Abstract

The primary objective of this research article is twofold: First, it examines the perspectives of Indonesian higher school students regarding the use of translanguaging both within and outside the classroom. Second, it analyzes the potential implications of translanguaging practices on their future careers. Adapting a nexus case-study framework, the study purposively selected five participants among 38 students who were pursuing a degree in economics at a private institution in Surabaya, Indonesia. The data were collected through classroom observations, participant reflections, and focus group discussions, then analyzed thematically to trace connections among historical bodies, interactional orders, and discourses in place. The findings reveal that the participants hold loose and gain viewpoints toward translanguaging. While the participants recognize the learning value of small group debates, they prefer to use only English during classroom lectures, reflected by the interplay between their linguistic histories, real-time classroom interactions, and broader societal ideologies monolingual space emerges when individuals conform to the ideals espoused by their social groupings. The participants’ alignment with monolingual norms is shaped by institutional expectations and imagined futures where English accuracy and fluency signals professionalism. Although translanguaging supports learning, they fear its overuse may constrain career advancement.  The consequences of these findings are further discussed in the closing portion of this work.

Abstract

Learner agency is a crucial factor enabling learners to make decisions and act upon them, thereby transforming their learning experiences. Identifying agency within the context of digital technology advancements, particularly through mobile-driven transmedia experiences, is essential. This study aims to examine the archetypes of learner agency in task-based activities conducted out of classroom activities. Previous research has predominantly focused on the utility of mobile devices within classroom settings, overlooking the potential benefits of agentive learning opportunities outside the classroom. This study employed a qualitative case study design grounded in Complex Dynamic System Theory (CDST) and tied to Retrodictive Qualitative Modelling (RQM) technique. Data were collected through task observations, Focus Group Interviews, and in-depth interviews. Thematic analysis was used to identify dynamic patterns and signatures related to learner agency and transmedia engagement across contexts. Thirty-five EFL learners participated in three sequential task activities using mobile phones both inside and outside the classroom. From this group, three participants were purposively selected for in-depth interviews to explore their significant experiences in completing the tasks. The findings reveal two primary types of learner agency: intentional and incidental. While intentional agency is limited by spatiotemporal constraints, incidental agency transcends these boundaries. The study's implications highlight the potential of transmedia to empower learner agency through mobile-driven technology, offering valuable insights that can enhance language teaching practices beyond traditional classroom settings.
