Abstract

Promoting ICC has been discussed widely in the EFL context as one of the goals of foreign language learning. The present study explores implementing online problem-based learning (PBL) in an EFL classroom to promote critical intercultural awareness (CIA) in a teacher education context. The participants were 40 pre-service teachers who enrolled in Intercultural communication subjects for the semester. Drawing upon the PBL approach in teaching intercultural communication, the study deployed action research (AR) where participants engaged in the four phases: planning, acting, observing, and evaluating. Data were gathered through a series of guided observations and a written interview. The findings showed that the learners' capacity to be aware of cultural differences can be promoted by incorporating problem-based learning. In this sense, the learners develop their critical thinking regarding encountering a wide range of cultural diversity to promote CIA. In addition, PBL successfully enables pre-service teachers to be critically aware of intercultural issues and make meaningful reflections on their own culture and other people's cultures. This study contributes to teacher education by preparing EFL teachers to develop one of the aspects of Intercultural Competence.

Abstract

Despite a number of previous studies investigating online learning during the COVID-19 outbreak, more needs to be reported about TEYL teachers’ insightful experiences in photovoice. To fill this gap, the current phenomenological case study aimed at exploring TEYL teachers’ experiences in enacting MALL during the distance learning period amidst the COVID-19 pandemic using photovoice. Two teachers were recruited as the study participants. The data were garnered from the participants’ photovoice collections depicting critical incidents and interviews. The results showed that MALL was perceived as a powerful instructional method in distance English learning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The teachers reported that they encountered several obstacles caused by unstable internet networks, difficulty in direct supervision of young learners, and the requirement of extra effort to prepare interesting teaching materials. On a positive note, MALL has benefited the teachers by enriching their experiences using various mobile applications for their English language instructions. The enactment of MALL has also foregrounded parents’ important roles in monitoring their children’s use of mobile devices. Drawing from the findings, this research implies that photovoice can be used to explore teachers' and students’ life experiences with distance learning in Indonesian teacher education.
