Abstract

Students’ English narrative-writing skills remain weak, yet writing competence is essential in today’s global context. This study investigated the effectiveness of the Dictogloss technique for improving students’ narrative writing through a mixed-method classroom action research design involving eleventh-grade students at SMK N 1 Tanjung Selor. Data were gathered from observations, students’ worksheets, and writing tests, and analyzed using direct observation notes, self-assessment, and an analytical writing rubric. Findings revealed consistent gains across the five key aspects of writing—content, organization, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics. From the pre-test to Cycle 1 and Cycle 2, students’ average scores steadily increased, and by the second cycle 34 students (91.2 %) surpassed the passing mark of 75, demonstrating a substantial improvement in overall writing performance. These results confirm the strong positive impact of the Dictogloss method on students’ narrative-writing ability. Pedagogically, teachers are encouraged to integrate Dictogloss as a regular classroom practice by providing structured note-taking activities, guiding pair or group reconstruction of texts, and offering focused feedback on content development, text structure, and precise vocabulary use. Such targeted strategies help students strengthen listening, collaborative, and writing skills simultaneously, ensuring more meaningful engagement and measurable progress in narrative writing. Overall, the research underscores Dictogloss as an integrative method that enhances not only writing accuracy but also collaboration and higher-order thinking skills highly relevant for vocational students preparing for the demands of a global workforce. The implication of the study is that students are encouraged to actively engage in the Dictogloss activities, as these activities help improve writing by developing listening, note-taking, and collaborative skills. It is important to focus on the text's content, structure, and vocabulary when working in pairs, as this will enhance their writing skills.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the target needs and learning needs of the EFL students of Fifth-Grade Elementary Students in Yogyakarta. The innovation of this research lies in employing survey questionnaire, interview, and observation to provide an in-depth analysis regarding vocabulary learning among elementary EFL students. The participants in the study are 29 students and 2 teachers. Employing explanatory sequential design, the data collected were analyzed using descriptive quantitative and thematic qualitative methods to better understand the results and draw meaningful conclusions about the student’s learning preferences. The findings indicate that the students find it difficult to acquire new English vocabulary and tend to ask their teachers what the words’ meanings are. The survey questionnaire revealed that the students prefer pair or group activities rather than individual activities indicating a preference for peer support in the learning process. They like to visualize learning by using pictures, videos, and flashcards as it helps them to memorize new vocabulary. From the interview with the teachers, it became evident that there is a need for supplementary instructional materials that incorporate group work, engaging learning media, and the use of Information Communication and Technology (ICT) to enhance students’ vocabulary mastery. In conclusion, the study recommends a student-centered approach by combining group work and interesting learning media to enrich students’ vocabulary acquisition.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance students' writing skills through collaborative writing at a Senior High School and determine their preference between collaborative writing in pairs or groups. The study discovered that students lacked enthusiasm in completing the writing work, which caused poor motivation and challenges in formulating ideas. This study employed a classroom action research (CAR) methodology and consisted of two cycles. The data were collected through observations of the teaching and learning process, interviews with students, and conducting writing assessments. The research findings indicated that engaging in collaborative writing increased students' interest in writing activities due to the opportunity for interaction with their peers. Collaborative writing facilitated the creation of ideas by allowing each group member to contribute, resulting in a diverse range of thoughts. The successful implementation of collaborative writing was complemented by the implementation of group work. It was also shown that students prefer collaborating more in group tasks than working in pairs. The researcher discovered an enhancement in the students' writing scores.

Abstract

Foreign language anxiety significantly impedes English learning, particularly in under-resourced rural schools where students face limited exposure and inadequate learning resources. This study examined the nature and sources of English learning anxiety among junior high school students in a remote Indonesian school. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was employed with 36 eighth and ninth-grade students. Quantitative data were collected using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) to measure anxiety levels, while qualitative data from semi-structured interviews with 18 high-anxiety students and two teachers, combined with classroom observations, explored anxiety sources. The mean State Anxiety score of 69.5 indicated moderately high to high anxiety levels, particularly during speaking activities. Strong negative correlations emerged between anxiety and self-confidence (r = -0.866, p < 0.001). Thematic analysis identified three primary anxiety sources: fear of negative peer evaluation, insufficient preparation time, and perceived low ability relative to classmates. Both state and trait anxiety significantly impeded students' English engagement across contexts. Findings support Krashen's Affective Filter Hypothesis while extending it by demonstrating how both state and trait anxiety dimensions contribute to emotional barriers in language acquisition. Contextual factors specific to rural, under-resourced settings amplified anxiety beyond levels observed in advantaged environments. Results suggest anxiety reduction requires supportive classroom atmospheres, cooperative learning with adequate preparation, and explicit peer norms prohibiting ridicule.
