Abstract

Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi kinerja mengajar calon guru bahasa Inggris melalui pendekatan analisis naratif. Tujuannya adalah untuk memahami bagaimana para guru ini membangun identitas dan praktik mengajar mereka di dalam kelas. Analisis naratif digunakan untuk memeriksa cerita dan pengalaman pribadi yang dibagikan oleh calon guru mengenai perjalanan mengajarnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan wawancara semi-struktural dan jurnal reflektif sebagai alat pengumpulan data dari calon guru bahasa Inggris. Naratif dianalisis secara tematik untuk mengidentifikasi tema-tema umum yang berkaitan dengan praktik mengajar, tantangan yang dihadapi, dan strategi yang digunakan guru untuk meningkatkan efektivitas mengajarnya. Temuan penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa calon guru sering mengalami fase ketidakpastian dan pertumbuhan saat bertransisi dari mahasiswa menjadi seorang pendidik. Naratif menyoroti pengaruh pengalaman pribadi, pelatihan pedagogis, bimbingan, dan dinamika kelas terhadap praktik mengajar mereka. Selain itu, penelitian ini menekankan pentingnya praktik reflektif dalam meningkatkan kinerja mengajar dan pengembangan profesional di kalangan calon guru.

Parents play a crucial role in guiding, educating, and nurturing their children from an early age. Their involvement is essential for understanding the child's conditions and developing the child's interests during the growth process. Early learning occurs primarily within the family environment, followed by the school environment. The process of introducing literacy to children can begin at an early age. Literacy education for children encompasses reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Introducing literacy to children requires consistent practices implemented by parents, including effective time spent accompanying children in exploring picture storybooks. Picture storybooks can engage children by introducing them to the characters, appealing colors, and the text within the stories. Familiarizing children with literacy from an early age can optimize the development of their language skills.

Abstract

Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) improves writing proficiency through flexible, interactive, and feedback-oriented educational experiences. Mobile devices provide real-time modifications, multimedia integration, and collaborative activities such as blogging and peer review, allowing students to enhance their writing skills beyond conventional classroom limitations. Writing, a critical skill in language acquisition, requires not only mastery of vocabulary and syntax but also the ability to structure ideas and communicate effectively. However, traditional classroom instruction often lacks the immediate feedback and interactivity that modern learners need. MALL addresses these challenges by offering real-time feedback, interactive exercises, and multimedia resources that enhance the writing process. Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) promotes vocabulary enhancement and cultural understanding via real digital information. Despite obstacles like technical limitations and application choices, its capacity to promote learner-centred environments is considerable. This study investigates the role of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) in enhancing writing skills, focussing on its advantages and obstacles, and analysing techniques to optimise its effectiveness. The findings from this research can guide optimal strategies for integrating mobile technology into language education, thereby enhancing student engagement and writing proficiency.

Abstract

There are differing opinions in the field of cognitive sciences when it comes to the role of sex in language acquisition. Men and women exhibit differences in their speaking and writing ability as a result of their distinct social roles throughout evolution. These disparities are equally, if not more, evident in students, both during normal and abnormal growth. In addition to the well-documented advantage that girls have in early language development, it is noteworthy that the majority of developmental problems that predominantly impact communication, speech, and language skills are more prevalent in boys. This article seeks to elucidate the disparities between sex regarding ordinary communication and language development, as well as the disparities in the occurrence of neurodevelopmental disorders connected to communication. Additionally, particular attention is given to data derived from the field of neuroscience, which may offer valuable insights into the neurological mechanisms that contribute to the comprehension of this event. We contend that the structural arrangement of the female brain confers women with an innate edge in developing communication and language systems compared to men. Divergent perspectives are present on the differentiation between sex within the field of cognitive sciences. The talks are founded upon clinical, social, and political perspectives. The evolutionary and biological perspectives have often emphasized arguments related to 'nature', whereas feminist and constructivist viewpoints have often emphasized arguments related to 'nurture' when discussing cognitive sex differences. This narrative review provides a comprehensive analysis of the origins and historical evolution of these arguments, as well as a summary of the findings in the field of sexually polymorphic cognition. By adopting multidisciplinary techniques, we aim to highlight the importance of interconnecting disciplines and gaining a more comprehensive knowledge of the precise factors that contribute to sex differences and gender diversity in cognitive capacities.

Abstract

Traditional methods such as rote memorization and one-way instruction lead to low interest and limited interaction. The community service program introduced the cooperative jigsaw method, where students worked in small groups, took responsibility for vocabulary learning, and taught peers collaboratively. This program aimed to enhance student motivation and engagement in English vocabulary learning through the jigsaw technique at a primary school in Pranti Village, Sedati, Sidoarjo. Using observation checklists, questionnaires, and classroom documentation, the study found that students were attentive, participative, focused, and confident, showing initiative and effective interaction with peers and media. Questionnaire results confirmed increased motivation, enjoyment of responsibility, reduced stress, and higher confidence when learning collaboratively. Key supporting factors included engaging media, peer collaboration, student autonomy, and the teacher’s role as facilitator, aligning with Self-Determination Theory. In conclusion, the jigsaw technique effectively improved both motivation and engagement in vocabulary learning, offering a dynamic, student-centered approach that fosters meaningful and enjoyable language learning for young learners.

Abstract

Purpose – This research aims to prove whether students’ writing creativity can be increased by implementing the plot of the Black Adam movie based on Propp’s morphology structure as scaffolding in making a narrative story. This study was conducted because students feel the necessity and lack self-motivation to create their own story. Methods – This research was quantitative with an experimental design. The data collected from the pre-test and post-test results were then analyzed by quantitative analysis through SPSS 25. The sample for this research was 25 students of English education in the first Semester, at the University of Nahdlatul Ulama Surabaya. There were two kinds of instruments for this data, such as tests (pre-test and post-test) and questionnaires. The questionnaire was collected by diagram through a Google form.Findings – The result of this study showed students’ writing creativity increased by using the Vladimir Propp structure in making fairy tale stories, with p = 0.00 > 0.05. This suggests that the implementation of the Black Adam movie’s plot in creative writing based on Propp’s Morphology of Fairytale improved students’ writing ability in making narratives and helped students learn more easily. Research Implications – This research is limited by a small sample, a short duration, and a single-group design. Generalizing findings is challenging, and future research should consider larger and more diverse samples, extended study durations, and diverse pedagogical approaches for a comprehensive understanding of effective creative writing instruction.

Abstract

This community service initiative took place at Pondok An Nahdloh, an Islamic boarding institution in Selangor, Malaysia, particularly serving the educational requirements of children of Indonesian migrant workers. Despite the integration of religious and general language training, students encounter difficulties in acquiring derivational and inflectional morphemes due to linguistic interference, inconsistent pedagogical approaches, and restricted access to resources. To address these issues, the project applied a multilingual and contextualized teaching approach that incorporated contrastive analysis, translanguaging strategies, and the use of familiar cultural and religious contexts. Materials suitable for various age groups were created, comprising interactive games, organized exercises, and digital resources like flashcards, quizzes, and augmented reality experiences. Furthermore, capacity-building workshops were conducted for educators and community people to guarantee sustainability. The project results indicated higher student skill in morpheme application, heightened motivation for language acquisition, and improved teacher effectiveness in providing consistent instruction. This approach cultivated a sustainable language learning environment, enhanced community engagement, and advanced the overall empowerment of the pesantren.
