Data analysis was carried out using quantitative descriptive techniques. The results of this study indicate that the M-Write application reached appropriate criteria in terms of content, language use, and design aspects. The percentages of each of these aspects are 71.9%, 73.3%, and 71.9%. While the results of the applications usage assessment by students also showed that the application was appropriate to be used with an average percentage of 75.9%.

Abstract

Considering the results of researchers’ observation at some Teaching English as A Foreign Language (TEFL) classes, which noted that there were at least two problems, namely the lack of materials to accommodate the students’ need of learning and unavailability of TEFL media to support the learning process, the development of materials for TEFL class are urgently needed. Besides, the high demand for technology integration into language learning to face digital environment motivates education practitioners to develop materials with technology application. WebQuests can be one of meeting points for this intersection. A WebQuests is an online media which allows students to collect and construct information about a subject using a web. By using WebQuests, the students will have an opportunity to actively contribute constructing their own knowledge during the teaching and learning process. Therefore, this study aims at giving rational and theoretical background in developing a web-based material with a constructivist approach, named constructivist-WebQuests.Keywords:material development, constructivist-WebQuests, online materials, TEFL

Abstract

Scientific literacy is one of the important literacies that children need to have. However, there are many findings that show the low level of scientific literacy in Indonesian children. "Panggon Moco" is one of the reading park communities (TBM) which was formed due to the community’s concern for the success of the literacy program. Until now, the literacy developed by this community is still limited to reading literacy. Therefore, it is necessary to develop other literacy such as scientific literacy. To answer this challenge, it is necessary to carry out a scientific literacy activities for children in the Panggon Moco community. A learning approach that has been proven to improve scientific literacy in children is STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics). The method of implementing this program includes several activities, namely (1) discussion and equalization of perceptions; (2) making Fun STEAM Lab books; (3) the STEAM experiment; and (4) STEAM literacy assistance. This activity is carried out offline and online. The results obtained from this program are increasing children's understanding of STEAM and increasing students' interest and motivation in learning.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has forced everyone to be skillful in using the technology willy-nilly. Consequently, training the students to take data digitally and then proceed them into any mode of reports became a necessary matter. This study will examine how students transform online chat data into articles, especially in terms of their writing qualities and their difficulties when generating and organizing ideas. Generating and organizing ideas play the primary role in the initial phase of the writing process, but a limited study is available in the literature that addresses this case. This descriptive study invited 66 students to answer the research questions by analyzing the questionnaires and evaluating their writings. The findings indicated that most students faced problems when generating and organizing ideas and that their articles' quality was still poor. Data analysis showed that the problems ranged from not fluent in writing in English, lack of practice to generate and organize the ideas, and not skilled at writing articles. Most of them did free writing and just write with the flow without thinking of the article's generic structure. Half of them were also unsure whether they used one of the suggested ways to generate and organize ideas. Some pedagogical implications were discussed, including stimulating the students' metacognitive skills during the process of writing and giving more explicit exercises to generate and organize ideas with frequent constructive feedback from the teachers.
