Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate academic supervision program at PAUD Tunas Kasih, Magelang, using Context, Input, Process, Product (CIPP) evaluation model. The results of the study were expected to provide inputs to decision-makers for subsequent programs. The respondents of this descriptive-qualitative research included the school principal, six teachers, and a school managerial staff. Data collection was done through interviews, observation and document studies. Triangulation of data sources and methods validated the data, subsequently analysed through data condensation, data display, conclusion drawing and verification. Findings indicated the context evaluation revealed a need for academic supervision based on the condition and the need for teacher’s quality improvement. The input evaluation described the well-planned program—using different techniques, involving the teachers in their readiness, supported by available budget and infrastructure. The process evaluation reported the implementation of the planned techniques, with some adjustments based on the on-going condition, supported by the teachers’ readiness as well as participation and how they handle the constraints. The product evaluation found out that the academic supervision program had positive impacts and achieved the planned goals. It also discovered teachers’ positive responses and some follow-up plans. Lastly, this study gave recommendations to improve the local supervision programs, inputs to the school management, and ideas for future researches.

Abstract

Although technology use is inevitable among language learners, using Machine Translation (MT), such as Google Translate (GT), remains controversial in language learning. Despite its advances, it may be detrimental to L2 learning when used excessively, especially for those with more limited linguistic resources. This research investigates first-year EFL students' autonomous utilization of GT in writing assignments, explores their awareness of GT’s advantages and disadvantages, and assesses their perceived relative reliance on the technology. As many as 85 Indonesian EFL first-year students participated in this study by completing questionnaires consisting of closed-ended and open-ended questions. Even though most students recognized GT’s potential negative impact on language learning, this study reveals how various factors have contributed to its notably significant usage among them. While most participants reported using GT only occasionally and mainly at the word level, their use for translating longer texts was significantly higher than in previous research involving students at different English competence levels. Additionally, boosting confidence, convenience, and serving as language scaffolding were identified as GT’s main benefits, leading to students’ reliance on technology. Most expressed potential difficulty working without GT. Recommendations were made to support less-proficient students, given the growing prevalence of MT in language education.

Abstract

Teachers’ beliefs are interesting to discuss. They are closely related to teachers’ professional growth and development. Teachers’ perspectives also affect the way teachers teach, deliver materials, and strive to make their students understand what they are conveying. This study examines five Indonesian EFL teachers’ views about teaching English. This study was guided by one central question: What are the main beliefs of five Indonesian EFL lecturers about teaching? Data was derived from five English teachers teaching at different educational levels and collected through personal interviews with the five teachers. The data collection was done in May 2023. The findings revealed that of the five English teachers, each had uniquely different viewpoints about teaching, teachers’ roles, students’ understanding, and materials. This study hopefully can provide some new insights for current and prospective English teachers about teachers’ perspectives, and thus add to the literature on this matter.

Abstract

Text-based teaching (TBT) has characterized and been emphasized in our national curriculum at elementary and secondary levels. As a consequence, English teaching is based on the TBT principles. Along with the vast development of technology, the implementation of TBT is also integrated with the use of digital technology that is to increase the quality of teaching and learning and to increase students’ technology literacy. This paper reports a workshop on digital TBT in the implementation of “Kurikulum Merdeka.” The objective is to find out teachers’ implementation of digital TBT for teaching English using “Kurikulum Merdeka.” The participants were 26 English teachers under Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP) Bahasa Inggris (an English Teachers Forum), Salatiga, Central Java. The methods used in this program were reflective practice and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The findings revealed that most teachers used all the steps of the TBT cycle. All teachers applied Modelling of Text (MOT), but only a few applied Joint Construction of Text (JCOT). The findings on the use of technology for the TBT cycle demonstrated that the teachers used digital technology more in Building Knowledge of the Fields (BKOF) and Independent Construction of Text (ICOT).

Abstract

This paper mainly aims to explore issues and challenges in using technology to support teaching and learning in various schools located on three different islands in Indonesia, such as in Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara, and Papua islands. The exploration was done through a holistic literature review of 30 national and local newspapers and online articles relevant to the aim of the study. We performed a peer-debriefing activity to present our review analysis to each other, comment on it, and made necessary revisions to our analysis to ensure the credibility of our review. While the results communicated various things, we could highlight some commonalities: unequal distribution of technology support or facilities in schools, creative ways to support teaching and learning practices regardless of the very minimum facilities that schools have, and continuous support from the Indonesian government and private sectors to improve school technology-supported facilities. We then discussed those commonalities in light of the relevant literature and their implications for teaching and learning to benefit school teachers or educational practitioners planning to teach in schools outside Java with minimal technological-related school facilities.
