Extensive Reading (ER) has received considerable attention in foreign language teaching and learning in Indonesia. However, research on student engagement and completion rates of ER assignments in higher education is limited. This qualitative case study investigates the factors that influence the completion of ER assignments among students in a counselling programme at a state university in Kalimantan. Using semi-structured interviews, the study explores students' perspectives and experiences to gain a comprehensive understanding of the challenges they face in completing extensive reading assignments. The findings reveal a complex interplay of factors that impede task completion, including lack of intrinsic motivation and interest in reading, vocabulary difficulties, and the learning environment. These findings highlight the critical role of English language teachers in creating a motivating and supportive learning environment, providing targeted vocabulary instruction and fostering a reading culture to maximise the benefits of ER for language acquisition and academic success in higher education.

The theory of Language Learning Strategy (LLS) has been alluded to in many past works. This study examines the writing strategies employed by five high-achieving Indonesian bilingual university students in their academic essays. Writing at the university level is widely recognized as a challenging and complex process; therefore, this research seeks to identify similar and distinctive strategy use patterns among these bilingual students. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews adapted from Oxford’s (1990) language learning inventory and categorized into three writing stages: pre-writing, writing, and revising. The responses were transcribed and analyzed using directed content analysis to provide an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon. The findings revealed shared strategies in the Cognitive, Memory, Affective, and Compensation categories. However, significant differences were observed in Metacognitive and Social strategies highlighting the influence of individual preferences and cultural factors on academic writing practices.

This study explores the theme of doomed love as depicted in Buya Hamka’s Tenggelamnya Kapal Van der Wijck (1938) and Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights (1847), examining the profound social barriers that doomed these relationships. It particularly focuses on the characters Zainuddin and Heathcliff, who are both rejected by their societies and lovers due to insurmountable social inequalities, a rejection that culminates in the tragic deaths of their beloveds. The aim of this paper is to dissect how intrinsic narrative elements and socio- cultural contexts collectively shape the central themes of love and societal rejection in these works. The approach used in this study is Genetic Structuralism by Lucien Goldmann (1980), a literary theory that combines structural analysis with socio-cultural context. This approach argues that a literary work should be understood as a product of both its internal structure and the socio-historical conditions in which it was created. The dialectical method is used to analyze and compare literary works by examining the interaction between intrinsic elements of the texts (structures) and their socio-historical contexts (worldviews). Applying this method to compare Tenggelamnya Kapal Van der Wijckand Wuthering Heights involves tracing the internal structures of each text, including characters, narrators, irony, and worldviews, and the external socio- historical realities shaping these structures, such as colonialism and traditionalism in Indonesia for Hamka, and industrialization and social stratification in England for Brontë. The findings show how in both works, love is portrayed as a complex and often obstructed idea, shaped by cultural and social barriers of their eras and worldviews of their authors. This idea simultaneously reflect their unique cultural contexts and engage with universal human questions about morality, love and society.

Metacognition has long touched upon critical issues related to educational psychology and gained advancing recognition in language learning. However, empirical research on its effect on academic writing remains limited. This study investigated metacognitive awareness among 167 Indonesian university students enrolled in an academic writing class, focusing on two self-assessment patterns: superficial (overestimating abilities) and hypercritical (underestimating abilities). Using an explanatory sequential mixed methods design, the researchers first compared students' actual writing exam scores with their self-assessments, which mirrored the lecturer’s grading rubric. Students were grouped into quartiles based on performance, and a Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was conducted to examine differences between their actual and perceived scores. Results revealed distinct patterns. Among lower-performing students (bottom quartile), only 11 out of 53 students (approximately 21%) exhibited superficial self-assessment. In contrast, among higher-performing students (top quartile), 61 out of 63 students (97%) demonstrated hypercritical self-assessment. These results suggest that while only a minority of low-performing students were superficial, the majority of high-performing students tended to be hypercritical about their writing abilities. Follow-up interviews with four selected students further explored the reasons behind these patterns. Qualitative analysis identified three main contributing factors: person and task variables, response to feedback, and self-regulation strategies. The findings underscore the importance of fostering metacognitive awareness and accurate self-assessment in foreign language writing instruction to promote effective learning and self-regulated development.

The hashtag "Kabur Aja Dulu" (Just Run Away First) trending in Indonesia reflects the growing interest of young people in becoming Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) abroad. In West Kalimantan, the Manpower Office (Disnaker), the Indonesian Migrant Workers Association (BP2MI), and the Job Training Institute (LPK) have provided training programs, including intensive language courses lasting at least six months as a prerequisite for employment. However, initial interviews revealed that many prospective workers withdrew due to difficulties in learning the language, which is closely related to their mindsets regarding language skills (language mindsets). This study aims to explore the fixed and growth language mindsets of PMI from West Kalimantan who have successfully completed training, passed language tests, and are now working abroad. The method used was a qualitative case study using semi-structured interviews with three PMI, supplemented by preliminary interviews with the Manpower Office and the LPK. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify patterns of beliefs and learning strategies. The results indicate that successful PMI tend to have a growth mindset, reflected in the belief that language difficulties can be overcome with practice, self-learning strategies, and social support. A fixed mindset still appears in the initial stages, but shifts toward a growth mindset through learning experiences and small successes. This finding underscores the importance of developing a growth language mindset in supporting successful language training and the adaptation of Indonesian migrant workers to international work environments.
