Abstract

In a country like Indonesia, one of challenges in learning English as a foreign language is a lack of exposure of English in its authentic sense. The use of authentic materials seems to be an option to cope with this situation. One of the ways to optimize the use of the authentic materials to trigger students to experience learning and to enhance their active involvement in the learning process is by using it in extensive listening activities. Through extensive listening by using authentic materials, students are exposed to real native speech in meaningful language use. As the result, difficulties in listening gradually disappear.  In order to put the idea into practice, the first thing to do is to set objectives of each meeting based on core vocabulary and grammar that are suitable for the learners using comprehensible input principle as the basic consideration. Second, selecting authentic materials that suit the objectives and that give exposure to formulaic language and meaningful language use. Then, preparing activities in which the instruction is reasonable and lead to sufficient practice to develop fluency. Finally, synchronize teaching activities to increase students’ motivation to learn. As a follow up activities, students are informed and eventually involved in the whole process. Thus, students experience learning and actively involved in their learning process.

Abstract

One of the human attributes is the ability to process language.  Over the last few decades, we have learned a lot more about its neurological foundation that specific linguistic functions are believed to be supported by various brain’s sections in left and right hemispheres. However, studies have shown that language comprehension and grammar depend on other areas of the brain outside the so-called Broca's region, which corresponds to Brodmann areas 44 and 45. It has been linked to an expanded brain activity including BA44, BA45, and BA47, the anterior insula (BA13), the mesial part of the supplementary motor area (the lateral expansion of BA6), and the bottom layer of the forebrain. Studies have also exposed the brain’s memory systems in language learning, storage, and usage, which are called as declarative/procedural memory systems. Further, studies have unveiled that these declarative/procedural memory systems can be enhanced through interventions. Thus, understanding these issues is advantageous for language teachers/instructors to know how the brain works in learning a language and its grammar, which is vital to have effective teaching and learning. Such understanding may lead teachers to develop their syllabus and materials, select strategies and methods, and design various class activities that result in effective learning.

Abstract

Although there is a plethora of literature studies on self-regulation, self-efficacy, and academic writing, the detailed investigation of these three aspects in EFL doctoral students is scant. This study examined doctoral students self-regulation and self-efficacy in academic writing as potentially profound outcomes of their sojourning. Data were collected from narrative frames, narrative interviews, and Focus Group Discussions to explain all related dimensions of the successive EFL academic writings of eight doctoral students studying abroad. The thematic analysis of the data revealed that the participants gradually developed a perception of self-regulation and self-efficacy in academic writing processes during their sojourning. Five self-regulation writing strategies were identified as contributing to the success of advanced academic writing: cognitive, metacognitive, social-behavioral, motivational regulation, and socio-cognitive strategies. These strategies were essential for doctoral students preparation programs to maximize writing productivity. The students academic writing self-efficacy developed through writing strategies, peer interactions, academic atmosphere, academic English exposure, research skills, study engagement, and social life as doctoral students. The contributing factors influencing the students writing achievement included their writing behaviors, writing efficacy, academic writing use, and sojourning experiences. These experiences covered writing traditions in the scholarly community, graduate school programs, the English-speaking context, discourse, the supervisordoctoral student relationship, international academic communication, and other writing accomplishments. The findings imply a reciprocal relationship between their perceived writing self-efficacy and their progressive self-regulation in writing.

Abstract

This study investigated how teachers enhanced their professional self-understanding as educators and how this self-understanding influenced their teaching performance. The study adopted a narrative inquiry research design. Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews, guided by Kelchtermans’ theory. The data were gathered from seven teachers in Sekolah Penggerak, categorized into two groups: novice teachers and experienced teachers. Thematic data analysis was used to analyze the qualitative data. The research drew two main conclusions regarding teachers’ professional identities and the impact of continuous learning on their performance. First, most teachers unequivocally identify themselves as educators. Second, professional self-understanding significantly impacts teachers' teaching performance. The study suggested several recommendations for future research to expand upon its findings and provided more comprehensive insights into professional self-understanding in various educational contexts.

Abstract

English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) is increasingly promoted in Indonesian primary schools to accelerate bilingual competence, yet evidence on teacher readiness remains limited. This explanatory sequential qualitative-methods study examined the EMI readiness of 108 teachers from elementary schools in East Java. An adapted 16-item EMI-Readiness Scale (α =.89) and three open-ended prompts captured quantitative and qualitative data across knowledge, skills, and attitude dimensions. Descriptive statistics revealed moderate overall readiness: conceptual knowledge (M = 2.75), pedagogical–linguistic skills (M = 2.64), and attitudes (M = 2.88). Only 40 % of teachers felt confident in spoken or written English, and the lowest means concerned oral fluency (2.39) and writing (2.41). Regression analysis showed perceived policy clarity was the strongest predictor of self-efficacy (β = .42, p < .01). Cluster analysis identified three attitudinal profiles—ready-supported (28 %), conditionally willing (46 %), and reluctant (26 %). Qualitative data uncovered reliance on ad-hoc self-learning, resource shortages, and ambivalent sociocultural positioning. The findings highlight a persistent gap between policy aspirations and classroom capability, driven by limited professional development, insufficient language proficiency, unclear guidelines, and infrastructural constraints. The study proposes a phased, resource-backed professional-development agenda that integrates content-language pedagogy, collaborative mentoring, translanguaging scaffolds, and systematic monitoring to foster sustainable EMI implementation.

Abstract

Since there is an emerging issue to strengthen students' local identity particularly in expanding circle countries in the midst of globalization, local culture integration in English language teaching (ELT) has lately grown to answer the challenge. Regarding the case, this study presents a textbook development with local culture integration in ELT for young learners as an effort to build students’ identity at early ages. It exposes that local culture integration can be inserted to all units in the textbooks for primary students which complement the theme-based curriculum as mentioned in the Ministry of Education and Culture Regulation No. 22 Year 2016. It implies that English textbooks with local culture integration may be modified as a viable and acceptable technique of addressing learners' local cultures while learning foreign language. Further, this textbook development provides current guidance for English teachers on how local culture integration in ELT might increase the energy, motivation, and reasoning for Indonesian young learners to learn English in a meaningful context. HIGHLIGHTS: The sections developed in Among Tani English (learning objectives, brainstorming, materials, students’ activities, evaluation) are considered to be sufficient to meet its purpose as a guideline to provide input and teaching activities to assist students' English proficiency. “Among Tani” English textbook is designed in accordance with the thematic-based curriculum for primary school and the topics chosen help students in relating to other disciplines by having a comparable variety of themes to be covered to provides young learners with materials that they are acquainted with. This textbook’s coverage of local culture is based on the environment surrounding students in order to develop students’ cognition, character education, teach students to face threats from outside, and provide students with an overview of community life.

Abstract

This research analyzes the cultural content presentation in the textbook "Bahasa Inggris" for the twelfth-grade high school by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia, where this book is part of the 2013 curriculum. The analysis of cultural content in this research uses the three-source analysis theory of cultural information by Cortazzi and Jin, which will then be combined with Byram's, theory by providing codes in eight categories. Cortazzi and Jin's theory describes categorization in the presentation of cultural content in English textbooks. Meanwhile, Byram's checklist is used to classify cultural content, which has been categorized into these eight categories. This checklist reveals cultural information and how the content meets language and culture learning and teaching needs. The findings show that this EFL textbook presents source culture and target culture content, but international culture is not present. Material about source culture is presented most in this textbook.
