Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Read–Cover–Remember–Retell (RCRR) technique in enhancing EFL learners’ reading comprehension of narrative texts in a junior high school context. The research was conducted with ninth-grade students of SMP Negeri 15 Palu using a quasi-experimental design involving two intact classes. One class was assigned as the experimental group, taught using the RCRR technique, while the other served as the control group and received conventional reading instruction. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test reading comprehension assessments consisting of multiple-choice items that measured students’ ability to identify main ideas, supporting details, vocabulary meaning, and inferences. Descriptive statistics were used to examine students’ initial and final performance, and an independent samples t-test was employed to determine the significance of differences between the two groups. The results showed that the experimental group’s mean post-test score increased substantially compared to its pre-test score and outperformed the control group, which demonstrated only modest improvement. The statistical analysis confirmed that the difference between the post-test scores of both groups was significant, indicating that the RCRR technique had a positive impact on students’ reading comprehension. The findings suggest that the structured stages of RCRR promote active engagement, deeper processing of textual information, and better recall, making reading a more interactive and meaningful activity. This study concludes that RCRR is an effective and practical strategy for improving reading comprehension in EFL classrooms and offers pedagogical implications for teachers seeking student-centered approaches aligned with curriculum demands.

Abstract

The rapid growth of digital media in education has placed TikTok as a potential multimodal platform to support writing instruction. This study examined the integration of TikTok videos with narrative text outlines in enhancing EFL students’ writing skills and their perception of this instructional framework. A pre-experimental design involving a one-group pre-test, post-test, and a descriptive survey was employed, involving 32 students of the English Education Program who programmed a Text Type Writing Course. Writing narrative tests and a Likert scale questionnaire were the instruments of this research. The test data were analysed using the non-parametric Wilcoxon, and questionnaire data using descriptive statistical analysis. The statistical results showed that the mean score of the post-test (77.29) was higher than the pre-test (45.22). A Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test further demonstrated a statistically significant increase in students’ writing skill, which an Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) is less than the 0.05 significance level, confirming the effectiveness of the instructional intervention. These were also reinforced by survey findings that the instruction framework enabled the students to generate and organise their ideas grammatically, chronologically, and also stimulated their creativity in composing narrative texts. In addition, the survey also revealed that the students experienced positive emotions, increased motivation, and gained meaningful learning experiences. Overall, this pedagogical integration enhanced writing achievement, affective engagement, and simultaneously elevated students’ digital literacy and 21st century skills. This study contributes to a practical and innovative framework for English as a foreign language (EFL) writing pedagogy and develops a theoretical perspective on multimodal literacy.

Abstract

The enhancement of teachers’ competence and performance has been a primary objective of Indonesia’s teacher certification program (PPG). This study aimed to describe and interpret certified teachers’ professional competencies as reflected in their classroom practices and teaching performance. Employing an explanatory mixed-method design, the study integrated qualitative interviews to explain specific trends identified in the quantitative phase. Data were collected from 15 certified English teachers enrolled in the 2021 PPG program at Tadulako University, selected through purposive sampling. The instruments used to collect data were questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The data collected from this study were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The questionnaire data were processed and statistically analyzed, while the interview data were analyzed qualitatively. Based on the data analysis, the participating teachers perceived themselves as having pedagogical, personal, social, and professional competencies and had implemented them in the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, in terms of teacher performance – including lesson planning, teaching implementation, learning evaluation, and task discipline – the teachers could be considered competent.

Abstract

Despite several researches have been conducted to investigate the issue of code-switching, the findings of this research are significant as they can assist both teachers and students to consider the use of code-switching in EFL classroom, specifically in Indonesia. This research sought to investigate not only the teachers’ perceptions but also the students’ attitudes and perceptions towards the use of code-switching in EFL classroom. This research employed mixed methods research (explanatory sequential design). The participants were two teachers and forty students. Data collection instruments were the questionnaire and semi-structured interview. Findings from the teachers’ interview showed that the teachers use code-switching for certain situations and specific reasons. They emphasized that it is important to speak English as much as possible in EFL classroom because the target language is English. Furthermore, findings from the students’ questionnaire and semi-structured interview showed that most of the students have positive attitudes and perceptions towards the use of code-switching in EFL classroom. They assumed that the teacher should be allowed to use code-switching in EFL classroom since it is used for assisting students and maintaining a good communication between teacher and students.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the use of mind mapping as a teaching technique to enhance students’ writing skills in descriptive text. Using a qualitative library research approach, data were gathered from secondary sources, including theses, journals, and articles published between 2012 and 2024. The analysis focused on identifying teaching procedures, outcomes, and effectiveness across five selected studies. The findings indicate that mind mapping significantly improves students’ ability to generate, organize, and connect ideas, resulting in more coherent and creative descriptive texts. It also enhances vocabulary, grammar, and students’ motivation to write. Across the reviewed studies, post-test scores consistently showed substantial improvement, demonstrating the technique’s effectiveness in both secondary and tertiary educational contexts. Mind mapping’s use of colors, images, and keywords makes the writing process more engaging and accessible, supporting active learning and critical thinking. Based on these findings, the study recommends that English teachers adopt mind mapping as a strategy to improve descriptive writing skills and suggests further exploration of its application to other genres of writing.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of contextual video in improving eleventh-grade students’ ability to write descriptive texts at MAN 2 Kota Palu. A quasi-experimental design was employed involving an experimental class taught using contextual video and a control class receiving conventional instruction. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test writing tasks and analyzed using the Mann–Whitney U test. The pre-test results showed no significant difference between the groups (Sig. = 0.836 > 0.05), whereas the post-test results indicated a significant difference (Sig. = 0.004 < 0.05), with the experimental group achieving higher scores. The findings demonstrate that contextual video effectively improves students’ descriptive writing ability. This study extends previous research by explaining that contextual video supports descriptive writing through the integration of meaningful visual and verbal information, consistent with Multimedia Learning Theory. The findings provide practical and theoretical contributions to multimedia-based writing instruction in EFL classrooms.

Abstract

This study explored the role of social media in enhancing EFL students’ vocabulary development at Tadulako University. It addressed the limited research on students’ experiences using social media for vocabulary learning in the Indonesian university context. A qualitative descriptive design was employed involving three students from the English Education Study Program. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that platforms such as Instagram and TikTok supported vocabulary development by providing authentic language exposure through videos, captions, comments, and online interactions. Students also benefited from contextual learning, repeated exposure, multimedia content, and social interaction, which increased their motivation and engagement in learning English vocabulary. Nevertheless, they encountered several challenges, including fast speech, slang expressions, distractions, and limited subtitle availability. Overall, social media functioned as an effective informal digital learning environment that facilitated vocabulary acquisition beyond the classroom. These findings suggest that educators should integrate social media into vocabulary instruction to complement formal learning while guiding students in overcoming potential challenges and maximizing its educational benefits.

Abstract

Purpose – Students' writing and 4C skills (critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity) remain underdeveloped. This is due to the limited use of innovative learning models and formative assessment—an educational process providing feedback during learning—in classrooms. This research examined whether integrating problem-based learning (PBL), an approach using real-world problems, with formative assessment can improve students’ writing. The study also explored how this integration affects their writing and 4C skills.Methodology – The study used a mixed-methods approach with an explanatory sequential design. The sample included fourth-semester students from the Writing in Professional Context course, specifically Class B. Researchers collected performance assessments and interviews and analyzed the data using both quantitative and qualitative methods.Findings – Quantitative results showed that integrating PBL and formative assessment significantly improved students’ writing skills. Qualitative results indicated that this integration also improved writing structure, coherence, diction, and argument development. The integration enhanced writing performance and fostered 4C skills (critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity).Contribution – This research advances writing pedagogy and 21st-century skills by guiding educators to adopt innovative, student-centered learning practices.
