Abstract

Studies on the appliances of mobile phones have indicated a positive effect on language improvement. This case study attempts to explicate students' perceptions of autonomous learning through Busuu (a language mobile application). The subjects of this study were 17 females and three males of an English language center at a university in Indonesia. The result showed that the use of the Busuu app supported learners’ autonomy. (1) Students controlled over learning management freely managing their time to study and got motivated more to learn English after accessing the app. The findings indicated that the lower the level of competence in English, the longer students spent their time to access the app. (2) Students controlled over cognitive processing by showing their interest in vocabulary practices. Next, students controlled over learning content by selecting which material to study first so that they were able to meet their expectations of accessing the app. At last, (3) students controlled over learning strategies by reflecting on how well they have learned from the automated feedback feature provided in the app. To sum up, students have a positive attitude towards the app in that it helps them enhance their English proficiency skills, especially in vocabulary enrichment.

Abstract

All around the world, colleges and universities have serious concerns about academic writing. All university and college students, especially those studying English as a second language (EFL), need to generate various textual forms for their academic education. Higher education students who do not communicate English as their native language encounter many linguistic, discursive, and cognitive difficulties when there is an educational requirement to publish academic writing in a reputable international journal. They suffer enormous barriers concerning their viewpoints as well. The purpose of this study is to investigate the particular writing experiences employed by graduate students in the English education program and assess how these practices influence their thesis and other scholarly publications. This research followed Barkhuizen et al.’s (2013) narrative inquiry paradigm. Through WhatsApp, the students engaged in several lengthy semi-structured interviews that were continued by such focus group discussions. We scrutinized and looked at their scholarly articles and theses in these dialogic interactions for two months, among other forms of English scholarly work. This research revealed that participants encountered conflict and tensions in their writing practices, particularly within specialties that require critical and suitable attention. Conjectured narratives of personal encounters in this research would be utilized as a guidance document to help evaluate students' English academic writing habits to meet their intended results. This has ramifications for how English research and educational writing is understood.

Abstract

This case study explores the perceptions of translanguaging in the academic writing process of pre-service teachers. Drawing upon the theories of forms translanguaging (Baynham & Lee, 2019; Garcia & Lin, 2016; Hua & Wei, 2022) and the stages of writing proposed by Hyland (2003), this research delves into how pre-service teachers perceive and utilize translanguaging in their writing. The study integrates observations, interviews, and artifact analysis involving pre-service teachers to understand their engagement with translanguaging as both a communicative and pedagogical strategy. The findings show that pre-service teachers not only view translanguaging as a method for effective communication but also as a crucial tool for enhancing their engagement with academic content, particularly in the stages of topic selection, pre-writing, writing, and feedback. In addition, the significant use of translation, code-mixing, and code-switching underscores their linguistic adaptability in a multilingual academic context. This research contributes to the academic discourse by providing insights into the role of translanguaging in the academic writing process and its implications for future teaching practices.

Abstract

Background – The rapid integration of digital technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) in education presents both opportunities and challenges, especially in improving English oral communication and promoting ethical digital behavior. AI-driven multimodal platforms that combine visual, auditory, reading/writing, and kinesthetic modes offer inclusive learning, but teachers must develop ethical, reflective, and collaborative competencies to ensure responsible AI use. Issues such as digital inequality, limited infrastructure, and insufficient professional development highlight the need for innovative frameworks aligned with Kurikulum Merdeka. Purpose – This study aims (1) to design and analyze a conceptual framework for an AI-driven multimodal learning platform that personalizes English oral communication, provides real-time feedback, and strengthens students’ digital citizenship; and (2) to identify essential teacher competencies and challenges related to AI integration to guide sustainable professional development. Method/Approach – A qualitative conceptual design was applied by synthesizing literature on multimodality, AI in education, teacher competence, and digital citizenship. This was supported by a systematic literature review (SLR) of 12 Scopus-indexed articles (2020–2025) using the keywords “Artificial Intelligence,” “teacher competence,” “AI in education,” and “TPACK.” Thematic analysis with iterative coding ensured analytical reliability. Findings – The proposed multimodal–AI framework shows strong potential to enhance oral communication through AI-enabled personalization, speech-recognition feedback, and interactive multimodal tasks. The review identifies three core teacher competency domains: AI literacy and ethical awareness, data-driven digital pedagogical design, and collaborative reflective practice. Major challenges include limited infrastructure, unequal digital access, ethical concerns, and inadequate AI-focused training. Conclusion – Adopting AI–TPACK, design thinking, and growth-mindset principles can guide effective professional development in multimodal–AI learning environments. Novelty/Originality/Value – The study’s originality lies in integrating language proficiency and ethical digital citizenship within a unified multimodal–AI framework, offering theoretical contributions and practical direction for future educational innovation.

Abstract

Learning is not only done in the classroom but also outside the classroom through game media. This study focuses on the effect of vocabulary knowledge from massively multiplayer online role-playing games on students' willingness to communicate. The subjects of this research are three EFL learners who play MMORPG games. This study uses a biographical narrative inquiry method and collects data through semi-structured interviews and artefacts. EFL learners were assigned to share their experiences playing MMORPGs related to vocabulary knowledge and the desire to communicate. The data is analysed using thematic analysis. The findings highlight the positive impact of vocabulary knowledge on participants' self-confidence and pronunciation skills. A solid grasp of game-related vocabulary increases participants' self-confidence, making them more comfortable engaging in conversations and less afraid of making mistakes. It also improves pronunciation skills, as participants better understand word pronunciation through in-game interactions. Through collaboration among teachers, institutions, and parents, using MMORPGs as a learning tool is expected to provide maximum benefits for students in improving their English communication skills.

Abstract

Abstract: In the last ten years, studies of the representation of moral values in English textbooks have been growing. However, little empirical evidence reveals the use of speech acts to represent moral values through utterances. This study aims to investigate the representation of moral values depicted through utterances in English textbooks for elementary school grades 2 and 5 in Indonesia. By adopting a socio-cognitive critical discourse analysis (Van Dijk, 2015) framework integrated with Searle’s (1969) speech acts, this qualitative study elucidates the representation of moral values only in the verbal text. The data were analyzed by applying several steps, including unitizing, sampling, recording/coding, reducing, inferring, and narrating. The findings of this study showed that curiosity, honesty, and friendliness are the most dominant moral values depicted in two English textbooks for elementary schools in Indonesia.  Dialogue/conversation, chapter cover, and instruction for students’ activity are the strategies to promote moral values in the textbooks. This study implies that teachers and textbook writers should provide students with more examples of moral values, particularly those related to daily life communication.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of the "Guru Penggerak" program (PGP), a key component of Indonesia's "Merdeka Belajar" educational initiative, on the professional development of in-service English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers. Focusing on three EFL teachers who participated in PGP, the research examines the development of self-esteem and task perception during the training. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, narrative frames, and examination of relevant artefacts. Results indicate that PGP effectively aids teachers in understanding and implementing the Merdeka curriculum, enhancing their self-esteem and task perception. Specifically, the study identifies two indicators of improved self-esteem: enhanced understanding of curriculum implementation and engagement in professional learning communities. Similarly, two indicators of enhanced task perception were noted: improved job performance and effective utilization of training modules in teaching. Additionally, the study highlights challenges faced by participants, including shifts in teaching beliefs, increased workload, and perceptions of their role in the program. These insights suggest avenues for refining in-service teacher training programs to better support EFL teachers' professional growth.

Abstract

Effective teaching relies heavily on solid communication and meaningful interaction between teachers and students. These elements create an environment where students are more engaged and motivated, leading to better learning outcomes. One way to enhance this interaction is through Creative Problem-Solving (CPS), which incorporates creativity into the teaching process. CPS encourages students to think imaginatively, collaborate, and apply knowledge dynamically, fostering a more engaging and interactive classroom environment. This study aims to investigate how Creative Problem-Solving (CPS) facilitates teacher-student interaction patterns by applying the Initiation-Response-Feedback (IRF) theory in an EFL classroom at a state university in Indonesia. The study involved 46 pre-service teachers, six males and 40 females, all fifth-semester undergraduate students enrolled in the Curriculum and Material Development course. Data collection methods included deep interviews and classroom observations. The research revealed that pre-service teachers faced challenges with CPS projects, especially those involving telecollaboration. However, they valued the lecturer's guidance and feedback, which played a crucial role in helping them overcome these difficulties and complete the tasks. Thus, to maximize the benefits of CPS, lecturers must provide a clear understanding of CPS principles, as it is a relatively new approach for many pre-service teachers. Additionally, encouraging pre-service teachers to seek guidance and actively engage in collaborative activities can enhance their critical thinking and overall learning experience.

Abstract

The digital shift in education requires readiness among school members to manage the challenges of organizational change. This study investigates the technological readiness of junior high schools in Indonesia from teachers' perspective, using Weiner's (2009) theory of organizational readiness for change, and examines students' readiness for digital learning. Participants included teachers and students from four junior high schools in Boyolali, Central Java, selected through convenience sampling with a 95% confidence level (0.05). Descriptive statistical analysis indicated a positive readiness for digital transformation (mean = 3.74). The study found that only the Valence of Change factor had a statistically significant correlation with schools' readiness for digital shift. Furthermore, respondents showed a positive attitude toward digital learning, with no significant gender differences in students' perceptions and use of digital tools. These findings offer valuable insights for educators, researchers, and school administrators in driving digital transformation in education. The study recommends integrating digital learning into the curriculum to boost student engagement and interest.

Abstract

Junior high school students learning English as a foreign language (EFL) in countries where English is neither the first nor the second language face significant challenges in acquiring vocabulary due to the infrequent use of English outside the classroom and monotonous teaching techniques. However, in the digital era, innovative educational tools like Digital Flashcard-based gamification offer an interactive and engaging solution. This study aims to understand junior high school EFL students' perceptions of learning English vocabulary through gamification using Digital Flashcards. The research was conducted as Classroom Action Research (CAR) and involved 32 junior high school students in Madiun District, Indonesia, learning English as a foreign language (EFL). Over eight meetings, these students engaged in learning animal-related vocabulary using Digital Flashcard-based gamification. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test and interviews to gather students' perceptions of the learning experience. The results indicate that students' vocabulary mastery significantly improved after using gamification-based Digital Flashcards, with an average increase of 15 points. The pre-test average score was 60, which increased to 75 in the post-test. The gamification elements (story, mechanics, aesthetics, and technology) enhanced students' exposure, attention, and enthusiasm during learning. Vocabulary mastery was effectively facilitated through diverse gamified activities. This study demonstrates that incorporating Digital Flashcards in a gamified format is an effective tool for improving vocabulary learning among EFL students.
