Abstract

This research was aimed at analyzing the type of English skills needed by the students of Islamic Banking (Perbankan Syariah) in IAIN Metro and figuring out the materials relevant to their needs. This was a qualitative study involving 25 students and 20 alumni who were working or had ever worked in the banks or BMTs. The data were obtained by employing interviews, questionnaires, documentation, and then analyzed by using Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that most of the students have less skill in English. However, the language skill that is needed at most by the students is speaking skill as the communicative skill and vocabulary as the language skill. It is also discovered that there are some problems, such as limited references, lack of supporting facilities, and learning duration that are encountered by both lecturers and the students. Then, referring to their needs, the materials do not yet accommodate the content focus in which the students can learn English related to banking issues. This research recommends that the syllabus should be revised and English should be taught in an integrative approach.

Abstract

Unexpected shift to emergency remote teaching (ERT) engendered a complex situation for all schools around the globe, in particular those with inadequate prior experience of this distant online learning mode. Whilst the bulk of research has dealt with ERT practices in various school contexts, this issue in Indonesian pesantren – a type of Islamic boarding school which provides full-time comprehensive religious educational activities but have considerably lack of practice in distance online learning – remains underexplored. This qualitative study addressed this gap by unpacking English language teachers’ voices and experiences in ERT in pesantren school contexts. The study was conducted during school closure in 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its data were generated through open ended questionnaires and analyzed using six-phase thematic analysis. The findings show that the teachers indicated positive attitude toward ERT. Despite several challenges, they expressed opportunities that might potentially contribute to the better enactment of ERT in pesantren learning process. Pedagogical implications and recommendations for further research are discussed. Keywords: Emergency Remote Teaching, ELT, Pesantren School

Abstract. In the dynamic landscape of language education, understanding the perspectives of educators within unique cultural and educational contexts becomes imperative for fostering effective learning environments. This qualitative study explores the perceptions and challenges faced by English language teachers in pesantren schools in Indonesia, where cultural, religious, and linguistic dimensions intricately influence language education. Through in-depth interviews, the research uncovers the complexities teachers navigate in balancing cultural preservation with the imperative of equipping students with English language skills. Findings highlight how English language teachers navigated the integration of ELT practices with students’ context and needs, primarily aiming to convey the importance of learning English, aligning it with Islamic teachings and dispelling misconceptions about its compatibility with religious principles. The study underscores the necessity for tailored pedagogical strategies and contributes insights to the discourse on language education in culturally rich settings.Keywords: English language teaching, teachers’ experiences, Indonesian pesantren

Abstract

Instagram has become an essential tool for language learners outside of the classroom, in addition to creating new avenues for social networking. Some researchers have investigated the use of Instagram for self-directed learning, but research and knowledge on the extent to which Instagram can promote learner autonomy among preservice teachers of English as a foreign language (EFL) remain under-explored. The purpose of this study is to investigate how EFL pre-service teacher use Instagram to support student autonomy in their English language learning, particularly in light of the growing trend of digitalization in education. Fifteen EFL PSTs from an Islamic university in the province of Lampung, Indonesia were involved as participants of this qualitative study. The findings show that the participants viewed Instagram as useful alternative platform for learning English. They employed various creative strategies to utilize Instagram’s features, including enhancing vocabulary, grammar comprehension, and speaking skills. However, they also encountered challenges, such as distractions from non-educational content and connection issues. Despite certain limits of this platform, they also viewed learning English on Instagram as a pleasant experience. The study concludes that Instagram, when used wisely, can be a good platform to promote autonomous learning in ELT, especially in the context of growing educational digitalization.

Ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif yang dilakukan di Sekolah Menengah Pertama Kristen (SMPK) Seputih Banyak, Lampung Tengah. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam dan dokumentasi. Kemudian, model Miles & Huberman digunakan untuk menganalisis data.
