Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now beginning to be integrated into language learning, particularly in pronunciation practice. However, there is a lack of research exploring students' perceptions and challenges in using AI-based applications for pronunciation practice, especially in the context of English as a foreign language (EFL) learning in Indonesia. This study aims to investigate students' perceptions and challenges toward the use of AI-based applications for pronunciation practice by applying the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by Davis (1989) and Challenges with the Use of AI in ELT/L framework by Crompton et al. (2024). The research employed a qualitative study with data collection through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews involving 34 English Language Education students. The study found that students view AI-based applications, specifically Google Translate, Elsa Speak and Duolingo, as effective and user-friendly tools that provide personalized feedback, repetitive practice, and flexible learning plans. Apart from that, students also feel that the apps help them to gain a better understanding about important features like consonants, intonation and stress. However, several challenges were identified, including technical problems, recognition errors, privacy concerns, and doubts about the accuracy of feedback. Despite these challenges, AI-based applications show promising potential to support pronunciation learning if there are further improvement to address existing limitations.

Abstract

Creative writing is essential in fostering students' ability to express ideas and emotions, yet it remains underemphasized in EFL classrooms due to perceived challenges and low motivation among learners. The rise of digital platforms, particularly Instagram, presents an opportunity to enhance creative writing by leveraging its multimodal and interactive features. Despite growing interest in social media’s educational potential, a comprehensive synthesis of Instagram’s role in creative writing instruction remains underexplored. This conceptual review examines how Instagram can support EFL students’ creative writing by analyzing 30 scholarly articles through a systematic literature review and VOS viewer-based keyword mapping. Findings indicate that Instagram’s visual and interactive affordances—such as captions, stories, and hashtags—effectively stimulate creativity, improve narrative construction, and foster engagement through peer feedback and authentic audiences. The platform also promotes digital literacy and learner autonomy by bridging formal and informal learning environments. However, challenges like digital distractions and privacy concerns necessitate structured pedagogical integration. The study concludes that Instagram, when used strategically, can enhance creative writing skills by aligning with students’ digital practices, though further research is needed to assess long-term impacts across diverse learner contexts. These insights offer practical recommendations for educators to design scaffolded, multimodal writing tasks that leverage Instagram’s features while addressing ethical considerations. The implications highlight the transformative potential of social media in making creative writing more accessible, engaging, and relevant for 21st-century learners.

Abstract

This study examines the perspectives of non-English major students regarding the role of interviewing native speakers in enhancing their English proficiency at a public online institution in Indonesia. A mixed-method design with a sequential explanatory approach was implemented. Quantitative data were collected from 50 non-English major students using a Google Form questionnaire and subjected to descriptive analysis to discern overarching perceptual trends. After that, we looked at the open-ended responses qualitatively to find out more about the things that were shaping those perceptions. The results show that most students think that interviewing native speakers is challenging and interesting way to improve their speaking confidence, listening comprehension, and vocabulary since they have to use English directly with the native speakers. The qualitative findings indicate that students regard the activity as a genuine learning experience that enhances real-life communication and boosts their enthusiasm to actively engage with English. In conclusion, the study indicates that incorporating interviews with native speakers is an effective pedagogical strategy for enhancing English competence among learners from non-English academic backgrounds.

Abstract

Listening skill is a crucial yet challenging aspect of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning, particularly for junior high school students with limited exposure to authentic spoken English. Although podcasts have been widely used in language learning, existing studies mainly focus on empirical outcomes, while conceptual analyses linking podcast characteristics to listening theories remain limited. This article aims to conceptually analyze The Haye Way Podcast as a medium for improving English listening skills. Using a conceptual research design, this study synthesizes theories of listening comprehension, meaningful and comprehensible input, and podcast-based learning. The analysis indicates that the podcast provides authentic yet accessible spoken input, familiar thematic content, and affective support that may facilitate listening comprehension. This article concludes that The Haye Way Podcast has theoretical potential as a supportive listening resource in EFL contexts and offers pedagogical insights for listening instruction.

Abstract

The widespread use of social media has reshaped English learners’ exposure to vocabulary beyond formal classroom settings. Nevertheless, research on TikTok in English language education has largely emphasized its intentional pedagogical use, leaving the role of non-educational content in incidental vocabulary learning underexplored. This study aims to conceptually examine TikTok as an informal digital environment that supports incidental English vocabulary learning among EFL learners. Adopting a conceptual research design, the study synthesizes theories of incidental vocabulary learning, informal language exposure, and recent scholarship on digital media in ELT. The analysis indicates that non-educational TikTok content, code-switching practices, and interactive comment sections provide meaningful, repeated, and socially mediated vocabulary exposure. These characteristics position TikTok as an informal digital learning ecology where vocabulary acquisition emerges unintentionally through everyday digital engagement. The study concludes that TikTok can complement formal instruction by extending vocabulary learning opportunities beyond classroom boundaries.
