Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of a Case-Based Collaborative Learning (CBCL) listening e-module in enhancing the 21st-century skills of English Language Teaching (ELT) students, specifically focusing on critical and creative thinking skills. Utilizing an experimental design, 38 students participated, with an experimental group using the e-module and a control group following traditional instruction. Results from pre- and post-tests demonstrated significant improvements in the experimental group. Additionally, students’ feedback revealed high satisfaction with the module’s content relevance, multimedia integration, and scaffolded activities. These findings suggest that CBCL-based e-module is an effective tool for fostering students’ creative and critical thinking, contributing to innovative teaching practices in ELT.

Abstract

This study explored the use of politeness strategies in gender interaction between Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan in The Great Gatsby. It examined the types of politeness strategies employed by both characters, investigated the social factors that influenced their linguistic choices, and interpreted how those choices represented gendered interaction within the novel. A qualitative descriptive approach was adopted, with 73 utterances drawn from the characters' spoken dialogues serving as the research data. The data were collected through document analysis and examined using an interactive process of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The credibility of the findings was strengthened through theoretical triangulation. The sociolinguistic analysis revealed the presence of four politeness strategies in the interactions. Positive politeness appeared most frequently, accounting for 34.25% of the data, followed by negative politeness (28.77%), bald-on-record (20.55%), and off-record strategies (16.44%). Their use was influenced by relative power, social distance, and the rank of imposition in each conversational context. Gatsby tended to express solidarity and emotional closeness through positive politeness, while Daisy more often relied on indirect forms of communication that reflected caution and interpersonal distance. These findings indicated that politeness strategies functioned as meaningful linguistic resources for expressing social relationships and negotiating gender interaction, which reflected the social values portrayed in the novel.

Abstract

Background: Local wisdom-based culinary tourism requires local youth to have practical English competence to support tourism services and promote cultural identity. In Kampung Wisata Kuliner Makladuta, limited English proficiency reduced youths' ability to welcome visitors, describe local dishes, handle service interactions, and explain the cultural values of culinary products. Pre-training assessment showed an overall mean score of 2.46 (low category) across four practical English indicators. Purpose of the Study: This community service program aimed to improve the practical English competence and speaking confidence of local youth involved in culinary tourism services, and to strengthen their ability to communicate local culinary identity to domestic and international visitors. Methods: The program applied a contextual training approach based on Communicative Language Teaching and English for Specific Purposes. Materials focused on greetings, dish descriptions, order-taking, tourist questions, culinary storytelling, and digital promotion. Activities included role-play, guided speaking practice, restaurant simulations, storytelling workshops, and direct facilitator feedback. Twelve youth participants attended the core training. Results: The program improved participants' ability to greet tourists, describe menus, take orders, and respond to visitor requests. Post-training assessment showed an overall mean score increase from 2.46 to 4.04 (good category), with an improvement of 1.58 points. Participants also showed increased speaking confidence. Feedback results were positive, with mean scores ranging from 4.42 to 4.75 (very good category). A practical training module (English for Culinary Tourism), a glossary, and an English-based promotional video were also produced to support sustainability.
