Abstract

The intention of this study is to determine how students experience about using QuillBot as a tool to minimise plagiarism in their thesis proposals. To accomplish the objectives of the study, a quantitative research approach was used. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to seventh-semester undergraduate students majoring in English Education at STKIP YPUP Makassar during the 2023/2024 academic year. According to the results, 60% of students think QuillBot is helpful for paraphrasing, and 40% concur that it is user-friendly and beneficial. Additionally, all participants (100%) agreed that QuillBot is a useful tool for paraphrasing. After using QuillBot, most students reported improvements in their writing clarity (60%) as well as in their grammar and sentence structure. Furthermore, 40% of students strongly suggested QuillBot to others, and 60% of students said they would be willing to keep using it. These findings imply that QuillBot is an effective supporting tool for encouraging academic integrity and helping students develop their academic writing, even though some students still need more direction to make the most of it.

Abstract

This study examines the process of implementing the audio-lingual method to improve students’ listening skills at SMA Negeri 3 Tana Toraja. tarting from initial observations regarding students' challenges in understanding oral information, especially in a foreign language, this study aims to describe in depth how the audio-lingual method is implemented in the classroom and how its implementation affects students' listening skills. Using a qualitative approach with a case study, this study involved several students and English teachers at SMA Negeri 3 Tana Toraja as participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observations in the classroom, and document analysis, including lesson plans and audio recordings of learning. The case study approach allows for contextual and in-depth exploration of phenomena, providing a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of teacher-student interactions and students' responses to the methods applied. The results showed that the implementation of the audio-lingual method at SMA Negeri 3 Tana Toraja involved a series of structured activities such as repetition of sentence patterns, dialogues, and Drill exercises. Teachers consistently used audio recordings and emphasized correct pronunciation. However, challenges such as time constraints, large class sizes, and lack of variety of audio materials were also identified. These findings indicate that the audio-lingual method has great potential in improving students' listening skills through intensive and repeated exposure, but its effectiveness is highly dependent on contextual adaptation and teacher creativity in managing learning. This study is expected to provide valuable input for education practitioners in designing more effective language learning strategies, especially in developing students' listening skills.

Abstract

This study explores students’ perceptions of Kahoot! in an English phrase memorization program and identifies the challenges and opportunities they experienced during its implementation. Conducted at Al Mubarak Cendekia Islamic School in Makassar, Indonesia, the research employed an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design. Quantitative data were collected from 21 junior high school students through Likert-scale questionnaires, followed by qualitative interviews with selected students. Findings revealed that students’ perceptions of Kahoot! were overwhelmingly positive, with strong recognition of its role in making memorization enjoyable, interactive, and engaging. Statistical analysis demonstrated significant correlations between positive perceptions and students’ recognition of learning opportunities, while perceptions were not significantly related to reported challenges. Qualitative insights indicated that Kahoot! encouraged collaboration, motivation, and persistence but also presented difficulties, including technical issues, time constraints, and distractions. The study concludes that Kahoot! offers valuable opportunities to enhance phrase memorization in Islamic school contexts, though infrastructural and design-related challenges require careful attention. Implications are offered for teachers, schools, and policymakers in integrating gamified learning technologies.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the difficulties of Business English Communication students in memorizing English vocabulary and explore the strategies used to overcome these difficulties. Vocabulary mastery is essential for language proficiency, yet students often struggle due to several factors. The research objectives include identifying key challenges and exploring effective strategies students use to overcome them. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with interview and observation data collection techniques, collecting data focused on the meaning and subjective experiences of 4th-semester Business English students in the process of memorizing English vocabulary by involving 6 students. The results show that students have difficulty in memorizing vocabulary in 8 factors: Mispronunciation, Misspelling, The Length of Vocabulary, Multiple Meanings Cause Confusion, Difficult Recognition in Similar Words, Lack of Identifying While Listening, Unfamiliar Words, and Misunderstanding in Catching Non-verbal Cues While Speaking. Despite these obstacles, students utilize strategies such as repetitive practice, contextual learning, and digital tools to enhance vocabulary retention. Conclusions indicate that while students employ effective strategies, long-term retention remains a challenge without consistent practice. Recommendations include providing more practice opportunities, emphasizing phonetics in learning, integrating vocabulary into real-life contexts, and encouraging the use of technology for self-directed learning. These approaches can significantly improve students' vocabulary acquisition and overall language proficiency.

Abstract

This study investigated the emotional responses of EFL learners from different generational cohorts- Generation Z, Millenial, and Generation X- toward oral corrective feedback (OFC) provided by a Millennial lecturer in an online classroom.  Rooted in speech act theory, particularly the concept of perlocutionary acts, the research explores how teachers’ feedback is emotionally received, interpreted, and responded to by learners of varying age groups. A qualitative approach was employed, involving observation of a Zoom-based English class and in-depth semi-structured interviews with nine selected students representing the three generations. Data were analyzed thematically using Miles and Huberman’s framework. The findings reveal five primary emotional responses to OFC: anxiety, embarrassment,  motivation, appreciation, and discomfort. While Generation Z expressed higher sensitivity and nervousness, especially in response to public or explicit correction, millennials generally viewed direct feedback as constructive. Generation X preferred reflective feedback forms such as elicitation. These varied emotional reactions demonstrate that the perlocutionary effects of OFC differ based on generational identity, learner preferences, and the classroom setting. This study highlights the importance of generation-aware and emotionally responsive feedback practices in EFL instruction, particularly in online learning environments with limited non-verbal communication. It contributes to the affective dimension of corrective feedback research by emphasizing how feedback not only corrects linguistic errors but also impacts learner emotion, engagement, and motivation.

Abstract

This study analyzes language and power relations in celebrity endorsement through the lens of SEVENTEEN’s advertisement for Indomilk. Although celebrity endorsements are known to influence purchasing decisions, there is scant focus on the discourse celebrities strategically employ, especially in the context of K-pop. Fairclough’s three-dimensional Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) was used in this research to capture how SEVENTEEN’s language choices in their endorsement critically constrain or reproduce the power dynamics relations of the brand, the celebrities, and the consumers. Headed from June 2024 to March 2025, the study collected television and social media ads targeting specific audiences, alongside numerous other pieces of marketed dialogue and visuals. The data were examined at multi-levels: textual, discursive, and social practice. The results indicate that the primary narrative of the ads was to promote Indomilk not simply as a drink but as a vessel of joy, vigor, and global citizenship visually and textually via relatable marketing image and emotionally resonant vernacular. Culturally, the endorsement is framed in Korean with outlandish and groundless suggestions to defy any local inklings of identity which simultaneously aids the brand’s appeal among young local audiences amplifying brand loyalty. The research also notes the portrayals change when it comes to male idols as they perform emotive expressiveness and soft masculinity, which contributes to changing cultural traditions. The results of this study highlight how celebrity discourse operates as a site of socio-cultural and business appropriation, affixing brand power and molding identity of clientele.
