Abstract

Indonesian education implemented online learning, including EFL online learning, since March 2020. But, the online implementation faced some challenges. One of them was the students’ learning engagement. That was why this study was interested in exploring the students’ engagement in their EFL online classrooms during COVID-19 pandemic. This study used a descriptive qualitative research design to investigate the students’ learning engagement. The participants of this study were forty students of an English education departement in a private university in East Java. Then, the researcher used three research instruments for collecting the data, such as questionnaires, class observation, and interview. The questionnaires related to the students’ behavioural, emotional, and cognitive engagement were administered to the students through Google Form. For the class observation, the researcher joined two online classes. Besides, the researcher also interviewed the lecturer of those two online classes. After the data of questionnaires were tabulated and the class observation data and the interview data were transcripted and coded, the researcher could know the results of this study. The results told that the students had low behavioural, emotional, and cognitive learning engagement during their online learning. Hopefully, the results of this study can give the new consideration for EFL teachers in selecting the teaching strategies and online platform when teaching English remotely.

Abstract

Writing is assumed as a very complicated skill among other skills. Students’ low motivation and students’ low knowledge of writing as well as inappropriate teacher’s teaching and learning strategy contribute to students’ low writing score. The appropriate teacher’s strategy can motivate the students to practice writing more and more. That is why this research applied strategy-based instruction (SBI) as one of the alternatives in teaching and learning writing. This was a pre-experimental research with one group pretest and posttest design, which was generally to know whether or not strategy-based instruction (SBI) was effective for teaching writing and specifically to find out the students’ ability in writing before and after SBI was applied. This research used total sampling. One class consisting of thirty students became the sample. The data were from writing test scores of pretest and posttest. The average score of posttest (74.6) was higher than that of pretest (69.5). Then, paired sample t-test was used to analyze those scores with the result that sig (2-tailed) 0.00 was lower than 0.05. It means that the average score of pretest differs significantly from that of posttest. Thus, it can be said that SBI is effective for teaching writing.
