Abstract

This study aims to explore motivation to learn English when facing difficulties and fatigue among ESL students of University of Arkansas  based on the level of their study ,gender, age, living status (living alone and living with others). To collect the data, graduate and undergraduate degree holders were asked to take the survey voluntarily. The result of research  indicates that there is no significant different between undergraduate holder (mean = 3.54; std.dev = 0.48) and graduate degree holders  (mean = 3.64; std.dev = 0.52 , based on independent t-test, t= -1.270, p-value 0.05) However, when comparing the motivation based on the gender, the data signify the difference between male(mean = 3.65; std.dev = 0.51) and female .undergraduate degree holders(mean= 3.46; std.dev = 0.45),  in which male undergraduate degree holders are more motivated than females.  Also,  there is a significant different motivation between adult learners based on their living situation. The data shown that adult learners who live with others (mean= 3.63;std.dev= 0.47) have higher motivation than those who live alone (mean = 3.42; std.dev= 0.56) based on independent t-test ( t= -2.222, p-value 0.05). In addition, when motivation to learn is compared across age groups of participants, it indicates no significant difference (F = 1.282, p-value 0.05).

Abstract

Background: The rapid integration of digital technologies in secondary education has transformed English as a Foreign Language instruction, yet effective implementation remains uneven and highly contextual. While prior studies often focus on access or technological competence, less attention has been given to how teachers adapt pedagogically within real classroom conditions, particularly in regional Indonesian contexts. Aims: This study investigates how EFL teachers adapt their instructional practices in technology integrated classrooms, examining forms of implementation, contextual factors influencing adaptation, and teachers’ perceptions of instructional effectiveness. Methods: A qualitative multiple site case study was conducted at SMA Negeri 1 Palu and SMA Alkhairaat Palu in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Ten EFL teachers were selected through purposeful sampling. Data were collected through semi structured interviews and classroom observations between March and May 2025. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis following Braun and Clarke’s six phase framework, integrating inductive coding with theoretically informed interpretation. Results: The findings indicate that technology integration operates as a dynamic process of pedagogical negotiation rather than linear adoption. Teachers reorganized lesson structures, modified digital tasks in response to classroom contingencies, and recalibrated instructional decisions when facing infrastructural limitations. Professional experience influenced adaptive flexibility, with more experienced teachers demonstrating greater capacity for instructional redesign. Although digital tools enhanced student engagement, their effectiveness depended on deliberate scaffolding and pedagogical orchestration. Implications: This study advances a process-oriented understanding of pedagogical adaptation in technology-mediated EFL classrooms. The findings underscore the centrality of teacher agency and reflective judgment in sustaining meaningful digital learning environments. Professional development initiatives should therefore prioritize adaptive expertise and pedagogical reasoning rather than technical skill acquisition alone.

Abstract

The research investigated challenges faced by English teachers in West Aceh, Indonesia, emphasizing the importance of effective professional development. The focus was on the impact of Classroom-Based Assessment (CBA) and instructional coaching on English teachers' performance in secondary schools. Employing a mixed-method approach with questionnaires and tests, the study targeted English teachers in secondary schools in West Aceh, with a sample of 50 teachers from 25 schools. Results revealed that instructional coaching significantly improved teachers' proficiency in providing feedback, covering aspects like classroom administration and student engagement. Notably, statistical analysis using the One Sample T-test showed a substantial enhancement in English instructors' feedback skills (P = 0.000 < 0.05) through instructional coaching. These findings had wide implications for the professional growth of English teachers in Aceh, with global relevance. The research contributes to the field of teacher professional development by providing empirical evidence on the effectiveness of integrating Classroom-Based Assessment with structured instructional coaching to strengthen feedback literacy among English teachers in secondary education. It also offers a contextualized model that can inform policy design, coaching frameworks, and sustainable professional learning programs in similar developing educational settings. The study suggested that instructional coaching was a powerful strategy to enhance teachers' feedback capabilities, positively impacting student outcomes. Teachers could draw valuable insights from this research to refine teaching methodologies and improve student learning experiences.
