Abstract

The rapid development of information technology has had a significant impact on various fields, including education. This study aims to design and develop a web-based school information system for SMK Negeri 1 Sorong to enhance efficiency in data management and the dissemination of academic and non-academic information. The methodology used follows the Waterfall system development model, which includes requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The research results indicate that the system, developed using PHP as the programming language and MySQL as the database, operates stably and provides users with flexible access. This system facilitates the integration of student data, teacher data, class schedules, and other related information. Testing confirmed that all system functions operate according to the designed specifications. With the implementation of this system, SMK Negeri 1 Sorong can improve the quality of educational services, simplify information access, and support digital transformation in the education sector. Furthermore, the results of this study have the potential to be applied and adapted in other educational contexts, particularly in the development of web-based school information systems that can be customized according to the needs of other educational institutions.

Abstract

This research aimed to study the teacher’s roles played by English language teachersat a senior high school. It analyzed the levels of students’ perception of which teacher’s role isthe preferred one and which one is mostly played by their teachers. This study was conducted on 55 language major students at a public senior high school. To gather the data, it used questionnaires about different teacher’s roles in the classroom. It was a descriptivequantitative research which utilized statistical analyses to analyze the data. Based on theexisting findings, there are a few conclusions drawn. First, students show good preference for all types of teachers’ roles (controller, director, manager, facilitator, and resource). However, they show a very good preference for one type of role, that is as a facilitator. In other words, the English teachers who play their roles as facilitators would be the most preferred by the students in English learning. Second, since the English teachers at the school proportionally play all types of roles in their teaching activities, this indicates that the English teachers fully realize the importance of playing all types of roles when teaching rather than emphasizing only one or two types of roles.

Abstract

In the Indonesian higher education context, non-English major students often encounter difficulties in mastering English tenses. This study aims to investigate students’ perceptions of the cognitive, affective, and behavioral challenges they experience when learning English tenses. A quantitative descriptive design was employed, and data were collected through a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire administered to 65 non-English major students at Universitas Klabat (UNKLAB), representing various faculties such as Computer Science, Business, and Nursing. The findings reveal a complex interaction between linguistic and psychological factors. From a cognitive perspective, 40% of the students identified the absence of a tense system in the Indonesian language as a major obstacle, indicating L1 interference. Affectively, 63% of the participants perceived English tenses as the most difficult aspect of learning English, while 49% reported reduced confidence in speaking due to fear of making grammatical errors. Behaviorally, 65% of the students demonstrated an avoidance strategy by frequently using the simple present tense to minimize mistakes. Despite these challenges, 77% of the students recognized the importance of mastering tenses for their future professional needs. These findings highlight the need for contextualized and communicative grammar instruction that addresses both linguistic difficulties and learners’ emotional barriers in non-English major EFL classrooms.

Abstract

This study investigates the speaking difficulties experienced by English major students, addressing the limited qualitative insights into how these learners perceive and manage such challenges in real communicative contexts. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected from four university students through semi-structured interviews, recorded as mobile voice notes and transcribed verbatim to ensure accuracy. The findings reveal that linguistic obstacles, particularly difficulties in vocabulary retrieval and grammatical construction, contribute to frequent use of fillers such as “ee” and “hmmm,” indicating processing challenges during speech production. In addition, psychological factors, especially anxiety and fear of negative evaluation, significantly hinder students’ speaking performance by increasing their affective filter. Environmental factors, including an overemphasis on theoretical instruction, further limit opportunities for meaningful speaking practice. Despite these challenges, students demonstrate strategic competence by employing paraphrasing, simple expressions, and non-verbal cues to maintain communication. These findings suggest that effective language instruction should balance linguistic development with psychological support and provide more opportunities for communicative practice in supportive learning environments.
