast Sulawesi. Employing a one-group pretest-posttest pre-experimental design, the research involved the entire population of 17 students in Class XI. Interactive videos, developed using Canva and Edpuzzle with embedded quizzes, subtitles, and interactive tasks aligned with the 2022 Merdeka Curriculum, were implemented over eight weeks. English learning outcomes were measured through a validated achievement test covering vocabulary mastery, grammar, reading comprehension, and listening skills. Data were analysed using paired sample t-test with SPSS version 26. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ English learning outcomes after the intervention (pretest mean = 64.12, SD = 8.45; post-test mean = 81.76, SD = 7.23; t = 9.87, p < 0.001). Additionally, students reported high positive perceptions toward the learning media. These findings indicate that interactive video-based learning is an effective and engaging instructional strategy for improving English proficiency in senior high school settings, particularly in resource-limited madrasah environments. The study recommends wider adoption of interactive video technology and further research with larger samples and control groups.

Abstract

This study investigates how parenting styles shape students’ motivation to learn English in an Indonesian vocational high school. Adopting a qualitative phenomenological approach, the study involved seven students, seven parents, and two English teachers. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and field notes, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that students’ motivation was dynamic and context-dependent, with stronger engagement at school than at home. In the classroom, motivation was reflected in active participation, peer interaction, persistence, and future-oriented goals. At home, motivation tended to weaken because of limited parental monitoring and the lack of structured learning routines. Although parents provided little direct academic supervision, they influenced motivation indirectly through reminders, encouragement, recognition of effort, and support for study time and space. These practices supported students’ needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. In addition, teacher support, classroom climate, peer interaction, and future aspirations played a compensatory role when home support was limited. The study contributes to the EFL motivation literature by showing that motivation is both psychologically experienced and behaviorally observable, emerging through the interaction of family practices, school environment, and personal goals.

Abstract

Effective classroom interaction in English language learning requires pragmatic competence, including the appropriate use of politeness strategies. However, research on EFL teachers' politeness strategies in vocational high school classrooms within local cultural contexts remains limited. This study aimed to explore the politeness strategies employed by EFL teachers and examine the influence of local cultural values on their classroom communication practices. A qualitative case study design was employed involving three English teachers at a vocational high school in Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations and analysed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña. Findings revealed that positive politeness strategies were most predominantly used, while negative politeness and off-record strategies served to maintain discipline and protect students' feelings. Local cultural values emphasizing respect, courtesy, and harmony also shaped teachers' communication practices. Politeness functions as both a sociocultural and pedagogical resource, indicating that teacher professional development programs should integrate politeness awareness and local cultural values.

Abstract

Heritage language loss among immigrant and diaspora communities represents a critical challenge to cultural identity, intergenerational communication, and cognitive diversity. Traditional heritage language maintenance approaches face significant barriers including limited resources, lack of qualified instructors, geographic dispersion, and competing demands of dominant language acquisition. This study investigates the effectiveness of bilingual digital story applications as innovative tools for heritage language maintenance among children aged 4-12 years. Through a 24-month longitudinal mixed-methods study involving 1,843 families across eight language communities (Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic, Korean, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Hindi, and Polish), we examined language proficiency development, cultural identity formation, family engagement patterns, and app usage behaviors. Quantitative analysis of pre- and post-intervention language assessments revealed statistically significant improvements in heritage language vocabulary (effect size d=0.68), listening comprehension (d=0.54), and oral production (d=0.47) among children using bilingual story apps for at least 20 minutes daily. Qualitative findings from parent interviews and child focus groups highlighted the apps' role in making heritage language learning enjoyable, facilitating parent-child interaction, connecting children to cultural narratives, and normalizing bilingualism. However, effectiveness varied substantially based on app design features, with interactive elements, culturally authentic content, parent involvement scaffolds, and adaptive difficulty showing strongest associations with outcomes. This research demonstrates that thoughtfully designed bilingual story apps can serve as accessible, scalable tools for heritage language maintenance, though they function most effectively as complements to rather than substitutes for rich home language environments and community connections. The study contributes empirical evidence to inform app development, family language planning, and policies supporting linguistic diversity in increasingly globalized societies.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the impact of migration-induced language contact on the linguistic identity of the Tolaki community in Moramo, Southeast Sulawesi. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected from 15 Tolaki participants through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and field notes. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that migration has intensified language contact and increased the use of the Indonesian language in public and interethnic communication. Although the Tolaki language remains an important marker of ethnic identity, its use among younger generations has declined. Nevertheless, the community continues to maintain its linguistic identity through family communication, cultural practices, and strategic bilingualism. The study concludes that migration reshapes language practices while linguistic identity remains resilient despite growing sociolinguistic challenges.

Abstract

Although previous studies have extensively examined Javanese language shift, bilingualism, and identity negotiation, limited attention has been given to the maintenance of Javanese within ritual domains among transmigrant communities outside Java. This study investigates the use and preservation of Javanese in traditional rituals and ceremonies practiced by Javanese transmigrant communities in Lalembuu Sub-Regency, South Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Drawing on language maintenance, ethnolinguistics, and language ideology perspectives, the study explores how Javanese functions as a cultural resource for sustaining collective identity, social relationships, and symbolic meanings. A descriptive qualitative approach with ethnolinguistic methods was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving 45 informants from Javanese transmigrant villages in Kecamatan Lalembuu. The findings indicate that Javanese remains an important cultural medium in four major ritual domains: agricultural ceremonies, including slametan panen and wiwitan; life-cycle rituals, including birth, circumcision, and marriage ceremonies; communal safety prayers, such as kenduren and manakiban; and ancestral commemoration practices, particularly sedekah bumi. Despite prolonged interaction with Bali, Sunda, and Bugis communities, Javanese transmigrants continue to preserve specialized sacred registers, particularly Krama and Krama Inggil, while using mixed Javanese–Indonesian varieties in everyday communication. The selective use of ritual Javanese reflects a strong language ideology associating sacred speech with respect, spiritual authority, and ancestral legitimacy. Ritual language therefore strengthens ethnic identity, intergenerational transmission, and communal solidarity, demonstrating its role as an important form of cultural resilience in transmigrant communities.
