Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study aims at investigating: (1) levels of autonomous learning from three groups of students with different periods of study, (2) EFL students’ beliefs towards learner autonomy and their lecturers’ roles in promoting learner autonomy. The participants of this study were three groups of EFL students at English Department in their second, fourth, and sixth semesters. The data were obtained through questionnaire surveying Autonomous Learning Scale to find out the students’ levels of autonomy and interview to figure out their beliefs about learner autonomy and the roles of lecturers to promote autonomous learning. This study revealed that all group of students were classified as being in the mediate level of autonomy. From the interviews conducted to nine participants representing each group, it was found that to become autonomous, learners need to develop the ability to evaluate their own learning. Moreover, out-of-class activities were believed to enhance learner autonomy since the activities will provide students with self-responsibility to manage the tasks. Last, in terms of the lecturers’ roles in the classroom, most participants perceived that the lecturers still had a dominant role in controlling teaching and learning, particularly in the classroom context. This dominant role eventually led students to become less autonomous circumstances, both inside and outside classrooms.ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui: (1) tingkat pembelajaran mandiri dari tiga kelompok mahasiswa Bahasa Inggris dengan periode studi yang berbeda, dan (2) keyakinan mahasiswa Bahasa Inggris terhadap pembelajaran mandiri dan peran para dosen pengajar dalam mendukung pembelajaran mandiri di kelas. Para partisipan penelitian ini adalah tiga kelompok mahasiswa yang belajar di Jurusan Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris di semester kedua, keempat, dan keenam. Data diperoleh melalui angket survei Autonomous Learning Scale untuk mengetahui tingkat pembelajaran mandiri mahasiswa dan melalui wawancara untuk mengetahui pandangan mereka tentang pembelajaran mandiri dan peran dosen pengajar untuk mempromosikan pembelajaran mandiri. Hasil yang didapat dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa semua kelompok siswa dari tiga periode studi yang berbeda diklasifikasikan dalam pembelajaran mandiri tingkat menengah. Dari wawancara yang dilakukan kepada sembilan peserta yang mewakili setiap kelompok, diketahui bahwa untuk menjadi mandiri, mahasiswa perlu mengembangkan kemampuan untuk mengevaluasi pembelajaran mereka sendiri. Selain itu, kegiatan di luar kelas diyakini dapat meningkatkan pembelajaran mandiri karena kegiatan tersebut akan mengembangkan tanggung jawab dalam mengelola tugas. Begitu pun dalam hal peran dosen di ruang kelas, sebagian besar mahasiswa merasa bahwa dosen masih memiliki peran dominan dalam mengendalikan proses belajar mengajar, terutama di dalam kelas. Peran dominan dosen ini pada akhirnya menyebabkan mahasiswa menjadi kurang mandiri baik di dalam maupun di luar kelas.How to Cite: Hermagustiana, I., Anggriyani, D. (2019).

Abstract

One of the practical applications of technology integration in the educational field is a web-based test. Since students need to be involved in the classroom assessment decision, knowing their perceptions toward the use of evaluation media is deemed important. Thus, this study was aimed to identify the students’ perceptions on the use of web-based tests in an English class and to examine the problems experienced by students when using them in the classrooms. One hundred fourteen high school students participated in this study. This study utilized a survey which consisted of both open and close ended questions. A google form-based questionnaire was used to collect the data from the selected participants. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistical analysis. The result of this study indicated that the students had positive perceptions of the use of web-based tests. However, they experienced some problems during the implementation of the web-based tests. The problems include the mobile device breakdown, lack of security, unfamiliarity, internet connection issue, server failure, browser incompatibility, mobile device unavailability, mobile device incompatibility, and time limitation. The study also found that the most frequent problem experienced by students was the server failure problem. Some pedagogical implications of this study were discussed.

Abstract

This study aimed to describe the problems faced by university students in English speaking classes across different proficiency levels at one of the universities in East Kalimantan and their strategies to overcome the problems. This research used a quantitative survey method. The data was collected using a questionnaire divided into two sections, speaking problems and strategies, shared using Google Forms. 85 of 100 students answered the questionnaire. The findings revealed that the most prevalent problems were affective-related (68.7%) and linguistic-related (62.0%). Specifically, 83.5% of students reported fear of making mistakes, 82.4% struggled with overuse of their mother tongue, and 75.3% faced insufficient grammar knowledge. Beginner students exhibited the highest frequency of issues, with 100% acknowledging fear of mistakes, while intermediate and advanced students also reported significant affective and linguistic challenges, albeit at slightly lower rates (e.g., 86% and 74% for fear of mistakes, respectively). Coping strategies varied by proficiency level: beginners relied heavily on passive methods like watching movies (75%), while intermediate students incorporated more interactive strategies, such as peer practice (37.9%). Advanced learners demonstrated balanced strategies, including regular speaking practice (52.2%) and peer interaction (60.9%). The study results underline the need for tailored pedagogical interventions to support students’ emotional readiness and language competence, emphasizing the importance of strategic practice environments and personalized feedback.
