Abstract

This study investigates the experiences of sixth-semester EFL undergraduate students at UIN Sumatera Utara in implementing daily English journaling to develop their writing skills. Specifically, it aims to (1) explore students’ engagement with journaling as a tool for writing development, (2) identify the perceived benefits of this practice, and (3) examine the challenges they face during the process. Using a qualitative approach with a phenomenological case study design, the research involved five purposively selected participants over a six-week period of daily journaling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, journal samples (comprising 30 entries per participant), reflective logs, and field notes. The data were analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña’s interactive model, involving data condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. Trustworthiness was ensured through prolonged engagement, triangulation, member checking, and persistent observation. The findings indicate that sustained journaling over time fostered writing fluency—evidenced by increased word count per entry, greater lexical variation, and reduced grammatical errors. Participants also reported enhanced confidence, improved sentence structure, and greater awareness of their writing habits. Nevertheless, challenges such as limited vocabulary, inconsistent motivation, lack of feedback, and time constraints were frequently noted. These results underscore the pedagogical value of journaling as a reflective, low-stakes writing practice in EFL contexts. The study offers practical insights for educators on integrating journaling into writing instruction and highlights the need for guided feedback mechanisms to optimize learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of the Falou English application in enhancing the speaking skills of seventh-semester English Department students. Using a qualitative approach through questionnaires and interviews, the research investigates how students’ experiences with the app influence their speaking fluency, confidence, and academic communication. The findings show that students perceive the app as a helpful and engaging tool, providing interactive features and real-time feedback that support consistent and confident speaking practice. Despite its benefits, students also encountered several challenges, including technical issues, limited content access, and cultural or linguistic mismatches. These obstacles, however, did not diminish their overall positive perception of the app’s impact on speaking development. The study concludes that the Falou English application holds strong potential as a complementary tool for speaking instruction in higher education, contributing meaningfully to learner engagement, motivation, and communicative competence

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the role-play method in enhancing English-speaking skills among secondary EFL learners. Speaking skill constitutes a fundamental component of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction, particularly at the secondary level where communicative competence is a primary learning objective. Nevertheless, many learners continue to experience difficulties in oral communication, including low self-confidence, limited vocabulary mastery, and insufficient opportunities for meaningful interaction, which are often associated with the predominance of conventional teacher-centered instructional practices, especially in religious-based educational settings. To address this issue, this study employed a quasi-experimental research design using a pretest–post-test control group approach. Participants were assigned to an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was instructed using the role-play method, while the control group received conventional teaching instruction. A speaking performance test was administered as both a pretest and a post-test, and students’ speaking abilities were evaluated based on fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehensibility. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent samples t-test. The results indicated that both groups demonstrated comparable speaking abilities prior to the intervention. However, following the implementation of the role-play method, the experimental group showed a significantly greater improvement in English-speaking skills compared to the control group, with a statistically significant difference at the 0.05 level. These findings suggest that the role-play method is an effective instructional strategy for enhancing speaking competence and offers pedagogical implications for communicative-oriented EFL instruction, particularly within Islamic boarding school contexts.

Abstract

This study explores English teachers’ perceptions of the process of creating assessment questions using Google Form and how this process is perceived to support effective digital learning assessment. Conducted in an Islamic senior high school in Indonesia, this qualitative research involved two English teachers selected for their experience in designing Google Form based assessments. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s (2014) interactive model consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that teachers followed a structured and reflective workflow consisting of four stages: planning, designing, implementing, and evaluating. In the planning stage, teachers aligned learning objectives, indicators, and assessment purposes before organizing questions in Google Form. During the designing stage, teachers utilized quiz mode, sectioning, automatic scoring, and feedback features to construct assessments that were practical, coherent, and supportive of students’ learning. In the implementation stage, Google Form enabled both classroom-based and online administration, allowing teachers to accommodate students with varying internet access while monitoring submissions in real time. In the evaluation stage, teachers benefited from Google Form’s analytics, including automatic scoring and visualized data summaries, which helped them identify common errors and plan follow-up instruction. Overall, teachers perceived Google Form as an effective digital assessment tool because it enhances efficiency, improves assessment organization, supports feedback provision, and facilitates data-driven instructional decisions. However, the study acknowledges limitations related to the small number of participants and the absence of classroom observations. These findings highlight the importance of integrating digital literacy training and further research to explore broader and more diverse assessment contexts.

Abstract

This study explores English teachers’ self-efficacy in teaching students with special needs within inclusive primary school classrooms through a phenomenological approach. Inclusive education requires teachers to respond to diverse learning needs; therefore, teachers’ beliefs in their instructional capabilities are critical to the successful implementation of inclusive practices. This qualitative study was conducted in an inclusive primary school in Medan, Indonesia, involving ten English teachers who taught both inclusive and regular classes. Data were collected through the Teacher Efficacy for Inclusive Practices (TEIP) questionnaire and semi-structured interviews with three selected participants. The questionnaire provided an overview of teachers’ perceived self-efficacy levels, while the interviews captured teachers’ lived experiences of self-efficacy in inclusive teaching contexts. The interview data were analysed thematically, guided by Bandura’s self-efficacy theory. The findings indicate that English teachers generally demonstrate a high level of self-efficacy, which is shaped by mastery experiences in inclusive classrooms, professional collaboration, participation in professional development, and teachers’ ability to regulate their emotional responses when facing instructional challenges. Teachers with higher self-efficacy showed greater confidence and flexibility in implementing adaptive instructional strategies and managing diverse student needs. This study contributes to the literature by providing an in-depth phenomenological understanding of how English teachers construct and experience self-efficacy in inclusive primary education contexts.

Abstract

Teaching English to young learners poses challenges for non-native EFL teachers, particularly in balancing curriculum demands with fostering an engaging, supportive classroom environment. This study aims to explore the beliefs and classroom practices of non-native EFL teachers in teaching English to young learners. A narrative inquiry approach was employed to investigate how teachers’ experiences and beliefs influence their instructional strategies. The study was conducted at an international primary school in Medan, Indonesia, involving three experienced non-native English teachers. Data were collected through narrative interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis of lesson plans and teaching materials. Findings indicate that teachers’ beliefs are shaped by their personal teaching experiences, caregiving roles, and ongoing interactions with young learners. They prioritize creating enjoyable, emotionally supportive, and student-centered learning environments, which is reflected in practices such as games, songs, storytelling, movement-based activities, and positive reinforcement. Despite challenges posed by curriculum requirements and full-day school schedules, teachers adapt their strategies while maintaining their core beliefs. The study highlights that teachers’ beliefs are dynamic and enacted through classroom experiences, providing insights into the meaningful connection between beliefs and practices in EFL teaching for young learners.
