Abstract

The study aimed to discover (1) The socio-afffective strategies students use in learning speaking skills. (2) How students applied the socio-affective strategies in learning speaking skills. This study is a type of qualitative research that uses qualitative descriptive methods to collect the data. Interviews and documentation were used as the instruments to collect the data. Five students were selected as participants by using a purposive random sampling technique. This study showed that the students used all types of socio-affective strategies: asking questions, cooperating with others, lowering anxiety, self-reinforcement, self-talk, taking someone’ temperature, empathizing with others, and social-mediating. Eventually, among those socio-affective strategies, the students frequently ask questions, cooperate with others, and engage in self-talk. The researcher concluded that the socio-affective strategies are helpful for them to interact with teachers and friends, build self-confidence, and enhance their knowledge of English, especially in speaking skills.Keywords: Socio-Affective Strategies and Speaking Skills.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tantangan dan strategi komunikasi antarbudaya pada mahasiswa perguruan tinggi di Indonesia dalam era globalisasi. Penelitian ini dilandasi oleh meningkatnya intensitas interaksi lintas budaya di lingkungan pendidikan tinggi, yang menuntut mahasiswa untuk mengembangkan kompetensi komunikasi antarbudaya yang adaptif dan reflektif. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan melibatkan 20 partisipan dari berbagai program studi yang memiliki pengalaman komunikasi antarbudaya melalui kegiatan pertukaran mahasiswa, kolaborasi internasional, maupun aktivitas akademik lintas budaya. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur, observasi, serta analisis dokumen reflektif. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis tematik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tiga tema utama, yaitu: (1) hambatan bahasa yang meliputi keterbatasan kosakata, perbedaan aksen, serta kesulitan dalam memahami makna pragmatik; (2) adaptasi budaya yang mencakup tahapan stres, penyesuaian, dan perkembangan identitas multikultural; serta (3) strategi komunikasi yang meliputi upaya klarifikasi, penyesuaian nonverbal, dan empati budaya guna menjaga efektivitas interaksi. Temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa keberhasilan komunikasi antarbudaya tidak hanya bergantung pada kemampuan linguistik, tetapi juga pada kesadaran budaya, refleksi diri, dan kemampuan adaptasi sosial. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini mengimplikasikan pentingnya integrasi kompetensi antarbudaya ke dalam kurikulum pendidikan tinggi melalui pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman, kolaborasi internasional, dan refleksi antarbudaya. Dengan demikian, mahasiswa dapat meningkatkan kesadaran global, empati antarbudaya, serta kemampuan berkomunikasi secara efektif dalam lingkungan multikultural yang beragam.

Abstract

This study explores teachers’ perceptions of implementing Project-Based Learning (PJBL) in ninth-grade speaking classes. As speaking skills are essential for effective communication and academic success, innovative teaching methods like PJBL are increasingly viewed as strategies to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. Through qualitative methods, including semi-structured interviews and classroom observations, this research investigates how teachers perceive the effectiveness, challenges, and benefits of using PJBL in speaking instruction. The findings reveal that teachers generally hold both positive and negative perceptions of PJBL. They appreciate its ability to improve student motivation, collaboration, and speaking fluency, while also identifying practical challenges such as time constraints, differing student proficiency levels, and limited teacher training. The study concludes that PJBL holds significant promise for improving students’ speaking skills in junior high schools, yet its success relies on systemic support, sufficient resources, and continuous teacher professional development.

Abstract

This study examines the growing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in English Language Teaching (ELT), particularly in flipped classroom environments, and explores how students perceive its use in higher education. A qualitative case study design was employed to gain an in-depth understanding of students’ experiences in an AI-supported flipped classroom setting. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that AI serves as an effective support tool for pre-class learning, enabling students to understand materials by summarizing texts, simplifying complex explanations, and improving vocabulary comprehension. Additionally, integrating AI enhances students’ Engagement, learning readiness, motivation, and curiosity, as students become more active in classroom discussions after preparing in advance. However, several challenges were identified, including inaccuracies in AI-generated information, the need for verification, overreliance on AI tools, and technical limitations. In conclusion, while AI-integrated flipped learning offers meaningful opportunities to support independent and active learning, its implementation requires responsible, critical use. These findings provide practical insights for educators in designing effective AI-supported flipped classrooms in higher education.

Abstract

This study explores gender differences in language use on Social Media X, focusing on how male and female users employ language in their interactions. Using Domination Theory by Robin Lakoff (1970) as a framework, the research analyzes the language patterns of male and female users, highlighting distinct differences in communication styles. Female users are found to be more expressive, using language that emphasizes emotion, empathy, and relational bonding, while male users tend to prioritize rationality, factual communication, and problem-solving. The study reveals that females often use more words, show higher levels of emotional expression, and employ emoticons more frequently, whereas males use more direct, argumentative language and engage in competitive discourse. Additionally, males tend to use regional languages, while females favor standard Indonesian. The study also identifies key factors influencing language use, including gender-specific socialization, psychological traits, cultural expectations, and technological features of Social Media X. The findings suggest that while gender differences in language use are evident, both genders share common communication goals, such as message clarity and understanding. The research concludes that recognizing these gendered communication styles can improve social media interactions, enhance empathy, and reduce miscommunication, fostering more inclusive and effective online discourse. The study recommends training users on gender differences, promoting empathetic and rational communication, and supporting linguistic diversity on the platform to improve communication effectiveness. Keywords: Gender Differences, Language Use, Social Media X
