This research method is qualitative study, which is able to explore the perspectives of participants regarding their understanding and experience in managing classrooms to create conducive learning. The participants in this study were two teachers who taught in the urban and in rural area. After negotiating with the headmaster, the participants were recruited under a purposive sampling approach and gave their consent to participate in this study. In this study, data were collected through one-to-one interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. Employing Garwood and Harris (2020) five parameters, two themes were resulted in each parameter. The participants were the teachers recognizing students' names and paying attention to their attitudes and intelligence. They also tried to have a good appearance, performance, and attitude as well as to make games. Regarding a consequence of breaking rules, the teacher in urban area applied academic punishments such as memorizing vocabularies; while, the one in rural area preferred to provide social punishments such as taking out the trash from classrooms. Furthermore, the teachers did not involve students in managing class rules, but made them individually or privately. Finally, both teachers informed class procedures in their teachings. The findings of this study implied that classroom management should be understood as well as practiced properly and appropriately as one of attempts the teacher could make to maintain and create a conducive learning atmosphere.

Abstract

Empirical studies on teacher-student relationships (TSR) in both EFL and non-EFL contexts have been extensively explored. However, limited attention has been given to the role of human behavioral dimensions within classroom TSR practices. This study examines the specific human behavioral dimensions an Indonesian EFL teacher utilizes to foster TSR in her classroom. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews using a qualitative research approach. The findings reveal that agency-related behaviors are less aligned with the teacher's interactions with students, whereas communion-related behaviors are more reflective of her classroom practices. These results suggest that Indonesian EFL teachers cultivate community in the classroom, emphasizing strong, positive relationships with their students.

Abstract

This study examines the language-related challenges faced by Indonesian students enrolled in short-term English Medium Instruction (EMI) courses abroad, facilitated by the Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards (IISMA). Using a mixed-methods approach, we analyzed survey responses from fifty-four students and conducted three focus group interviews to gain a comprehensive understanding of their experiences. The research instrument, based on Evans and Morrison (2011) and modified by Kamasak et al. (2021), was employed to quantify these challenges. Our analysis revealed significant challenges in writing and speaking. These difficulties were prevalent regardless of the students backgrounds, suggesting that current preparatory measures may be insufficient. Specifically, writing emerged as the most formidable challenge, with many students struggling to express their ideas clearly and coherently in English. These findings underscore the critical need for comprehensive preparatory frameworks that go beyond basic linguistic competence. We advocate for the integration of robust academic preparation programs within mobility initiatives to better equip students for the linguistic demands of EMI courses. Such enhancements are essential for improving the overall academic experience and success of students in international educational contexts. The implications of this study extend to policymakers and educators involved in designing and implementing EMI programs, emphasizing the importance of targeted support to address language-related challenges.

Abstract

This paper investigates English pre-service teachers' perceptions of a project-based learning (PjBL) class exhibition as the output of a Multiculturalism in Language Learning (MLL) course. Employing a qualitative approach, this study analysed student reflections written specifically those related to the PjBL class exhibition. The data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis. The findings are categorized into three main themes: Valuable Experiences and Educational Benefits, Skill Development, and Engagement, Innovation, and Improvement. A limitation of this study is its reliance solely on student written reflections, without supplementary data from interviews. Therefore, for future research, it is recommended that interview sessions be incorporated to further elaborate on students' narratives. The findings of this study implies that reflection is an essential and integral component of the learning assessment process through project-based learning. Accordingly, the implementation of effective reflection mechanisms should be a key focus for teachers.

Abstract

Background: This research explores the experiences of Indonesian doctoral students in English-speaking universities through a collaborative auto-ethnographic approach. Utilising Schartner and Young's (2016) stress and coping strategies and culture-learning frameworks, we analyse narrative data to investigate our academic and sociocultural journeys in the US, UK, and Australia.   Methodology: To attain a profound comprehension, we participate in personal and group introspection, analysis, and interpretation, utilising imaginative thought, creativity, emotional self-exploration, and ongoing dialogues. The study identifies four major psychological adaptation themes (social support, survival, spirituality, and compliance), a critical socio-cultural adaptation theme (feeling like cultural aliens), and a vital academic adaptation theme (questioning our academic capability amid struggles with critical reading and writing).   Findings: The findings reveal three themes: Psychological Aspects: “Social Support, Survival, Spirituality, and Compliance”, Sociocultural Aspect: “We Are Cultural Aliens”, Academic Aspect: “Questioning Our Academic Capacity as We Struggled to Read and Write Critically”.   Conclusion: The findings underscore the significance of awareness and emphasise the necessity for effective adaptation among international doctoral students. This research contributes valuable insights into the challenges faced by Indonesian doctoral students in Anglophone academic settings, shedding light on the importance of support systems, cultural understanding, and academic confidence stop where for a successful academic journey.   Originality: While previous studies have largely examined the difficulties faced during adaptation, the way these challenges ultimately lead to successful outcomes remains under-explored. This research seeks to address this deficiency by investigating how Indonesian international research students in Anglophone universities convert cultural, psychological, and academic obstacles into successful adaptation.
