Abstract

Digital literacy is the ability to obtain, understand and use information that comes from various sources in digital form (Gilster, 1997). Along with the rapid development of information and communication technology, as well as the demands of the Indonesian Republic law number 14 of 2005, professional teachers are required to not only be able to utilize digital technology but also assess the validity of information obtained from digital sources. Gilster states that there are 4 aspects of competence so that someone is said to be digitally literate, the four aspects are aspects of internet searches, aspects of hypertext direction, aspects of evaluating information content, and aspects of knowledge preparation. This paper aims to analyze the level of digital literacy ability of professional teachers. The study used a quantitative method through Likert- scale questionnaires. The population in this study were all English professional teachers who graduated from a private university. The study found that research participants showed high levels of digital literacy and preparedness to use digital technology. Thus, by integrating digital technology, those professional teachers might meet the digital literacy standards of professional English instructors while also improving the quality of English teaching and learning output.

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of using English songs to teach writing skills to tenth-grade students at a Jakarta high school. The study involved 68 students over two classes. One class was given the song-based instruction as the experimental group, while the other class functioned as the control group. Both classes had pre-tests and post-tests to evaluate the impact of the treatment. Using IBM SPSS Statistics, the experimental class improved their average scores by 7.56 points compared to 4.59 points in the control group. The data revealed that the 2-tailed significance is p (0.039), while the alpha significance (α) is 0.05. Thus, since 0.039 is less than 0.05, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted, and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. These findings indicate that the use of song into writing class could be a useful method for improving student performance.

The research has limitation because it focused only on the English instruction. but did not address assessment using artwork. Therefore, further investigation is recommended to provide an understanding the implication of students’ artwork as learning media.
