Instagram serves as an example of the most famous social media platforms. Instagram, particularly for the executives, can favorably relate connections among politicians, voters, and other supportive or contending parties. The current research aimed to analyze the form of social criticism delivered by netizens on the comments towards three Indonesian politicians' Instagram posts, namely Anies Baswedan, Ridwan Kamil, and Ganjar Pranowo, who have millions of followers putting concerns towards what they did on Instagram. Besides, the research also aimed to identify some pedagogical implications of Instagram on language learning. A qualitative approach was employed to uncover the three dimensions of the discourse: positivism-empiricists, constructivism, and critical into one analysis unit or social cognition. The research found that netizens' comments were in line with the status postings of each of the governor published on Instagram, focus on the three governors' performance during their tenure, and affected by the background of the supporting parties. This research supports the idea that Instagram is a viable means of language learning because it can provide a meaningful context to learn a language.

AbstractIndonesia has a been a testing-oriented country since its inception. Yet, over the past decade, assessment policies in Indonesia have gradually strengthened their emphasis on formative assessment. In general, Indonesian teachers’ understanding of formative assessment is still relatively modest; in fact, some teachers still consider formative assessment to be challenging, if not impossible. Nevertheless, others have embraced the concept and have managed to overcome the barriers of large classes, limited time, and the long-standing culture of high-stakes testing. This article aims to provide examples of good practice in formative assessment in ELT. We present the results of a multiple case study, involving eight ELT senior high school teachers representing various learning contexts in Indonesia. Drawing on data from interviews and classroom observations, the study revealed that these teachers recognized the barriers in implementing formative assessment deriving from limited time and large classes, yet they were able to overcome these barriers by using teaching modifications and technological tools as solutions to applying formative assessment. This study highlights the pivotal role of teachers’ assessment literacy to enhance and reap the benefits from formative assessment. AbstrakIndonesia telah menjadi negara yang berorientasi pada ujian sejak awal berdirinya. Tetapi, selama dekade terakhir, kebijakan penilaian di Indonesia secara bertahap semakin menekankan pada penilaian formatif. Secara umum, pemahaman guru-guru Indonesia tentang penilaian formatif masih relatif terbatas; faktanya, beberapa guru masih menganggap penilaian formatif sebagai hal yang menantang, bahkan tidak mungkin dilakukan. Meskipun demikian, beberapa guru telah menerima konsep ini dan berhasil mengatasi hambatan seperti kelas yang besar, waktu yang terbatas, dan budaya ujian berisiko tinggi yang telah berlangsung lama. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk memberikan contoh praktik baik dalam penilaian formatif dalam pengajaran Bahasa Inggris. Kami menyajikan hasil studi multi-kasus, yang melibatkan delapan guru Bahasa Inggris sekolah menengah atas yang mewakili berbagai konteks pembelajaran di Indonesia. Berdasarkan data dari wawancara dan observasi kelas, studi ini mengungkapkan bahwa para guru ini menyadari hambatan dalam menerapkan penilaian formatif yang berasal dari waktu yang terbatas dan kelas yang besar, namun mereka mampu mengatasi hambatan tersebut dengan menggunakan modifikasi pengajaran dan alat teknologi sebagai solusi untuk menerapkan penilaian formatif. Studi ini menyoroti peran penting literasi penilaian guru untuk meningkatkan dan memetik manfaat dari penilaian formatif. How to Cite: Defianty, D., Wilson, K. (2024).

The pivotal role of feedback in improving students’ writing competence has been undeniable, yet there has not been any agreement about how feedback can improve learning. The advancement of technology has opened opportunities to give feedback facilitated by technology, commonly referred to as Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE). AWE-based applications help produce effective feedback mostly because they are friendly. Several studies have documented that several AWE-based applications can potentially improve students’ writing skills. Nevertheless, effective feedback constitutes more than timely feedback. AWE-based applications cannot attain other factors, such as ongoing and goal-oriented. In other words, an AWE-based application is merely a form of feedback, such as comments and scores. Therefore, improving students’ writing competence cannot rely solely on AWE-based applications. The AWE-based application should be framed in the process of feedback provision that aims to improve learning, known as formative feedback. This paper elaborates on how AWE can be framed in formative feedback. The concept of formative feedback and the writing process will be discussed thoroughly before discussing how AWE tools can be embedded in formative feedback during the writing process.

Religious diversity in Indonesia demands its citizens to be moderate as they encounter religious affairs in society. Educators have made substantial efforts in many contexts, including in Madrasah Aliyah, to enable students to embrace the values of religious moderation not only in academic settings but also on a daily basis. This study aims to identify how a Madrasah Aliyah promotes religious moderation values, including students’ responses towards the notion. This study used a qualitative approach and case study design. The research instruments used questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. This study was situated in the scope where the school implements Islamic concepts in learning, which involved a teacher and 32 students. The data for this study is gathered from questionnaires and interviews. The study found that the values of religious moderation are promoted through learning activities supported by the school’s system. Being fair, tolerant, respecting differences, helping others, being honest, humble, cooperative, peaceful, responsible, and being a role model are religious moderation values promoted by the school. These values are embedded in all stages of learning. Also, this study discovered that teachers and students have implemented religious moderation values during teaching and learning. This study has shed light on how religious moderation values can be implemented in Madrasah Aliyah, and students can integrate those values into academic and actual life conditions.

This case study investigates English language teachers’ understanding and implementation of self-assessment (SA) in elementary, junior high, and senior high school levels. The research focuses on exploring how English teachers’ understanding of SA and how SA is applied in classroom settings. Data were collected through interviews and classroom observations involving five English teachers from a private school in East Jakarta, selected through purposeful sampling to capture diverse teaching experiences and grade levels. The findings indicate that all participants demonstrated a clear understanding of SA, its classroom implementation varied. Factors such as student age influenced the adaptation of SA practices, with younger learners requiring more guided approaches. Additionally, the frequency of SA use ranged from regular integration throughout lessons to limited use at the end of the term. These insights suggest areas for improvement, such as promoting more consistent use of SA throughout the learning process. The study offers practical examples of how English language teachers incorporate SA, providing guidance for educators aiming to enhance student engagement and autonomy through reflective learning practices.

The rapid advancement of technology tools, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), has led to the integration of technology-assisted learning media into educational settings. This study focuses on the utilization of AI and technology tools by students in the process of English academic writing and its impact on their writing skills. Employing a qualitative approach, data was gathered through open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews involving 73 English education students at an Islamic University in Indonesia. The findings of the study revealed that students employed a total of 15 technology tools, categorized into four types: language structures, sources, saving tracks, and references. According to the participants, the tools used by the participants were able to provide: direct feedback and correction, writing skills development. Specifically, the participants claimed that the tools enhance their understanding of grammatical rules and vocabulary acquisition. In addition, the participants considered that the tools help them to write a more cohesive and coherent essay. This study implies that the incorporation of technology tools in English academic writing has the potential to revolutionize the development and evaluation of writing skills. However, it is essential for students to strike a balance between leveraging these tools and honing their writing skills to ensure writing development.

ABSTRACT This research aims to identify ELT lecturers' readiness to implement online learning. This research involved 30 ELT lecturers from three different time zones in Indonesia: the western, middle, and eastern parts of Indonesia. The study employed an explanatory mixed method in which the quantitative stage was conducted prior to the qualitative stage. Drawing on data from questionnaires and Focus Group Discussions (FGD), the study found that regardless of the learning mode, lecturers' instruction remains similar except for the assessment process. However, this research also found that geographical location, learning materials, internet connection, and affordability contribute to lecturers' preference in selecting learning modes. This research implies that lecturers are ready to embrace the most of online learning; however, the utmost benefit from online learning can only be attained if the supporting systems are available for both lecturers and students. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi kesiapan dosen ELT dalam melaksanakan pembelajaran online. Penelitian ini melibatkan 30 dosen ELT dari tiga zona waktu yang berbeda di Indonesia. Berdasarkan data dari kuesioner dan Diskusi Kelompok Fokus (FGD), penelitian ini menemukan bahwa tidak peduli mode pembelajarannya, instruksi dosen tetap sama kecuali dalam proses penilaian. Namun, penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa lokasi geografis, materi pembelajaran, serta koneksi internet dan ketersediaan anggaran mempengaruhi preferensi dosen dalam memilih mode pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menyiratkan bahwa dosen siap untuk mengadopsi sebagian besar pembelajaran online; namun, manfaat maksimal dari pembelajaran online hanya dapat dicapai jika sistem pendukung tersedia baik untuk dosen maupun mahasiswa.
