Abstract

In second language learning, assessment plays a vital role in evaluating and measuring students’ proficiency levels based on the material taught. Therefore, this research aims to examine the strategies, practices, and challenges faced by an English MGMP teacher in West Lombok face during the development of a valid teacher-made test for Senior High School students. This study employs a qualitative design, and the data were collected through triangulation techniques such as teacher interviews and document analysis of the test item from two schools in West Lombok, six teachers from SMAN 1 Narmada, and four teachers from SMAN 1 Gerung. The findings indicate that the majority of teachers maintain the content validity by utilizing the curriculum, module, and test blueprint as their core references before and during the test development process. However, several test items were found to be misaligned with the curriculum and the materials taught. Furthermore, none of the respondents considered the alignment between the test with the specific language skills that being assessed. In addition, the majority of the problem that teacher usually face is the wide variation in students’ proficiency levels, which makes it difficult to design a fair test for all students. The study concludes that, although the most of English teachers had ensured the content validity of their test items by referring to official documents such as the curriculum, teaching modules, and test blueprints during the test development process, there are several items which still deviated from the material taught, and none of teachers addressed whether the test formats appropriately matched the language skills being assessed such as speaking, writing, listening and reading. Their strategies mainly involved adjusting items to students’ proficiency levels, collaborating with colleagues, and managing test banks through digital platforms such as WhatsApp and the PIJAR application. However, none reported using analytical measures like item discrimination index to examine test quality. The primary obstacle they faced was the broad variation in students’ abilities, alongside many learners performing below the expected standard. This challenge was intensified by the absence of recent professional development initiatives or coordination from the English MGMP in West Lombok over the last one to two years.

Abstract

The rapid emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT, provides new opportunities for innovation in English Language Teaching (ELT). However, many teachers in rural Indonesia, especially in North Lombok Regency, still struggle to integrate AI tools due to limited digital literacy, minimal training, and inadequate infrastructure. This community service program aimed to enhance teachers’ ability to design differentiated learning assessments using ChatGPT. The program implemented an AI-based digital literacy workshop that combined theoretical and hands-on practice, followed by mentoring and evaluation. Twenty English teachers from the Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP) participated in training sessions designed to improve confidence and practical competence in AI-assisted lesson planning and assessment creation. Data were collected through pre–post tests, observation, and reflection reports. Findings reveal significant improvement in teachers’ digital literacy, creativity in assessment design, and collaboration through digital networks. Despite challenges such as unstable internet access and limited facilities, the participants successfully produced AI-based assessment prototypes adapted to their students’ needs. The program demonstrates that AI-integrated teacher training can bridge the gap between pedagogical innovation and classroom practice, empowering teachers to create inclusive and differentiated learning environments.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: Many Master’s students in English Language Education struggle to achieve the minimum TOEFL score. However, limited research has explored how gender influences their understanding of idioms. This study examined: (1) students’ idiomatic understanding by gender; (2) gender effects on idiom comprehension; (3) causes of difficulty; and (4) learning strategies used. Methodology: A mixed-methods design involving 212 English Master’s students. Data were collected with tests, questionnaires, and interviews. Descriptive statistics were used to assess students’ idiom comprehension levels, and the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation was used to assess the relationship between idiom comprehension and other variables. For stages of qualitative analysis - data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing – were applied. Main Findings: The study reveals a medium level of idiomatic competence and no significant gender effect—challenging prevailing assumptions of gendered pragmatic advantages. Key difficulties include limited exposure to authentic input, unfamiliarity with figurative meaning, infrequent reading, and forgetfulness. Students rely on strategies such as reading idiom materials, using dictionaries, making contextual inferences, and using multimedia. Novelty/Originality of this study: The main challenges stem from limited exposure, literal interpretation, and insufficient cultural and contextual knowledge. Nevertheless, students demonstrated learner autonomy by employing diverse strategies such as using idiom dictionaries, engaging with authentic media, and contextual guessing. The study offers ‘novel’ insights for integrating idiomatic instruction to enhance postgraduate pragmatic competence and TOEFL outcomes.

Abstract

English vocabulary mastery has undergone significant changes with the emergence of digital technology. This study aims to examine the use of digital tools in English vocabulary learning by students in the English Language Education Study Program at the University of Mataram, focusing on the utilization of various digital tools. This study used a descriptive qualitative design. Data were collected through online questionnaires completed by 52 participants and in-depth interviews with 10 purposively selected participants. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis based on the Braun and Clarke (2006) model. The results show that students use various digital tools in an integrated manner, combining social media, learning applications, digital dictionaries, and artificial intelligence (AI) in the vocabulary learning process. This process occurs continuously through the stages of discovering new words, understanding their meanings, and using them in sentences or conversations. Furthermore, the effectiveness of digital materials is evident in the multimodal support provided, such as visual and auditory aids to support understanding of meaning and pronunciation. The study also identified barriers to the use of digital tools, including distractions from non-educational content and technical issues related to internet connection. These findings indicate that the functional effectiveness of digital learning tools is directly related to students' strategies and their independent learning abilities. Theoretical and practical implications for the development of technology-based vocabulary learning are also discussed.
