Abstract

Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) in elementary schools, particularly in resource-limited settings, presents significant challenges. In Yogyakarta, Indonesia, these challenges are intensified in a public school, where limited resources, such as teaching materials, technology, and professional development opportunities, hinder the ability of teachers to deliver effective language instruction. Despite these constraints, English remains a crucial part of the education system in Indonesia, with increasing recognition of its importance for academic, professional, and social advancement. This study aims to explore the specific challenges faced by teachers in a public elementary school in Yogyakarta, and the strategies they employ to overcome these challenges in teaching English to young learners. A qualitative research design was employed, with data collected through interviews with three experienced teachers from the early stages in the school. The study identifies key challenges, including students’ difficulties with pronunciation, short attention spans, bilingualism, and the quick forgetting of lessons. It also highlights strategies that teachers use to address these issues, such as incorporating fun songs and videos, using games, and employing interactive methods to engage students. The findings underscore the importance of creative, low-cost strategies in overcoming resource limitations and fostering an engaging and effective learning environment. This research contributes valuable insights into TEFL practices in resource-constrained contexts and offers recommendations for improving English language teaching in similar settings worldwide.

Abstract

This inquiry explores English foreign language (EFL) teacher beliefs in teach-abroad (TA) contexts under the umbrella of Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory (SCT) of mind. The previously available literature on teacher beliefs has relied mostly on quantitative survey research concerning belief as an inert variable; an internal representation of experience is resilient to evolve. Due to the prevalence of the theory of mind or cognitive orientation under the sociocultural theory, this case study aims to examine two TA EFL teachers’ belief changes in the new TA context and conceptualize the teachers’ beliefs from a sociocultural perspective. The participants involved EFL teachers (both pseudonyms): Ivan (male, aged 26) and Melanie (female, aged 24) attending different types of TA were recruited for this research. We collected the data through pre-and post-TA interviews and teaching journals with other triangulated methods like teaching autobiographies and recall experiences. The findings advocated that EFL teachers’ teaching beliefs continuously evolve according to their TA goals and experiences, and their belief changes involve a remediation process that leads to different teaching actions. Their internalized EFL teaching beliefs within meaningful environments influence the success of their TA teaching. HIGHLIGHTS: EFL teachers’ teaching beliefs continuously evolve according to their TA goals and experiences EFL teacher’s belief changes involve a remediation process that leads to different teaching actions Socio-cultural context of teaching and learning practice facilitates the perception of teachers’ teaching beliefs.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a surge in the popularity of online learning, offering students greater flexibility and accessibility. However, students with hearing impairments encounter significant challenges in accessing learning materials and communicating with teachers and peers. This study aims to investigate the experiences of students with hearing impairments using a Learning Management System (LMS) for online learning focusing on their challenges they face and the strategies they employ in their learning. The research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative design at private universities in Yogyakarta. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather the data involving three students with hearing impairments who have used LMS in online learning as the participants. The findings revealed the challenges that included the use of multiple applications, lack of understanding on the LMS, lack of LMS notifications, material mismatch, unstable internet connection, tool constraints, lack of inadequate facilities, and there is no training on the use of the LMS. Additionally, the strategies used by the students included self-study, assignment submission via email, asking others for help, using additional apps, using a typist facility, and joining WhatsApp group discussions.
