Abstract

The background of this research is the assumption that a gap exists, causing cultural conflict represented by Customs and Values (Culture) in English textbooks used in Junior High Schools, especially in grade 7. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to determine whether the gap is indeed true. Moreover, it will also be clear why the gap occurs and what the solution to the problem is. The research method employed is a qualitative approach using a content analysis research instrument to analyse the visualisations contained in English textbooks for grade 7 students in Junior High School. The visualisations are obtained from two selected English textbooks, namely English for Nusantara and English in Mind. The results of the study revealed social conflict in English textbooks used by 7th-grade junior high school students in the Customs and Values entity, which is part of the Culture sector. Based on a comprehensive data analysis, this study provides several conclusions. Referring to Berelson's content analysis steps, there was social conflict in terms of customs and values ​​in both English textbooks, namely English for Nusantara and English in Mind. After comparison, social conflict related to customs occurred more frequently than others, with a percentage of around 70% to 30%. Therefore, social conflict arose in both customs and values. This study contributes to the discourse on culturally sensitive English language teaching, offering practical guidance for curriculum designers, educators, and policymakers to enhance intercultural competence and contextual relevance in language learning.

Abstract

Toxic workplace environments, excessive role demands, and financial anxiety are growing challenges in higher education, undermining lecturers’ well-being and increasing turnover intention. These issues are particularly evident in private institutions, where limited resources and job insecurity often intensify stressors. This study examines the influence of toxic workplace environment and work-role overload on turnover intention among lecturers in private higher education institutions in Lampung, with financial anxiety tested as a moderating variable. A total of 120 questionnaires were distributed through online and offline approaches, and after data cleaning, 102 valid responses were analysed. Data were processed using SPSS 26, with descriptive statistics, reliability testing, and correlation analysis conducted as preliminary steps. All constructs demonstrated strong internal consistency, with Cronbach’s alpha values above 0.70. Results from Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) revealed that toxic workplace environment (β = 0.34, p < 0.01) and work-role overload (β = 0.41, p < 0.001) had significant positive effects on turnover intention. Moreover, financial anxiety significantly moderated the relationship between toxic workplace environment and turnover intention (β = 0.28, p < 0.05). These findings underscore the importance of addressing workplace stressors and financial concerns to reduce turnover intention and support healthier, more sustainable academic environments

Abstract

Current educational theories and studies emphasize the need to use innovative and collaborative approaches to improve student’s learning experience, especially in the field of English Language Teaching (ELT). This study explores the obstacles and strategies for using these teaching approaches in the Indonesian ELT context. The research used mixed methods with a convergent parallel design. The questionnaires were used to gather data from 42 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers, while semi-structured interviews were done with 6 teachers to explore their perspectives and experiences. The research was conducted in one district in West Sulawesi, Indonesia. The significant findings emphasize the critical impact of innovative and collaborative learning on improving students’ learning outcomes. The results also found obstacles that impede innovative and collaborative actual use, such as inadequate resources, teacher reluctance, and lack of appropriate teacher professional development. This research has potential implications beyond Indonesia and provides significant insights and suggestions for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders in comparable EFL situations globally to promote creative and collaborative learning environments.

Abstract

We investigated how the Covid-19 pandemic affected formative assessment in English subjects in Indonesian junior and senior secondary schools in this study. Teachers' perceptions of their formative assessment practices at Indonesian schools is the main object of the study. This study studied formative assessment in English teaching in Indonesia in emergency remote teaching. Data was collected using open-ended questionnaires, which were then distributed via the WhatsApp group to 82 English teachers across the country. The respondents were English teachers from various Indonesian junior and secondary schools. This research was divided into four sections: (1) technique, (2) integrity, (3) media used, and (4) challenges. In this study, the majority of teachers believed that face-to-face instruction could provide better formative assessment than online learning. They could use more techniques, be more confident in the outcome, have more media, and face fewer challenges. Because of a lack of infrastructure and media, including internet access, in Indonesia, assessment practises during online learning had deteriorated. The findings suggested that the participating teachers found formative assessment via online learning to be distressing.

Abstract

Authentic learning materials (ALM) are recognized for providing meaningful and engaging educational experiences. However, there is a lack of extensive research examining the relationship between authentic learning materials, students’ intrinsic motivation, and their listening skills. This study addresses this gap by employing a quantitative method through the distribution of a 35-item Likert scale questionnaire to junior high school students in Batam. The questionnaire aimed to assess students’ attitudes and perceptions regarding the use of authentic materials in their English classes. The results from 30 students indicated that authentic learning materials positively influence student engagement, intrinsic motivation, and cultural awareness. These materials were found to enhance students' interest and participation in learning activities by making the content more relatable and applicable to real-life situations. The study also highlighted some challenges, such as difficulties in comprehension and issues with classroom dynamics, which could impact the overall effectiveness of these materials. Despite these challenges, the data suggest that authentic learning materials effectively bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world language use. This connection fosters a sense of achievement and satisfaction among students, as they can see the practical application of their language skills. Thus, incorporating authentic materials into the curriculum can provide significant benefits, enhancing the overall learning experience and motivation of students in the English classroom.

Abstract

This research revisits the washback concept in Indonesia’s education system, specifically focusing on the impact of national standardized tests on teaching and learning practices. In Indonesia, high-stakes testing, such as the national examination, has been used to assess educational quality, often influencing curriculum design, teaching methods, and student motivation. The research highlights how such examinations can narrow the curriculum, encourage teaching to the test, and place undue pressure on stakeholders, including teachers and students. Drawing from research conducted in Indonesia and globally, the research also discusses the need for further investigations to develop assessment models that promote positive washback effects. This shift opens opportunities for rethinking assessments that support holistic learning and skill development. The research concludes by emphasizing the importance of well-designed assessments in fostering positive educational outcomes and improving the quality of education in Indonesia.

Abstract

Toddlers are a group vulnerable to health problems, especially malnutrition, considering the rapid growth and development phase at this time. Malnutrition in toddlers can have a severe impact on the child's brain development and intelligence and can even result in death. An observational study in Dono Mulyo Village, Way Kanan Regency, Lampung, in May 2024 found three cases of underweight toddlers out of 95 toddlers observed. Handling this problem, including providing additional food, is essential. Community practice activities aim to overcome the problem of underweight toddlers by giving extra food, educating mothers about the importance of balanced nutrition for toddlers, and increasing mothers' knowledge about balanced nutrition for toddlers. The method used is counselling to mothers of toddlers. Activities are carried out in several stages: preparation, implementation of activities, evaluation, and preparation of reports. Knowledge assessment is carried out by giving a pretest before counselling and a posttest after counselling. Apart from that, toddler feeding patterns are measured as a result of changes in attitudes, which is done with the Child Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ). The results of community practice activities show that outreach activities can increase mothers' knowledge about the importance of balanced nutrition for toddlers and demonstrate accuracy in toddler feeding patterns.
