Abstract

This study investigates lecturers' perceptions of metacognitive scaffolding in writing instruction at Universitas Halu Oleo. Utilizing a qualitative exploratory case study design, data were collected through interviews with three lecturers from the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education. Thematic analysis revealed that while lecturers acknowledge the benefits of metacognitive scaffolding for developing independent writers, they encounter obstacles such as large class sizes, time constraints, and varied student engagement. The study aimed to provide insights for improving writing instruction practices and policy development. Lecturers discovered that metacognitive scaffolding is essential for helping students develop writing performances and engagement. The study’s findings align with literature emphasizing the importance of metacognitive strategies and structured feedback in writing instruction. The integration of technology and the positive impact of lecturers' personalities further support the effectiveness of metacognitive scaffolding in enhancing students' writing performance and engagement. Lecturers perceive the implementation of metacognitive scaffolding in writing courses as crucial for improving students' writing performance and fostering independent, reflective learning, although they acknowledge challenges such as students' difficulties with coherence and vocabulary and the distractions of technology.

Abstract

The integration of e-learning platforms in university settings has experienced notable growth, especially with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. This qualitative case study explored university lecturers' perceptions regarding the use of e-learning for teaching English literacy skills, specifically reading and writing. Semi-structured interviews were utilized for data collection with six lecturers from the English Department at Universitas Sulawesi Barat, Indonesia, who taught literacy courses during the 2022/2023 academic year. The findings revealed a spectrum of lecturers' experiences, beliefs, and attitudes toward e-learning-based literacy instruction. While initial challenges were encountered during the transition to online learning, the lecturers recognized benefits such as flexibility, efficient material sharing, and enabling remote assignments. However, connectivity issues, difficulties monitoring student progress, and the need for robust technological skills were identified as significant challenges. The lecturers advocated learner-centered, multimodal pedagogical approaches and emphasized the importance of balanced, blended learning that integrates both traditional classroom and online elements. The study highlights the potential of e-learning for enhancing English literacy education while underscoring the need to address infrastructural and pedagogical barriers.
