The population of this research is English as a Foreign Language students in Kumon Sweta which consist of 29 students, and all of them were taken as samples.

Abstract

This study examines the pre-service teachers' agentive projections toward innovation in online English Language Teaching (ELT) classes. Employing teacher agency theory, this instrumental case study views projections as agentive when they are informed by the students' ecological aspects (past and present), oriented to solve potential learning problems and improve learning outcomes. The study involved 84 pre-service teachers who were voluntarily asked to fill in a questionnaire, submit a lesson plan, and be interviewed. nVivo Pro was used to organize themes. The study indicates that the pre-service teachers, M=3.81, SD=.590, perceive that innovation in online ELT classes is closely related to the integration of information and technology. As a result, the students' agentive projections were also oriented to solve technology and internet-based obstacles, added with innovative learning methods. The research findings may become important insights for the development of English teaching and learning in order to provide more capital for pre-service teachers creating ELT innovation in the future.

Abstract

This article is aimed at determining the accuracy of post-editing translations on GNMT by English Department students. The objects of this study were students of the English Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, University of Mataram, who were admitted to the "Translation and Interpreting" course in the fourth semester of the 2021-2022 academic year. Data obtained through observation and documentation was used in two literary texts. The results of this study indicate that almost all students have poor accuracy in their post-editing results. Most of the post-editing accuracy levels of the two texts produced by students were not acceptable, with the criteria of “highly accurate” at 1%, followed by 14% for "accurate," 35% for “less accurate,” and “inaccurate” at 51%. Based on these percentages, it can be concluded that the level of accuracy of the translation in post-editing from GNMT shows inaccurate results. Therefore, it still needs to be improved to meet the target audience by paying attention to the naturalness of the target language in terms of sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation in order to produce a better translation.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus kualitatif untuk mengeksplorasi faktor-faktor psikologis dan strategi komunikasi yang memengaruhi kinerja berbicara bahasa Inggris di antara siswa kelas sebelas Jurusan Tata Boga di SMKN 4 Mataram selama interaksi kelas terbatas pada tahun akademik 2024/2025. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi kelas, kuesioner, dan dokumentasi, dan dianalisis menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan, didukung oleh triangulasi untuk memastikan validitas. Temuan tersebut mengungkapkan bahwa kecemasan adalah faktor psikologis yang paling dominan, ditunjukkan melalui kegelisahan siswa, jeda yang lama, dan berbicara dengan suara yang sangat rendah. Kepercayaan diri yang rendah juga membatasi kemauan mereka untuk berpartisipasi, sementara motivasi, meskipun umumnya tinggi karena aspirasi karier, tidak selalu menghasilkan kinerja berbicara aktif. Untuk mengatasi faktor-faktor ini, siswa menggunakan beberapa strategi komunikasi, di antaranya strategi sosial seperti meminta bantuan teman sebaya adalah yang paling sering dan efektif digunakan. Strategi kompensasi dan strategi penghindaran juga digunakan tetapi kurang efektif. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa guru bahasa Inggris di sekolah kejuruan harus merancang lebih banyak kegiatan berbicara yang kolaboratif dan suportif untuk menurunkan kecemasan siswa, membangun kepercayaan diri, dan memperkuat keterampilan komunikasi dalam konteks Bahasa Inggris untuk Tujuan Tertentu (ESP).
