As a result of the utilization of technological advances to achieve competency integration, the 4.0 technology era is gaining traction in the field of education. This study aims to explore the efficacy of using the Edmodo application as an online-based learning medium in order to improve the way in which EFL students learn English using technology. By a mixed-methods research design, this study recruited twenty-two tenth graders in the Mathematics and Natural Science stream from an integrated Islamic senior high school in Aceh province, Indonesia. The data indicate that the majority of students possess the necessary devices to assist them in completing their tasks, and a significant proportion of them use these devices to play games and conduct research. By categorizing aspects and components, Edmodo improves students' vocabulary when used to assess their learning progress through assignments and quizzes. In addition, the students are more willing to request assistance from teachers and peers when using the application. Despite the fact that Edmodo requires a smartphone and a reliable internet connection to utilize it, the participants do not report having any significant issues with the two requirements, however, half of them report having trouble attaching assignments from different types of files such as Doc, Pdf, Video, and Audio. Overall, Edmodo is an outstanding and highly effective online resource for reading, writing, listening, and speaking English classes (e-learning).

Error analysis is widely used in EFL teaching and learning to identify the types and causes of errors made by EFL learners and to determine whether those errors are systematic or random. By examining these errors, teachers can develop effective solutions to reduce, eliminate or improve them. The purpose of this study was to investigate the grammatical errors made by senior high school students when composing recount texts. The study used a descriptive quantitative approach by analysing a corpus of 30 essays written by 15 students. Utilizing Dulay, Burt, Krashen's (1982) framework of surface structure taxonomy for data analysis, the results reveal that students committed errors in four categories: disinformation, misordering, omission, and addition (ordered accordingly from the most to the least produced one). This study implies that recognizing students' writing errors may assist teachers in determining the focus of their instruction in order to enhance student’s learning to a better condition.

This present research investigated the English learning interest and motivation of EFL Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (Islamic elementary school) students. The study employs a quantita-tive descriptive methodology, where by data is gathered through means of observation, documentation, and questionnaires. Participants included 30 English as a Foreign Lan-guage (EFL) learners who were enrolled at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (Islamic primary school) located in Medan, Indonesia. The questionnaire comprises a set of inquiries that have been modified to assess the overall interest of students towards speaking, reading, listening, and writing, along with inquiries pertaining to their intrinsic and extrinsic moti-vation. The results of questionnaires and observation notes indicate that the level of inter-est and motivation exhibited by EFL students towards learning the English language is notably high. Based on the distribution of scores, it can be inferred that students exhibit the highest level of interest in English listening skills, followed by reading, speaking, and lastly, writing. The primary determinant of intrinsic motivation among students is their personal inclination towards acquiring proficiency in the English language. The primary factor contributing to students' extrinsic motivation is the teacher, including her instruc-tional methods, use of media, and recognition of outstanding academic performance. Of the two components, extrinsic motivation outweighs intrinsic motivation in terms of per-centage score. The findings of this study suggest that teachers have a significant role in sustaining and/or enhancing students' interest and motivation in learning English.

A plethora of studies have investigated the effects of peer evaluation (PE) and automated writing evaluation (AWE) on the writing products and perspectives of English as a foreign language (EFL) students. However, few studies compare students' preferences regarding its utilization to evaluate their essays. This study aimed to determine which method EFL college students prefer for evaluating the quality of their English academic writing. For data collection, a questionnaire was distributed to determine the frequency with which students utilize feedback. Twenty students enrolled in English Education completed the questionnaire. The open-ended interview was then administered to three students in order to gain a deeper understanding of their perspectives on these two modes of evaluation. Frequency count and thematic analysis were utilized to analyze the data. The results indicate that students favor using peer feedback over Grammarly, the AWE software used in this study, for two reasons. First, they view their peers as their real audience, and second, they value their peers' comments more than Grammarly's. However, Grammarly also received positive point as the students enjoys writing with this tool. Therefore, it is believed that the combination of these two s will result in the most essay writing progress.

Mobile game-based learning presents a potential avenue for vocabulary acquisition in English language learning, yet research on students’ perceptions of specific platforms is limited. This study focuses on investigating Grade 9 students’ perceptions of using Alef Education, an AI-based digital platform, for English vocabulary learning in North Sumatra, Indonesia. The purpose is to explore how gamification and multimodal approaches affect learning motivation and vocabulary retention. Using a descriptive qualitative method with a phenomenological perspective, data were collected through participatory observation and semi-structured interviews with ten students aged 14–15. Findings reveal that gamified features significantly enhance motivation, and the multimodal approach combining text, audio, and visuals improves vocabulary retention and application. However, technical issues and limited teacher interaction hinder effectiveness. This study highlights the importance of addressing both motivational and practical barriers in digital platforms. These insights inform strategies to optimize game-based learning for vocabulary acquisition in EFL contexts.

The role of grammar instruction is inevitably important for second and/or foreign language mastery. Unfortunately, in practice, many English teachers in foreign language contexts such as in Indonesia still teach grammar deductively; that is, learners are provided the grammar rules and examples, are told to memorize them, and then are asked to apply the rules to other examples. This particular method of teaching is believed to produce learners who cannot use the language communicatively although they have considerable knowledge of grammar rules. It has also been seen as contributing to learners’ passive participation and negative feelings towards grammar learning. The aims of this paper are to give an alternative solution to that problem by offering some ideas of game-based activities and to investigate students’ perception of the implementation of communicative game-based grammar learning. Using pre- and post-study questionnaire, the research study was conducted with 30 adult EFL learners taking an after-class English course. The findings indicated that these activities were effective in creating a non-threatening and more relaxing grammar classes, changing students’ negative perception of grammar learning and improving their perceived communicative skills.
