Abstract

This study aims to explore the dynamics of communication skills of Indonesian students’ lived experiences during the International Credit Transfer (ICT) program in the Philippines. We apply the phenomenology method with a stimulated-recall interview to find out students' lived experiences to recall the communication skill dynamics while studying at Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology in the Philippines for one semester. 3 students (1 female and 2 male students) as participants were selected purposively. Data was analyzed thematically following six phases, 1) become familiar with the data, 2) generate initial codes, 3) search for themes, 4) review themes, 5) define themes, and 6) write-up. The result of the research demonstrated that after taking part in the ICT program, Indonesian students' communication abilities increased in three areas: verbal, written, and social communication skills. Verbal communication skills involve idea presentation, overcoming language barriers, collaborative presentation, and teamwork. While written communication skills include aspects of using social media for collaboration, assignment models, and active communication involvement. Besides, social communication skills include reaching a consensus, body language communication, cultural sensitivity, and language learning. All these information provides a significant communication skills impact enhancement that offers Indonesian students a valuable opportunity to enhance their communication skills verbally, written, and social through various classroom activities and interactions in the ICT program.

Abstract

In Indonesia’s elementary education, English vocabulary acquisition remains challenging due to limited exposure and traditional methods. Digital flashcards, recognized for their interactivity and accessibility, offer a potential solution, yet their efficacy in low-resource settings is underexplored. This study investigates the effectiveness of Canva-based digital flashcards in enhancing vocabulary comprehension among Grade I students at SD Negeri 50 Kendari, a school with minimal English proficiency. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed with 24 students. Pretest and posttest data (10 multiple-choice questions) were analyzed using SPSS 16.0, including paired samples t-tests (α = 0.05). Results showed a significant increase in mean scores from 21.25 (pretest) to 46.25 (posttest) (p = 0.000), confirming digital flashcards’ effectiveness. However, external factors (e.g., motivation) were noted as limitations. The study underscores digital flashcards’ utility in resource-constrained contexts and advocates for further research on long-term retention, multimodal integration, and adaptive technologies. Practical contributions include a replicable model for teachers using Canva to create low-cost, engaging materials.
