This study is a research and development typed research by implementing design-based research (DBR) to develop a digital learning module based on e-portfolio principles. Three things were accomplished as a result of this research's implementation. First, the results of the needs analysis of students who are still getting English lectures at this moment (current learners), followed by the findings of observer observations in the classroom learning implementation. Second, the outcomes of designing and creating e- portfolio-based instructional materials in the form of a digital module that is connected to various digital platforms with the aid of QR codes. The analysis findings about the efficiency of using produced electronic modules come in third. The result of the current learners’ perception showed that the implementation of the e-portfolio learning model was able to improve student's learning achievements, however, the urgency in developing a digital module integrated with a multi-learning media platform was necessarily taken into account. Moreover, a digital module was designed based on the students’ needs and digitalization era 4.0. Consequently, the outcome of the digital module's development had a favorable impact on students' engagement to learn in a blended learning environment.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the multifaceted benefits of reading during free time, focusing on its impact on knowledge acquisition, emotional well-being, and social development. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining surveys and focus groups across diverse age groups including adolescents and young adults. Data analysis revealed that leisure reading enhances vocabulary, literacy skills, and critical thinking while also providing relaxation, stress relief, and emotional support. Additionally, reading for pleasure fosters empathy, cultural competence, and ethical reflection, particularly among medical students and youth. The findings highlight the role of accessible resources such as public libraries in promoting leisure reading and suggest that early exposure to books encourages lifelong reading habits. The study concludes that leisure reading is a vital activity for intellectual growth and psychological health, recommending further longitudinal research to deepen understanding of its long-term effects.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how reading English novels enhances students’ motivation to learn the English language. A qualitative and quantitative mixed-method approach was employed, involving senior students from English departments who engaged in extensive novel reading programs. Data were collected through pre- and post-assessments, questionnaires, and observational notes to analyse changes in motivation, vocabulary acquisition, and language skills development. Statistical analysis revealed significant improvements in students’ motivation, vocabulary size, and overall language proficiency after engaging with novels. The findings suggest that novels serve as flexible, engaging learning tools that cater to diverse learning styles while fostering creativity, cultural understanding, and communication skills. Incorporating novels into English curricula is recommended to boost student motivation and enhance language learning outcomes effectively.
