Abstract

This study aims to explore teachers' perceptions of challenges in the learning process for deaf students at SLB PGRI Kamal, Bangkalan. With a descriptive qualitative approach, data is collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study show that teachers face challenges in the form of students' difficulties in understanding instruction, limited communication, and lack of pedagogical competence of teachers in special education. In response, teachers apply adaptive strategies such as the use of sign language, visual media, simplification of materials, and an individualized approach. The support of the school environment, such as conducive learning spaces and cooperation between teachers, also strengthens the effectiveness of learning. Teachers consider learning to be quite effective, especially for students who get emotional support and visual learning. This study recommends continuous training for teachers and strengthening cooperation between schools and parents to improve the quality of education for deaf students.

Abstract

This study investigates the perceived benefits of Digital Storytelling (DST) as an instructional approach aimed at developing speaking-related competencies among highly motivated English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners in an Islamic private university in Central Java, Indonesia, where the majority of academics are Muslims. Implementing a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the research combines quantitative observations of learners’ speaking activities with qualitative insights into their experiences and reflections. While the data indicate improvements in certain aspects of speaking, particularly in areas such as confidence, engagement, and idea formulation, the findings are interpreted cautiously due to the small sample size and specific contextual factors. Students reported that DST activities enhanced their motivation, reduced their anxiety, and provided them with greater autonomy in expressing themselves orally. Rather than positioning DST as a panacea for speaking fluency, the study suggests that it may serve as a complementary pedagogical tool that supports affective and cognitive dimensions of oral language learning in culturally specific EFL contexts.

Abstract

This study investigated the pre-service teachers’ perceptions on the use of digital storytelling as their future teaching strategy. The case study was chosen as the approach, and 28 pre-service English teachers were recruited as participants. The questionnaires and observations were used as the data analyzed using Nvivo. This finding showed that pre-service teachers agreed to adopt digital storytelling as their future teaching strategy.  When digital storytelling is embedded in collaborative activities, it helps students improve their digital literacy. It also enables them to enhance their vocabulary enrichment and speaking competence in particular. They also claimed that digital storytelling gives nuance to teaching strategy because it is practical, interesting, and fun. In addition to its benefits, digital storytelling poses issues that must be overcome, such as users' capacity to master technology and express their creative imagination without limitations. This study suggests that digital storytelling can be an innovative teaching strategy.

Abstract

Speaking fluency and confidence remain a persistent challenge for Indonesian EFL learners, especially at low motivation and high language anxiety. Classroom strategies of the traditional type that pay attention to grammar accuracy can scarcely help students engage in genuine oral communication. This study investigated whether digital storytelling (DST) could be beneficial for low-motivated undergraduates in improving their speaking fluency and confidence. Defensible based on both Constructivist Learning Theory and Self-Determination Theory, the sample of the study was 19 participants of a private college in Central Java, Indonesia, who received a one-group pre-test–post-test. Across 6 weeks, students participated in DST processes such as script writing, voice recording, multimedia editing, and peer work. Data were obtained by speaking performance rubrics and a 5-point Likert scale on speaking confidence. It was found that the responses to both fluency (mean gain of 0.70) and confidence (mean gain of 1.06) were significantly improved with statistical significance (p < 0.001). The findings suggest that DST offers learners a safe, emotionally involving space to work on oral communication and to appropriate and internalize (subconsciously or reflexively) autonomy, emotional ownership, and motivational mechanisms. This research joins the rising volumes of work on digital pedagogy in EFL, focusing on the potential of DST for students who are hesitant to speak. Pedagogical implications for speaking, teaching, and technology use are then provided.
