Abstract

Teacher professional identity and agency play crucial roles in shaping educational practices, particularly in faith-based education, where values, beliefs, and institutional expectations intersect. This study employs the Delphi method to explore the perspectives of educators, administrators, and scholars on the formation and enactment of teacher identity and agency within faith-based educational settings. Through iterative rounds of expert input, key themes emerge, including the influence of religious doctrine on pedagogical decisions, the negotiation of personal and institutional values, and the role of community engagement in reinforcing professional identity. The findings highlight the dynamic, context-dependent nature of teacher agency, underscoring the need for supportive institutional structures that foster autonomy while maintaining alignment with faith-based principles. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how educators navigate their professional roles within religious educational contexts, offering insights for policy and teacher development programs.

Abstract

This study examines the role of digital tools in fostering undergraduate students' thesis writing process. While digital tools are now widely applied in academia, limited studies have focused on how these tools impact the quality of students' theses and the challenges they encounter. The qualitative case study design involving 7th-semester students from the English Education Department at an Islamic higher education institution in Ponorogo was employed to explore their perceptions of digital tools through questionnaires, observations, and in-depth interviews. The findings indicated that students use various digital tools, including word processors, reference management software, and data analysis programs. The result of thematic analysis revealed that students perceived digital tools to facilitate the quality, effectiveness, organization of thesis work, and motivation. Although some students faced technical difficulties, unfamiliarity with advanced software features, and resource constraints, they believed learning with digital tools positively influenced their academic performance. The study contributes valuable insights for educators and institutions, informing strategies to optimize the use of digital tools in thesis writing.

Abstract

This study analyzes how and why writing instructors provide written corrective feedback (WCF) on academic writing tasks. It was an ethnography study conducted by the Department of English Education at University in Semarang, Indonesia. This study investigated and analyzed the attitudes of teachers to get insight into classroom methods for delivering written corrective feedback (CF) on student writing. The major objective of the study was to evaluate instructors' beliefs and practices. Therefore, the teachers' perspectives on providing written corrective feedback (WCF) were required to determine the true answers and provide corrective feedback. The conceptual basis for this study was developed from Borg's (2003) concept of teacher cognition (beliefs) and practices, as well as the impediments to written CF reported by several writers. This recent study conducted interviews with three English Education Department instructors who instructed writing classes. This investigation utilized classroom observation, the think-aloud technique, and in-depth interviews. The data was examined using Spradley's technique (1979, 1980). The study of the data revealed both congruence and discord between the beliefs and actions of lecturers. For instance, the instructors' focus and number of writing CF were consistent. In addition, it was demonstrated that extraneous influences affected the lecturers' application of their theories.
