Reflective practice is widely acknowledged as the most effective means to create effective teacher who wants to have better understanding of their works. It has been explicitly stated in western academic teacher education curriculum due to its significant impact on constructing life-long learning for teachers. However, this beneficial contribution of teachers’ professional development is not growing within the context of English as a foreign Language (EFL) teaching. Accordingly, this descriptive qualitative research aimed at (1) investigating teachers’ beliefs in teaching and learning English by utilizing reflective tools, and (2) attempting to identify whether or not their beliefs are implemented in their practices in which the reasons will also be explored. The data were gathered through interviews and classroom observations as the main source. Three English teachers were investigated to elicit their beliefs about teaching and learning. The findings showed years of teaching experiences and past experiences as a learner are the most arisen theme in which the initial facet strongly affects the way they perceive teaching, and the latter occurrence theme indirectly shape the teachers’ beliefs. As regards to the relation of their practices and their stated belief, however, not all of their beliefs were implemented in the classroom due to several factors such as the students’ factors, time-constraint, and the school obligations.

The 2013 Indonesian Curriculum stipulates that one of the students’ basic competencies in the English subject is to produce an analytical exposition text. The students are required to write the text persuasively and cohesively. These requirements make them consider composing such a text as a challenging task. This study investigated students’ utilization of cohesive devices in writing analytical exposition texts and examined their inaccurate uses. It attempted to demonstrate the underlying issues that caused the inaccurate uses of cohesive devices and to seek the solutions. The study employed Qualitative Content Analysis (QCA) of six analytical exposition texts written by 11th grade students in Cimahi. They were collected using purposive sampling and were analyzed using Halliday and Hasan’s cohesion framework. This study revealed that lexical cohesion served as the most frequently used cohesive devices in the students’ texts followed by reference and conjunction. Inaccurate uses of cohesive devices were also found. Most of the reference and conjunction devices were misused, whilst repetition devices were redundantly utilized. These findings showed that although the students were skilful in presenting relevant supporting arguments and making their text personal, they still experienced confusion when utilizing cohesive devices. Therefore, teachers need to equip the students with adequate knowledge concerning text cohesiveness as well as to provide more practice and feedback to improve their skills in writing an analytical exposition text.

This study includes 39 students from X Science 1 and 39 from X Science 2 as samples. The English test results of the students measure the success of this study. Based on the stated purpose, the researcher designed a quasi-experimental study. After taking the English Test, the student acquired reading comprehension skills. The examination was based on the tenth-grade English textbook. Through pre-test and post-test, the researcher obtained the results. The researcher in the data analysis procedure utilized normality, homogeneity, and a T-test. The examination of the data revealed a substantial difference between the reading comprehension achievement of students in experimental classes, which were taught using the Cooperative Script technique, and students in control classes, who were not. It might be seen by comparing the pre-test and post-test results of students. The experimental class had a mean pre-test score of 59.69 and a post-test score of 73.94. In contrast, the mean score on the pretest for the control group was 58.87, while the mean score on the posttest was 70.41.

Over the past few decades, technologies grew rapidly, transforming traditional instructions to be more digitalized and stimulating many researchers to study digital literacy practices in a school-educational context. However, studies exploring digital literacy practices in the context of tertiary education are still scarce. Within the qualitative approach, this study investigated digital literacy practices by EFL (English as a Foreign Language) postgraduate students. Moreover, it intensively discusses the kinds of digital tools used by the participants and the purposes of using them. Additionally, the way the participants conceptualized digital literacy was also elaborated. Thirty-four EFL Master students of a public university in Bandung, Indonesia, participated in this study. An online open-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interviews were applied in data collection. Meanwhile, eight dimensions of digital literacy in the Hague and Payton’s frameworks were used as the basis of the thematical analysis of the interview data. Results showed that the participants conceptualized digital literacy as soft skills for managing digital information covering the acts of searching, comprehending, evaluating, creating, and sharing. The prominent result of this study relates to how the participants used digital tools for academic/research and general purposes. Subsequently, this study recommends that tertiary education institutions provide more training on maximizing digital tools for academic writing and broader access to prepaid journal articles. Further exploration of lecturers’ digital literacy practices is highly recommended.

This study is aimed to investigate English teachers’ TPACK level and explore its impact on teaching English to Vocational high school students in Garut. In this mixed-method study, questionnaires, interviews, and observation were used as the instruments for collecting the data. The participants of this study were 50 vocational high school English teachers in Garut. After collecting the data from the questionnaire, this study showed various results for each domain. On average, more than 60% of the participants had a high level of TPACK. And the rest of them had an adequate and low level of TPACK. In addition, based on the interview, factors that influenced the differences in TPACK level among the participants were divided into three aspects: technology, pedagogy, and content knowledge. Factors that influence the technology aspects were facilities, technology mastery, and willingness and curiosity. Meanwhile, factors of pedagogy are influenced by teaching experience and strategy, training, and certification from the government. Whereas, factors of content knowledge are caused by educational background, age, and English knowledge mastery. Thus, English teachers with TPACK levels impact their teaching practices in vocational high schools. Most of them applied technology in the classroom, such as using laptops, projectors, audio and video file, PowerPoint, and digital book. Besides, they also used many teaching strategies with English knowledge mastery in teaching so that their students were more enthusiastic about learning English. This study is expected to benefit the teachers as they derive relevant details for their development and professionalism

This study aims to examine Bing AI (also known as Bing Chat or Copilot) as a feedback agent, focusing on responses to predetermined prompts related to the content score of a research abstract. Two prompts were systematically input, resulting in extended non-corrective feedback from Bing AI which was sensitive to the prompt wording. This study was motivated by challenges in EFL writing feedback provision. Difficulties that teachers face, limitations of peer feedback, and potential drawbacks of Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) tools were briefly discussed. The results indicate that Bing AI is a promising feedback agent, offering insights into overcoming challenges in feedback provision, specifically in EFL writing instruction. The limitations of the study are also briefly discussed, as well as recommendations for future studies.
