Abstract

This study examines the role of Maluku local wisdom, specifically "Kalesang" values, in enhancing students' descriptive writing competence through the FRESH technique among introverted and extroverted learners. This research aims to develop a culturally responsive and personality-sensitive pedagogy that integrates linguistic skills, cultural identity, and individual learning styles. Hence, this qualitative case study enlisted eight ninth-grade students from a junior high school in Masohi, Maluku, Indonesia. The data were collected through students’ writing products, in-depth interviews, and classroom observations. Afterward, the data were analyzed using a thematic analysis through the theoretical lens of sociocultural theory, differentiated instruction, and multiple intelligences theory. The results indicate that combining structured writing strategies with local values enhances coherence and elaboration in student texts, while also deepening cultural awareness and learner motivation. This study contributes to language education research by offering a replicable model for integrating indigenous knowledge with evidence-based pedagogy, promoting inclusive and meaningful learning in diverse EFL classrooms.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of oral and written feedback on writing apprehension among introvert and extrovert EFL students using a 2 x 2 factorial design. A total of 108 university students, 47 introverts and 61 extroverts identified using the Eysenck Personality Inventory, participated in the study. Writing apprehension was measured using a validated questionnaire after students received both oral and written feedback during writing instruction. Paired samples t-tests revealed that introvert students experienced significantly higher writing apprehension when receiving oral feedback (t = 6.82, p < .001), while extrovert students reported significantly higher apprehension with written feedback (t = 4.23, p < .001). Two-way ANOVA results revealed significant main effects of personality type (F = 10.321, p = .002) and feedback mode (F = 5.921, p = .027). Importantly, a significant interaction effect was also found between personality type and feedback mode (F = 10.567, p = .002), indicating that students’ responses to feedback varied depending on their personality. Specifically, introvert students reported greater writing apprehension with oral feedback, whereas extrovert students experienced more apprehension with written feedback. These findings underscore the importance of adapting feedback strategies to individual learner characteristics. Tailoring feedback to align with students’ personality traits can help reduce writing apprehension and enhance instructional effectiveness in EFL writing classrooms.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of Structured Visual Mapping as a prewriting strategy to enhance the narrative writing quality of senior high school EFL learners in Indonesia. Many students face challenges in developing ideas, organizing narrative elements, and applying appropriate vocabulary and grammar when composing narrative texts. Using a quasi-experimental design, 60 eleventh-grade students from SMA Negeri 1 Marioriwawo were divided into an experimental group taught using Structured Visual Mapping and a control group taught through conventional instruction. Pretests and posttests were administered, and students’ writing performance was assessed using the ESL Composition Profile. The results show that the experimental group achieved significantly higher improvement across all five writing components, with a mean gain of 9.3 compared to 1.9 in the control group. The posttest t-test value (t = 2.024 > 2.000) confirmed that the intervention had a significant effect on students’ writing performance. These findings indicate that Structured Visual Mapping effectively supports students in generating ideas, sequencing narrative structure, and improving lexical and grammatical accuracy. This study recommends integrating Structured Visual Mapping into narrative writing instruction and suggests further exploration of its application in other writing genres or digital learning contexts.

Abstract

Language assessment is a crucial component of effective language teaching. However, many pre-service teachers lack sufficient training in assessment practices, resulting in a gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. This study explores how pre-service teachers perceive the effectiveness of a project-based approach to designing and administering real-world language assessments and examines the challenges they face. Combining a closed questionnaire and semi-structured interviews, the study gathers quantitative and qualitative data from twenty-five pre-service teachers. The findings revealed that hands-on involvement in assessment design enhances teachers' understanding of key assessment principles, increases confidence, and bridges the gap between theory and practice. However, participants also faced challenges, particularly in ensuring the validity and reliability of their assessments. These challenges were manageable with the support provided in the course, indicating the value of structured guidance and expert collaboration in developing assessment literacy. The findings underscore the value of integrating theory with practice in teacher training, providing important insights for language assessment education. Future research could examine larger samples, long-term impacts of such training, and the role of digital tools in developing assessment literacy.

Abstract

In the digital era, English language education is undergoing a profound transformation from traditional classrooms to smart learning environments driven by technology-based interaction. Understanding how technology-driven interaction (TDI) influences students’ learning success has become crucial in optimizing the effectiveness of modern English education. This study aimed to examine the direct and indirect effects of TDI on self-reported English learning outcomes (OUT) through the mediating roles of student engagement (ENG) and motivation (MOT). Using a quantitative design, data were collected from 300 English language learners in Pakistan and Indonesia through a structured online questionnaire and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results revealed that TDI had a significant positive impact on both ENG and MOT, which in turn strongly influenced OUT. Moreover, both ENG and MOT significantly mediated the relationship between TDI and OUT, indicating that technology enhances learning outcomes primarily by increasing students’ engagement and motivation. These findings support theoretical frameworks such as Self-Determination Theory and the Community of Inquiry model, emphasizing the psychological mechanisms linking technology use to learning success. This study contributes to the growing body of research on technology-enhanced language learning by proposing a dual mediation model that explains how digital interaction translates into measurable academic achievement. Practically, the findings highlight the need to design technology-based English learning systems that foster engagement, sustain motivation, and enhance meaningful learning outcomes in smart educational environments.

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of Maluku local wisdom into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing instruction in a junior high school in Maluku, Indonesia. It aims to explore: 1) how Maluku wisdom values can be integrated into EFL writing lessons; 2) the impact of this integration on students’ writing performance, and 3) students’ perceptions of culturally responsive writing tasks. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through classroom observation, document analysis, teacher interviews, student writing samples (pre-test and post-test), and student reflections. The data were analyzed through thematic analysis within the culturally sustaining pedagogy framework. The findings revealed that Maluku wisdom values were embedded across writing stages through culturally contextualized topics, teacher prompts, and feedback. Students’ post-integration writing showed notable improvements in content development, organization, vocabulary use, and connection to local culture. Reflections and interviews revealed that students felt more engaged, confident, and proud of expressing their identity in English. The study concludes that integrating local wisdom into EFL writing enhances both language proficiency and cultural awareness. This research contributes to the field of culturally sustaining pedagogy and highlights the importance of localizing EFL instruction to promote meaningful learning and identity formation in multilingual contexts.
