Abstract

Albeit the covid-19 pandemic impacts on education have been extensively discussed, little empirical evidence addresses students’ experience of autonomy. The present study investigates and obtains information about the experience that the students encountered during online English learning, their perception about it, and how their experience shapes their autonomous learning potentiality. The study was conducted in a quantitative approach adopting survey design and correlation procedure. Data was collected through an online form questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using both descriptive and inferential statistic to look for trends and correlation between the variables. The result of the study indicated that the students participating in the study seemed to have a quite good online English learning experience. They received various learning instructions and were engaged in different types of language learning activity. The majority of students perceived online English learning as fairly enjoyable, yet many of them displayed considerable potential to act as autonomous learners. Furthermore, the correlational analysis indicated a positive correlation (r=.312; sig=.008) demonstrating that students’ potentiality to learn autonomously to some extent, was influenced by their experience of online English learning. This study implies that both teachers and students gradually become more accustomed to online and autonomous learning.

Abstract

The view of literacy as a social practice has changed the view of researchers to study not only the activities in formal setting but also beyond the school walls (Hull and Schultz, 2002; Street, 2003). This paper aims to shed light how foreign literacy practices in out-of-school context, particularly in tourist areas, may potentially contribute to the students’ literacy ability in the formal context. This ethnographic research was conducted over a two-week period which situated in tourist destination areas, namely Gapang, in the municipality of Sabang, Indonesia. The input data comes mainly from participant observation, audio recordings, interviews and field notes to examine the linkages between outside literacy and school attainment. The findings suggest that there was a linkage between the literacy practices outside and inside school for participant.  Eventually, this study will be a beneficial input for teachers, parents and researchers, in the future study, to take into account the learning experiences available in both settings and integrate them into fruitful literacy learning at school.

Abstract

Living in a tourist area is frequently viewed as an advantage for students learning English as it provides more opportunities to practice the language. The present study looked at the English performance of students residing in tourist and non-tourist areas and explored how they learned English and the factors affecting their language performance. A comparative study was conducted using a concurrent mixed-method approach. The data were collected through documents, tests, and interviews and analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively to examine differences and determine the main themes between the respective groups. The result of the study indicates that the two groups differed statistically in terms of English school grades and speaking test scores with large effect sizes (d = 3.26 and d = 1.28), respectively. Even though the proficiency test did not show a significant difference (p = .72), the non-tourist group outperformed the tourist group in all assessment types. The interviews revealed that regardless of the different attributes and sites where students lived, the two groups were similar in how they learned English. The main factors affecting the English language performance of both groups were (1) strong motivation, (2) exposure to English through songs, games, movies, and  social media, and (3) family support.
