Abstract

Integration of technology has penetrated into various fields, including education. With its constant development, technology is always evolving, offering a wide range of applications and sophistication. Accessible to everyone, including teachers, technology raises the question of its acceptance in learning. The goal of this study was to investigate the acceptance of technology in English learning, specifically focusing on the use of Schoology as a platform. Furthermore, it aimed to identify the challenges encountered when integrating it into English learning. The study involved twenty teachers who used Schoology as a supporting medium in the learning process and was conducted through polls and questionnaires. Through this study, the authors aimed to enhance English learning by exploring how technology, specifically Schoology, could be integrated into it. The results provided valuable insights into the acceptance of Schoology among teachers and the challenges faced when integrating it into English learning.

Abstract

This study investigates the acoustic differences in student-produced voice during speed reading with and without a teleprompter in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. The research aims to examine how teleprompter-assisted reading affects fluency, prosody, and pronunciation. A quasi-experimental quantitative design was conducted with 30 senior high school students who were members of the English Club at SMA Al Azhar 3 Bandar Lampung. Each participant performed three reading tasks: without a teleprompter, with a teleprompter at 1% speed, and with a teleprompter at 50% speed. Recordings were analyzed using Praat software to measure pitch, intensity, duration, and pronunciation errors. The findings showed no significant differences in pitch and intensity (p .05). However, reading duration was significantly longer at 1% speed (p .05), indicating more deliberate articulation. Descriptive results also revealed fewer pronunciation errors at 1% speed than at 50% speed. These findings suggest that adjusting teleprompter speed can optimize speech clarity, making teleprompters a valuable tool for improving EFL learners’ fluency and accuracy in public speaking training.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to explore the use of short stories as a teaching and learning medium in an intensive reading class for eleventh-grade students at SMA Al Azhar 3, Bandar Lampung. The background of this study is the need for engaging reading materials that can improve students’ comprehension, analytical skills, and motivation in intensive reading activities. Methodology - The study employed a qualitative research design. The sample consisted of eleventh-grade students from SMA Al Azhar 3 in Bandar Lampung, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through classroom observations and questionnaires. The research procedure involved implementing short stories as instructional media in intensive reading lessons. The instruments used were observation sheets and student questionnaires, and the data were analyzed descriptively to identify patterns in students’ engagement, comprehension, and responses. Findings – The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ ability to engage with and comprehend intensive reading activities through the use of short stories. Students showed better understanding of storylines, enhanced analytical skills, and increased participation during lessons. However, the study did not measure the long-term effectiveness of short stories as a teaching tool. Novelty – This research offers original insights into the use of short stories as an instructional medium for intensive reading at the senior high school level, highlighting students’ cognitive and affective responses in a real classroom context. Significance – The findings of this study are beneficial for English teachers, curriculum developers, and educational practitioners who seek effective and engaging strategies for teaching intensive reading.
