Abstract

Literasi bahasa Inggris merupakan salah satu kompetensi penting yang perlu dikembangkan sejak usia sekolah dasar untuk mendukung kemampuan komunikasi dan kesiapan peserta didik menghadapi perkembangan global. Namun, anak-anak di wilayah pedesaan umumnya masih menghadapi berbagai kendala dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris, seperti keterbatasan kosakata, rendahnya motivasi belajar, serta minimnya akses terhadap kegiatan pembelajaran yang menarik dan interaktif. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan program pembelajaran yang mampu menciptakan suasana belajar yang menyenangkan sekaligus efektif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan bahasa Inggris dasar. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan literasi bahasa Inggris anak sekolah dasar melalui Program English Fun Literacy berbasis songs and games. Program dilaksanakan selama satu hari pada anak-anak usia sekolah dasar di desa lokasi Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) kelurahan Air Kati dengan jumlah peserta kurang dari 20 orang. Metode pelaksanaan menggunakan pendekatan partisipatif yang meliputi tahap persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi. Materi pembelajaran difokuskan pada pengenalan kosakata dasar bahasa Inggris yang dekat dengan kehidupan sehari-hari, seperti angka, warna, hewan, buah-buahan, anggota tubuh, dan benda-benda di lingkungan sekitar. Pembelajaran dilakukan melalui kegiatan bernyanyi, permainan edukatif, kuis kelompok, serta praktik penggunaan kosakata secara sederhana. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kemampuan peserta dalam mengenali, mengingat, dan mengucapkan kosakata bahasa Inggris. Selain itu, peserta menunjukkan peningkatan motivasi belajar, keaktifan selama kegiatan, serta keberanian dalam menggunakan kosakata yang telah dipelajari. Aktivitas songs and games terbukti mampu menciptakan suasana belajar yang menyenangkan sehingga peserta lebih mudah memahami dan mengingat materi pembelajaran. Program English Fun Literacy dapat menjadi salah satu alternatif kegiatan pengabdian yang efektif dalam mendukung peningkatan literasi bahasa Inggris anak sekolah dasar di lingkungan masyarakat.

Abstract

The present study aimed to explore the multifaceted challenges encountered by undergraduate students in an Indonesian EFL context. This study employed a explanatory sequenced mixed-methods design involving 80 undergraduate students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas PGRI Silampari. Data were collected through close-ended and open-ended questionnaires as well as semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that students encountered four major categories of challenges. Linguistic difficulties, particularly limited vocabulary, grammatical inaccuracies, and first language interference, were the most frequently reported barriers. Cognitive challenges included difficulties in generating ideas, organizing arguments, and maintaining coherence and cohesion in academic writing. Affective factors, such as writing anxiety, fear of negative evaluation, low self-confidence, and perfectionism, further hindered students' writing performance. In addition, institutional factors, including inconsistent feedback, limited writing practice, inadequate learning resources, and time constraints, contributed to students' writing difficulties. These findings suggest that English academic writing instruction should move beyond a sole emphasis on language accuracy by integrating strategy-based writing instruction, process-oriented pedagogy, emotional support, and sustained opportunities for authentic writing practice. The study contributes to the growing body of EFL writing research by providing a holistic understanding of students' writing challenges and offering pedagogical insights for developing more responsive and learner-centered writing instruction in Indonesian higher education. Keywords: English academic writing, EFL university students, writing challenges
