Abstract

CEFR is, in the Indonesian view, commonly associated merely with the standardized English test and rarely connected to the educational curriculum, pedagogy, and learning. This paper, therefore, aims to give an overview of the CEFR conceptualization; the 2001, 2018, and 2020 versions. The three versions or editions are concisely overviewed and then reflected to the Indonesian context. The adoption of CEFR provides opportunity for coherent relationship between policy, teaching, learning, and assessment.

Abstract

The paper reports a case study method exploring the perceptions of 10 students enrolling a listening class in terms of their experience when taking extensive listening, primarily by using YouTube. A closed-ended questionnaire was delivered and FGD through a semi-structured interview was utilized as a datacollecting method. The results of exploring the students’ perspectives indicated that: (1) they can do extensive listening via YouTube to improve their listening fluency anytime and anywhere; (2) they can learn the pronunciation of new vocabulary and grammar through extensive listening; (3) they can pertain the topic of aural text from context; (4) the speed change function and the subtitle function is occasionally used to solve their confusion on new phrases; (5) some commercials may be as information to support their English learning; (6) they find an unreliable or unstable internet connection in some cases. Therefore, it is suggested that teachers set the teaching and learning activities and environment that can encourage students to experience extensive listening. Besides, it is also suggested that the institution management provide good Internet accessibility in the teaching and learning environment.

Abstract

Speaking is one of the productive skills in English. Among the four language skills, speaking tends to be the language skill that seems to be difficult for students to do because it requires students to be able to communicate orally in English. This constraint has led to several studies about the teaching and learning of speaking. To enrich the studies about the teaching of speaking, this paper aims to describe the process of doing a video project by fulfilling all elements of speaking such as grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, and pronunciation. The participants of the study are 71 students of the Food Crop Production Program at Politeknik Negeri Jember. By doing the project, students can conduct a series of activities as follows: deciding a topic, working on language aspects, planning the video, drafting, editing, uploading the finished video on the YouTube channel, and giving a score of the video. The results show that by conducting the project, the students learn to write a script with better grammar and vocabulary, understand the task, and pronounce English words correctly and fluently. The video project also encourages the students to learn how to edit videos using editing software. This project also helps students and lecturers do collaborative teaching and learning processes to produce a video with some elements of speaking completely.
