Abstract

This study aims to develop the Android-based application Talkbuddy as an inclusive communication medium for teaching English and Statistics to deaf students at Universitas Pamulang. The application is designed to address communication challenges in learning by incorporating features such as speech-to-text transcription, group discussion forums, access to learning modules, educational videos, the latest news in education, and a space for sharing experiences. This research adopts the Research and Development (R&D) method using the Luther-Sutopo model, which includes the stages of concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. The trial was conducted with two deaf students who participated in a series of application usage tests to evaluate the effectiveness and practicality of the developed features. Data collection techniques included interviews, observations, and questionnaires throughout the trial process. Data analysis was conducted through expert validation (content and media), alpha testing, and beta testing. The results indicate that the Talkbuddy application enhances communication accessibility and supports inclusive learning processes in English and Statistics courses, with average scores in alpha and beta testing exceeding 80, indicating a high level of feasibility. This application offers an innovative solution to the academic communication barriers faced by deaf students and is expected to contribute to the advancement of inclusive learning technology in higher education.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the application of English in mathematics teaching in Southeast Asia countries, focusing on trends across countries, methods, benefits, and challenges. This study employed a systematic literature review (SLR) method adapted from the PRISMA model, resulting in 17 relevant articles obtained from 141 articles in the Scopus and Web of Science databases.  The data analysis technique of this research applied thematic analysis to review, identify, and analyze the data.  The findings revealed that emerging research focused on learning policies and media, improving pedagogical practices, educational quality, and student learning outcomes. Malaysia is the country that has conducted the most research on this topic, with 11 articles, followed by the Philippines and Thailand, each with 2 articles. The majority of studies used qualitative methods and mixed methods. The benefits of using English in mathematics instruction included avoiding translation errors, supporting the implementation of global learning, enhancing soft skills and problem-solving abilities, supporting future career prospects, and improving the quality of learning with support from teachers and related parties. Some challenges faced include varying skills and readiness of teachers and students, the availability and utilization of resources, and the different impacts on students, especially those from diverse demographics. Additionally, cultural and linguistic gaps between English and students’ mother tongue, the rapid adoption of English policies in mathematics teaching, and necessary pedagogical adjustments also present challenges.
