Abstract

The main aim of the research was to find out the improvement of the students’ writing skill through a clustering technique. This study was a Classroom Action Research (CAR) which was done in three cycles by following the stages of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. The subjects of the research were 26 students of English Study Program in Madiun State Polytechnic. The data collected were in the forms of qualitative and quantitative. The researchers used quantitative data taken from the scores before implementing a clustering technique (pre-test) and the scores after the implementation (post-test). Besides, quantitatative data were taken from the interview and observation to reveal the improvement after the implementation of a clustering technique. The results showed that the students were interested in writing by using a clustering technique. As a result, most of the students gradually improve their writing skill in composing a paragraph at the end of each cycle. The current study provides an insight for teaching writing for EFL students especially in developing good paragraphs.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze how openness to experience and learning goal orientation influence paradoxical leader behavior and the mediating effect of paradoxical leader behavior and the moderating effect of psychological capital on follower performance. Design/methodology/approach: This research is a quantitative research, using PLS-SEM data analysis. The sampling method uses purposive sampling. The respondents were 102 lecturers and administrative staff at universities who had subordinates. Questionnaires were distributed to collect data Findings: Significant results were shown by openness to experience on paradox leader behavior, as well as learning goal orientation on paradoxical leader behavior and learning goal orientation on follower performance. The results showed that paradoxical leader behavior neither did mediate openness to experience nor learning goal orientation on follower performance, Meanwhile, insignificant results were also shown by openness to experience on follower performance, and paradoxical leader behavior on follower performance. In addition, there was no moderating effect of psychological capital on paradoxical leader behavior on follower performance. Research limitations/implications: This study has limitations, as the population in this study only came from private universities in Indonesia. Future research could be expanded to include public universities or other demographic groups/sectors and adding other variables to deepen understanding of the relationship between these variables. Practical implications: The results of the study indicate that leaders and foundations at private universities need to develop a culture and create a work environment through rules and policies that emphasize learning goal orientation and openness to experience to encourage adaptive paradoxical leadership behavior. Employees who understand paradoxical leader behavior can see conflicting and competing demands as phenomena in the organization and can integrate various demands so that the contradictions between them can be productive. Originality/value: This research contributes to the implementation of Paradox Theory and Personality Traits in influencing the performance of subordinates among lecturers at private universities in Indonesia. This represents a research gap and is interesting because there is not much research on this topic. Paper Type: This article is a research paper examining the influence of openness to experience and learning goal orientation on paradoxical leader behavior, the mediating effect of paradoxical leader behavior, and the moderating effect of psychological capital on follower performance. Keywords: Paradox leader behavior; openness to experience; learning goal orientation; follower performance, psychological capital.

Abstract

At the point when the students are assessed, they are demanded to work to publish scientific writing. This study investigates the process of constructing scientific writing as well as the academic search engine that is frequently used by graduate students in building their papers. Later on, this study also discloses the factor of using repeated platforms. A personal learning environment helps the students to connect both inside and outside the classroom learning by employing digital tools. This paper presents a case study exploring the steps of conducting scientific writing, the academic search engine mostly used by students, and the factors in deciding the platform. Eighteen graduate students majoring in the English education department were the participants of this study. The data was collected through class observation, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews. The result shows several steps to construct scientific writing including readiness, composing the article, getting ready for publication, distribution, and development. While Google Scholar (100%), Web of Science (94.7%), and online library (63.2%) are the top three online platforms as the academic search engine they used to search for references to build arguments for their scientific writing. Some factors why those platforms become highly beneficial are exposed by the participants such as their pertinence, reference quality, and publication impact. This study is expected to provide certain considerations for students or scholars about utilizing several online platforms and some reasons behind which is beneficial to build scientific writing publications.

Abstract

This study investigates students’ perceptions of Smalltalk2Me, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered conversational assistant designed to improve speaking skills in classroom learning. The main objective of this research is to explore how students perceive the tool’s effectiveness, usefulness, interactivity, and overall learning experience when using it for speaking practice. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through semi-structured interviews involving students who had used Smalltalk2Me as part of their English-speaking activities. The interview data were analyzed thematically to identify emerging patterns related to engagement, motivation, and skill development. The findings reveal that students view Smalltalk2Me as an effective and accessible tool that enhances speaking fluency and confidence since it allows practice anytime and anywhere. Students also appreciate its realistic conversation simulations and personalized feedback, which help them recognize pronunciation errors, improve vocabulary use, and refine sentence structure. Additionally, the AI assistant creates a supportive and low-anxiety learning environment, making learners more comfortable expressing themselves in English. Overall, the study concludes that Smalltalk2Me serves as a valuable supplementary tool for improving students’ speaking competence and fostering autonomous learning in technology-enhanced language classrooms.

Abstract

This classroom action research (CAR) aims to improve students’ English-speaking skills in formal communication contexts. The study focuses on second-semester students of the Business and Professional Communication Study Program at Politeknik Negeri Madiun in the 2024/2025 academic year. The main problem addressed is the students’ low ability to speak English formally and fluently. The objective is to determine whether watching YouTube videos can enhance students’ formal speaking performance. The research employed both qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative data were obtained from students’ performance scores before and during the implementation, while quantitative data were gathered through observations, questionnaires, and interviews to compare pre-test and post-test results. The intervention used several active viewing techniques, including active viewing, freeze framing and prediction, silent viewing, and reproduction activity. The findings indicate a consistent improvement in students’ speaking abilities across all research cycles. The average scores increased from 61.1 in the pre-test, to 63.6 in post-test Cycle I, 66.6 in Cycle II, and 70.0 in Cycle III. These results demonstrate that integrating YouTube videos with active viewing techniques effectively enhances students’ formal speaking competence. In conclusion, the use of interactive video-based learning can significantly support the development of English-speaking skills in formal contexts for vocational students.
