Abstract

This study aims to identify common pronunciation errors among students in tourism-based schools in Toraja, Indonesia, and assess the potential application of English Speaking Management (ESM) methods as a structured approach to improve pronunciation. With the growing importance of English proficiency in the tourism sector, especially in regions like Toraja, improving pronunciation is crucial for enhancing communication with international visitors. Using a qualitative-collaborative research approach, data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with 15 teachers and 30 students. The study revealed that phonemic errors, stress misplacement, and difficulties with consonant clusters were prevalent among students. The implementation of ESM methods, including drilling, role play, and technology integration, showed significant improvements in pronunciation accuracy and students’ speaking confidence. The findings support the potential of ESM as a useful tool in addressing pronunciation challenges and enhancing language learning in tourism-focused educational settings. This research aligns with national agendas to improve education quality and supports SDG goals 4 (Quality Education) and 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth).

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the strategies employed by students to uphold academic integrity and demonstrate responsibility when utilizing artificial intelligence tools in the research proposal writing process. A descriptive qualitative design with a phenomenological orientation was utilized in this research. The design was to investigate the lived experiences of participants. The subjects of this study consisted of three intentionally chosen undergraduate students from the English Education Study Program at a university in Toraja. They were engaged in the preparation of research proposals utilizing artificial intelligence support. Data collection involved semi-structured interviews and direct observations. The analysis was conducted through iterative qualitative techniques such as data reduction, coding, theme categorization, data display, and conclusion drawing with verification. The findings reveal ongoing issues related to academic integrity and transparency, particularly regarding the inconsistent citation of sources produced by artificial intelligence and differing approaches to paraphrasing. The findings show that the participants exhibited ethical behavior by paraphrasing and verifying outputs. on the other hand, they also relied heavily on tools without adequate critical assessment, prompting inquiries into accountability for content accuracy. The findings indicate that the ethical application of artificial intelligence in scholarly writing necessitates a combination of ethical understanding and technical proficiency. It follows that educational programs are required to integrate teachings on the ethical utilization of digital resources, while institutions must establish transparent policies to maintain integrity in student writing.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of using local tourism pictures as English learning media on students’ vocabulary mastery and learning motivation at the elementary level. The research was motivated by the persistent challenges Indonesian learners face in understanding, memorizing, and retaining English vocabulary, which often leads to low motivation and limited engagement. A quantitative one-group pretest–posttest design was employed, involving 21 fifth-grade students from UPT SDN 14 Mengkendek, South Sulawesi. Vocabulary and motivation data were collected through pre- and post-tests and analyzed using paired-sample t-tests. Results revealed significant improvements in both vocabulary mastery (M = 52.62 to 72.14, p < .001) and learning motivation (M = 44.81 to 53.10, p < .001). These findings suggest that the use of local tourism images—such as Torajan landmarks—effectively supports vocabulary retention and fosters a stronger emotional connection to learning materials. The integration of culturally relevant visual media aligns with the principles of Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) and Self-Determination Theory, showing that when students learn through familiar, locally grounded visuals, they become more motivated and engaged. Overall, the findings contribute to English language education for young learners by providing empirical evidence that culturally relevant, contextual, and visual materials enhance learners’ engagement, comprehension, and motivation, and by offering practical pedagogical insights for teachers in designing culturally responsive and meaningful English learning materials at the primary school level.

Abstract

Kemampuan berkomunikasi dalam Bahasa Inggris merupakan salah satu kompetensi yang penting untuk dikembangkan sejak usia dini. Namun, anak-anak di daerah pedesaan sering kali memiliki keterbatasan kesempatan untuk mempraktikkan penggunaan Bahasa Inggris dalam situasi komunikasi yang nyata. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan komunikasi dasar, motivasi belajar, dan kepercayaan diri anak-anak Sekolah Minggu di Stasi Santo Petrus Tampo, Kabupaten Tana Toraja, melalui program pengajaran English Conversation. Kegiatan dilaksanakan selama tiga bulan, yaitu dari Maret hingga Mei 2026, dengan melibatkan anak-anak usia sekolah dasar sebagai peserta. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan komunikatif (Communicative Language Teaching) yang diterapkan melalui praktik percakapan, permainan bahasa, tanya jawab, dan aktivitas interaktif berbasis topik kehidupan sehari-hari. Program dilaksanakan dalam 21 pertemuan dengan materi yang mencakup aktivitas harian, keluarga, sekolah, hewan, profesi, transportasi, cuaca, dan topik lain yang dekat dengan pengalaman peserta. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kemampuan peserta dalam menggunakan kosakata dan ungkapan sederhana dalam percakapan Bahasa Inggris. Selain itu, peserta menunjukkan peningkatan motivasi belajar, partisipasi aktif selama pembelajaran, serta kepercayaan diri dalam menggunakan Bahasa Inggris untuk berkomunikasi. Meskipun terdapat beberapa kendala, seperti ketidakkonsistenan kehadiran peserta dan faktor cuaca, kegiatan dapat terlaksana dengan baik dan mencapai tujuan yang telah ditetapkan. Program ini menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan komunikatif efektif digunakan dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris bagi anak-anak di lingkungan nonformal dan dapat menjadi salah satu bentuk kontribusi perguruan tinggi dalam mendukung peningkatan kualitas pendidikan masyarakat.
