Abstract

Considering the great responsibility and the role of teachers as educators, teachers must have professional competence and determination to reach the projected educational goal. This competence should be developed continuously by the teachers themselves and/or facilitated by the principal as the leader in the school. Therefore, good leadership is required to guide and direct the teachers as should. The principal’s leadership quality can be seen in the success of the school he/she leads. This study examines the school principal’s leadership and English teachers’ professionalism at a private A-accredited high school in Palembang. A qualitative method in case study design was utilized in this study. A school principal, a vice-principal, and three teachers of English were involved as the participants of the study. The data were collected through interviews and observations and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings of the study revealed that the school principal’s leadership plays a significant role in enhancing teachers’ English professionalism. The principal’s leadership styles are transformational and participative, which are characterized by vision articulation, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. The study also found that teachers of English at this school are highly professional. They have a strong commitment to their teaching profession and are constantly striving to improve their teaching skills and knowledge.

Abstract

Higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) are crucial in today`s fast-paced world of healthcare education. Healthcare professionals frequently encounter complex, unpredictable situations. HOTS enables them to assess patient conditions, make informed decisions, and solve problems effectively. These skills need to be taught to students of healthcare education. One of the ways is through the provision of HOTS-based learning materials in teaching English for specific purposes. The primary goal of this study was to investigate the students` need for English in relation to their future careers as paramedics. This study explores the needs of DIII Midwifery Study Program students at the Health Polytechnic, Ministry of Health in Palembang. Using a mixed-method approach incorporating both quantitative and qualitative, the research data were gathered using surveys for collecting quantitative data and semi-structured interviews for collecting qualitative data. The data was examined utilizing the Target Situation Analysis, Deficiency Analysis, Present Situation Analysis, and Strategy Analysis criteria for requirements analysis put forward by Hutchinson and Waters (1987). The study revealed that students of the Midwifery Program had a high interest in learning English, especially HOTS-based English reading materials. Additionally, the lecturer of English was also in need of a specific source of English material related to midwifery to support students learning English for specific purposes, as such material was not available in her teaching context.

Abstract

International mobility is a distinctive feature of the world of the 21st century. Individuals and their families are often moving due to business, job assignments, pursue further education etc. The children brought up in this mobility scenario are known as Third Culture Kids (TCKs). They are often exposed to different languages and cultures, what gives them unique abilities, but also brings numerous challenges. The objective of this article was to have a better understanding of TCKs living in Indonesia and what their journey of language acquisition in the country looked like. To answer these questions we collected data from 2 TCKs living in Indonesia, through interviews and artefacts using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that the TCKs living in Indonesia are traditional TCKs according to Pollock & Recken’s framework of TCKs. Regarding to their journey of language acquisition the parents played an important role choosing schools and implementing a family language policies at home in order to teach them their first language, hence, parents language. However the TCKs chose to use English, as their first language due to the third culture environment they were surrounded with.

Abstract

This study investigated the experiences of Indonesian students pursuing higher education in the United States, highlighting the importance of understanding their cultural adaptation, academic challenges, and social integration. Despite the significant presence of Indonesian students, comprehensive research addressing their unique experiences, and challenges in a new educational environment is limited. The study aims to understand their cultural adaptation, identify academic challenges, and examine strategies for social integration. A phenomenological qualitative approach was employed, utilizing semi-structured interviews with doctoral students to gather in-depth insights. Thematic analysis reveals that cultural adaptation is significantly influenced by language barriers, differing educational norms, and social dynamics. Participants reported academic challenges related to adjusting to critical thinking-based learning and independent study practices. Additionally, social integration is often complicated by cultural misunderstandings and the individualistic values prevalent in American society. To address these challenges, students employ strategies such as building support networks, engaging in campus activities, and utilizing institutional resources. This study underscores the necessity for proactive cultural engagement and institutional support to enhance international students' experiences and foster more inclusive educational environments.

Abstract

Reading literacy has become global concern that Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has conducted Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) reading literacy test to assess what students know and can do in reading. Participating in PISA test since 2000, Indonesian students’ reading literacy has not shown a significant improvement. Because PISA reading literacy test is adapted into language of instruction of each participating country, it is Indonesian students’ reading literacy in Indonesian language which is not satisfactory. Considering the fact that Indonesian fifteen-year-old students study English as a compulsory subject, investigating students’ reading literacy in English is considered important. There has been much research investigating issues in reading achievement in Indonesia, but there are limited studies focussing on PISA reading literacy based on school location, school accreditation, gender, and academic major. Employing survey study design, this study assessed reading literacy of two thousand and two hundred secondary school students sampled from twenty four public secondary schools accredited A+, A, and B in Palembang. Data were obtained using PISA reading literacy test 2009 and were analysed statistically. The findings revealed that students’ English literacy was in level 3 (low category). Students studied at schools in central urban district performed better than those of in peri urban district. Those from secondary schools accredited A+ outperformed their counterparts in schools accredited A and B. Female students performed slightly better than male. Students majoring in science were better than those of majoring in social. The results lead to the conclusion that students’ English literacy achievement should be enhanced using innovating strategies to achieve targeted literacy level that is needed to survive in school academic life.
