Abstract

The differential impacts of high stakes testing (HST) on curriculum, pedagogy, students learning, teacher professional development, and equity have been known in the literature, but its cancellation impact is not yet known. Situated in the post cancellation policy in Indonesian education system, this study seeks to explore the impacts of such policy change on schools, teacher pedagogical practices, and students’ English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning. A multiple case study design was employed in three different high schools involving 3 school leaders, 3 English teachers, and 9 students in semi-structured and group interviews. Their voices were thematically analysed and constantly compared across cases. The results demonstrate shifts on: (i) the individual student’s and school’s reorientation towards their own vision and mission, (ii) curriculum driven and more varied EFL instructional practices, and (iii) more self-regulated learning activities among certain teachers and students. Further and wider scale investigation is required to look deeper on how these shifts occur among larger groups of stakeholders.

Abstract

This research study explores first-year university students’ perspectives on integrating multicultural-based reading activities into their EFL reading courses during their second semester. The researcher used a qualitative methodology to collect detailed data, including semi-structured interviews as the primary data, as well as focus group discussions, field notes, and classroom artifacts, from 40 undergraduate students majoring in the English Language Education Department at a public university in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The data gained were analyzed and interpreted qualitatively by using thematic analysis, particularly the interview and field notes taken during the implementation of the activity, to reveal several key findings. Two major different themes were finally concluded: cultural awareness, and critical thinking skills. It was found that students became more involved, understood better, and respected other cultures. Besides, they elaborated on their critical thinking skills by interpreting and evaluating the texts. The results of the study posit further research to investigate how the activities may affect students’ language skills in communicating with people from different cultures in the long term.
