Abstract

This paper focuses on analyzing teachers’ perspective of using language games. The subjects were eleven  English teachers who teach at Muhammadiyah junior and senior high school located in Surabaya. They were taken by using proportional stratified random sampling. The details were seven from Muhammadiyah junior high schools and four from Muhammadiyah senior high schools.  This research took one English teacher from each school.  The research instruments were questionnaire and interview. Based on data analysis, it gathered several results; first the teachers prefer non digital language games. Second, if they apply language games in pre teaching, they become as “a bridge” to the new topic being discussed. When the teachers hold language game in the post teaching activity, the purpose is to check the students’ comprehension. The teachers agree that language games give positive insights toward the students in learning English.  However, these also bring some problem – the need of using L1 for students to understand how they run the language games and to win the game.

Abstract

Public speaking is the capability to speak in public with learning activities that occur through experiences and speaking practices in front of audiences. Different learning strategies the students apply in improving their speaking ability surely result in diverse speaking mastery and performances. This research aims to discover and explore what kind of learning strategies university students use in a public speaking course. Three students from the same class of public speaking course were selected as the subjects of the study. They are selected based on the score criteria: high-average score, medium-average score, and low-average score students. It was a descriptive qualitative study using questionnaires and interviews as the main instruments. The result shows that three types of students use three kinds of learning strategies: cognitive, socio-affective, and meta-cognitive strategies, but the main differences are in the factors of frequency and consistency of using the strategies. The researcher found that the high-average score student mostly used cognitive strategies to support their mastery of public speaking. The high-achieving student regularly watches and listens to English speeches on YouTube and Instagram, which cover the specific strategy: auditory representation of cognitive strategy aspects. This study concludes that the student with a high-average score employs more cognitive techniques to promote mastery of public speaking. It also recommends more frequent language exposure to improve public speaking skills.

Abstract

This study explores differentiated learning in English classes at MAN Surabaya within the Independent Curriculum framework. Differentiated learning adapts teaching strategies, content, and assessments to meet students' varying needs, readiness levels, interests, and learning profiles. The research identifies strategies used by the teacher, student preferences, and implementation challenges. Using qualitative methods such as observations, interviews, and document analysis, the study finds that the teacher employs flexible grouping, tiered assignments, and individualized instruction to cater to diverse student needs. Students favor activities aligned with their interests and readiness, finding them more engaging and effective. However, challenges include limited resources, time constraints, and the need for ongoing professional development. The study concludes that differentiated learning can improve student engagement and achievement but requires significant support for the teacher, including resources, time for planning, and continuous professional development. These findings highlight the importance of educational policymakers and school administrators providing necessary support and resources to enable effective differentiated learning implementation in classrooms.

Abstract

Indonesian  minister of education  attemps to raise up an issue about  developing character education amongst indonesian schools based on the goal of Indonesia’s national education law No.20Year 2003. Adeyemi(2009) justifies that the concept of teaching character education should not be seen as the prerogative of subject alone. It should be taught integrated through any subject such as mathematics, science, humanities, social sciences, civic, sports, and so on, and in this case language, foreign language, national language, or even local language. The two ideas promoted here relating to build character in students are   storytelling and   bulletin board.  Those can be employed by teacher in establishing language class; in addition, inserting other pertinent subjects to the material is possible to do.  KEYWORDS:storytelling, bulletin board.
