Reading ability is an important basic skill in the English language learning process. Reading not only helps students expand their vocabulary but also increases their understanding of language structures. However, many EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students still experience difficulties in effectively comprehending the content of reading passages, which impacts the development of their overall language skills.

Abstract

STEM education incorporates Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics into a single learning paradigm. Through investigation, experimentation, and design-based problem solving, this method helps students develop critical, creative, and collaborative thinking. STEM principles can be used in English Language Teaching as well as other fields. STEM can make language learning more relevant and practical while developing 21st-century abilities. This study examines the perspectives of teachers in public primary school of Dadapan, Malang, Indonesia  on integrating STEM into their English language teaching. It also analyzed their readiness to implement this approach. This study used qualitative descriptive design, where the researcher used a questionnaire, interview, and observation as the instruments to collect the data, and employed thematic analysis and triangulation for analysing the data. This study reveals that (1). The teachers have a strong understanding of the concept of STEM and believe that it is a valuable and effective method for teaching English. Moreover, it has a favorable impact on students' ground, engagement, and overall academic performance. (2). The majority of teachers demonstrate preparedness for this integration. However, they clearly indicated a significant need for increased cooperation among colleagues, more accessible resources and instructional materials, and continuous professional training. The findings of this study provide practical guidance for curriculum developers and teachers on how to effectively integrate STEM into English language lessons, especially in the elementary education level.

Abstract

Teacher feedback is one of the alternative ways to help students improve their writing performance. Few studies have confirmed students’ deep exploration of how students engage behaviourally with teacher feedback. Therefore, this study aims to find out the behavioural engagement of the students after receiving feedback as well as what factors influenced it. Case study design was applied in this study through delivering questionnaires and interviews. The participants of this study were the third-year university students in Malang, Indonesia. The finding of this study highlights that high-proficiency students tend to ask the teacher when they do not understand the feedback, while moderate- and low-proficiency levels tend to ask their friends. In addition, factors that influenced students’ behavioural engagement are internal factors such as self-efficiency and self-awareness and external factors such as the teacher’s way of teaching and internet connection. It is suggested that teachers should know their student’s behavioural engagement to gain learning outcomes.
