Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of interactive learning through Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in English language education for junior high school students. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research aims to explore how ICT is applied in English classrooms, the challenges faced by teachers and students, and its effectiveness in enhancing students’ understanding and motivation. Data were gathered through interviews with English teachers and questionnaires completed by students. The findings reveal that teachers use various digital platforms such as Quizizz, Padlet, YouTube, and Word wall to create engaging and interactive learning environments. These tools are effective in increasing students’ participation, improving comprehension, and supporting vocabulary acquisition. Students responded positively, indicating that ICT-based learning made lessons more enjoyable and easier to follow. However, several challenges were identified, including classroom management difficulties and the need for continuous teacher training in digital pedagogy. The study concludes that while ICT integration offers substantial benefits in motivating students and improving learning outcomes, its success relies on teachers’ digital competence and institutional support. The results highlight the need for strategic implementation, regular professional development, and appropriate infrastructure to ensure sustainable and effective use of ICT in English language education.

Abstract

Writing narrative texts poses significant challenges for many EFL students, including difficulties in organizing ideas, using appropriate vocabulary, and applying correct grammar. This study explores the effectiveness of short videos in improving students’ narrative text writing skills, focusing on creativity, vocabulary, and writing structure. A quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test was used. The participants were 36 eighth-grade students from a junior high school. Data were collected using writing tests and questionnaires administered before and after the intervention. During the treatment, students were taught narrative writing through short video media, designed to provide visual and auditory input to stimulate ideas and model narrative structures. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in students' narrative writing performance, with average scores increasing from 51.53 in the pre-test to 80 in the post-test. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and Paired Samples t-Test confirmed the effectiveness of the intervention. Questionnaire findings also indicated increased motivation, engagement, and understanding of narrative elements. These outcomes suggest that integrating short videos into EFL writing instruction can enhance students’ creativity, enrich their vocabulary, and strengthen their ability to construct coherent narratives. The findings advocate for more dynamic and multimodal teaching approaches to support students in developing effective writing skills.

Abstract

This study investigates the perception of morphological awareness and its relationship to reading comprehension among EFL university students using a mixed-methods approach. A total of 57 participants completed questionnaires and reading comprehension tests, followed by interviews with 5 selected respondents. The quantitative findings revealed that students generally held positive perceptions of morphological awareness, with mean scores ranging from 2.84 to 3.28, and demonstrated strong reading comprehension performance (M = 80.24, SD = 6.014). A Pearson correlation analysis showed a statistically significant but modest positive relationship between morphological awareness and reading comprehension (r = 0.293, p = 0.027), and the questionnaire used had acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.744). The qualitative results reinforced these findings by illustrating that students frequently used morphological strategies such as word decomposition and contextual guessing to make sense of unfamiliar words. Participants also expressed that these strategies enhanced their reading confidence and reduced reliance on dictionaries or translation tools. Furthermore, many students advocated for greater emphasis on morphological instruction in English reading classes, especially in academic settings. These results suggest that morphological awareness contributes meaningfully to EFL learners’ reading development and supports the integration of morphology-based strategies in language education curricula.
