Abstract

The present study aims to explore Indonesian EFL teachers’ perception regarding the ICT (Information and Communications Technology) usage for developing cultural awareness of students as well as improving their English literacy and communication. Even though English subject is not considered as compulsory to be taught in elementary school, there is evidence that English is still being taught either as the local content subject or as the language-medium of instruction. This study employs survey research by administering a questionnaire for elementary school English teachers in Indonesia who have been ever implementing online learning. The result shows that most teachers respond positively on the implementation of ICT in English instructional practice in elementary school. Regarding the cultural content, the participants agree that ICT can be helpful for them to provide interactive digital teaching material, including cultural material for the students. The existence of ICT is helpful for both students and teachers to provide real and authentic teaching materials. Therefore, the use of ICT needs to be promoted to provide cultural awareness in ELT practice to equip young learners to do intercultural communication in the global world

Abstract

This study investigated the impact of the List/Group/Label (LGL) method on vocabulary learning in eleventh-grade students at SMK Negeri 8 Bandar Lampung. The primary aim was to determine if a significant difference in academic performance existed between the experimental and control groups. The research population consisted of all eleventh-grade students in their second semester at SMK Negeri 8 Bandar Lampung, totaling 338 students spread across 10 classes. Two classes were selected as samples: XI MLPB 1 acted as the experimental group (36 students), while XI MPLB 2 served as the control group (35 students). This study employed a quantitative approach within a quasi-experimental design. Data gathering was carried out through vocabulary evaluations (pre-test and post-test). The results indicated a marked improvement in vocabulary learning for students in the experimental group taught using the LGL method in contrast to the control group. This suggests that the List/Group/Label method serves as an efficient strategy for enhancing students' vocabulary learning

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the levels of foreign language anxiety experienced by high school students and to identify the sources of anxiety in ICT-based English learning context. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method involving eleventh-grade students of SMAN 7 Bandar Lampung. Data were collected through the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. Thirty students participated in the questionnaire, while five students were selected for in-depth interviews to explore their perceptions and experiences. The data were analyzed descriptively to reveal patterns of anxiety and its contributing factors. The findings indicate that most students experience moderate to high levels of foreign language anxiety in ICT-based learning environments. A significant number of students fall into the “anxious” and “very anxious” categories, suggesting that ICT integration does not entirely reduce anxiety. Interview results reveal that while some students feel motivated and enthusiastic about ICT-based learning, many struggle with lack of self-confidence, fear of making mistakes, technical difficulties, unfamiliarity with digital platforms, and the pressure of fast-paced online lessons. These factors collectively intensify students’ anxiety during foreign language learning. In conclusion, the study highlights that although ICT provides valuable support for English learning, it also introduces new sources of anxiety. Therefore, teachers need to implement supportive strategies, provide clear guidance, and create a less threatening digital learning environment to help students manage foreign language anxiety effectively.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of code-switching as a bilingual communication strategy in the Bicara Cinta podcast, focusing on Maudy Ayunda’s Indonesian–English language use. Positioned within applied linguistics and digital discourse studies, the research aims to identify the types of code-switching employed and to understand their communicative relevance in a public media context. Using a qualitative design with a content analysis approach, naturally occurring utterances from the podcast were examined. The analysis reveals 73 instances of code-switching, consisting of 16 inter-sentential switches, 42 intra-sentential switches, and 15 tag switches. The predominance of intra-sentential switching reflects a high level of bilingual proficiency and flexible linguistic negotiation. These findings provide insights into bilingual practices in Indonesian digital media and offer pedagogical implications for English education, particularly in promoting sociolinguistic awareness and authentic exposure to bilingual discourse.

Abstract

Since the Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is potentially reshaping academic writing and publication, this study aims to investigate how Indonesian history education lecturers adopt GenAI across the workflow of writing to publication. It also aims to identifies the perceived benefits, risks, and supports needed for responsible use. To obtain these purposes, a qualitative study involved 50 lecturers from Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Bali was conducted. Data were gathered through questionnaires, semi structured interviews, and focus group discussions. Thematic analysis, supported by triangulation across instruments, was used to identify patterns of use and challenge. The most frequently used tools were ChatGPT, Grammarly, Google Translate, Gemini, QuillBot, and Turnitin. Adoption was driven by simplicity and efficiency. Indonesian history lecturers reported using GenAI for (a) idea generation and research design, (b) literature synthesis, (c) data analysis, (d) content editing and proofreading, and (e) preparation for publication and dissemination. Four recurring challenges tempered these benefits: safeguarding academic integrity, uneven digital literacy, over reliance on automated outputs, and concerns about data validity and accuracy. Overall, participants framed GenAI as a productivity aid rather than a replacement for scholarly judgment. In conclusion, these outcomes contribute to the wider discussion on technology in higher education by providing educators and policymakers with information about how to maintain a balance between academic rigor and innovation.

Abstract

This study investigates Indonesian EFL teachers' perceptions of cultural awareness in GenAI-assisted English language teaching and explores the opportunities and challenges they perceive when addressing cultural awareness through AI-generated instructional materials. A quantitative survey design was employed involving 60 Indonesian junior high school EFL teachers who had prior experience using Generative AI applications for instructional purposes. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations. The findings indicate that teachers hold highly positive perceptions toward the importance of integrating cultural awareness into AI-assisted English language teaching. Participants emphasized that AI-generated cultural content should be critically evaluated before classroom implementation and that English instruction should integrate both Indonesian and global cultural perspectives. Teachers also perceived Generative AI as a valuable resource for creating culturally diverse instructional materials and enriching classroom learning. However, concerns were raised regarding cultural bias, inaccurate cultural information, limited representation of Indonesian local cultures, and students' overreliance on AI-generated content. The study concludes that the effective integration of GenAI into English language teaching depends not only on technological capability but also on teachers' intercultural competence, critical AI literacy, and pedagogical judgment.

Abstract

With reference to the Triadic Componential Framework, there are three aspects of designing pedagogical tasks to take into consideration, i.e., cognitive factors (task complexity), interactive factors (task condition), and learner factors (task difficulty). So far, numerous task-based studies have been concerned with investigation of the effect of tasks sequenced on the basis of cognitive factors. This is due to the fact that cognitive factors can be easily predicted from the beginning. Few studies have explored learner factors regarding levels of difficulty, stress, self-confidence, interest, and motivation contributing to language performance when learners work on the tasks manipulated along with the cognitive factors. The current study aimed to explore i) the Indonesian EFL learners’ perceptions of the three types of tasks developed on the basis of cognitive factors, and ii) the factors contributing to learners’ factors when performing the tasks. The subjects of the current study were 30 students of the English Department, the University of Lampung, Indonesia. Three types of tasks and questionnairs were used as the instruments to collect the data of learners’ affective factors. The findings of the current study showed that learner factors do not necessarily correspond to the manipulation of task complexity. This suggests that factors other than cognitive factors are necessarily taken into account of designing pedagogical tasks from the beginning as they contribute to learners’ performance of working on tasks.
