It requires particular approaches to produce a qualified academic writing since it is a basis of understanding, representing the quality of the writers thinking and potential ideas. This study was conducted to investigate the experiences of two Indonesian students taking a Masters degree at the University of Adelaide, in constructing academic writing. Interview, to give an ethnographic perspective, was used in this study and the participants were asked with seven open-ended questions. The findings showed that, the students identified second language difficulties with regard to writing in general (grammatical and orthographic category), and difficulties with understanding the readings, and translating that into critical analysis to support argumentation. English as a foreign language (EFL) educational background was another issue to appear during the interview in relation to their obscurities in constructing the writing academically. Peer review, furthermore, also played a significant role to help them produce a better writing through proofreading.

Language shift means replacing one language to another as a communication tool within a community. This study intends to investigate the factors that cause language shift among Acehnese and its impact to the young generations of Acehnese language users. The study reveals that there are two factors causing a shift in Acehnese language, namely: the external factors (i.e., culture, economy, and inter-generational transfer) and (2) internal factors (i.e, language attitude and language ability). In addition to the impact of language use, the study points out that although most of the Acehnese people are able to speak their own community language, their children are rapidly losing their language.

This study focused on analyzing the difficulties faced by students when speaking English at Darul Ulum Islamic Boarding School in Banda Aceh. The study aimed to identify these difficulties and explore the underlying factors contributing to them. A mixed-methods research design was employed, involving questionnaires and interviews. The participant of this research was 21 eleventh-grade students. The findings indicated that students face various challenges in speaking English. They encountered obstacles in grammar (43% expressing concerns), fluency (15% citing regional accents as a barrier), pronunciation (15% experiencing difficulties), and vocabulary (43% uncertain about their proficiency). The study highlighted the need for tailored support to address these issues effectively. Additionally, the research explored factors contributing to these difficulties, including inhibition (43% lacking confidence), "Nothing to Say" during activities (24% finding it challenging), the availability of conversation partners (86% do not face a shortage), and the influence of the mother tongue (57% finding their native language easier). The study concluded that these multifaceted factors influence students' English-speaking abilities.

In Aceh, English is still taught as foreign language and its teaching practices have experienced a rapid growth in the last decades. This qualitative phenomenological study investigates the complex experiences of TESOL lecturers, examining their perspectives towards this issue, exploring teaching methodologies used, and challenges faced in contemporary language education contexts. Through in-depth semi-structured interviews with five experienced lecturers at English Education Department of UIN Ar-Raniry Aceh, this study explores the multifaceted nature of English language teaching. The study reveals that successful TESOL instruction transcends traditional linguistic pedagogy, requiring sophisticated, adaptive strategies that integrate technological innovations, cultural sensitivity, and personalized learning approaches. Key findings highlight the critical importance of flexible teaching methodologies to empower the students in English communication, technology integration to maintain students’ motivation in English learning, and continuous professional development in addressing the dynamic needs of language learners. The study demonstrates that effective TESOL lecturers navigate complex educational landscapes by continuously adapting their pedagogical practices to meet evolving student needs and global communication challenges.

This study investigated how language functioned as a marker of group identity among teenagers in contemporary digital and social environments. While many studies discuss youth language variation, few explore how linguistic choices actively construct social belonging. Using a qualitative research design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 high school students aged 15–18. They were selected through purposive sampling based on their active involvement in peer-group communication as well as active daily users of messaging and social media platforms (like Instagram, Tik Tok, and Facebook). Data were analyzed through thematic analysis to identify patterns in how teenagers used spoken, written, and visual language to signal identity. Findings revealed three major themes: slang and exclusive vocabulary as identity markers; emojis, memes, and reaction symbols as visual identity; and code-switching as social positioning and context shifting. The participants identified specific slang used exclusively within their groups, such as “GWS (get well soon),” which is used sarcastically to tease rather than to express concern; “Gw b aja” (an Indonesian abbreviation meaning “I’m just casual/chill”); “bet” (expressing agreement or acceptance of a challenge); “iykyk” (“if you know, you know”); and “skibidi / rizz / sigma” (TikTok-influenced identity slang). The interviews also revealed that participants strategically used code-switching among Indonesian, English, and local dialects to navigate different social contexts and relational distances. In addition, visual digital language—such as emojis, memes, GIFs, and reaction symbols—functions as a form of “visual identity,” reinforcing a sense of belonging within online interaction spaces. These linguistic practices demonstrate that language among teenagers is not merely a communication tool, but a deliberate process of identity performance, social positioning, and negotiation of membership.

Implementasi evaluasi pembelajaran digital di Lembaga Pendidikan Tenaga Kependidikan (LPTK) menghadapi berbagai kendala yang dapat menghambat efektivitas proses penilaian. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis kendala implementasi evaluasi digital serta merumuskan strategi penguatan berdasarkan karakteristik kelembagaan. Penelitian menggunakan desain sequential explanatory mixed methods dengan subjek penelitian berjumlah 121 responden di FTK UIN Ar-Raniry dan FKIP Universitas Abulyatama yang terdiri dari unsur struktural, dosen, dan mahasiswa. Data dikumpulkan melalui angket dan wawancara mendalam, kemudian dianalisis secara kualitatif dengan pendekatan tematik dan triangulasi sumber. Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan kendala multidimensional yang mencakup: (1) aspek infrastruktur teknis (ketidakstabilan jaringan dan fragmentasi platform); (2) aspek kebijakan (ketiadaan SOP dan lemahnya monitoring); (3) aspek pelatihan dan dukungan teknis (pelatihan belum sistematis dan tidak ada helpdesk); serta (4) aspek kompetensi SDM (kesenjangan literasi digital). Analisis komparatif menunjukkan bahwa FTK UIN Ar-Raniry menghadapi kendala birokrasi koordinasi meskipun memiliki infrastruktur terpusat, sementara FKIP Universitas Abulyatama menghadapi fragmentasi platform meskipun memiliki fleksibilitas adopsi. Strategi penguatan yang direkomendasikan mencakup empat pilar: peningkatan infrastruktur teknologi, pembentukan unit dukungan teknis, penyusunan SOP evaluasi digital, dan pelaksanaan pelatihan berkelanjutan yang harus diimplementasikan secara sistematis dan kontekstual berdasarkan karakteristik institusi. Kata Kunci: Evaluasi digital, kendala implementasi, LPTK, strategi penguatan, mixed methods
