Abstract

There has been a change in the process of learning from a conventional way into the technologically-based way these days. From this change, it is necessary to find out the significance of utilizing technology in learning English from students’ perspectives. This study aims to investigate the EFL students’ experiences of using vlogs, as one of the technology products to learn English. In conducting this research, the researchers adopted exploratory study as the approach and employed the hermeneutic phenomenology as the research design. These designs have relations to description and interpretation of the meaning of EFL students’ experience. One student participated in this study. The researchers employed the student’s reflection as part of the assignment after making vlogs as well as a one-on-one in-depth interview to obtain the data. At this point, two research questions are underlying this study, namely: (1) How are the students’ experiences in learning English using vlogs?; (2) What does the student learn from it? From the data analysis, the researchers found several findings in this study. For the first research question, there are three findings found, namely, losing words to say, conveying English language expression, expressing his identity, looking for additional information in English. For the second research question, there are four findings revealed. Those were detailed guideline making, better editing, confidence gaining, and vocabulary improvement.

Abstract

Started with teachers as the center of learning back then, becoming students as the main key of learning, and this has led to an independent learning environment. Technology has been taking an important role of this change happening in the society, with no exception in the language education as well. Moreover, it is the fact that in English language, students are required to master four skills, namely speaking, listening, reading, and writing. There have been many ways of teaching those four skills to students, but unfortunately often those strategies do not meet students’ needs. Technology development, therefore, comes to provide new solutions to these issues that both teachers and students could grab the benefits of it. Thereupon in this paper, the authors try to provide insights as comprehensive as possible regarding with technology development, which is webpage, which can be used by teachers to assist the English teaching, especially in the sense of teaching reading and listening skills to students.
