Abstract

A great number of studies researching the incorporation of AI into English language teaching have grown significantly within the last five years. Nevertheless, to date, limited studies have been found to specifically review studies regarding AI integration in English language teaching. To fill the gap, this meta-synthesis study aims at presenting a summary of qualitative literature exploring how AI is integrated in English language teaching. Sixteen out of forty-seven articles were selected from various reputable databases as well as peer-reviewed journals (i.e., Scopus indexed) including Taylor & Francis, Science Direct, Wiley, Emerald, and ProQuest. Only qualitative data were processed and analysed thematically. Findings revealed some emerging themes: 1) student and teacher’s views towards AI integration in ELT, 2) benefits and drawbacks of AI integration in ELT, and 3) the role of AI for language skill improvement. In addition, the study shed light on several research topics recommended for further research.

Abstract

This qualitative case study explores how cooperative learning unfolded during the implementation of Index Card Match (ICM) in a sixth-grade English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom in Bandung, Indonesia. Grounded in Johnson and Johnson’s cooperative learning theory, Vygotsky’s sociocultural framework, and Silberman’s active learning principles, the study focused on how small-group interaction fostered students’ social development through social mediation and collaborative behaviors. Twenty-five students participated in six ICM sessions, working in five small groups. Data were collected through observation sheets, field notes, and semi-structured interviews, and analyzed thematically using Saldaña’s coding framework Six interconnected themes emerged: (1) peer mediation and verbal scaffolding, (2) collaborative role negotiation, (3) self and peer regulation in task engagement, (4) clarification and meaning-making, (5) positive emotional climate and motivation, and (6) challenges and resolution in cooperative learning. These patterns reflected how students shared responsibilities, supported one another, and co-constructed understanding through dialogic interaction. The findings highlight that structured cooperative tasks like ICM can nurture students’ interpersonal growth and classroom social norms. This study offers insights for EFL educators seeking to promote meaningful peer collaboration in primary-level language classrooms.

Abstract

Grammarly has been a popular automated writing evaluation (AWE) tool incorporated in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing instruction. Grammarly studies have also proliferated. However, the trends of Grammarly studies in this context have not been captured sufficiently. To fill this gap, this study reviews the trends of Grammarly studies in Indonesia, classifying published studies from 2014 to 2024 (the search occurred in March 2024). To this end, Grammarly studies were retrieved from the Sinta database and Google Scholar via Publish or Perish 8. The inclusion criteria determined that 11 studies were to be included. Using content analysis, research types, topics, instruments, methods, and key findings are classified and reported. The analysis showed that qualitative research was the most widely used method, followed by quantitative research. Meanwhile, research and development (R&D) and classroom action research (CAR) are extremely scant. Additionally, most studies have focused more on students’ perception of Grammarly than its actual performance. These findings suggest that further CAR-based, experimental, and correlational studies on the use of Grammarly in Indonesia are needed to address the research gaps identified. The study provides useful insights that can serve as a basis for future research on the use of Grammarly in language teaching and applied linguistics, especially in Indonesia.

Abstract

The integration of digital tools in education has underscored the need for innovative strategies to develop critical skills, particularly in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts. Among vocational school students, the ability to think critically and speak effectively in English is essential for employability and global communication. This qualitative study explored the use of Instagram to enhance critical thinking in speaking among vocational school students in Indonesia. Five EFL teachers, all experienced in using Instagram in the classroom, participated in the research. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and analysis of students' Instagram-based speaking activities. Thematic analysis was employed to identify key patterns and insights. Findings indicate that Instagram supports critical thinking development by encouraging students to analyze content, evaluate different viewpoints, and articulate arguments through speaking tasks. Students also demonstrated improved fluency and confidence. However, challenges such as digital distractions and varying levels of digital literacy emerged. Teachers highlighted the need for structured guidance and scaffolding to mitigate these issues. Instagram holds significant potential as a pedagogical tool for enhancing critical thinking in speaking within EFL vocational settings. Effective implementation requires intentional instructional design, including reflective questioning, peer feedback, and guided support. Future research should examine the long-term effects of social media-based learning on learners’ cognitive and linguistic progress.

Abstract

This study investigates the alignment between teachers’ selected digital platforms and students’ platform preferences in supporting English speaking practice in the EFL context of Jambi Province, Indonesia. Despite the increasing integration of digital tools in language learning, limited research has explored how mismatches between teacher choices and student preferences influence speaking engagement.A qualitative case study design was employed involving 30 students and 2 English teachers from two secondary schools selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and supported by questionnaires for triangulation. The data were analyzed thematically using Oxford’s (1990) language learning strategies framework.The findings reveal that WhatsApp and YouTube were the most frequently used platforms due to their accessibility and ease of use. However, students showed a stronger preference for Instagram, which they perceived as more engaging and less anxiety-inducing for speaking practice. While partial alignment existed in the use of familiar platforms, a notable misalignment emerged in platform preference, potentially limiting students’ engagement and opportunities for meaningful speaking practice.The study concludes that effective integration of digital platforms in EFL speaking instruction requires not only consideration of accessibility and teacher manageability but also alignment with students’ preferences. Incorporating student-preferred platforms in a structured and pedagogically sound manner may enhance engagement and support more meaningful speaking practice, particularly in contexts with infrastructural constraints.

Abstract

Autonomous learning fosters students’ independence in managing their learning without teacher intervention. However, many students currently lack motivation for independent English vocabulary learning because of unengaging methods. The objective of this study is to determine students’ perceptions regarding the use of TikTok as a medium for learning English vocabulary for autonomous learning and improving their English vocabulary. This study employed qualitative research to analyze data, focusing on 5 AP2 students from a vocational high school in Bandung, Indonesia. The students were chosen as participants because they used TikTok as a medium for English vocabulary learning in autonomous learning. Additionally, the AP2 students were selected because their study program, Hospitality accommodation, involves frequent interaction with English vocabulary, making them more likely to engage with vocabulary learning platforms like TikTok. Data were gathered through interviews and analyzed using Miles and Haberman’s theory, which has three steps: reduce the data, display the data, and make a conclusion. The findings revealed that most students responded positively to using TikTok as a medium for autonomous English vocabulary learning, indicating that TikTok was effective in enhancing their vocabulary acquisition. The study concluded that TikTok is an effective and engaging medium for supporting autonomous English vocabulary learning, although potential distractions from the platform’s content should be considered.

Abstract

A genre-based approach is argued to be effective in developing students’ academic writing ability, but feedback provision remains a challenge. Studies on GenAI feedback have shown that GenAI tools can provide students with immediate, personalized feedback. However, a few studies have investigated the impact of integrating GenAI feedback into a genre-based approach. To fill this gap, this study integrated GenAI feedback into a process-genre approach (PGA) to teaching exposition, which is an academic genre. Focusing on students’ interpersonal lexicogrammatical developmental trajectory, this study employed a single-case study design. Data were collected from 15 EFL (English as a foreign language) undergraduate students' drafts (diagnostic writing test, four successive drafts, and final writing test). Students’ texts were scored using an SFL-informed rubric. The developmental trajectory was analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA, along with the SFL mood, modality, and appraisal systems. The results indicated a statistically significant increment in students’ interpersonal grammar, F(2.85, 39.92) = 33.56, p < .001, ηp2 = .706, though a slight drop in the final writing test was observed. This study concludes that PGA with GenAI feedback could facilitate students’ interpersonal lexicogrammar, but students still needed learning and writing support from the teacher. The findings of this study contribute to our understanding of the PGA with GenAI feedback in teaching exposition.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has introduced new challenges in instructional practices, particularly in relation to media literacy. Empirical conditions in Pangandaran Regency indicate that many English teachers still utilize digital media primarily as instructional support tools, with limited integration of critical analysis and Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in classroom activities. This community engagement program aimed to enhance English teachers’ understanding and professional competence in implementing a HOTS-oriented media literacy instructional model. The program employed an action research approach conducted through four stages: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and follow-up. Data were collected qualitatively through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and analysis of training documents. The participants consisted of 60 individuals, including school supervisors, principals, and junior secondary English teachers affiliated with the teachers’ professional forum (MGMP). The findings demonstrate improvements in teachers’ conceptual understanding of media literacy, shifts toward more reflective and analytical instructional strategies, and increased awareness of ethical and social dimensions of media use. The program highlights that structured HOTS-based training contributes positively to strengthening teachers’ professional competence in responding to the demands of digital-era learning environments.   Abstrak Perkembangan teknologi digital yang pesat menghadirkan tantangan baru dalam praktik pembelajaran, khususnya terkait literasi media.
