Abstract

Student participation in English as Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms remains a significant challenge in rural Indonesian schools, where barriers such as low motivation, limited vocabulary, and lack of confidence hinder active engagement. This study investigates teaching strategies employed by two English teachers, TG and YF, at Junior High School 1 Gangga to address these issues. The objectives of the research are to identify the strategies used by the teachers, explore the challenges they face in activating student participation, and examine their perceptions of classroom engagement. A qualitative case study design was utilized, employing semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis as data collection methods. Thematic analysis was applied to identify patterns and themes within the data. The findings reveal that both teachers employed differentiated learning, group discussions, reading aloud, and English games as key strategies to enhance student participation. However, challenges such as resource limitations, varying student proficiency levels, and low confidence levels were consistently reported. To address these, the teachers adapted their strategies by leveraging available resources, conducting personalized assessments, and fostering a supportive learning environment. The study underscores the importance of teacher flexibility and creativity in overcoming barriers to student participation. Its implications suggest the need for professional development programs to equip teachers with innovative strategies and improved resource allocation to support effective teaching in similar EFL contexts. These findings contribute to the broader discourse on enhancing EFL learning outcomes in under-resourced settings.

Abstract

The increasing significance of English as a global lingua franca underscores the need for effective early language education strategies. This study examines English teachers' strategies in implementing the Montessori method at Bale Anak Lombok Montessori School to enhance pre-schoolers' vocabulary acquisition and address pedagogical challenges. Employing a qualitative descriptive case study design, data were collected through non-participatory classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with two teachers, and document analysis. Findings reveal that the Three-Period Lesson—a core Montessori strategy—was pivotal in introducing vocabulary through structured progression, using tangible materials and interactive activities to foster engagement and retention. Supplementary strategies included storytelling, songs with movements, and gamified activities, which addressed young learners' developmental needs and short attention spans. Articulation challenges were mitigated through repetition and individualized observation, while parent involvement reinforced learning consistency at home. The study highlights the Montessori method's alignment with constructivist principles, emphasizing hands-on, child-centered learning that supports holistic development. These findings suggest that integrating interactive, multisensory approaches can significantly enhance early language education. Implications include the need for professional training to adapt Montessori principles effectively and for future research to explore their application in diverse educational and cultural contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation process, focusing on teaching methods, challenges encountered, and outcomes achieved. Employing a qualitative research design, data were gathered through classroom observations, teacher interviews, and analysis of lesson plans and teaching materials. Findings reveal that while teachers employ innovative strategies to engage students, their efforts are constrained by insufficient training and limited institutional support. Student engagement and comprehension vary, influenced by both instructional methods and the learning environment. The findings suggest that enhancing teacher training programs, providing adequate resources, and fostering collaboration among educators and stakeholders can significantly improve the effectiveness of the local content curriculum. Policymakers must prioritize systemic support to address challenges and ensure English instruction contributes effectively to students' language development and academic success.

Abstract

In higher education, critical thinking plays a vital role in shaping students’ analytical and reflective abilities, particularly through academic writing which serves as both a learning tool and an assessment method. Recognizing its importance, this study investigated the critical thinking skills of English Department students at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, University of Mataram, as reflected in their academic writing. The study aimed to assess the level of students’ critical thinking skills, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and explore the factors that influence their critical thinking development. Employing a sequential explanatory mixed-method design, quantitative data were first collected through IELTS aligned academic writing tasks from 45 fourth semester students, followed by qualitative interviews to gain deeper insights into their reasoning processes and writing challenges. Quantitative findings indicated that students reached a general intermediate level of critical thinking, in which they exhibited relative strength in task response and coherence but consistent weakness in grammar and vocabulary use. Comparative outcomes indicated that Class G outperformed consistently Class H on key performance indicators. Qualitative findings also revealed that while students were able to use evidence and reason, they lacked analytical depth, integration of sources, and structural composition in argument construction. Lecturers' feedback, peer interaction, and self-regulation were identified as key factors supporting students' critical thinking development. The study concludes that academic writing can serve as an effective medium for developing students’ critical thinking skills when supported by explicit instruction, rubric-based feedback, and collaborative learning activities. It highlights the need for continuous pedagogical innovation to strengthen students’ ability to think critically and express their ideas effectively in academic contexts.
