Abstract

Mastering grammatical structures remains challenging for English as a Foreign Language learners in contexts with limited authentic language exposure. This quasi-experimental study examined whether mobile application integration could enhance Simple Present Tense acquisition among 34 seventh-grade students at a public junior high school in Majene, Indonesia. Participants were assigned to either an experimental group (n=17) receiving instruction through the English Grammar: Learn and Test application or a control group (n=17) following conventional textbook-based methods. Pre-test and post-test assessments measured grammar mastery across parts of speech, inflection, and syntax dimensions. Results revealed substantial improvement in the experimental group, with mean scores increasing from 20.94 to 72.12 (p < .001, Cohen's d = 1.95), while the control group showed modest gains (29.18 to 50.94). Notably, 82.4% of experimental participants achieved mastery level compared to 11.8% in the control group. Student perceptions measured through a 15-item questionnaire indicated strong acceptance (M = 4.31), with particularly high ratings for perceived usefulness. Despite sample size limitations, findings suggest that strategically integrated mobile applications can significantly enhance grammar learning when traditional methods prove insufficient, offering practical solutions for resource-constrained educational settings.

Abstract

Vocabulary acquisition remains a persistent challenge in EFL classrooms, particularly where students have minimal exposure to English outside school. Conventional instructional methods often fail to sustain motivation or produce meaningful vocabulary gains. This study examines the effectiveness of the Spelling Bee Game as a game-based vocabulary learning strategy among eighth-grade students at SMPN 4 Pamboang, West Sulawesi, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control group design was employed, involving 39 students divided into an experimental class (n=19) and a control class (n=20). The experimental group received vocabulary instruction through three Spelling Bee variations, while the control group followed conventional methods. Data were gathered through vocabulary tests and a Likert-scale questionnaire measuring learning interest. Results showed that the experimental group's mean score rose substantially from 46.6 to 79.5, compared to a modest gain from 47.25 to 66.5 in the control group. An independent sample t-test confirmed a statistically significant difference (Sig. = 0.000). The questionnaire yielded an overall average of 86.2%, classified as Excellent, indicating strong student interest in the approach. These findings suggest that Spelling Bee Game offers a viable and engaging alternative to conventional vocabulary instruction in low-exposure EFL settings.

Abstract

The objectives of the study are to assess the students' reading performance and explore their problems in comprehending English texts. To achieve these objectives, a descriptive research design was employed. The participants consisted of 76 English Department students from the Faculty of Teachers Training and Education at Universitas Sulawesi Barat, Majene, Indonesia. Two instruments were used in this study. First, a test was administered to measure students' reading performance. Second, a questionnaire in the form of a Google Form was employed to gather students' self-reported responses regarding their problems and difficulties in reading English texts. The findings revealed that the students' mean score on the reading performance test was 47.24, indicating a relatively low reading performance among the students. Moreover, the questionnaire responses indicated that most students reported encountering problems and difficulties in comprehending English reading texts. Consequently, it can be inferred that students' reading performance is adversely affected by these challenges. Based on the results, this study recommends the integration of learning media, technological tools, and effective reading strategies to address the identified problems and improve students' reading skills. These practical recommendations aim to provide educators and researchers with actionable strategies to improve the reading proficiency of EFL students.

Abstract

This study explores the perspectives of Universitas Muhammadiyah Enrekang (UNIMEN) students on cross-cultural adaptation during their international internship in Thailand. Community service programs, which are mandatory for Indonesian tertiary students, offer practical experiences that bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world application. This research focuses on the challenges and adaptation strategies employed by students participating in teaching practices at private Thai schools. Using a qualitative methodology and thematic analysis, data were collected through interviews with eight fifth-semester students majoring in English Language Education. The findings identify eight key challenges: administrative issues, health problems, psychological stress, social integration difficulties, teaching challenges, culture shock, language barriers, and inadequate facilities. Cultural barriers, such as differences in the education system and social norms, led to experiences of homesickness and stress. Language difficulties were particularly pronounced due to limited Thai and English proficiency among locals. To address these challenges, students adopted several strategies, including seeking social support, engaging in cultural learning, using sign language, and fostering communication with locals. These strategies helped alleviate culture shock, improve cross-cultural understanding, and enhance teaching effectiveness. The study underscores the importance of adequate preparation, including cultural learning modules, and provides valuable insights for universities to better support future participants in international community service programs.

Abstract

Self-regulated learning (SRL) remains underexplored in relation to specific learning management platforms across different SRL dimensions, particularly in post-pandemic Indonesian higher education. This study investigated how Google Classroom (GC) supported SRL among fifth-semester EFL students enrolled in a Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) course at Universitas Sulawesi Barat, Indonesia. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was employed, with quantitative data gathered from 47 students via a validated 12-item Likert-scale questionnaire, followed by semi-structured group interviews with 33 students across 11 purposively selected groups of three. Survey results indicated a high overall mean (M = 3.90, SD = 0.80, α = .933) across six SRL dimensions, with Planning and Time Management perceived as most strongly supported (M = 4.14) and Social Learning as least supported (M = 3.63). Thematic analysis yielded four themes: deadline notifications as a primary regulatory trigger, flexible material access enabling autonomous learning, unstable internet connectivity as a structural barrier, and limited collaborative affordances within the platform. The findings indicate that students perceived GC as particularly useful for planning, time management, and self-monitoring, although its support for social learning and co-regulation remained limited. These results carry practical implications for CALL pedagogy, platform design, and digital infrastructure investment in comparable higher education contexts.
