Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming education massively. As AI increasingly integrates into a learning environment, understanding students' opinions is crucial for optimizing its usage in higher education contexts. This study explores the perceptions and experiences of first-semester university students in Indonesia regarding artificial intelligence within the context of higher education. This research investigates students' views on their motivation to use AI and its perceived advantages and disadvantages. Through a case study approach, this study used semi-structured interviews with 50 first-semester students at a private university In Indonesia. The study reveals a complex insight. This study uncovers students' experience trying AI for their learning and their enthusiasm for re-using it. This study also uncovers students' motivation to use AI. Students recognize AI's potential to enhance learning, simplify academic tasks, and foster lifelong learning. However, they also express concerns about AI's accuracy, the potential for diminished critical thinking skills, ethical implications, and accessibility issues. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive AI literacy education in Indonesian universities, emphasizing technical skills, ethical considerations, critical thinking, and responsible AI usage. Moreover, this contributes to the growing body of knowledge on AI in education and provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to integrate AI into higher education in Indonesia effectively.

Abstract

Improving the quality of English learning in high schools is an ongoing priority to produce graduates with strong moral character and linguistic competence. This study aimed to develop English teaching materials based on advice poetry and evaluate their effectiveness in enhancing students’ moral character and English language skills. The research employed the Research and Development (R&D) model proposed by Borg & Gall, encompassing preliminary studies, material design, and evaluation phases. The sample consisted of 120 high school students, selected through purposive sampling, who participated in the intervention. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test to measure the statistical significance of learning outcomes before and after the implementation of the developed materials. The findings indicate that the developed teaching materials align with students’ needs, adhere to curriculum standards, and meet criteria for readability, clarity, and graphical presentation. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant improvement in students' learning outcomes, with average scores increasing from 65.4 (pre-test) to 82.7 (post-test) (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 1.2), indicating a large effect size. Additionally, qualitative feedback showed that students were highly enthusiastic about the learning process, citing increased engagement and understanding of moral values embedded in the advice poetry. This study concludes that (1) the developed teaching materials are effective in improving both moral character and English language competence, and (2) students show positive attitudes toward poetry-based learning. The study recommends that educators incorporate advice poetry into English teaching materials to foster holistic student development. Future research could explore other literary genres or expand the sample size to generalize findings across diverse educational contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to identify vocabulary learning strategy used, analysis repetition strategy implementation, examine effectiveness on vocabulary retention, and formulate an adaptive model for local contexts. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected from one primary and three supporting informants through interviews, observations, document analysis, and stimulated recall sessions. Analysis revealed that the primary informant developed a sophisticated multi – modal repetition system with four techniques; temporal spacing, multi – modal reinforcement, contextual variation, and self- testing. Developments factors included prior learning experiences, parental influence, teacher methodology, and assessment patterns. Thematic analysis yielded five themes: systematic organization, multimodal implementation, metacognitive awareness, contextual influences, and strategy evolution. This research strategies gaps in literature by examining vocabulary learning in rural coastal schools, adaption of repetition strategies to local contexts, and integration of traditional strategies with innovative elements under limited technological resources. Findings contribute to developing more inclusive vocabulary learning models for diverse educational contexts in Indonesia.
