Abstract

The phenomena of education graduate alumni selecting non-teaching employment was the main focus of this qualitative study on the employability of teacher education graduates after graduation. The present non-teaching jobs, the reasons behind the non-teaching career choice, the skills and abilities useful to their current work, and their opinions and feelings regarding their non-teaching occupation were all described using an interpretive phenomenology. One-on-one online interviews were used to collect the qualitative data, 3 categories were created in order to address specific research concerns. According to this research, there are three categories of non-teaching occupations currently held by graduates of teacher education programs: office work, non-education related training positions, and service and management. After careful investigation, it was also shown that graduates chose non-teaching careers due to their lack of commitment to the teaching profession, contextual influence, competitive pay, support for their passion and growth, flexibility, and desire for a balanced life. Additionally, professional values and attitudes, transversal skills, learning skills, documentation, and teaching abilities were useful qualities for their current non-teaching position. Graduates in teacher education who are not in teaching feel happy, fulfilled, and flexible. The results indicate that the basic competencies obtained in the Teacher Education Program (TEP) provide a multitude of skills that significantly enhance one's capacity to be flexible, adaptive, and productive in non-teaching roles.

Abstract

As professional teachers, teachers are expected to be able to produce scientific works by conducting research, not only experimental but also classroom action research (CAR). Henceforth, from their research, they are expected to be able to produce a scientific article and publish it in reputable national or international journals. Due to the importance of scientific articles for the teachers’ career, therefore, this study aims to describe the profile of secondary school English teachers’ competencies in writing a scientific article. By using a rubric adapted from CARS model, it was found out that they still got many difficulties in writing a good scientific article. Those difficulties cover constructing and developing the introduction section which comprises general background information about the phenomenon being investigated, the results of relevant previous studies and theoretical framework, research gaps, novelty, and research objectives; elaborating the research method and discussion which refers to the results of relevant theories and previous studies; and neglecting the use of the last ten-year references. Regarding those unsatisfactory results, therefore, it is strongly suggested for the them to learn deeper by having more practices and trainings or workshops on conducting research and writing scientific articles as the output of their research.

Abstract

Second Language Acquisition (SLA) has drawn considerable attention from researchers and educators seeking effective strategies to enhance language learning. One such approach that has gained traction is differentiated instruction which may be effective in enhancing students' second language acquisition process. To address this, a qualitative case study was conducted to examine the impact of differentiated instruction on students' second language (L2) acquisition. The study involved 15 participants who had undergone an English-intensive program at the university level. Data were collected through online open-ended questionnaires designed to capture cognitive, affective, and conative impacts. The findings reveal that differentiated instruction aligned with students' interests and abilities significantly enhances students' understanding, motivation, and active learning behaviors in their second language acquisition process. However, the study also identified challenges, including difficulties with independent acquisition and intrinsic motivation barriers. Future research should explore the long-term impacts of this research and develop strategies to address the identified challenges, ensuring a broader impact on student second language acquisition.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analzye the contents Youtube videos called Numberblocks on children’s acquisition of numbers. Numberblocks videos have the highest scores on the content analysis which are the accuracy, age-appropriateness, engagement, and repetition (score = 5) with the lowest scores on pedagogical approaches: real-world connections (score = 3) and interactivity (score = 1). The average score of the linguistic analysis is 4.15 with the lowest score on the language clarity especially on the pace of speech. Numberblocks videos have the perfect average score 5 on the presentation analysis. And in the visual analysis, numbers are mostly represented in various ways (score = 4,5) but real-world examples are rarely used to illustrate number concepts (score = 2,5). It can be concluded that Numberblocks videos are successful to drag young learners’ concept of numbers into the blocks and this helps their acquisition with numbers. However, parents' guidance is needed so that young learners will have more interaction and correlate the idea into real world situations and examples.

Abstract

This study investigated the learning styles of high-achieving postgraduate students, a topic with conflicting findings in existing literature on the relationship between learning styles and academic achievement. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research sought to gain a deeper understanding of this phenomenon by utilizing two distinct instruments. First, the VARK questionnaire was administered to provide a quantitative measure of each participant's sensory preferences. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were conducted to explore their actual learning strategies and experiences in the specific context of a master's degree program. The findings revealed a compelling divergence: while the questionnaire identified distinct sensory preferences for each participant, their academic practices were not rigidly aligned with these results. Instead, their success appeared to be a product of a strategic and adaptive approach, with a willingness to employ diverse methods like reading and practicing to meet the rigorous demands of their curriculum. This suggests that academic achievement in higher education is less about a fixed learning style and more about a student's capacity for self-regulated, metacognitive adaptation. These results offer a nuanced perspective on the learning style debate, emphasizing the importance of cultivating flexible learning strategies rather than simply diagnosing a single preference.
