Abstract   Concerning the sophisticated, contextual, and valid development of language learning assessment in EFL writing fields, it is highly recommended for EFL teachers to advance their learners’ writing skills progression under the supervision of self-assessment. It has been a widespread belief by previous researchers that the continual utilization of self-assessment in writing learning processes can potentially breed more proficient and independent writers. Coupled with this premise, this present small-scale qualitative study was conducted to profoundly investigate Indonesian university EFL learners’ specific perceptions toward self-assessment in writing learning dynamics with the help of qualitative content analysis. 10 online Likert-scale questionnaire items along with 5 open-ended written narrative inquiry questions were distributed to 15 English Education Master Students, at Sanata Dharma University. The obtained research results unfolded that the ineluctability of self-assessment activities is pivotal in breeding more professional EFL writers capable of creating more qualified writing products. For the further advancement of this current investigation, future studies are strongly prompted to thoroughly involve ample research participants accompanied by more comprehensive research instruments.   Keywords: self-assessment, EFL writing processes, qualitative content analysis

This currently-initiated qualitative study was in support of an annotated bibliography approach to ascertain the credibility, relevancy, and applicability of the particularly-attained research results. To that end, the researcher utilized a document analysis and an open-coding approach to thematically categorize each identical research result generated by 10 already-published collaborative writing strategy journal articles conducted worldwide. The thematically-analyzed research results highly advised globalized second language writing instructors to incorporate a collaborative writing strategy at the inception of regular writing learning dynamics as it functioned as one of the propelling forces for EFL learners to gradually transform into more skilled, enthusiastic, confident, optimistic, and proactive target language writers.

Abstract

Studies on effective speaking teaching strategies have caught mushrooming attention in these last two decades. This is not happening by incidental matters as globalized educationalists are still having arduous moments in devising more suitable, enjoyable, and relatable speaking learning strategies that can maximize EFL learners’ self-confidence. According to previous researchers, self-confidence is one of the propelling factors enabling EFL learners to gain more advanced communication proficiency levels since they possess a higher level of preparedness in confronting a wide variety of challenging speaking learning enterprises. This small-scale library study employed a thematic analysis approach while analyzing a certain number of identical research results produced by prior 25 speaking investigations published worldwide. By utilizing this research method, the researcher can potentially yield more relevant, contextual, and comprehensible research outcomes due to an iterative data analysis conducted before initiating more specific research theme groupings. Based on the thematically categorized research results, second language educators can progressively inculcate robust speaking self-confidence among EFL learners upon the activation of more authentic and enjoyable speaking learning activities. More comprehensive delineations regarding these two speaking learning methodologies can be discerned in the ensuing parts of this research paper
