Abstract

Urban and rural contexts often present different challenges and dynamics in education. There is a gap in terms of infrastructure, resources, teacher training and student backgrounds between urban and rural schools. The research focuses on understanding the differences and similarities in teacher-student interactions between urban and rural schools in Pekalongan, Indonesia. The research uses a qualitative approach and employs the SETT framework proposed by Walsh (2006) for data analysis. Two schools, one from an urban setting and another from a rural setting in Pekalongan, were selected as the research settings. The findings indicate that all four classroom modes (managerial, material, skill and system, and classroom context) are present in both urban and rural school lesson. Teachers in both settings engage in various interactional features. However, the use of interactional features in urban school needs to be improve to enhance student engagement. The study's significance lies in providing valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and curriculum developers in Pekalongan and similar settings. It highlights the importance of teacher-student interactions in improving English language learning experiences and outcomes for students. By addressing the disparities in education quality between urban and rural contexts, this research can contribute to enhancing the overall quality of education in both settings. In summary, this research sheds light on the crucial role of teacher-student interactions in urban and rural schools, offering a pathway to address educational disparities and improve learning experiences for students in Pekalongan and similar environments.

Abstract

The tourism industry requires every worker to have proficient English skills appropriate to their position. However, until now, tourism industry stakeholders still question the low communicative skills of tourism vocational school graduates in English. The study aims to critically evaluate the English language teaching materials used in tourism vocational high schools to analyze their suitability to student needs and the demands of the tourism industry. Using a retrospective evaluation methodology, data was carefully collected through documentation and interviews. Documentation is carried out to collect teaching materials used by schools, while interviews collect data regarding teachers' perceptions of these teaching materials. Qualitative data analysis was carried out using an interactive data analysis model. This research shows that although the material provided aligns with the national curriculum and focuses on everyday English communicative skills, the material still does not meet the particular needs of students preparing themselves for a career in the tourism sector. Teachers are aware of the significant gap between the general English skills taught and the specific English required of students. This study provides a basis for revising teaching materials to bridge this gap and ensure that they meet both general educational goals and the specific communicative demands of the tourism industry.

Abstract

This study examines how English for Sharia Purposes can serve as a pedagogical platform for cultivating tolerance and interfaith competence among Muslim law students in Indonesia’s plural legal order, where state law interacts with Sharia-based norms and diverse religious communities. Conducted at Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Salatiga within the Constitutional Law study program of the Faculty of Sharia, the research responds to institutional commitments to Islamic moderation and global engagement. While English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in Sharia faculties has traditionally emphasized linguistic proficiency, limited attention has been given to its potential for preparing future Sharia lawyers to navigate socio-legal challenges involving religious rights, minority protections, and interreligious dispute resolution. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with lecturers and students, and document analysis of teaching materials and institutional policy statements. Findings show that debates on minority rights, interfaith-mediation role-plays, and analysis of constitutional and international human-rights texts did more than improve students’ legal English; they fostered professional dispositions of fairness, empathy, and rights-aware reasoning grounded in Sharia principles of ʿadl (justice), tasāmuh (tolerance), and wasatiyyah (moderation). Student reflections suggested movement from “othering” to recognizing non-Muslims as equal subjects of justice, consistent with intercultural sensitivity and interfaith competence models. The study contributes to interfaith law and society by demonstrating how discipline-specific language education can serve as a socio-legal formation, translating interfaith ethics into practical legal communication skills for plural, rights-based contexts.

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 investigates the application of reflective practice in English language teaching in Indonesia by analyzing the perceptions of in-service and pre-service teachers. Data were collected through an online survey of 31 respondents across educational levels. Results indicate that reflective practice is widely regarded as essential for the ongoing evaluation and improvement of teaching strategies. Academic literature emerged as the primary source of insight, supplemented by training, personal experience, and peer discussions. Teachers reported varying frequencies of reflection, with most engaging occasionally, while time constraints, limited training, and challenges in assessing impact hinder consistent implementation. Drawing on Schön’s (1983) concepts of reflection-in-action and reflection-on-action, the study highlights the need to embed reflective practice more systematically within curriculum design and professional development programs. The findings underscore the importance of longitudinal research to further examine how reflective strategies can be sustained and institutionalized in teacher education.

Abstract

In the linguistically varied environment of foreign cruise ships, strategic English use as a lingua franca determines how well multinational crews communicate. This study examines challenges, interference, and coping strategies in English communication in a multilingual context of Balinese cruise ship crew members who have spent more than ten years working for an international cruise company. The data of the study were collected using in-depth semi-structured interviews with nine deliberately selected participants. The collected data were analyzed using thematic analysis to examine their communication challenges, inferences, and copings strategies they develop in response to English communication-related issues. Results reveal the challenges that the Balinese cruise ship crew members faced were the variety of the English pronunciation and accent of the speakers from Japan, India, Russia, and China. In terms of interferences, The Balinese crew members’ English exhibited structural errors influenced by interference from Balinese and Indonesian. These errors, shaped by differences in their native languages, included issues with article usage, verb conjugation, and sentence construction. The This study also confirmed that Balinese cruise ship crew members demonstrated a range of adaptive strategies and coping methods to manage these challenges. In situations where verbal understanding was lacking, they primarily relied on context, nonverbal cues, and interpreting the situation to grasp meaning. To enhance clarity, particularly during guest interactions, they also employed techniques such as rephrasing, repeating information, and simplifying their language. These results highlight the resiliency and adaptability of Balinese cruise ship crew members and provide an understanding of English as a working language in international cruise ship professional environments.
