Abstract

This study examines the challenges and pedagogical needs experienced by EFL teachers in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum within a madrasah context in Indonesia. While the Merdeka Curriculum promotes student-centered, flexible, and project-based learning, empirical evidence on its implementation in Islamic senior high schools remains limited. Adopting a qualitative case study design, this research draws on in-depth interviews with two experienced English teachers at an Islamic senior high school in Indonesia to capture their lived experiences during the curriculum transition. The findings identify four interrelated categories of challenges: instructional challenges, including low student motivation and difficulties in addressing mixed-ability classrooms; resource-related constraints, particularly limited access to curriculum-aligned teaching materials; assessment-related challenges stemming from uncertainty in designing appropriate learning modules and assessment practices; and institutional support issues, marked by insufficient guidance and systemic backing. In response to these challenges, teachers highlighted the need for sustained professional development, stronger collegial and leadership support, and improved digital infrastructure, including reliable internet access and technological tools. This study argues that the successful implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum depends not only on policy design but also on teachers’ professional readiness and institutional support systems. By foregrounding teachers’ perspectives, this research contributes to the growing literature on curriculum reform in EFL contexts and offers context-sensitive insights for strengthening curriculum implementation in Islamic secondary education.

Abstract

Salah satu kendala dalam pengembangan profesinalisme guru saat ini adalah terkait dengan penulisan dan pelaksanaan penelitian tindakan kelas (PTK). Penelitian PTK ini dapat dilaksanakan dengan terlebih dahulu merancang proposal yang berisi semua hal yang perlu dilakukan untuk melakukan penelitian tersebut. Agar guru dapat menulis proposal PTK, diperlukan suatu kegiatan sosialisasi membekali mereka dengan pengetahuan mengenai penulisan proposal PTK. Kegiatan pengabdian ini diharapkan mampu menjadi solusi untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan guru bahasa Inggris tentang cara menulis proposal PTK serta meningkatkan kesadaran guru akan pentingnya PTK dalam pengembangan karier sebagai guru.  Kegiatan pengabdian ini diikuti oleh 31 orang guru Bahasa Inggris di Tingkat SMP dan SMA di Kota Lahat Sumatera Selatan. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode pelatihan yang dilakukan melalui tahapan 1) persiapan peserta dan perlengkapan kegiatan pengabdian, 2) pemaparan materi dan diskusi grup melalui Zoom Cloud Meeting, 3) Diskusi lanjutan melalui Grup WhatApps, dan 4) evaluasi kegiatan melalui pre-test dan post-test. Hasil pelatihan menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan guru tentang PTK mengalami peningkatan dari nilai rata-rata 8,322 pada pre-test menjadi 12,032 pada post-test. Selain itu guru-guru juga telah mampu merancang kerangka proposal PTK dan diharapkan kegiatan ini dilanjutkan dengan kegiatan seperti pembimbingan penulisan proposal dan pelaksanaan penelitian berdasarkan proposal yang dirancang.

Abstract

This research compares the coverage of language skills, types of learning tasks, and curriculum conformity between two English textbooks (Oxford International Primary English, an international textbook, and My Next Words, a nationally developed textbook for third-grade students in Indonesian classrooms). Using a qualitative content analysis methodology, the investigation examines how each textbook systematically construes language skills, task design, and curricular coherence. The results show that the content in the national textbook has focused heavily on basic literacy skills, repetition, and the incorporation of local cultural themes. However, it offers few opportunities for communicative language use, problem-solving, and higher cognitive functions. Meanwhile, the international textbook reflects a more balanced integration of the four language skills, inquiry types, project-based learning tasks, and global issues to enhance learners’ understanding. The findings of the study indicate that a national English language teaching material can be improved by adding local content, authentic texts, an intercultural perspective, and communicative project work. The research also highlights significant implications for curriculum designers, textbook writers, and teacher education institutions that aim to enhance the overall quality of English language teaching in the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Writing assessment is essential for improving student' writing skill, but thorough studies of how it is implemented in widely used national textbooks are limited. This study aims to identify the types of writing assessment tasks presented in the English for Nusantara Grade 7 textbook and to examine how these tasks align with established writing assessment frameworks. Utilizing qualitative content analysis, all writing activities throughout five chapters were assessed and classified according to Brown's (2004) taxonomy of imitative, intensive, responsive, and extensive, as well as performance-based assessment standards. The findings show a planned evolution of writing assessments. The first chapters are primarily made up of imitative and demanding exercises (for example, matching, filling tables, and listing terminology). These serve as a scaffold for responsive writing tasks (such as concise description or organizational paragraphs) that demand connected discourse. Extensive writing tasks (whole, cohesive paragraphs) are less common, but they do occur in the following sections and enrichment activities.  Pre-writing exercises provide valuable support but do not directly test writing abilities. Overall, the textbook aligns moderately with known paradigms, while possibilities for comprehensive writing are inadequate. These results provide insights for enhancing writing assignments in EFL textbooks and point to the need for more study comparing writing assessments throughout materials and investigating the experiences of learners using each assessment type.

Abstract

Formative assessment has been recognised as a crucial strategy in enhancing teaching and learning in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. Few studies have specifically investigated teachers' perceptions of different types of formative assessment techniques in an EFL setting in secondary schools in Bengkulu, Indonesia. This study was designed to explore teachers' perceptions of formative assessment practices.This study used descriptive quantitative survey design with 34 active English teachers as samples selected using purposive sampling technique. The researcher used a 40 item questionnaire to gather data, adapted from the research conducted by Kausar (2023) on eleven formative assessment techniques. The data were also analyzed using descriptive statistics such as means, standard deviations, and percentages, to find the level of teachers' perception.The findings showed that teachers' attitudes towards formative assessment practices were mostly positive. Techniques such as questioning, classroom discussion, feedback, encouraging positive behaviour, personal experience activities, portfolios, one-minute papers, and appraising good values were perceived as effective in promoting student engagement and learning. However, several techniques, including multiple-choice questions, think-pair-share activities, and storytelling, received moderate responses due to challenges related to student pressure, memorization, participation, and attention management during classroom implementation.This study provides contextual information on formative assessment in EFL classrooms in Indonesia, specifically in Bengkulu province, where there are few empirical studies. The results indicate the necessity of designing and implementing targeted professional development strategies to enhance teachers' ability and capacity for the effective and sustained implementation of formative assessment techniques to aid student learning and academic performance.

Abstract

Current studies have emphasised the benefits of using literary texts in teaching English in the ESL/EFL context across all educational levels. However, little research has examined teachers’ perspectives on the implementation of literary works in their English classrooms. Therefore, this study seeks to investigate English teachers’ perspectives on the implementation of literary works in English teaching at a favourite school in Bengkulu City, Indonesia. This study adopted a descriptive qualitative method that involved three English teachers from a favourite school in Bengkulu City, Indonesia. The data were obtained by conducting semi-structured interviews. Their responses to the interviews were analysed qualitatively using an interactive model proposed by Miles and Huberman. The analysis processes included data reduction, data display, and conclusion-drawing. The results show that teachers’ perspectives on incorporating literary texts in English language teaching were positive. The literary texts could enhance students' linguistic (e.g., reading skills, vocabulary mastery, grammar accuracy) and non-linguistic competences (e.g., cultural awareness and critical thinking). However, obstacles such as students' poor language skills, time constraints, and difficulty in choosing suitable literature were also noted. Despite these obstacles, the teachers used a variety of techniques to maximise the effectiveness of literature-based instruction, such as text simplification, vocabulary pre-teaching, and interactive exercises. To conclude, when combined with suitable teaching techniques and contextual modification, literary texts have significant pedagogical potential in EFL environments.
