Abstract

Pronunciation is an often neglected but also an important aspect of teaching English to young learners, especially in contexts where English is a foreign language. Although textbooks serve as the primary source in Indonesian elementary schools, their support for pronunciation instruction has not been adequately researched. This study investigated the representation of pronunciation instruction in the English textbook My Next Words Grade 5 published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture. Using a mixed embedded design, qualitative content analysis was conducted on ten content units within the book, complemented by descriptive quantitative analysis and semi-structured interviews with two experienced elementary school English teachers who used the related textbook. The results revealed a predominant use of mechanical techniques—primarily repetition and choral modeling—that primarily focus on segmental features. Suprasegmental features such as stress and intonation were minimally represented. Classroom implementation was largely teacher-led, with limited use of pair or group work. Interviews with experienced elementary school teachers confirmed that while textbooks offer some basic pronunciation support, significant gaps remain in terms of scaffolding, instructional clarity, and the use of interactive strategies. This study concludes that pronunciation instruction in textbooks still needs further development and recommends improvements such as the need for a textbook design that cover both segmental and suprasegmental features, provides phonetic transcriptions for the targeted vocabulary, and equips it with ready-to-use multimodal resources such as direct links to audio/video resources for effective delivery, and more diverse communicative pronunciation activities.

Abstract

This study examines prospective English teacher students' perspectives on the use of Wordwall in vocabulary learning.  The selection of Wordwall was based on its ability to provide interactive and varied features that are effective in increasing student engagement. The focus on vocabulary learning reflects its vital role in developing overall language proficiency. The research participants were prospective teachers who were in the transition phase between learning and teaching practice, enabling them to share informed reflections on the use of digital media. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with final-year students who had experience using or observing the use of Wordwall during teaching practice. The results of the study indicate that Wordwall is perceived as an engaging, interactive, and easy-to-use learning platform that can increase student participation and encourage teacher creativity. The findings also show that Wordwall facilitates the design of more diverse and enjoyable learning activities while strengthening pedagogical skills relevant to the demands of 21st-century education. Wordwall also contributes to the professional development of prospective teachers by providing opportunities to explore digital media and reflect on their teaching practices. These findings contribute significantly to the development of teacher education curricula, particularly in the integration of digital media for effective vocabulary teaching.

Abstract

Building students’ literacy skills needs to be done as early as possible. Elementary school students are at the perfect age of getting much exposure to literacy. Therefore, teachers need to be able to do some activities in the classrooms that build literacy skills. However, not all teachers know and apply the teaching techniques proposed by the Ministry of Education and Culture in school literacy movement. This community service aimed to address the needs of elementary school teachers, members of Bawana Alit group, in Tembalang, Semarang, on literacy teaching techniques. The goal was to empower these members with practical skills in implementing literacy teaching techniques in their classroom, depending on their students’ literacy levels. This workshop involved some stages, including preparation and implementation. The participants now have more effective literacy teaching strategies to be applied in their classrooms.

Abstract

This study examines how English language teachers working in ELT institutions approach technology integration as part of their instructional practices and overall teacher experiences with digital tools. Using a qualitative research design, the researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with seven educators to explore the perceived benefits, constraints, and strategies related to technology use in English language teaching. The findings show that technology can strengthen student engagement, foster creativity, and support collaborative learning, although its effective implementation is limited by issues such as insufficient infrastructure, uneven digital literacy, and time constraints. The study highlights the importance of institutional support, particularly improved technological resources, targeted training, and ongoing professional development, to help teachers integrate technology with greater confidence and purpose.

Abstract

Vocabulary is a fundamental component in English language learning, yet many students still struggle to enrich their vocabulary due to limited contextual learning in formal instruction. With the rise of digital platforms, TikTok and movies have become popular sources of authentic language input, though their effectiveness has rarely been compared directly. This study investigates students’ perceptions of TikTok and movies in vocabulary acquisition. Employing a qualitative case study, data were collected from 25 eleventh-grade students at MAN 1 Kabupaten Semarang through questionnaires combining Likert-scale items and open-ended questions. Findings reveal that while TikTok offers short, engaging, and easily accessible content, its effectiveness is often hindered by distractions and lack of contextual depth. In contrast, movies provide richer vocabulary exposure, contextualized usage, and higher retention, leading students to perceive them as more effective for vocabulary learning. The study concludes that movies serve as a more reliable medium for enhancing vocabulary acquisition.

Abstract

This study focuses on whether or not EFL students' vocabulary mastery might be improved by using digital learning tools, specifically the Cake mobile application in conjunction with real-world movie clips. A quasi-experimental methodology was used, drawing on other studies that highlight the potential of mobile assisted language acquisition and audiovisual input for vocabulary development. 64 eleventh-grade students from SMA Teuku Umar Semarang participated in the study. They were split into two groups: an experimental group that received training via the Cake app and movie clips, and a control group that received instruction via traditional techniques. 50-item multiple-choice pre-tests and post-tests were used to gauge vocabulary proficiency. An independent-samples t-test was used after normality and homogeneity testing in the data analysis. The results showed that while both groups improved, there was no significant difference between the experimental and control groups (sig. = 0.217 > 0.05). These findings suggest that better vocabulary increases are not always the result of integrating digital media and movie clips. The results may have been impacted by elements including insufficient contextual scaffolding, limited repeated exposure, and variations in learner preparedness for mobile assisted learning. In terms of pedagogy, the study recommends that in order to optimize their efficacy, digital media should be integrated into thoughtfully crafted educational frameworks that offer clear direction, contextualized practice, and prolonged exposure to target vocabulary.

Abstract

Digital games are increasingly recognized as supplementary sources of language input in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts because they provide interactive and context-rich language use. However, previous studies have mainly focused on game mechanics or learner motivation, while linguistic features of in-game instructional texts remain underexplored. This study examines the types and functions of imperative constructions in Genshin Impact and their potential as linguistic input for incidental EFL vocabulary acquisition. A total of 93 English instructional texts were collected from the primary quest “The Forgotten Thief” during approximately 120 minutes of gameplay. Using a descriptive qualitative design with content analysis, the data included dialogue-based instructions, tutorial prompts, and quest objectives. The findings show that simple and inclusive imperatives are most frequent, followed by compound, negative, courteous, and idiomatic forms. These imperatives provide repeated exposure to functional language, suggesting their potential to support EFL learners’ vocabulary development and pragmatic awareness.

Abstract

This study investigates EFL students’ perceptions, motivation, and perceived learning effects of using Zep Quiz, a game-based learning application, in English classrooms. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data was collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed to 82 students and semi-structured interviews with 10 participants. Questionnaire data were analyzed descriptively using interval score interpretation to identify overall trends, while interview data were analyzed thematically to enrich and validate the questionnaire findings. The results indicate that students perceive Zep Quiz as an engaging and interactive learning tool that enhances classroom atmosphere, increases participation, and supports material review. The findings also reveal that Zep Quiz positively influences students’ motivation, focus, and enthusiasm for learning English. However, several challenges were identified, including technical issues, limited explanation of answers, and time pressure that may shift attention from understanding to speed. The main contribution of this study is to emphasize that the effectiveness of game-based learning tools depends not only on their features but also on their integration into instruction. The findings suggest that Zep Quiz is most effective when used as a supplementary learning tool accompanied by teacher guidance, explanation, and reflective discussion in EFL classrooms.
