Abstract

A good speech is a speech that is easily understood by the audience. To achieve it, cohesion should be built among the clauses in the speech. This study aims to analyze the realization of theme and thematic progression in the speeches of senior high school students at the Erlangga English Speech Contest 2021. A systemic functional discourse analysis approach was employed by focusing on textual metafunction. A YouTube video entitled ‘National Grand Final Erlangga English Speech Contest 2021 Senior High School’ became the research data. The video was transcribed into written form. Four speeches were randomly chosen and labeled SHS 1, SHS 2, SHS 3, and SHS 4. The result showed that all themes were realized in the speeches. Topical and textual themes became the dominant theme. In terms of thematic development, constant theme, and multiple/ split rhyme were freely realized. This indicates that the speakers can build cohesion among the clauses. However, empty themes and failed thematic progression were still found in the speeches.

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the English presentation self-efficacy of ESP undergraduate students through a longitudinal-experimental research design. Rooted in Bandura's social cognitive theory, it addresses two research problems: how Indonesian ESP undergraduate students' English presentation self-efficacy developed when they were exposed to mastery experience in the form of presentation tasks, and how individual and group presentation tasks affected the English presentation self-efficacy development. Three groups of ESP undergraduate students (n = 107) taking ESP English for Management were purposively selected as the participants for the study. Each group was exposed to one of the three forms of interventions: individual presentation tasks, homogeneous-group presentation tasks, and heterogeneous-group presentation tasks. A Likert-type presentation self-efficacy questionnaire validated by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was utilized to collect the data in Weeks 3, 8, 12, and 16 of the semester. The study found that the Indonesian ESP undergraduate students' English presentation self-efficacy developed significantly as they completed the presentation tasks. The homogeneous-group presentation task outperformed both the heterogeneous-group and individual presentation tasks in enhancing English presentation self-efficacy. Implications for the teaching practices, study limitations, and future research recommendations are presented.

Abstract

As a response to interaction with the school environment during teaching practice, emotional experiences in teaching are still a challenge for future English as a foreign language (EFL) teacher candidates. Despite the growing focus on emotional studies, there is a lack of exploration of EFL pre-service teachers' (PSTs) emotional geographies during teaching practicum. To address this gap, it is crucial to investigate PSTs’ emotional geographies in teaching practicum. Hence, this qualitative case study enlisted four EFL PSTs from one of the state Islamic institutes in Southeast Sulawesi who have completed teaching practice in two schools in Kendari, Indonesia. The data were collected through written reflection, interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD). Afterwards, data were analyzed following the thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) using the framework of emotional geographies of teaching (Hargreaves, 2001). Results show that participants showed positive and negative emotions during their teaching practice in moral dimensions. Those emotions are implicated in developing their competencies, including professional and cognitive aspects. These emotions influence students' study and follow-through, fostering a positive attitude. The study emphasizes the importance of EFL pre-service teachers developing emotional awareness and building strong connections within schools to successfully address challenges during their teaching practices.

Abstract

Building students’ literacy skills needs to be done as early as possible. Elementary school students are at the perfect age of getting much exposure to literacy. Therefore, teachers need to be able to do some activities in the classrooms that build literacy skills. However, not all teachers know and apply the teaching techniques proposed by the Ministry of Education and Culture in school literacy movement. This community service aimed to address the needs of elementary school teachers, members of Bawana Alit group, in Tembalang, Semarang, on literacy teaching techniques. The goal was to empower these members with practical skills in implementing literacy teaching techniques in their classroom, depending on their students’ literacy levels. This workshop involved some stages, including preparation and implementation. The participants now have more effective literacy teaching strategies to be applied in their classrooms.

Abstract

Despite providing flexible, accessible and relevant learning opportunities to Indonesia’s marginalized groups, the equivalency program is looked down upon and its students are labelled with the stigma of second-class students. By co-constructing qualitative data through document analysis, site visits and interviews with the principal, facilitators and students of Omah Dongeng Marwah, a community learning center which provides a high school equivalency program in Kudus Central Java, the current study challenges such stereotypes by exploring critical literacies as practiced in the community learning center. This study argues that meaningful literacy practices, especially storytelling and creative writing, can be effective and viable mechanisms to enhance literacy learning, and build student agency and voice. Our findings reveal that storytelling might contribute to the improvement of reading skills as students are exposed to diverse narratives, while creative writing offers a space where students can practice articulating their ideas and feeling in authentic and meaningful ways. More importantly, storytelling and creative writing as practiced in the learning process have given underprivileged students opportunities and agency to define themselves despite being marginalized.

Abstract

This research examines the vocabulary profile in 8th grade Indonesian EFL textbooks published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education in 2022 through a corpus-based approach. The study is aimed to draw a vocabulary profile of high-, mid- and low-frequency based category of vocabulary levels. In addition, the research also reports the estimated number of vocabulary size required to promote an adequate reading comprehension, where 95% and 98% coverage are regarded as the threshold. The textbook examined was obtained from the Indonesian Book Information System and prepared as analyzable corpora. The corpora consist of 27188 tokens is analyzed using Range program to obtain preliminary data analysis. The first research question revealed that the textbook contains approximately 85% of high-frequency words, followed by 7% and 0.3% of mid- and low- frequency words respectively. The second research question showed that in order to reach reading comprehension threshold of 95%, the learners need the knowledge of 3000 word-families, and additional one-thousand-word families to reach 98% of text coverage. At the end, the findings of this study suggest pedagogical implication for teachers, practical implication for textbook authors, and basis for subsequent research.

Abstract

This study examines the role of Maluku local wisdom, specifically "Kalesang" values, in enhancing students' descriptive writing competence through the FRESH technique among introverted and extroverted learners. This research aims to develop a culturally responsive and personality-sensitive pedagogy that integrates linguistic skills, cultural identity, and individual learning styles. Hence, this qualitative case study enlisted eight ninth-grade students from a junior high school in Masohi, Maluku, Indonesia. The data were collected through students’ writing products, in-depth interviews, and classroom observations. Afterward, the data were analyzed using a thematic analysis through the theoretical lens of sociocultural theory, differentiated instruction, and multiple intelligences theory. The results indicate that combining structured writing strategies with local values enhances coherence and elaboration in student texts, while also deepening cultural awareness and learner motivation. This study contributes to language education research by offering a replicable model for integrating indigenous knowledge with evidence-based pedagogy, promoting inclusive and meaningful learning in diverse EFL classrooms.

Abstract

Despite growing recognition of the limitations of native-speakerism in English language education, Indonesian schools continue to grapple with it. This study investigates Indonesian schools’ perspectives on recruiting English teachers, specifically examining attitudes toward Native English-Speaking Teachers (NESTs) and Non-Native English-Speaking Teachers (NNESTs). Using a survey administered to 73 Indonesian school administrators, the research explored perceptions of teaching abilities, the capacity to address student learning difficulties, and departmental preferences regarding NESTs versus NNESTs. Respondents rated their agreement with Likert-scale statements concerning native and non-native speaker teaching abilities and recruitment preferences. The findings revealed that while NESTs were sometimes preferred, there was no consistent pattern of prioritizing them over qualified NNEST candidates, particularly within schools with an international curriculum. These findings contribute to ongoing discussions surrounding the phenomenon of native-speakerism within Indonesian English as a Foreign Language context. They highlight the complexities inherent in teacher recruitment practices and suggest that professional qualifications, rather than native-speaker status, should be the primary basis for teacher recruitment decisions, ultimately benefiting students through access to highly qualified educators regardless of their linguistic background.
