Abstract

Listening is one of the essential skills in learning English; however, many students still experience difficulties in listening comprehension. This study aimed to analyze the listening difficulties experienced by students at SMA Negeri 1 Limboto, focusing on three aspects: speech rate, vocabulary, and pronunciation. A qualitative approach was employed involving 21 students of Class X-1 as the research participants. Data were collected through interviews and analyzed using the thematic analysis framework proposed by Braun and Clarke (2006) which consists of six stages: familiarizing with the data, generating initial codes, searching for themes, reviewing themes, defining and naming themes, and producing the report. The findings revealed that students experienced difficulties related to speech rate, limited vocabulary, and pronunciation. In addition, they encountered challenges in maintaining concentration, understanding unfamiliar words, and distinguishing between spoken and written forms of words. The findings indicate that speech rate, vocabulary, and pronunciation are the primary factors influencing students' listening comprehension. These results are expected to provide insights for English teachers in developing more effective listening instruction that addresses students' learning needs.

Abstract

This study developed and validated a Metacognitive Strategy-Based Formative Assessment Model (MSI Model) for the Listening for Professional Context course at the English Education Study Program, Universitas Negeri Gorontalo. Employing Plomp’s Educational Design Research framework, the study addressed three research questions: (1) the current state of listening assessment practices, (2) the design of the MSI model and its integrated instruments, and (3) the content and construct validity of the model as evaluated by expert panels. Needs analysis data were gathered through document analysis of course syllabi and existing assessment instruments, semi-structured interviews with four lecturers, and questionnaires distributed to 40 students. The MSI model integrates a three-layered framework linking Planning, Monitoring,Evaluating (PME) metacognitive strategies with four formative assessment instruments: a PME metacognitive reflection rubric, a self-assessment checklist, a peer-assessment form, and a structured feedback protocol. Expert validation involving three specialists in educational methodology, language assessment, and EFL listening yielded a mean Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.91 and Aiken’s V of 0.89, indicating strong content and construct validity. Qualitative feedback from experts highlighted the model’s conceptual coherence, and theoretical alignment. These findings indicate that the MSI model provides a theoretically grounded and expert-validated formative assessment framework for supporting metacognitive strategy integration in university-level EFL listening.

Abstract

Improving education quality for the 21st century necessitates a strong focus on English Reading Comprehension for Academic Purposes (REAP), particularly in higher education. This competency is essential for enabling students to engage with global information and meet the demands of a competitive, interconnected world. Therefore, enhancing reading comprehension in English is vital, especially by employing a strategy that is innovative, creative, and effective. The Case Method Strategy, rooted in Problem-Based Learning (PBL), is identified as one of the most effective approaches to elevate REAP competencies. This strategy fosters creative thinking, inquiry-based learning, and problem-solving skills, allowing students to analyze academic texts critically. Within the REAP course framework, which aligns with Outcome-Based Education (OBE), the objective is for students to develop metacognitive abilities to interpret complex academic texts at an advanced level. To support the Case Method Strategy, complementary techniques, such as Inquiry Method and Discovery Learning, can be integrated into REAP learning. This study aims to present a comprehensive model for implementing the Case Method Strategy to improve REAP outcomes. Ultimately, the findings contribute valuable insights to English Language Teaching (ELT) by offering an effective, alternative teaching technique that enhances applied linguistics and reading comprehension in university-level education.

Abstract

The increasing demand for technology-enhanced instruction in English Language Teaching (ELT) highlights the importance of developing strong digital competence among pre-service teachers, especially in designing interactive learning media. This study aimed to examine how pre-service English language teachers perceived their digital competence in developing interactive learning media during the Field Experience Program (PPL). Consists of 10 participants from the ELESP 2022 cohort at Universitas Negeri Gorontalo. Guided by the DigCompEdu framework, the research focused on three domains closely related to media production and pedagogical application: Digital Resources, Teaching and Learning, and Empowering Learners. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and were analyzed thematically. The findings show that participants possessed fundamental operational skills in using tools such as Canva, PowerPoint, Wordwall, and Baamboozle to create multimodal and gamified activities that enhanced student engagement and comprehension. However, they reported limited expertise in advanced media design, contextual adaptation, and facilitating collaborative digital learning. Challenges were linked to insufficient practical training during coursework, unstable internet access, limited school devices, and dependence on free templates. Despite these constraints, participants expressed strong motivation to improve their digital teaching competence. The study highlights the need for teacher education programs to reinforce experiential digital pedagogy through hands-on workshops and project-based media development to better prepare pre-service teachers for designing inclusive and effective technology-integrated learning environments.
