Abstract

Reading comprehension requires linguistic proficiency and the capacity to understand and interpret cultural elements embedded in the texts. However, many EFL students struggle with cross-cultural competence, affecting their comprehension of diverse reading materials. This study investigates the effectiveness of digital shared reading in enhancing both reading comprehension and cross-cultural competence among junior high school students in Indonesia. Employing a pre-experimental pre-test post-test design, the study involved 34 students in a structured digital shared reading intervention. Data were collected through reading comprehension tests and the Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQ) by Ang and Dyne. The results, analyzed using paired sample t-tests, indicated a statistically significant improvement in reading comprehension (t = -10.539, p = .000) and cross-cultural competence (t = -14.457, p = .000) after the intervention. These findings demonstrate the potential of digital shared reading as an effective pedagogical tool to foster cross-cultural awareness and enhance reading comprehension in EFL settings. This study contributes to educational research by showcasing how digital literacy and cultural exposure can be integrated into language learning.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the lack of students' writing skills in review texts, which is caused by the limited learning strategies that can facilitate critical and systematic thinking processes. The objective of this study  is to determine the improvement of students' review writing skills through mind-mapping techniques assisted by Xmind. This study uses the type of Classroom Action Research, which is carried out through actions consisting of 2 cycles, where each cycle has four stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Research data were obtained using data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, assessments, and documentation. The study showed that students' review writing skills with mind-mapping techniques assisted by Xmind had increased significantly. The average score of students' review writing skills increased in each cycle, with an average score of 70.45 for cycle I and 86.81 for cycle II. The cycle I review writing test results showed that 29 students (76.32%) achieved completeness and increased. Thus, the mind mapping technique assisted by Xmind is effectively used as a learning strategy to improve students' review writing skills. Integration of this technique into the writing learning curriculum in higher education is recommended, especially to solve the classic challenges in teaching writing.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the lexico-grammatical choices in an EFL learner’s argumentative essay using the transitivity system. It seeks to assess the quality of the learner’s writing to help improve their writing ability. The study also explores the experiential meaning constructed by the learner to persuade the reader through her argumentative text. In terms of methodology, this research employs document analysis to investigate the transitivity system. The data is from an argumentative essay written by an EFL learner at a state university in Cirebon. A qualitative approach is used, specifically textual analysis, a data analysis method that closely examines texts' content, meaning, structure, and discourse. The result shows that the material process takes over half of the portions of all process types. It indicates that the EFL Learner only serves a few arguments in the text. Thus, the argumentative essay text written by EFL learners has not fulfilled the standard quality of writing an argumentative essay. It is clearly shown from the result of finding process types, which should be mental and verbal processes as the highest portions in the text. This study contributes to the understanding of how transitivity analysis can reveal the strengths and weaknesses in EFL learners' argumentative writing, with implications for developing more targeted pedagogical strategies to enhance students' ability to construct effective arguments.

Abstract

In today’s globalized healthcare environment, English proficiency is essential for nursing professionals to access international resources, communicate across cultures, and deliver high-quality care. This study investigates nursing students’ perceptions of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) as a strategy to enhance English language skills within clinical and academic contexts. A descriptive quantitative study was conducted at the Nursing Department of Universitas Muhammadiyah Ahmad Dahlan Cirebon, involving 56 students enrolled in an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) course. Data were gathered through a Likert-scale questionnaire focusing on aspects such as motivation, inquiry, planning, and relevance to clinical practice. The findings indicate that students perceive PjBL as highly effective in connecting classroom English learning to real-world nursing tasks. Reported benefits include increased motivation, improved critical thinking, enhanced self-directed learning, and stronger professional communication. Students also expressed high engagement and satisfaction due to the authenticity and relevance of the tasks. The study concludes that integrating PjBL into ESP instruction for nursing students can significantly improve both language proficiency and clinical readiness. These results highlight the pedagogical value of PjBL in nursing education and suggest further research to examine its long-term effects on language retention and professional performance.

Abstract

Digital technology has significantly transformed the world of education. This includes English language learning, which still faces challenges due to student unmotivation and disengagement. The direct reading method has been proven effective in improving intensive and extensive reading skills, but if not combined with creative strategies, this method is often perceived as monotonous. Therefore, digital technology helps increase student motivation and engagement in reading and learning. This study employed a quasi-experimental method and a pretest-posttest control group design. Students selected through purposive sampling were 11th-grade students from a high school in Majalengka. Two classes served as samples. The experimental class, consisting of more than 35 students, used the digitally assisted direct reading method, while the control class used conventional methods. Research tools included reading comprehension tests, motivation questionnaires, observations, and semi-structured interviews. T-tests and effect sizes were used to analyze qualitative data; source triangulation was used for quantitative data. The results showed that the experimental group had significantly improved compared to the control group. The average reading comprehension score in the experimental group increased from 65.2 to 81.7, while in the control group, it increased from 64.8 to 72.4 (p = 0.001; d = 0.85). Student motivation in the experimental group increased from 3.21 to 4.12, while in the control group it only increased from 3.18 to 3.54. In the experimental group, student engagement in behavioral, emotional, and cognitive aspects increased significantly. Therefore, this study concludes that incorporating digital technology into the direct reading method is proven effective in improving student comprehension, increasing motivation, and engagement. Moreover, this is an appropriate approach to meet the learning needs of the modern generation.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is a fundamental component of English learning that underpins students’ ability to read, write, speak, and listen effectively. However, many Indonesian learners still rely on passive memorization and translation strategies, which are less effective for long-term vocabulary retention and communicative competence. This study investigates the application of the Direct Reading Method assisted by digital media as an innovative strategy to improve students’ English vocabulary mastery. The integration of digital resources, such as interactive e-books, vocabulary applications, and multimodal content, aims to create a more contextual, engaging, and effective learning environment that meets the needs of the digital generation. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. Participants were high school students selected purposively based on low initial vocabulary scores and access to digital devices. Data were collected using vocabulary tests, observation sheets, and motivation questionnaires. Quantitative data were analyzed through t-tests, while qualitative findings were drawn from observations and student responses. The findings demonstrate that the experimental group, taught using the Direct Reading Method with digital media, showed significantly greater improvement in vocabulary mastery than the control group taught with conventional methods. The experimental group’s average score increased by +23.4 compared to +11.3 in the control group, with statistical tests confirming significant differences (p < 0.01). Furthermore, students in the experimental group exhibited higher engagement (82%), stronger motivation, and a greater desire to continue using the method. In conclusion, combining Direct Reading with digital media not only enhances vocabulary mastery but also fosters active participation and learning motivation. This approach offers an effective, interactive, and technology-integrated model of vocabulary learning suitable for 21st-century education.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of oral and written feedback on writing apprehension among introvert and extrovert EFL students using a 2 x 2 factorial design. A total of 108 university students, 47 introverts and 61 extroverts identified using the Eysenck Personality Inventory, participated in the study. Writing apprehension was measured using a validated questionnaire after students received both oral and written feedback during writing instruction. Paired samples t-tests revealed that introvert students experienced significantly higher writing apprehension when receiving oral feedback (t = 6.82, p < .001), while extrovert students reported significantly higher apprehension with written feedback (t = 4.23, p < .001). Two-way ANOVA results revealed significant main effects of personality type (F = 10.321, p = .002) and feedback mode (F = 5.921, p = .027). Importantly, a significant interaction effect was also found between personality type and feedback mode (F = 10.567, p = .002), indicating that students’ responses to feedback varied depending on their personality. Specifically, introvert students reported greater writing apprehension with oral feedback, whereas extrovert students experienced more apprehension with written feedback. These findings underscore the importance of adapting feedback strategies to individual learner characteristics. Tailoring feedback to align with students’ personality traits can help reduce writing apprehension and enhance instructional effectiveness in EFL writing classrooms.
