Abstract

This study explores the impact of Teacher Professional Development (TPD) on the implementation of Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) in English language teaching at SMPN 2 Monano. Despite the availability of training, many teachers face challenges in integrating technology due to infrastructural barriers, insufficient hands-on practice, and lack of continuous support. Using a qualitative design, the research employed interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis to investigate how TPD affects teachers’ confidence, competence, and pedagogical practices. The findings reveal that professional development encourages a shift from traditional methods to more interactive strategies aligned with the TPACK framework, leading to greater student engagement, comprehension, and confidence. However, limitations such as unequal access to devices, unstable internet connectivity, and misuse of technology persist, particularly in rural contexts. The study concludes that continuous, contextualized, and practice-based professional development is crucial to bridge the gap between training and real classroom practices, thereby promoting sustainable integration of digital tools in English language education.

Abstract

This study explores students’ subjective perspectives on the use of social media platforms (e.g., TikTok, Instagram, YouTube) in developing their 21st-century 4C skills (Critical Thinking, Communication, Creativity, Collaboration) within an English Language Learning (ELL) context. Using descriptive qualitative methods with semi-structured interviews, this study synthesizes wide-ranging perceptions on the use of platforms and how they facilitate students in improving 4C skills in English learning. The results were further analyzed thematically. Key findings indicate that, although students recognized that social media is an accessible and engaging tool for English learning, its use for developing 4C skills is not without significant challenges. Students posited that social media effectively facilitates the practice of communication skills (writing and speaking), stimulates creativity, and supports online collaboration skills. However, they also suggested that the development of critical thinking is hampered by the difficulties in evaluating the credibility of information online. The practical implications of this study highlight the need for lecturers to design structured pedagogical support and for policymakers to integrate digital literacy into the curriculum. Without strategic guidance, the potential of social media to enhance 4C skills is at risk of being underutilized.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Duolingo application in improving students' pronunciation skills, with a specific focus on voiced and voiceless consonants. A quantitative study design employing a pre-experimental approach was utilized, incorporating pre-tests and post-tests to measure differences in students' scores. The study involved 32 eighth-grade students from SMP Negeri 12 Gorontalo. The students participated in four pronunciation training sessions using the Duolingo application, supplemented with in-class guidance. The collected data were analyzed using a paired t-test to determine the significance of differences between pre-test and post-test scores. The results indicate that the null hypothesis (H₀) was rejected, signifying a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores. These findings suggest that the Duolingo application significantly enhances students’ pronunciation skills, particularly in mastering voiced and voiceless consonants. Consequently, Duolingo proves to be an effective learning tool for improving students’ pronunciation proficiency.

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to investigate the implementation of English language teaching strategies for developing listening skills in students learning English as a foreign language (EFL). A qualitative descriptive method was used in the study. In order to answer the research question, the researchers collected data from open-ended interview statements from three teachers at SMA Negeri I Paleleh. The researchers analysed the data through the process of data collection, data reduction, data display and conclusion. The findings of this research indicate that the implementation of bottom-up and top-down strategies could improve students' knowledge and listening skills. The use of bottom-up and top-down strategies helped students to improve their listening skills because learners found the strategies enjoyable and were able to share their perspectives based on their prior knowledge of the topic. In addition, teachers were able to provide students with detailed knowledge about the learning topic.

Abstract

Perception is a complex cognitive process involving the recognition, organization and interpretation of sensory information in order to understand and respond to the environment, which is influenced by each individual's personal experience and background. In the context of language learning, students' perception of learning media plays an important role in determining the effectiveness of the learning process. The purpose of this study is to describe EFL students' perceptions of the use of audio-visual media in listening learning. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive method. Data were collected through an open questionnaire distributed to 13 fourth semester students of the English Education Study Program at Gorontalo State University who had taken the Listening for Professional Context and Academic Purpose course. The results showed that the majority of students had a positive perception of audio-visual media. They consider this media effective in improving understanding of listening material. Helps recognize English accents and intonations, and creates a more interesting and less boring learning atmosphere. However, some challenges were also found, such as the duration of the video that was too long, the technical quality of the media that was less than optimal, and the tendency to rely too much on visual aspects. Overall, audio-visual media is a very potential learning tool if applied strategically and proportionally in listening classes. These findings are expected to contribute to the development of listening teaching strategies that are more effective and in accordance with the needs of EFL students.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to find out whether Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy develop students’ writing skill in narrative text. To achieve the objectives, this research employed a quantitative experimental method using one group pre-test and post-test design. The population of this research was the ninth grade students of SMPN 1 Bulango Timur, consisting of 29 students. Data were collected through writing tests on narrative texts before and after treatment. The results show that the TTW strategy gave a positive effect on students’ writing skill. The mean score of the pre-test was 23.65, while the mean score of the post-test increased to 39.03. The statistical analysis used Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test because the post-test data were not normally distributed. The result of the test showed a significance value of p < 0.001 and an effect size of -1.000, indicating a strong and significant improvement in students' writing ability after the treatment. The increase in scores proves that Think-Talk-Write strategy effectively enhances students’ understanding and ability in writing narrative texts. From the data above, it can be concluded that the use of Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy is effective in developing the students’ writing skills in narrative texts. It provides structured stages that encourage students to think critically, collaborate through discussion, and express ideas in written form.
