Abstract

This paper (1) explores learners’ initial perceptions of English, and (2) explains the development of the perceptions before coming to Kampung Inggris. This paper is based on ethnographic research using interpretivism as a paradigm to understand the learners’ perceptions. The research site was Kampung Inggris TulungRejo village, Pare, Kediri, East Java. The participants were the students in the village. The data were collected through interview. The data were analyzed using iterative model from Miles, Huberman and Saldana (2013). In this model, data condensation, data display and conclusion drawing/verification were used to analyze the data. In the data analysis process, multiple coding and categorizations were used to figure out patterns. The theoretical framework was used in data interpretation. This study found out that (1) the learners’ initial perception on English varied according to their experiences. Most of the perceptions before coming to Kampung Inggris were negative. These perception were affected by the learners’ learning process, the environment and the surrounding people. In the learners’ reality, English was viewed merely on its intrinsic feature. (2) The learners’ perception was developed due to their life experiences. After experiencing some turning points, they believed that English was important for their lives. This change of perception also changed their attitude and became their motivations in learning English in Kampung Inggris.

Abstract

Many teachers struggle to utilize technology to create interactive, creative, and innovative learning media. They often face challenges in selecting and using the wide variety of available learning tools, which leads them to rely on traditional methods such as textbooks. Additionally, the lack of skills in using technology-based media, such as infographics, hinders their ability to enhance the quality of teaching in line with the demands of the digital era. This study aims to describe the implementation of infographic training as an alternative learning media at SMPN Satap 2 Palangka Raya. The training was designed to enhance teachers' competencies in utilizing information technology, especially within the limitations of available resources. Using the Assets-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, the training leveraged existing facilities such as school laptops, smartphones, and premium Canva accounts. The training activities included an introduction to infographic design, hands-on practice with Canva, intensive mentoring, and an exhibition of participants' works. The results indicate that the training was conducted as planned with active teacher participation, despite technical challenges such as limited internet connectivity. This training also highlighted the importance of sustained support, such as providing adequate technological infrastructure by schools and local governments, to improve the effectiveness of similar programs in the future.

Abstract

Students often face difficulties in academic writing, especially in achieving grammatical accuracy, clear structure, and coherence. These challenges are more evident for Indonesian EFL learners, who have limited exposure to English and often struggle with grammar, vocabulary, and idea organization. With the advancement of technology, writing assistance tools such as Grammarly, DeepL, and QuillBot have emerged to help students improve their writing quality. The interviews were conducted in the Indonesian language and lasted approximately 15-20 minutes each for the participants. The collected data were analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) to identify recurring patterns and central themes related to students’ perceptions. Although the data were obtained through participants’ personal narratives, thematic analysis was chosen because the study focuses on perceptions rather than reconstructing life stories. The findings indicate that Grammarly is the most commonly used tool, followed by QuillBot and DeepL. Participants reported that these tools are beneficial for improving writing accuracy, saving time, boosting confidence, and reducing stress. However, the study is limited by its relatively small sample size and the reliance on self-reported experiences, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings.

Abstract

Penelitian kualitatif studi kasus ini mengkaji persepsi mahasiswa terhadap penggunaan film berbahasa Inggris untuk akuisisi kosakata. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur dengan empat mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris di Universitas Palangka Raya yang memiliki kebiasaan menonton film berbahasa Inggris. Data kemudian dianalisis secara tematik, yang menghasilkan lima tema utama: (1) pengalaman pertama dengan film fantasi berbahasa Inggris, (2) manfaat yang dirasakan, (3) efektivitas akuisisi kosakata, (4) teknik pembelajaran, dan (5) integrasi film ke dalam pendidikan formal. Temuan mengungkapkan bahwa film menyediakan input otentik dan multimodal yang mendukung pembelajaran kosakata, baik secara insidental maupun intensional. Keberhasilan pembelajar dipengaruhi oleh strategic engagement (keterlibatan strategis), seperti pencatatan, penggunaan kamus, penerjemah, dan refleksi. Durasi paparan terhadap bahasa juga menjadi faktor yang membedakan pembelajar pemula dini dan pemula terlambat. . Para partisipan menekankan bahwa bimbingan guru melalui kegiatan pre-, during-, dan post-viewing meningkatkan pemahaman, menopang (scaffold) akuisisi kosakata, serta mengatasi tantangan seperti dialog cepat atau subtitle yang tidak akurat. Studi ini memberikan bukti kualitatif yang mendukung Input Hypothesis Krashen dan Noticing Hypothesis Schmidt, dengan menunjukkan interaksi antara faktor kognitif dan afektif dalam pembelajaran berbasis film. Hasil ini menyoroti potensi pedagogis dari integrasi film berbahasa Inggris ke dalam pengajaran formal.Pendekatan yang terstruktur, menarik, dan berpusat pada pembelajar terbukti dapat mengoptimalkan penguasaan kosakata sekaligus menjaga motivasi dan paparan bahasa yang otentik. Untuk penelitian mendatang, disarankan menggunakan desain eksperimental atau longitudinal guna mengukur peningkatan yang terukur dan menyelidiki lebih lanjut mekanisme yang mendasari pembelajaran bahasa melalui media audiovisual. __________________________________________________________________________________________ This qualitative case study investigates students’ perceptions of using English-language films for vocabulary acquisition. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with four students from the English Education Study Program at the University of Palangka Raya who regularly watch English-language films. The data were then analysed thematically, resulting in five main themes: (1) first experiences with English fantasy films, (2) perceived benefits, (3) effectiveness of vocabulary acquisition, (4) learning techniques, and (5) integration of films into formal education. The findings reveal that films provide authentic and multimodal input that supports both incidental and intentional vocabulary learning. Learners’ success is influenced by strategic engagement, such as note-taking, dictionary use, translation, and reflection. The duration of language exposure also distinguishes early and late beginners. Participants emphasized that teacher guidance through pre-, during-, and post-viewing activities enhances comprehension, scaffolds vocabulary acquisition, and helps overcome challenges such as fast-paced dialogues or inaccurate subtitles. This study provides qualitative evidence supporting Krashen’s Input Hypothesis and Schmidt’s Noticing Hypothesis, demonstrating the interaction between cognitive and affective factors in film-based learning. The results highlight the pedagogical potential of integrating English-language films into formal instruction. A structured, engaging, and learner-cantered approach can optimize vocabulary mastery while maintaining motivation and exposure to authentic language. Future research is recommended to employ experimental or longitudinal designs to measure observable improvement and further explore the underlying mechanisms of language learning through audiovisual media.
