Abstract

The position of English in Indonesia as a foreign language requires teachers to be more creative in using the right approach in teaching EFL classes. One approach teachers widely apply is the CTL approach because it is considered by them to combine the four skills in English, namely listening, speaking, and reading. and writing. However, the application of the CLT approach depends more or less on the character of the class being taught and is influenced by several factors, including the geographical location of an area where Sebatik Island is geographically located on the border of Indonesia and Malaysia. It makes the application of the CLT approach may be different from other areas find borders with other countries. This research aims to qualitatively describe the implementation of the CLT approach in the classroom by English teachers on Sebatik Island and the challenges they face in implementing it. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach. Data collection methods were collected through observation, interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and triangulation involving four respondents from several junior high schools on Sebatik Island. The data collected was then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive analysis model consisting of three activity streams that co-occurred: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. From the data analysis using the model, the geographical location of Sebatik Island, which directly borders Malaysia, positively contributes to students' communication skills. However, the implementation of the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach by teachers on Sebatik Island is not free from several challenges, namely the lack of understanding among some teachers regarding the importance of this approach in learning English, the provision of supporting facilities, support from various parties including school principals and Government Agencies Education, as well as the political dynamics in the regions, which tend to be unproductive in developing teacher competency.

Abstract

This research aims to improve descriptive speaking skills by implementing project-based learning using flashcards and mind mapping. The main purpose of this research was to describe improving descriptive speaking skills by implementing Project-based learning using flashcards and mind mapping for Seventh Graders of SMP Negeri 2 Modung Bangkalan in The Academic Year 2022/2023. To know about it, the researcher used some instruments such as observation and tests. After analyzing the data and counting the scores of students’ skills in tests, the researcher found that there were significant differences before and after the treatment. It meant that there was improving descriptive speaking skills by implementing Project-based learning using flashcards and mind mapping. To support those results, the researcher used a t-test formula to count the test results. To start calculating the data, the researcher counted the mean and the standard deviation in every Pre-test and Post-test from the experimental class and control class. Then, the result was entered into the formula. The research counted the t-table by calculating df and determined the percentage of significance. After that, the result of the t-test is compared with t-table to answer the hypothesis.

Abstract

This research analyzes students' critical thinking when reading exposition texts. Conducted at the Health Department of SMKN 1 Tolitoli, this qualitative research utilized observations as the data collection method to gather data relevant for this research and thematic analysis to analyze the collected data. The observation phase analyzed students' engagement with analytical exposition texts, revealing proficiency in various aspects of critical thinking, including comprehension, analysis, and evaluation. Students demonstrated the ability to recall key facts, summarize main ideas, and critically evaluate evidence to form well-supported opinions. Students emphasized the importance of activities such as careful reading, summarization, and discussion in enhancing their understanding and critical thinking abilities. The findings suggest the need for explicit instruction and support for all stages of critical reading to foster students' holistic development of critical thinking skills. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of students' critical thinking practices and provides valuable insights for educators seeking to enhance students' critical reading abilities in the context of analytical exposition texts.

Abstract

Integrating Folklore in Modern Education: A Review of Interactive Materials and SDGs Alignment. Objectives: Integrating local culture through folklore is increasingly used to support next-generation learning competencies, here defined as learning performance, language/communication, cultural literacy, creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, ecoliteracy, and basic digital skills, while advancing SDG 4 (Quality Education), especially Target 4.7 on education for sustainable development and cultural diversity. Methods: The research employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) across Scopus, WoS, SINTA, ERIC, and Index Copernicus, using predefined inclusion criteria and quality appraisal. Findings: Across 35 studies, folklore-embedded interactive materials most consistently aligned with gains in learning performance and language/communication, with frequent co-benefits in cultural literacy and critical thinking when tasks were scaffolded through inquiry, story-based reflection, and locally meaningful problems. Evidence clusters were concentrated in Indonesia, which we interpret as a contextual pattern examined in the full paper and possibly reflecting glocalization in educational research ecosystems and/or national research policy incentives rather than a universal dominance. Conclusion: Taken together, the reviewed evidence supports a cautious, convergent claim: folklore-based interactive materials are associated with improvements in core competencies linked to SDG 4.1 (effective learning outcomes) and SDG 4.7 (cultural diversity and sustainable values), particularly when paired with teacher scaffolding and authentic tasks. The review contributes a mechanism-oriented synthesis: a “Folklore-as-Context” pathway (cultural familiarity → relevance → engagement → higher-order thinking) that specifies how and under what classroom conditions folklore supports 21st-century competencies, extending prior work that treated “local wisdom” and “innovation” only at a general level. Keywords: folklore, interactive learning materials, learning skills, systematic literature review.

Abstract

This study investigates the interplay between student attitudes toward English language learning, self-confidence, and motivation within an Indonesian EFL context, focusing on SMA Negeri 1 Patimuan. Grounded in a qualitative descriptive framework, the research seeks to elucidate how students’ perceived self-efficacy and intrinsic and extrinsic motivations influence English speaking achievement, as well as the psychosocial and contextual factors shaping their learning trajectories. Data were collected through a triangulated approach comprising classroom observations, in-depth interviews with students and English teachers, and supporting documentary evidence (e.g., rubrics and learning artifacts), enabling a rich description of the dynamic relationship between affective factors and speaking performance in real classroom settings. Preliminary analyses indicate that higher self-confidence is associated with greater willingness to participate in speaking activities and higher intrinsic motivation, while lower self-confidence coincides with anxiety, avoidance of speaking opportunities, and reduced motivation. The findings underscore the interdependence of affective constructs and suggest that instructional interventions promoting supportive classroom climates, collaborative speaking activities, and constructive feedback can enhance both motivation and speaking proficiency. The study contributes to the literature on language learning psychology in Indonesian EFL contexts and offers practical guidance for curriculum design, teacher professional development, and guidance services aimed at fostering sustained motivation and confidence in English speaking among high school students.
