Abstract

Understanding multilingualism in teaching and learning extensive listening is very useful for both lecturer and student. In doing extensive listening, the lecturer should equalize the students’ understanding of the different English in the world because there are several Englishes in the world that have different in pronunciation, accent, and speed of speech in order to make them successful in doing extensive listening by utilizing Schoology to record students’ activities in extensive listening and curated materials. Then, the lecturer should consider the students’ background, which influenced their listening performance, especially in doing extensive listening by utilizing Schoology. Their ability to choose and understand the materials and use Schoology may differ from one to another. Not only that, students’ ability to use and access the given link and Schoology also impacts students whether they can show good performance in extensive listening or not. To minimize those problems, the lecturer should help students choose the appropriate materials and familiarize them with different Englishes and Schoology as the application used to record their extensive listening activities.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the moves and steps of the CARS model contained in the final project of Genre Analysis (GA) of English language education for students in Indonesia. This study aims to describe the moves and steps of the Creating a Research Space (CARS) model that is presented in the English-language students' Genre Analysis (GA) theses of several universities in Indonesia. The model used in this study is the CARS model of Swales which consists of three moves. The research method is qualitative. The data in this study are five abstract scripts of students of the English Language Education study program available in Indonesia. Two abstract scripts were obtained from the document repository of the University of Education Indonesia and three abstracts from the documents of the Islamic University of Indonesia for 2023. The data collection technique used is the library, which is the primary data source for the written source. The data analysis techniques used qualitative descriptive techniques. These results show that the Creating a Research Space (CARS) model developed by Swales can be effectively applied to the analysis of abstract genres in English language student scripts. All moves and steps in the CARS model, ie M-1 (creating analysis fields), M-2 (solving problems in analysis), and M-3 (absorbing problems), can be clearly identified in the abstract scripts studied. From this point of view, the researchers emphasize that applying the CARS model not only helps in abstract structural analysis but also provides a deeper insight into how to compose an informative, coherent, and consistent with academic standards.

Abstract

The present study aims to analyze the students' motivation towards the use of ICT in learning English. There are two types of motivation tested in this study: intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic motivation includes self-efficacy and self-desire, while extrinsic motivation includes environmental factors and goals to be achieved. The participants in the present study are 33 eighth-semester university students from various departments in the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, except English Education Department, from one private university in Cirebon, West Java, Indonesia, who got the English lessons as a subject taught in that university. The participants are from the Department of Economics Education, Mathematics Education, Elementary School Education, and Indonesian Language and Literature Education. The present study uses a qualitative case study method. The data is gathered from the distribution of online questionnaires and interviews. The questionnaire contains 18 questions and is divided into four parts: self-efficacy, self-desire, environmental factor, and goal to be achieved. Then, the writers conduct indirect interviews through one of the telecommunications applications, namely WhatsApp. The results indicated that intrinsic motivation was the motivation that most influenced non-English Department students' motivation to learn English using ICT. The most prominent intrinsic motivation was self-desire, where this motivation arose within oneself without being influenced by external or environmental factors.

Abstract

This study examines a single pre-service teacher's perspective on using short story videos to teach English to primary school students, utilizing the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) model and a constructivist approach. Rather than relying on classroom observations, it emphasizes the teacher’s self-reported experiences and reflections to explore the integration of content knowledge, pedagogical strategies, and technological tools. Data were gathered through a semi-structured interview conducted during the participant’s teaching practicum in a fifth-grade classroom. The participant, a 24 years old undergraduate student in her final year, actively engaged in classroom instruction during her practicum and had completed relevant coursework in English language teaching. Findings indicate that short story videos were viewed as engaging and pedagogically valuable, although the integration across TPACK domains was inconsistent. While the participant maintained a positive attitude towards using video media, she encountered challenges related to technological confidence and the alignment of media with content. This study underscores that TPACK-based reflective interviews can yield valuable insights into the development of preservice teachers, even in the absence of direct classroom observation.

Abstract

Gamification has emerged as an innovative approach in English education, addressing persistent challenges related to low student motivation and limited language achievement. Current research highlights the potential of game-based elements—such as points, badges, and leaderboards—to enhance engagement and participation; however, many studies focus primarily on motivation or short-term outcomes rather than measurable improvements in language proficiency. This gap indicates a need for empirical evidence that directly connects gamification with both motivational and performance-based outcomes in structured classroom settings. This study aims to examine the impact of gamified English learning activities on students’ motivation and language achievement. Employing an experimental design, the study involved 60 undergraduate students divided into a gamified group and a non-gamified group. Data were collected through motivation surveys, language achievement tests, and classroom observations over a six-week intervention period. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent-samples t-tests with SPSS to determine significant differences between groups. The findings reveal that students in the gamified group demonstrated significantly higher motivation, reflected in greater enthusiasm, persistence, and participation. In addition, they achieved substantially higher language performance scores, showing improvements in accuracy, fluency, and task completion. Statistical results confirmed that these differences were highly significant, with large effect sizes in both motivation and achievement. These results suggest that gamification not only enhances engagement but also translates into measurable learning outcomes. The study implies that integrating well-designed game elements into English instruction can create a more interactive, motivating, and effective learning environment. This research contributes to the field by providing empirical evidence linking motivation and achievement, offering practical guidance for educators seeking to improve both student engagement and language proficiency through gamified learning strategies.
