Abstract

This qualitative descriptive study investigates the application of English-speaking skills in authentic service encounters at the Tourist Information Centre (TIC) in Banyuwangi, East Java. Drawing on approximately 10 observed interactions with both domestic and international tourists—including visitors from Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia—the study identifies four key stages of communication: information delivery, feedback provision, negotiation, and agreement confirmation. These stages reveal the strategic use of clarification, turn-taking, and negotiation techniques in real-time exchanges. The findings suggest that effective and adaptive spoken English significantly contributes to improved service quality and tourist satisfaction. By analyzing how TIC staff engage in interactive speaking practices, this research highlights the practical importance of communicative competence in tourism settings and provides insights for English for Specific Purposes (ESP) education.

Abstract

Code-switching is an exciting phenomenon in the English classroom, especially in multilingual settings. While it is being practiced, several types of it have appeared. Dealing with the previous phenomenon, this research is intended to describe the types of code-switching used by the English teacher while conducting English classrooms. Descriptive research was used as the framework of this study to cope with the earlier goal. In collecting the data, the audio recording was used to record the classroom conversation and then transcribed into written form. After that, the data was analyzed. Furthermore, the findings highlight that the teacher uses three types of code-switching: tag-switching, inter-sentential switching, and intra-sentential switching. Also, this study reclassified the tag-switching into tag-switching with tag-phrase at the initial and the end of the sentence. Then, it regrouped inter-sentential switching into inter-sentential switching between clause and sentence and inter-sentential switching between two sentences. Last, it recategorized intra-sentential switching into intra-sentential switching with embedded words and intra-sentential switching with the inserted words. By describing the previous findings, it is hoped that types of code-switching can be clearly understood.

Abstract

This study explores the pivotal role of language in fostering cross-cultural appreciation among Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards (IISMA) awardees. We examined the experiences of two awardees of prestigious international exchange programs to understand how language acquisition and use influenced their cultural perceptions and interactions. Using a mixed-methods approach, we conducted in-depth interviews and administered surveys to gather data on the participants’ language learning journeys, intercultural communications, and shifts in cultural perspectives. The selected participants represented diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds and completed exchanges in countries where they needed to navigate a foreign language. Our findings reveal that language proficiency significantly enhanced the awardees’ ability to appreciate and engage with host cultures. Key themes emerged, including: 1) the role of language as a gateway to deeper cultural understanding; 2) Challenges and breakthroughs in intercultural communication; 3) The impact of idiomatic expressions on cultural insight; 4) Changes in self-perception and cultural identity through language learning; and 5) The development of empathy and cultural relativism. Quantitative data indicated a strong positive correlation between language proficiency and measures of cultural appreciation. Qualitative analysis provided rich insights into the nuanced ways language shaped the awardees’ cross-cultural experiences. This research contributes to our understanding of the intricate relationship between language and culture in international education contexts. It offers valuable implications for enhancing student exchange programs and promoting global citizenship through targeted language and cultural learning strategies.

Abstract

The dynamic application of digital learning platforms, including innovative systems like Wayground, has significantly transformed the administration of English language tests such as the English Proficiency Test (EPT). As technology becomes increasingly integrated into educational environments, digital assessment tools are no longer optional but essential for supporting efficient and standardized testing practices. This study explores students’ perceptions of Wayground, a next-generation online platform used to conduct the EPT at Politeknik Negeri Jember. Using a quantitative approach, data were gathered from 217 students across nine departments through structured questionnaires. The results indicate that most respondents appreciate Wayground for its practicality, efficiency, and engaging user interface. Although some minor technical challenges were identified, the majority of participants expressed satisfaction with both the platform’s features and its exam supervision services. Overall, Wayground is viewed as a reliable, accessible, and user-friendly platform with strong potential to enhance digital transformation in English language assessment.  The future implementations of the English Proficiency Test should continue leveraging digital platforms like Wayground while simultaneously refining test content difficulty and strengthening technical and support infrastructures to ensure a more balanced, reliable, and equitable assessment experience for all participants.

Abstract

English proficiency is one of the essential competencies for young generations in today’s global context. However, the reality in rural areas of Indonesia indicates that English learning still faces various limitations, particularly in terms of teaching methods, supporting facilities, and the integration of character education. This community service program aimed to improve basic English skills while fostering positive character values among elementary to lower secondary school students through the implementation of a game-based learning approach at Yayasan Tanoker Ledokombo, Kabupaten Jember, as the community partner. The program was conducted through three main stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The results revealed an increase in students’ active participation, learning motivation, and understanding of basic English vocabulary and expressions. Additionally, collaborative game-based activities contributed to the development of character values, including cooperation, responsibility, and sportsmanship. These findings suggest that game-based learning serves as an effective and relevant approach to English language learning in supporting character development within non-formal rural education settings.
