Abstract

This study explores the strategies employed by elementary school English teachers in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum. The research focuses on understanding how teachers adapt their instructional practices, utilize resources, and address challenges in fostering student-centered learning. Data were collected from five teachers in Jakarta using a qualitative descriptive approach, supported by questionnaires. The findings reveal that teachers use diverse teaching resources, active learning methods, and interdisciplinary integration to engage students and improve communication skills. However, challenges such as limited instructional time, inadequate facilities, and uneven training opportunities hinder the full implementation of the curriculum. This study underscores the importance of professional development and resource allocation to enhance curriculum delivery, offering insights into improving English language education at the elementary level.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the visual components of a Pearson primary school English textbook. By applying visual semiotic theory to the visual aspects (Barthes, 1977), this research demonstrates that the EFL textbook has three kinds of multicultural values: respect for other people's traditions, appreciation for women's equal rights, and appreciation for other people's viewpoints. Three photos exemplified respect for other people's traditions, one exemplified gratitude for women's equal rights, and two exemplified appreciation for another person's viewpoint. Additionally, two visual components identified in this research are classified as source culture (SC), four visual elements are classified as universality culture (UC), and there are no visual elements that reflect target culture (TC). The current study discovered that the EFL Pearson textbook for Indonesian primary school continues to have an asymmetric depiction of multicultural values.

Abstract

Previous research has explored politeness strategies in contexts such as classroom interactions and online communication; however, further investigation across diverse dimensions of educational discourse is necessary. This study examines the politeness strategies utilized by lecturers when delivering Written Corrective Feedback (WCF) to undergraduate EFL students in Indonesia. This research adopted a descriptive qualitative research design comprising data from twelve files of WCF collected from the Contrastive Error Analysis course at a public university in Indonesia. Discourse-based coding was employed to analyze the data, identifying the four maxims of politeness theory: positive politeness, negative politeness, off-record strategies, and bald-on-record expressions. The findings showed that the lecturer applied all four politeness strategies; furthermore, positive and negative politeness were the most frequently used. Positive politeness was expressed through praise, encouragement, and inclusive language to enhance students' confidence, whereas negative politeness was demonstrated through hedging, indirect suggestions, and question forms that maintained student autonomy. Off-record strategies primarily addressed higher-order issues, including coherence and argumentation, while bald-on-record strategies were limited to surface-level corrections. The findings enhance the understanding of feedback discourse and provide implications for improving feedback practices in EFL contexts, especially within Indonesian higher education.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of various teaching strategies on student engagement in an English Language Teaching (ELT) classroom at the university level. Data from a 90-minute online postgraduate course on second language acquisition were gathered using qualitative discourse analysis, through recorded classroom interaction conducted via Zoom. For identifying collaborative, directive, probing, scaffolding, and facilitative interactional strategies, this study used qualitative discourse analysis of a 90-minute online postgraduate class on second language acquisition. Five illustrative examples of interaction were chosen from an online class conducted on Zoom, and discourse analysis was carried out using these examples to identify teacher discourse strategies and their impact on student participation. Autonomy and multidirectional communication were further encouraged via collaborative interactions. Conversely, directive methods resulted in fewer replies and lower levels of participation. Discourse evidence indicates that collaborative and facilitative techniques fostered more extended learner responses and sustained engagement, whereas directive moves discouraged engagement. this study makes a contribution with empirical findings from an EFL context in an Indonesian university setting in providing evidence that student-centered and interactionally responsive approaches to teaching, in particular when using facilitative questioning, scaffolding, probing, and collaborative discourse, have a major positive impact on online English class participation and meaning-making, in contrast to directive teaching approaches which have a constraining effect on online interaction.

Abstract

This study explores how gender is represented in English language education promotions on social media, focusing on Instagram content by @kampunginggrislc, a well-known English course provider in Pare, Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) based on Fairclough’s model and Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity, this research investigates six selected video posts. The findings show that male and female figures are portrayed differently in both verbal and visual elements. Male speakers are often positioned as authoritative and logical, while female speakers are associated with emotional, polite, and aesthetic values. These gendered performances reflect broader cultural expectations in Indonesian society. The study concludes that English language promotional content on social media not only serves educational purposes but also functions as a space where gender ideologies are reproduced and normalized. The research calls for greater awareness in creating inclusive educational media that supports gender equality.
