Abstract

Well-being is an important aspect for EFL teachers that indicate their psychological and physical wellness state both in their professional and personal life. However, depersonalization that contextually happened in the workplace can negatively affect how they teach and work in the school, causing the feeling of indifference and threatening their well-being in return. On the other hand, depersonalization has been reported to be a contagion to other people, further exposing other colleagues to experiencing and feeling burned out. Questions emerged from this phenomenon, that is, how Indonesian mid-career EFL teachers’ depersonalization affects their motivation and how they employ the coping strategy to sustain motivational well-being. Using a narrative inquiry methodological approach, this study explores this phenomenon through a narrative frame with three Indonesian mid-career EFL teachers. Extensive thematic analysis showcased that Indonesian mid-career EFL teachers experienced depersonalization originating from poor colleague work ethics and inadequate leadership, causing their motivation well-being to plummet. However, the depersonalization was overshadowed by their respective sources of motivation to work as an EFL teacher. Strategies to mitigate such depersonalization were reported to be: (1) involving oneself in continuing professional development, (2) spiritual reflection, and (3) recreational rest. The study implies an indication that contextual factors such as organizational scholarship and interpersonal-collegial relationships are playing a critical role in shaping EFL teachers’ overall well-being.

Abstract

In developing the learners’ language competence, many educational institutions altered teachers to integrate computer-mediated communication (CMC) synchronously and asynchronously. However, the issue of engagement becomes another issue to be handled. Accordingly, in this literature review of 20 qualitative, 7 quantitative, and 8 mixed-method studies published in the high-ranked database from 2000-2021, we aim to examine the approaches to evaluate and indicators to facilitate the learners’ engagement, specifically on writing asynchronously. Asynchronous CMC became the concern of this study as it supports the learners to follow the simultaneous discussion and supports multiple learning styles. The reviewed studies were identified using behavior, cognition, and emotion approaches to evaluate the learners’ engagement. Thus, the types of indicators to facilitate the learners’ engagement are input, process, and outcomes. Finally, this review suggests it is useful to design writing courses that effectively conceptualize evaluation approaches and indicators to facilitate the learners’ engagement.

Abstract

The interaction between writers is essential in collaborative writing. Unfortunately, conflict could occasionally disrupt the interaction. This case study explores the conflict and negotiation among sixteen Indonesian graduate students during the collaborative writing. Three students were selected as focal respondents based on three criteria: (1) students’ engagement in learning, (2) students’ gender, and (3) English proficiency. The data of the study were mainly obtained from observations, interviews, and document analysis. The collected data were then analyzed using interactive model analysis. The study revealed three types of conflict in collaborative writing: (1) cognitive conflict, (2) socio-emotional conflict, and (3) process conflict. The conflict reasons, resolutions, and impacts were identified and discussed. This study implies that conflict during collaborative writing can impact students' writing quality.

Abstract

Relationships among students and teachers are important in a learning environment since teachers and students are the main components of learning activities. Telecollaboration attempts to connect language learners to native speakers in the online environment to facilitate their intercultural learning. As online learning activities need to pay attention to the relationship between the teacher and learner, this study investigates the impact of the relationship well-being that occurs in the telecollaboration program on the pre-service teacher’s future career. An autobiographical narrative inquiry was used in this study for an in-depth discussion of the critical incidents that happened in this program aimed to give the pre-service teachers insight for developing their professional identity in their future careers for the betterment of EFL education. Data were collected through the pre-service teacher’s diaries and artifacts in the form of photos during the telecollaboration program. Various issues of critical incidents are discussed including positive relationships and negative relationships reflected in the pre-service teacher’s future career that turn into adaptive reflection. This study has future implications for pre or in-service EFL teachers and directions for future research to pay more attention to the well-being of all aspects of education.

Abstract

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly transforming academic writing practices, raising concerns about its role in supporting the development of communicative competence. In English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts, where students often struggle to produce socially appropriate and contextually coherent texts, GenAI tools such as ChatGPT offer immediate linguistic support, model texts, and feedback. Despite the growing use of GenAI tools, limited classroom-based evidence exists on how GenAI supports EFL students’ written communicative competence in authentic tasks. This qualitative case study investigates the role of ChatGPT-5 in supporting EFL university students’ written communicative competence in an email-writing task and examines how teachers mediate AI-assisted learning. The study involved thirty-nine second-year Indonesian university students. Data were collected from students’ email drafts, semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and learning artifacts, including screen captures and peer feedback. The findings indicate that students demonstrated development in sociolinguistic and discourse competence, particularly in refining tone, applying appropriate politeness strategies, and improving cohesion and coherence in their written texts. Even though ChatGPT played a role in these changes, but it was not the only thing that contributed. The results are affected by the combination of AI-generated input, teacher guidance, peer feedback, and students’ ability to think critically about the AI’s suggestions. This suggests that pedagogical mediation is very important for helping students develop their communicative competence when they use AI.
