Abstract

This study explores the role of digital tools and language learning strategies in engagement and achievement at the graduate level. This was achieved through a mixed-methods strategy that included a sampling survey with Likert scales as well as in-depth coding of qualitative data. The survey was distributed through the platform and consisted of 15 open-ended questions measuring cognitive, emotional, and behavioral types of engagement on a scale of 1 to 5. The descriptive-analytical methods and qualitative coding were used to measure engagement and student experiences. Emotion engagement was found to be the strongest, while cognitive engagement was high as well but behavioral engagement was relatively lower, indicating participants’ struggle to keep up the consistency in studying. Interactive learning, real-life practice, and even motivational collaboration were used as qualitative analysis reveals while technical difficulties and poor attendance were provided. The results call for some degree of caution in the application of such digital tools that must be incorporated strategically. Future research should find ways to improve behavioral engagement and overcome technological hurdles to improve the overall effectiveness of the digital learning experience.

Abstract

This research addresses the impact of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) on learners' writing skills, motivation, and engagement within the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) setting. While it is known that PBL, involving the completion of real-life projects, helps improve writing skills, its motivational impacts, especially concerning the writing capability of EFL students, remain understudied. The study aimed to determine the extent of PBL’s effect on students’ writing skills with a specific focus on grammar, coherence, creativity, argumentation, and motivation toward writing activities. The research used qualitative methods through conducting interviews, document analysis of student projects, and thematic analysis to identify pivotal themes from the gathered data. The findings indicate that these students not only became more creative and skilled in writing, but also became more motivated and engaged as a result of task relevancy, technology, and self-reflection and feedback opportunities. The study found that PjBL has a significant impact on students' writing skills and motivation, while providing tangible phenomena and enriching constructive perspectives on writing lessons within EFL contexts. It strongly suggests that clearer direction on time allocation, genre adjustment, PBL collaborative learning, and ongoing feedback should be employed in future studies.

Abstract

The utilization of tubers as a means to enhance community income in Tarowang Village, Jeneponto Regency. Tubers such as sweet potatoes, cassava, and taro are local commodities with high economic potential if managed properly. Using a community empowerment approach, this study examines the potential for processing tubers into various value-added products, including chips, flour, and ready-to-eat foods. The results indicate that the use of tubers not only increases food diversification but also expands opportunities for household-based micro-enterprises. Through training and mentoring, the community can improve product processing skills, expand market access, and develop local and digital marketing strategies. The increase in community income is reflected in the increased scale of production and the growing demand for processed products in the local market. Furthermore, the use of tubers helps strengthen village food security and reduce dependence on imported food products. This study concludes that the development of tuber-based businesses has significant prospects for improving the economic welfare of the Tarowang Village community. Therefore, synergy is needed between the village government, supporting institutions, and the community to optimize local potential through innovation and business sustainability.

Abstract

Technology-enhanced English Learning (TEEL) has been widely explored in general English instruction but remains underexamined in vocational education, particularly dental technology. Dental technology students must master specialized terminology, communicate effectively with healthcare professionals, and engage with industry-specific tools—many of which operate in English—creating a growing need for targeted language instruction. This study investigates how TEEL supports English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and Teaching English for Specific Purposes (TESP) in addressing dental technicians' specific linguistic and professional requirements. Data were collected from fifteen dental technology students enrolled in TEEL lessons at a private university in Indonesia through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations to explore this. The classroom observations focused on students participating in an English course incorporating TEEL, documenting their interactions with digital tools, engaging in lessons, and applying language skills in professional practice scenarios. Thematic analysis revealed two key findings: (1) the benefits of TEEL for dental technology students, including improved access to resources, self-paced learning, and increased motivation and engagement, and (2) challenges in integrating technology, such as limited access to digital tools and difficulties in adapting them for vocational learning. The results indicate that TEEL positively influences students’ acquisition of technical English, enhances their self-efficacy in professional communication, and facilitates real-world learning through interactive simulations. However, disparities in digital literacy and unequal access to technology hinder effective implementation. This study highlights the need for targeted interventions to improve digital literacy and ensure equitable access to technology, thereby maximizing TEEL’s impact on vocational education.

Abstract

The increasing demand for high-quality academic publications has prompted the exploration of innovative tools to streamline the research process. We conducted a study to explore how graduate students perceive using tools like Publish or Perish (PoP) and VOSviewer to improve their research productivity. The research uses a mixed-method approach including surveys and interviews of graduate students in the Universitas Negeri Makassar postgraduate program. The results show that PoP allows effective literature searches and citation analysis, and VOSviewer enables a wide coverage visual exploration of bibliometric data, including research mapping and trend analyses. However, issues concerning technical know-how and tool access were highlighted. This study highlights the promising potential of incorporating PoP and VOSviewer into the existing academic writing curricula to help graduate students develop impactful work. The paper also discusses recommendations for better tool utilization and overcoming known challenges.
