Abstract

The current study aims to investigates the effect of pre-service EFL teachers' awareness of promoting deeper learning on students’ 21st-century skills encouragement. This quantitative research uses a cross-sectional survey design. The participants were 366 pre-service EFL teachers from five universities in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The data were collected by distributing two questionnaires: the Deeper Learning Awareness, adapted from Jiang (2022) and Rodriguez and Fitzpatrick (2014), and the 21st-Century Skills questionnaires, adapted from Kelley et al. (2019). The pilot testing, expert judgement and SPPS analysis were used to assess the questionnaires’ validity, reliability, and practicality. The data were analyzed using Regression Analysis. The result reported that pre-service EFL teachers in the Special Region of Yogyakarta are aware of promoting deeper learning to support students’ 21st-century skills. Their deeper learning awareness also significantly predicted the promotion of 21st-century skills. The more pre-service EFL teachers are aware of promoting deeper learning, the more the 21st-century skills are implemented in the EFL learning.

Abstract

This study aims to improve the English speaking skills of students in class XI DPIB B at SMK Negeri 2 Malinau through the application of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model. The background of this research is the low speaking ability of students, which is characterized by limited vocabulary, lack of confidence, and low participation during English learning activities. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) using the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which was conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 32 students of class XI DPIB B. Data were collected through speaking performance tests and observations of students’ learning behavior during the implementation of the PBL model. The collected data were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative techniques. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ speaking skills, as indicated by the increase in the average score from 64.00 in the pre-test to 68.75 in cycle I and 76.00 in cycle II. Furthermore, the percentage of learning completeness increased from 25% in the pre-test to 81.25% at the end of cycle II. Observational data also revealed positive changes in students’ learning behavior, including higher participation, increased motivation, and greater confidence in speaking English. These findings demonstrate that the Problem-Based Learning model is effective in improving students’ English speaking skills and learning engagement.

Abstract

The absence of tailored English instructional materials for beginner learners in underserved regions may impede students' linguistic development. This study addresses this gap by identifying the specific learning needs of junior high school students in Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), Indonesia. Employing an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, data were collected from 27 purposively selected students at a public school in Kupang through online surveys and focus group interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using frequency distribution, while qualitative data were subjected to thematic analysis. The quantitative findings revealed that 66.7% of students prioritized the development of speaking skills, despite persistent difficulties attributed to limited vocabulary knowledge. Additionally, 63% of respondents expressed a preference for technology-mediated English instruction. Thematic analysis of qualitative data generated five key themes: the need for oral communication competence, vocabulary constraints, preference for ICT-integrated learning, extrinsic motivational orientation, and the perceived value of audiovisual resources. In conclusion, English curriculum development and instructional material design for junior high school students in eastern Indonesia—particularly in NTT—should prioritize the reinforcement of communicative competence through systematic vocabulary and pronunciation instruction, complemented by the strategic integration of information and communication technology (ICT).

Abstract

This study examines the role of practicing teachers in a microteaching course and its impact on developing student-teachers’ skills at an Indonesian public university. This study specifically aimed to 1) identify student experiences in microteaching sessions involving practicing teachers, 2) analyze the influence of this involvement on their teaching skills, and 3) explore the meaning of this collaboration from the students’ perspectives. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research involved third-year student-teachers, four lecturers, and ten practicing teachers from secondary schools in Yogyakarta. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and reflection notes, then analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis with source triangulation and member checking for validation. First, regarding student experiences, practicing teachers’ presence created an authentic and reflective learning environment where student-teachers engaged in microteaching that closely simulated real classroom situations. Second, concerning the influence on teaching skills, this collaboration significantly enhanced student-teachers’ abilities to design realistic lesson plans, conduct interactive teaching, manage classrooms effectively, and provide reflective assessment through direct guidance, modeling, and professional feedback. Finally, from the students’ perspective, practitioners were viewed not merely as technical mentors but as mediators between theory and practice and as professional role models who helped shape their teaching identity and self-reflection. The study concludes that collaborative microteaching effectively bridges academic learning and practical pedagogy. Sustained implementation within teacher education curricula is recommended to strengthen university-school partnerships and prepare future-ready educators.

Abstract

Enhancing Students' Speaking Abilities through Paired Storytelling Strategies. This study examined how using storytelling as a teaching strategy affected students' ability to communicate more clearly. The participants included thirty students from SMP Muhammadiyah 3 Yogyakarta, chosen through purposive sampling and split into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received storytelling instruction over four consecutive sessions, while the control group did not. Both groups were assessed on their speaking skills before and after the intervention. Results showed that the experimental group's post-test mean score was 96.0, compared to a pre-test mean score of 72.0. Specifically, the control group's mean post-test score was 64.0, an increase from the pre-test score of 60.0. The oral proficiency scores from each indicator demonstrated that students in the experimental group improved after being taught using paired storytelling, while the control group's scores did not improve. A one-group t-test demonstrated that post-test scores were significantly higher than pre-test scores for both groups, with t-values of -34.708 for the control group and -6.433 for the experimental group, both significant at the 0.000 level, well below the 0.05 threshold. These findings suggest that implementing storytelling in EFL classes can effectively improve students' speaking skills.Keywords: speaking skill, storytelling, improvement.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v14.i2.202473

Abstract

Writing in English is often considered one of the most challenging skills for EFL learners because it requires the ability to organize ideas clearly and accurately through the correct use of grammar. Many students still struggle with grammatical accuracy, especially in applying English rules such as verb forms, tenses, and sentence structures, which often lead to errors in their written work. This issue becomes particularly evident in writing recount texts, which require consistent use of past tense and proper sentence construction. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the types of grammatical errors and analyze their causes in recount texts written by eighth-grade students at a public junior high school in Banjarnegara Regency. Using a mixed-methods approach with an exploratory design, data were collected through document analysis of ten student texts and analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitative analysis was used to determine the frequency of each error type, while qualitative analysis was applied to interpret the causes of errors based on Richards' (1974) framework, including interlingual, intralingual, and developmental factors. The findings revealed that the most frequent grammatical errors occurred in the use of past tense verbs, subject–verb agreement, and prepositions. Intralingual factors such as overgeneralization, incomplete rule application, and false concept hypotheses were identified as the main causes of the errors, while a smaller number stemmed from interlingual influence. The study highlights the need for more contextualized and continuous grammar instruction to help students develop better grammatical awareness and accuracy in their writing. These findings provide valuable insights for English teachers in designing effective feedback and grammar-integrated writing activities

Abstract

This study explores the English language requirements of Mathematics Education students in academic settings using a qualitative descriptive methodology. The urgency of this study lies in the growing academic demand for non-English major students—particularly those in mathematics and science disciplines—to actively participate in English-medium academic practices such as thesis presentations, seminar discussions, and international collaboration. However, English speaking skills are often overlooked in ESP programs for these learners, resulting in a gap between what is taught and what is needed in the field. Data were gathered through interviews and document analysis involving ten third-semester Mathematics Education students at an Indonesian university. The findings revealed that students require speaking skills primarily for academic presentations, journal article discussions, and seminar participation. Key challenges include lack of confidence, grammatical inaccuracy, limited fluency, and difficulty in pronunciation—particularly of mathematical terminology. Students expressed interest in using digital and authentic academic sources such as YouTube videos, podcasts, and subject-related materials, and they preferred interactive learning environments involving group work and practical speaking tasks such as discussions, presentations, and role-plays. These findings highlight the need for a more contextualized English for Specific Purposes (ESP) program that integrates academic content relevant to students’ disciplines and leverages digital media for increased engagement. The implications for both English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts indicate that particularly, a need for specific content-based speaking instruction that meets the academic requirements for students in non-English majors who require English language instruction from a discipline-specific context.
