Abstract

This research is based on the rapid development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the education sector. Developing a web-based English learning platform tailored to vocational students not only meets the demand for innovative educational solutions but also improves their language competence and prepares them for the job market. It also promotes access, scalability, 21st-century skills, and real-life issues, and helps shape what a modern, accessible, 21st-century education is like. This study aims to contribute to addressing the increasingly widespread demand for ICT integration in education, especially in vocational higher education, and to reconcile technology with human resource development. The study's objective was to develop a web-based learning platform, "Gamal Station," focused on English language instruction for vocational students. The study employed a Design and Development (D&D) research approach, following a structured analysis, design, and development method. The resulting product, Gamal Station, offers features for learning English, including content, exercises, and assessments that can be accessed anytime, anywhere. Expert validation of both the material and the media verified the tool's effectiveness and usability, classifying it as a suitable educational resource. Nevertheless, some minor challenges, such as network limitations and necessary interface modifications, were noted during the evaluation. The application demonstrated significant potential to enhance English teaching and learning outcomes following adjustments. This research highlights the need to employ innovative, accessible educational tools in vocational training to meet diverse learner needs and support contemporary teaching methods. The affirmation of Gamal Station represents progress in the creation of ICT-based educational resources, setting the stage for broader adoption in vocational institutions and encouraging more inclusive and effective English language instruction.

Abstract

Indonesian Language is playing a crucial role as a unifying tool and the official language for government communications as stated at Article 36 of the 1945 Constitution of Indonesia. However, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) designates six official languages: French, English, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, and Chinese, to facilitate communication among its 193 member states. This study employs a qualitative design, utilizing document analysis and interviews to explore the potential strategies for improving English language proficiency in the aviation sector. The results indicate that to enhance English proficiency among aviation personnel in Indonesia, tailored ESP Programs, simulation-based training, regular assessments, and blended learning approaches should be implemented. Collaborations with international organizations and support from the government will further ensure alignment with ICAO standards, fostering effective communication in critical situations. The discussion highlights the importance of English proficiency at Indonesian airports for providing directions and services, in compliance with Indonesia's ratification of ICAO's six languages. This study recommends some potential strategies to strengthening English language education in Indonesia's aviation sector to support effective international communication and enhance service quality at airports, aligning with ICAO standards.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the adaptation of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners to AI-based writing tools in academic context. Although AI-based writing tools were progressively implemented into language education, limited research has explored how EFL learners interpreted and adapted to these tools. In particular, structured frameworks are infrequently applied to comprehensively analyze this perception. The study employed a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis to investigate EFL learners’ perceptions of AI writing tools such as Chat-GPT, Grammarly, or Quillbot. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews involving 25 university EFL students. The findings uncovered that students conceived time efficiency and instant grammar feedback as key strengths. In contrast, excessive reliance and deficiency of deep academic understanding were seen as major weaknesses. Opportunities comprised enhanced writing confidence and facilitated idea generation and structured academic writing, while threats focus on diminished critical thinking and passive plagiarism. The results emphasized the demand for ethical pedagogical strategies to guide AI integration in language education.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in higher and vocational education, yet its rapid adoption often outpaces existing legal and institutional frameworks. This study investigates how Indonesia’s regulatory landscape supports the integration of AI in teaching and learning at Politeknik Penerbangan Makassar (Poltekbang Makassar), and identifies the legal, ethical, and governance challenges shaping responsible innovation. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research combines document analysis of key national policies (such as the National Education System Law 2003, Presidential Regulation No. 95/2018, and the National AI Strategy 2020–2045) with semi-structured interviews involving five lecturers and two academic policymakers. Data were analyzed thematically. The results reveal that while Indonesia’s legal foundations implicitly support AI adoption through broader digital transformation policies, significant regulatory gaps persist, particularly concerning algorithmic transparency, accountability, and data privacy. Institutional policies at Poltekbang Makassar demonstrate readiness for technological innovation but lack comprehensive AI governance mechanisms. The study proposes a multi-level regulatory model encompassing national policy formulation, sectoral alignment within vocational standards, and internal institutional governance frameworks to ensure accountability, fairness, and compliance. These findings contribute to the development of an Institutional AI Governance Framework based on principles of accountability, transparency, and compliance with the Personal Data Protection Law, offering a practical roadmap for policymakers and educational leaders in Indonesia’s vocational sector.Keywords: Artificial Intelligence (AI), AI Governance, Vocational Education, Poltekbang Makassar, Algorithmic Accountability

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of community social construction in the implementation of child protection policies in Indonesia, focusing on public perceptions, participation, and social practices at the local level. Despite the existence of comprehensive child protection regulations, cases of violence against children remain high, indicating a persistent gap between normative policies and their practical implementation. This research employed a qualitative case study approach conducted in three major Indonesian cities: Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Makassar. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving community members, educators, government officials, and child protection stakeholders. The findings reveal that cultural norms, educational background, and access to information significantly influence community understanding of child protection policies. Although most participants were aware of child protection regulations, active involvement in violence prevention and reporting mechanisms remained limited. The study also found that violence-based parenting practices are still socially normalized in some communities, hindering effective policy implementation. The study concludes that strengthening community engagement, cross-sector collaboration, and public education is essential to improving the effectiveness of child protection policies and fostering a child-friendly social environment in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines at the sociolinguistic phenomena of code-switching among English-Buginese bilingual university students, with a focus on how it helps them negotiate their identities in academic and social settings. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected from simulated but contextually authentic interactions such as classroom discussions, peer conversations, and semi-structured interviews. Based on Gumperz's (1982) interactional sociolinguistics and Myers-Scotton's (1993) markedness model, the analysis identified three types of code-switching: inter-sentential, intra-sentential, and tag-switching. The findings show that in academic settings, English is frequently employed to communicate formality, academic authority, and alignment with global academic discourse, whereas Buginese is utilized to maintain solidarity, cultural identity, and shared heritage. In social situations, code-switching promotes humor, emotional expression, and pragmatic efficiency. Switching can be triggered by topic switches, lexical gaps, emphasis, or audience adjustment. The findings show that code-switching is not just a linguistic alternation, but also a conscious communicative resource for identity formation. These findings help to better understand bilingual language behaviors in multilingual societies and have implications for bilingual education and language policy in Indonesia.
