Abstract

Psychological factors play a significant role and have potential impact on the language learning process. There are diverse perspectives due to the complexity of psychological factors that have been explored by many scholars. Combining systematic literature review and thematic analysis as well as PRISMA protocol in synthesizing and analyzing the data, this study aimed to identify psychological factors and the predominant psychological factors contributing to successful English learning in EFL context through examining the recent studies. There are several psychological factors based on the findings which are enjoyment, anxiety, self-esteem, intelligence, motivation, interest, emotion, attitude, fear of mistakes, shyness, self-efficacy, trait emotional intelligence, unhealthy environment, fear of negative evaluation, relationship with peers and teachers, confidence, critical thinking, social pressure, self-criticism, and avoidance behavior. This study found that the predominant psychological factors are motivation and anxiety. This systematic literature review will contribute to developing more effective and supportive learning environments by providing the systematic classification of psychological factors.

Abstract

Understanding refusal strategies utilized by young learners in learning English as a foreign language (EFL) is essential for teachers to foster more effective interaction in the classroom. The present study explores how a young EFL learner applies refusal strategies when interacting during extensive reading (ER) activities. Data were collected through real-time observations, the learner’s diaries, and a parent interview, and further analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed how the young EFL learner applied more direct refusals, influenced by the learner’s developmental traits. Indirect refusals, which appeared mostly as avoidance, emerged frequently only during the initial ER sessions. Refusals, regardless, did not appear as frequent towards the end of ER sessions as the learner became comfortable and confident with the teacher’s scaffolding. Considering the findings, the current study suggests future studies to investigate how refusal strategies are applied by young EFL learners in a larger group, which may be influenced by different developmental traits, learning situations, and language proficiencies, to further generalize the findings.

Abstract

Environmental project-based language learning (EPBLL) is a promising approach for promoting language acquisition, environmental consciousness, and sustainable education among young learners. However, the present state of research on EPBLL in English language education for early learners needs to be better understood. This bibliometric study examines the state of EPBLL research over the past ten years. We conducted a bibliometric analysis of articles published between 2013 and 2023 that met our inclusion criteria using Scopus. Our analysis focused on publication trends, journal sources, citation counts, and identifying major research topics and themes in EPBLL research. Our study found a steady increase in EPBLL publications over the past ten years, with numerous journals contributing to this research field. We identified several important themes and areas of emphasis, such as the role of technology in EPBLL, the impact of EPBLL on language acquisition and environmental awareness, and the effectiveness of various pedagogical approaches to EPBLL. Our findings have significant implications for educators, researchers, and policymakers promoting sustainable education and language acquisition through project-based learning. This study provides insights into the state of EPBLL research in English language education for young learners and highlights essential research themes that can inform future studies in this area.

Abstract

Motivation is a key determinant of success in second language (L2) learning, and technology has emerged as a crucial factor in fostering motivation for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. A systematic synthesis of recent evidence remains scarce despite extensive research, particularly in light of technological advancements between 2019 and 2024. This study employed a systematic literature review (SLR) following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol to ensure methodological transparency and replicability. Six major databases (Google Scholar, Taylor & Francis, ProQuest, Wiley, Sage Pub, and Cambridge Core) were systematically searched using predefined keywords. The initial search yielded 50 peer-reviewed empirical studies published between 2019 and 2024; after applying stringent inclusion, exclusion, and quality assessment criteria, 26 eligible studies were analyzed. Data extraction and synthesis focused on four research questions: (1) research methods employed, (2) motivational frameworks used, (3) impacts of technology on motivation, and (4) technology tools that enhance motivation. Findings indicate a dominance of experimental (38.5%) and mixed-methods (26.9%) designs, with the socio-educational framework most frequently adopted, followed by self-determination theory, ARCS, and cognitive models. Technology shows a predominantly positive impact on motivation, with visual-based tools (AR/VR), social media-based platforms, and game-based applications demonstrating strong motivational benefits. However, effects vary by context and learner proficiency. A few studies report neutral or negative impacts, particularly with online platforms. This review highlights methodological gaps, calling for more longitudinal and mixed-methods research to explore contextual and long-term motivational effects, and provides evidence-based recommendations for selecting effective technology tools in EFL classrooms.

Abstract

Pre-service teachers’ (PST) beliefs and practices have been agreed as an initially vital basis to continue maintaining a qualified learning process. This article reviews the research on PSTs’ beliefs and practices concerning teaching and learning English as a foreign language (EFL) and the exploration of the complex relationship between EFL PSTs’ beliefs and practices. It encompasses a discussion about the nature of teachers’ beliefs, an overview of PSTs’ belief formation, and some previous studies on PSTs’ beliefs. The review of related literature summarizes the empirical studies on PSTs’ beliefs and practices from 2011 up to 2020, which reveal the diversity and similarity of the studies on EFL PSTs’ beliefs. The result obtained in this study depicts that PSTs’ beliefs about EFL teaching and learning are affected by prior language learning experiences, teacher education, and teaching practices. Besides, some constraints in the classroom setting can trigger the beliefs change covering time restriction, curriculum emphasis, students’ misbehavior, students’ competence, students’ motivation, or even PSTs’ motivation and confidence. Finally, when their tacit beliefs turn into explicit beliefs, PSTs can identify and assess their beliefs attributed to their classroom practices, from which EFL PST education can be informed to design better courses and prepare PSTs’ future careers. HIGHLIGHTS: EFL PSTs’ beliefs are acquired from many years of learning experiences they got from schools to teacher education, of which the condition has influenced what and how they learn to teach. Their beliefs, then, influence what they say and do in the classroom, which, in turn, shapes their beliefs. Some constraints in the classroom setting can trigger the beliefs changed: time restriction, curriculum emphasis, students’ misbehavior, students’ competence, students’ motivation, or even PSTs’ motivation and confidence.

Abstract

This paper examines the role of Joint Enterprise within Virtual Communities of Practice (VCoP) in the realm of English Language Teaching (ELT), particularly in relation to the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools. The study focuses on the discussions in five open Facebook groups, to explore how teachers collectively navigate the application of AI technologies. The discussions reflect an effort among teachers to not only integrate AI tools into their teaching practices but also to ensure these tools are used ethically and effectively, balancing technological advancements with pedagogical soundness. The findings of the study underscore the critical role of Joint Enterprise in fostering a community that is responsive to evolving educational technologies. HIGHLIGHTS: The study revealed that English teachers in the selected Facebook groups engaging collaboratively on Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, discussing their integration, acceptance, and application in teaching practices. The teachers also expressed concerns about AI in English Language Teaching (ELT), focusing on ethical use, over-reliance risks, and the importance of teacher involvement, highlighting a collective effort to address these AI-related challenges. Reflecting on the concept of Joint Enterprise within Virtual Communities of Practice (VCoP), the findings illustrate the dynamic roles assumed by community members, encompassing information sharers, knowledge seekers, critics, and learners.

Abstract

This study investigates the complex challenges, strategies, and skills development of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) undergraduate students during their thesis writing journey. While the undergraduate thesis represents a crucial milestone in higher education, EFL students face significant linguistic, psychological, andtechnical barriers that impact their academic progress. Using a qualitative approach and semi-structured interviews with eight undergraduate students from various Indonesian universities, this study examined their experiences in thesis writing. The research employed reflexive thematic analysis, using NVivo 15 software to process and analyze the data. The findings reveal three primary dimensions of challenges: linguistic knowledge and writing competence, psychological and emotional barriers, and resource-related technical constraints. Students employed various adaptive strategies, including self-management techniques, technological assistance, and comprehensive support networks to overcome these challenges. The study also identified the development of essential competencies in research methodology, critical thinking, and time management. The results highlight the need for integrated institutional support systems that address both academic and psychological aspects of thesis writing, suggesting curriculum modifications and enhanced supervision frameworks to better support EFL students in their academic journey.HIGHLIGHTS: EFL undergraduate students face three interconnected challenges during thesis writing:linguistic barriers (grammar, academic vocabulary, coherence), psychological obstacles(stress, isolation, imposter syndrome), and resource-technical constraints (limited accessto materials, technological difficulties). Successful thesis completion relies on adaptive strategies including structured self-management techniques, technological tools (AI writing assistants, referencemanagement software), and comprehensive support networks (supervisors, peers, family)that address both academic and emotional needs. The thesis writing journey develops essential transferable competencies beyond academicwriting, including advanced research skills, critical thinking abilities, and timemanagement proficiency that prepare students for future scholarly and professionalendeavors.

Abstract

This paper presents the online teaching practice program that influence EFL pre-service teachers’ (PSTs) emotional experiences as the pre-cursor of their professional identity construction. This study involved six   PSTs enrolled teaching practice program in an initial teacher education. Dialogic reflection before, during, and after teaching enactment was employed to dig up information about their emotional experiences in an online classroom setting. The data were analyzed using appraisal analysis (Martin and White, 2007) and thematic analysis. The results document negative emotional experiences such as feeling dissatisfaction, doubtful, and confusion which lead to positive emotional experiences, such as caring. Factors that influence PS Ts’ emotional experiences in online teaching practice are lack of Curriculum Knowledge (CrK), lack of subject-matter knowledge or Content Knowledge (CK), and lack of Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) in terms of assessing students’ competence, and the interlink between theory and practice. All PS Ts develop a good understanding of how to exploit technological tools by encouraging their self-concept. This study substantiates the importance of shared-space coaching for teacher mentors before they become an escort for PSTs who are going to be professional teacher mentors.

Abstract

Current developments in English Language Teaching (ELT) have heightened the urgent need for intercultural competence as another essential skill in contemporary language education. Today’s EFL teachers are required to possess intercultural competencies to effectively assist students in raising their intercultural awareness. This study aims to examine teachers’ international experiences regarding the development of their intercultural competence, utilizing the developmental model of intercultural sensitivity (DMIS) proposed by Bennett (1986, 2017) as the framework. Through the application of a multiple narrative approach, we analyzed the stories of two higher education teachers, collected via document study and three-cycle interviews. The results demonstrate the complexities of teachers’ intercultural competence development and highlight an important aspect: one’s intercultural progression, as they may flexibly alter based on the situation and condition faced at a given moment.

Abstract

The current study aims at exploring strategies of teaching speaking among EFL/ESL teachers in Indonesian and Malaysian secondary schools. The data were obtained from 55 Indonesian teachers and 9 teachers from Malaysia, who were asked to voluntarily fill out an open-ended questionnaire consisting of 11 items. The questions ranged from teaching strategies to challenges in teaching speaking and the use of IT in the classroom setting. The findings of the descriptive analysis showed that teachers in both countries used relatively similar strategies, except for the aspect regarding the proportion of English use in the classroom. In this case, Malaysian teachers used English most of the time in their speaking class, compared to their Indonesia counterparts who admitted using L1 in various proportions and/or situations. It can be safely assumed that the status of English in Indonesia and Malaysia (EFL vs. ESL) is responsible for this difference, with Malaysian teachers and students being more comfortable with the use of English in their daily encounters.
