Abstract

This study examines the agency of English teachers in incorporating the Pancasila Student Profile (PSP) values into English Language Teaching (ELT) under Indonesia's Independent Curriculum. Despite the PSP's major role in curriculum reform, there is less understanding of how EFL teachers exert agency in implementing national character education objectives within language teaching methods, especially in rural settings. This qualitative study, informed by the ecological concept of teacher agency, included ten English teachers from five regencies on Lombok Island, Indonesia. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, narrative reflections, and document analysis, and were examined using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that instructors viewed PSP integration to assert agency through pedagogical decision-making, multidisciplinary cooperation, and instructional innovation. Nonetheless, their agency was hindered by restricted curricular understanding, inadequate assessment literacy, workload demands, and financial constraints. This study enhances the literature on teacher agency by illustrating how agency is simultaneously facilitated and restricted by personal, structural, and relational factors during curricular reform. The results underscore the necessity for ongoing professional development, collaborative educational environments, and supporting institutional policies to enhance teachers' ability to incorporate national values into English Language Teaching.

Abstract

Background: EFL teaching in Indonesian urban and rural schools have been experiencing persistent challenges due to linguistic, cultural, geographical and resources differences. However, these conditions have not been portraited from ecological persepctive of agency. Therefore, this study examines EFL teacher agency and instructional problem-solving in urban and rural Indonesian classrooms Methodology: This mixed-method study involves 129 EFL instructors (85 from rural schools, 44 from urban schools) who completed a survey, and 35 submitted reflective journals. Quantitative data were assessed using descriptive statistics, and qualitative data were evaluated through thematic analysis. Findings: Both urban and rural EFL teachers faced similar classroom issues like low motivation, vocabulary gaps, and speaking anxiety, though rural teachers linked them to limited resources and urban teachers to distractions and pressure. Urban teachers showed stronger and more consistent agency, especially in autonomy, professional growth, and future goals, while rural teachers drew on deep personal motivation but were often hindered by local challenges. Conclusion: The study shows that teachers’ ecological past experiences, present conditions, and future goals shaped how they solved problems. Rural teachers relied on local resources and flexible strategies, while urban teachers used creative, student-centered methods to build autonomy and global skills, pointing to the need for context-specific support and policies that empower teacher-led innovation. Originality: This study offers how teacher agency is lived out in the everyday problem-solving of EFL classrooms, not just in teachers’ beliefs or intentions. By comparing rural and urban contexts in Indonesia, it reveals how agency looks different across settings and highlights the creativity and resilience of teachers, especially in resource-challenged schools.

Abstract

Background: Research on English language teacher education has largely emphasized practicum experiences in shaping professional identity and teaching readiness. However, limited attention has been given to how coursework in English for Young Learners (EYL) programs contributes to early identity formation. This gap warrants closer empirical examination Methodology: A total of 121 students enrolled in EYL courses were invited to participate, and 50 of them gave their consent. Data were collected through reflective journals and a Likert-scale questionnaire. Findings: Thematic analysis revealed four recurring themes: evolving teacher identity, teaching readiness, impactful coursework components, and aspirations for future practice. Quantitative findings supported these insights, with a strong correlation found between meaningful coursework experiences and students’ visions for their future classrooms. While many participants felt intellectually prepared, some expressed concerns about emotional readiness, underscoring the need for supportive, hands-on learning environments. Conclusion: The study concludes that coursework has formatively built not only the pre-service teachers’ skills, but also a strong and sustainable sense of who they are and hope to be as future EYL educators. Originality: Grounded in English for Young Learners pedagogy, this study foregrounds coursework as a critical site of early professional identity formation for pre-service EYL teachers. Moving beyond practicum-centered ELT research, it provides mixed-method evidence of how child-centered, play-based, and reflective coursework shapes identity, teaching readiness, and future classroom enactment in an EFL context.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study investigates the predictive validity of peer assessment of teacher evaluations in English micro-teaching performance among preservice teachers Methodology: This study used a quantitative correlational-predictive design with 48 preservice teachers selected through random cluster sampling. The study used peer and teacher performance assessment rubrics covering eight teaching skills, which were previously validated by two experts (CVI = 1.0). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation, linear regression, and paired-sample t-tests to examine predictive validity, alignment, and discrepancies between peer and teacher evaluations in micro-teaching performance. Main Findings: Data reveal a moderate to strong correlation between peer and teacher scores (r = 0.645, p < 0.001), with peer assessments significantly predicting teacher evaluations (R² = 0.416). However, peer scores were consistently lower (M = 34.02 vs. 38.33, p < 0.001), particularly in complex areas like classroom management and reinforcement. This highlights peer assessment’s value as a supplementary tool for evaluating teaching and fostering reflection, while underscoring the need for assessor training and rubric calibration to ensure reliability. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study brings a new perspective by exploring whether peer assessment in English micro-teaching can actually predict teacher evaluations. Unlike most research that sees peer review only as a learning aid, this study shows peers can meaningfully mirror teacher judgments, while also revealing where their views differ. The findings highlight the potential of peer assessment as both a learning and an evaluative tool in teacher education.

Abstract

This article is aimed at determining the accuracy of post-editing translations on GNMT by English Department students. The objects of this study were students of the English Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, University of Mataram, who were admitted to the "Translation and Interpreting" course in the fourth semester of the 2021-2022 academic year. Data obtained through observation and documentation was used in two literary texts. The results of this study indicate that almost all students have poor accuracy in their post-editing results. Most of the post-editing accuracy levels of the two texts produced by students were not acceptable, with the criteria of “highly accurate” at 1%, followed by 14% for "accurate," 35% for “less accurate,” and “inaccurate” at 51%. Based on these percentages, it can be concluded that the level of accuracy of the translation in post-editing from GNMT shows inaccurate results. Therefore, it still needs to be improved to meet the target audience by paying attention to the naturalness of the target language in terms of sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation in order to produce a better translation.
