This study aims to identify the difficulties experienced by grade VIII students in using webtoon apps to teach writing skills, as well as formulate effective learning strategies to overcome these difficulties. Qualitative research methodology was used, utilizing interviews, observations, and surveys to gather detailed insights from students at SMPN 1 Klampis. The results showed that students enjoy Webtoon apps but often experience difficulties such as generating ideas and organizing their writing effectively. Many students expressed feelings of frustration and anxiety when faced with writing tasks, which affected their overall motivation. These findings highlight the need for instructional strategies that can address these specific challenges. In conclusion, although Webtoon apps have the potential to improve writing skills, targeted support is essential to overcome the identified difficulties. Recommendations include providing structured guidance and focused writing exercises. In addition, training for teachers on how to effectively implement Webtoon in the classroom could further assist students in overcoming their writing challenges.

This study explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based tools in supporting university students’ development of argumentative writing skills in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. Writing an argumentative text requires students to construct clear thesis statements, justify arguments with credible evidence, and ensure logical coherence throughout the text. A qualitative descriptive design was employed involving undergraduate EFL students who utilized AI-supported applications, such as AI writing assistants and automated feedback tools, during a series of writing activities. Data were gathered through students’ written products, classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews. The results show that the use of AI-based tools enhances students’ accuracy, idea organization, and lexical choices, particularly in improving their argument clarity and cohesion. However, the findings also reveal students’ dependency on AI suggestions, indicating the need for critical awareness in using AI responsibly. The study concludes that AI-based tools can serve as effective learning support when used under guided instruction, promoting students’ argumentative writing competence and autonomy.

This study aims to explore the impact of the in-service Teacher Professional Education (PPG) Program on improving the pedagogical competence of English teachers at the elementary school level, specifically within the context of the Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) approach. With the policy establishing English as a compulsory subject in elementary schools under the 2024 Curriculum, which will be implemented simultaneously in 2027, the need for teachers with pedagogical competence appropriate to the characteristics of early childhood learners is becoming increasingly urgent. This study employed a qualitative approach. The first stage involved a survey of 25 elementary school English teachers to obtain an overview of their professional development practices. The survey results then served as the basis for selecting three case study participants for further research through classroom observations and in-depth interviews. The research results indicate that most teachers have participated in various forms of ongoing professional development, including formal training, teacher learning communities, webinars, and digital technology-based independent learning. The PPG program significantly contributed to improving teachers' understanding of lesson planning, authentic assessment, learning differentiation, and the implementation of learner-centered learning approaches. Furthermore, teachers who participated in PPG demonstrated improved skills in integrating TEYL principles, such as the use of communicative activities, educational games, songs, visual media, and contextual learning appropriate to the characteristics of elementary school students. However, this study also identified several challenges, including limited experience teaching English in elementary schools, a lack of appropriate learning resources, and the need for ongoing post-PPG mentoring to ensure the implementation of acquired competencies in teaching practice. This research provides recommendations for policymakers to strengthen the design of elementary school English teacher training through more explicit integration of pedagogical competencies and TEYL principles within the PPG program.

Reading is a fundamental skill for young English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners, yet fifth-grade students at UPTD SDN Jaddih 03 still face difficulty comprehending English texts because of limited vocabulary and ineffective reading strategies. Previous studies have shown that the Literacy Tree, a tree-shaped visual medium that displays vocabulary, sentences, or short texts on its leaves, can make reading more engaging, but its specific effect on the reading skill of Indonesian elementary school students in a rural context has rarely been examined. This study aimed to determine and explain the influence of Literacy Tree media on the reading skill of Jaddih 3 Elementary School students. A quantitative experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest model was employed. The sample consisted of 24 fifth-grade students chosen through simple random sampling from a population of 237 students. Data were gathered through a 20-item multiple-choice reading test, analyzed using validity testing, reliability testing (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.959), a normality test, and a paired sample t-test with IBM SPSS 21.0. All 20 items were valid, the data were normally distributed (Sig. = 0.817 > 0.05), and the mean score rose from 52.08 in the pretest to 81.46 in the posttest with a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05). These results indicate that Literacy Tree media has a significant effect on students' reading skill and also increases their enthusiasm during learning. Teachers are therefore encouraged to use interactive, visual media such as the Literacy Tree to support reading instruction in elementary classrooms.
