Abstract

Due to the use of English worldwide as a lingua franca and to keep up with the global trend of teaching English as a Medium of Instructions (EMI), this has brought diverse responses and perspectives on how English should be perceived. For educational institutions, having English as a medium of instructions in the classes could be very challenging, moreover with the fact that English is not the native language of Indonesians. The language barrier for English learners might demotivate them to keep on learning and use English in daily interactions. Therefore, through qualitative research design the study aims to investigate and analyze how the use of EMI in classes brings transformations within and through them. Further, the study will also explore learners’ potentials through variety of strategies that will bring them to be reflective and responsive learners in facing any challenges, including language barriers in English learning process. Through class observations, questionnaires, and in-depth interviews, it was hoped that While EMI is often positioned as a strategy for global competitiveness, its success depends on how learners experience language use, identity affirmation, and emotional safety in the classroom. This study explores how EMI can be leveraged to foster a supportive English-speaking culture among preservice teachers in Indonesia. Drawing on qualitative data from classroom observations, questionnaires, and interviews, the research highlights the transformative potential of EMI when paired with culturally responsive and emotionally resonant pedagogies. Findings suggest that confidence-building strategies, translanguaging practices, and reflective tasks are keys to nurturing learner agency and sustained English use.

Abstract

AbstractChristian education views students as an image of God. During the pandemic of COVID-19, students encountered learning loss phenomena which has become a challenge for Christian schools. Thus, this study aims to elaborate the difference between Christian perspective and secular perspective toward the “learning loss’ phenomena; how important a holistic education is to be implemented in the classroom; and to explain the role of the teacher as a facilitator to implement holistic learning in the classroom. The research method used in this study is literature review. The result showed that students as the image of God should be valued as a whole person, not only partially as viewed from secular perspectives. Christian teachers need to be equipped to see and teach their students holistically, such as planning their lessons to be ”˜contextual’ and relevant for their students in order to raise awareness for tolerance, empower their talents, and conduct learning processes through loving interaction and applying holistic assessments. A recommendation for further research is to implement holistic education at primary level and elaborate the challenges faced by the teacher. Bahasa Indonesia AbstrakPendidikan Kristen melihat siswa sebagai Image of God. Selama pandemi covid-19 siswa menghadapi satu fenomena, yaitu Learning Loss, di mana terdapat penurunan dalam proses pembelajaran siswa. Oleh karena itu, tujuan dari paper ini adalah untuk menjelaskan perbedaan antara sudut pandang kekristenan dengan sudut pandang sekuler terkait fenomena “learning loss; pentingnya penerapan pendidikan holistis di dalam kelas, dan menjelaskan peran guru sebagai fasilitator dalam mengimplementasikan pendidikan holistis di dalam kelas. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan metode kajian literatur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa murid sebagai Image of God seharusnya dididik sebagai manusia yang utuh, dan tidak hanya sebagian seperti halnya dalam pandangan sekuler. Guru Kristen harus diperlengkapi agar dapat melihat dan mengajar secara holistik. Misalnya, merencanakan pembelajaran yang kontekstual dan relevan untuk siswa agar dapat membangkitkan kesadaran mereka akan toleransi dan mengembangkan talenta mereka. Serta mengimplementasikan pendidikan holistik di dalam kelas melalui interaksi yang didasarkan pada kasih serta penerapan penilaian holistik kepada siswa. Sebagai rekomendasi, peneliti menyarankan agar penelitian selanjutnya berfokus pada penerapan pendidikan holistik kepada murid di Sekolah Dasar serta memaparkan tantangan-tantangan yang dihadapi oleh Guru.
