Abstract

Within the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context of higher education, there is a discernible emphasis on academic writing, often overshadowing the realm of creative writing. Nevertheless, creative writing remains a prevalent and integral component of EFL education. This study endeavors to scrutinize the perceptions of EFL students regarding creative writing and elucidate the potential benefits derived from its practice. Employing a qualitative approach, the research conducted in-depth interviews as its primary mode of data collection, engaging six students enrolled in an English Education Study Program in Indonesia. These students had actively chosen to participate in an elective course centered on literary works. The study's findings revealed nuanced perspectives among students, highlighting the intricacies associated with creative writing. Students perceive creative writing as intriguing, underscoring the necessity for its inclusion in higher education. Simultaneously, they acknowledge its potential difficulty and emphasize the importance of clarity in its instructional delivery. Furthermore, the research discerned that creative writing serves as a valuable tool for emotional expression, a conduit for the development of creativity and imagination, and a means to refine writing and language skills. The implications of these findings extend beyond the conventional realm of language mastery, emphasizing the multifaceted advantages that creative writing offers in an educational context. Consequently, educators in higher education are urged to deliberate and meticulously plan the incorporation of language in creative writing classes or activities. Recognizing and leveraging the broader educational benefits of creative writing can enhance the pedagogical approach, fostering a more comprehensive and enriching learning experience for EFL students.

Abstract

In the learning process, the teacher talk is critical because it can help the success of the learning process, especially in mastering English as a foreign language (EFL) at various levels of education. This narrative review aims to determine the form of teacher talk and its importance to EFL learners at different educational levels. This study uses secondary data from 13 journal articles, which are research results on English teacher talk from various levels of education and settings and published between 2010-2020. The articles were accessed through several databases available to the researchers. All data were synthesized based on two research questions. The results of this study were the discovery of 4 categories of teacher talk forms based on (1) speech modification to facilitate learners, (2) the teacher's role as a facilitator, (3) responses to learners, and (4) their attitude in the classroom. Teacher talk is important because it can provide correct language input to learners. This narrative review can provide new insights to EFL teachers at all levels of education regarding the forms of teacher talk that they can use and how the talks can help the learning process and outcomes. HIGHLIGHTS: Teacher talk can be disseminated in the forms of speech modification to facilitate learners, teachers’ role as a facilitator, responses to learners, and teachers’ attitude in the classroom. Teacher talk is important because it can provide correct language input to learners and help them develop and improve their ability to speak English. The forms and benefits of the teacher talk cover any level of education contexts.
