Abstract

This study investigates lecturers' experiences implementing digital learning in English reading classes in Indonesian higher education. With the widespread adoption of digital technology, English reading classes that previously relied on printed texts and face-to-face interactions increasingly integrate digital tools to enhance student engagement and comprehension. This research uses a qualitative approach to explore lecturers' experiences adapting their teaching methodologies with digital tools. The purposive sample involves five lecturers teaching English reading classes at Maros Muslim University who have experience with traditional methods and digital learning, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were collected through one-on-one interviews, providing rich, detailed accounts of how lecturers integrate digital learning into their teaching practices. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data, following the methodological framework of Braun & Clarke (2006). This approach involved systematically identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) within the data. The findings reveal that lecturers demonstrate high flexibility in using various digital devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets to meet different teaching needs. Lecturers also emphasize the importance of the interactive capabilities of digital tools, which can transform passive reading into a more dynamic and engaging experience. However, they also acknowledge the value of traditional learning materials like printed books, which remain important for tasks requiring deep engagement and critical thinking. The study highlights the need to balance digital and traditional learning resources to create inclusive and effective learning environments. The lecturers' experiences adapting to digital tools are crucial for successfully implementing digital learning and improving educational outcomes. This study provides valuable insights into the practical realities of digital learning implementation and strategies to support lecturers in this transition process.

Abstract

Genre-Based Instruction (GBI) is a structured approach that scaffolds students’ writing development by explicitly teaching genre conventions and guiding them through sequenced instructional stages. This qualitative study explores cognitive, emotional, and behavioral engagement among high school students who have experienced GBI in their writing instruction. This study, conducted at SMAN 1 Enrekang and SMAN 2 Enrekang, employs semi-structured interviews to capture students' lived experiences and perceptions. Using thematic analysis, findings reveal that GBI enhances cognitive engagement by improving genre awareness and structural clarity in writing, while emotional engagement is fostered through increased writing confidence and motivation, particularly in collaborative Joint Construction activities. Behavioral engagement is reflected in students’ active participation, peer interaction, and deeper involvement in the writing process. However, challenges include limited vocabulary acquisition, which hindered comprehension of genre-specific conventions, and time constraints, which restricted students’ ability to internalize writing structures before transitioning to independent tasks. These findings highlight the need for curricular flexibility to accommodate a more reflective writing process, as well as technology-supported vocabulary development to enhance students’ engagement with genre-specific text. While GBI effectively cultivates writing engagement across cognitive, emotional, and behavioral domains, its success depends on instructional refinements and professional development for teachers. Additionally, supportive policy frameworks are crucial to ensuring sustainable and adaptable implementation. This study contributes to ongoing discussions on effective writing pedagogy, offering insights into optimizing GBI for diverse educational contexts.
