Abstract

Speech errors can occur due to language activation and competition in the human brain as a symptom of language friction. Many researchers have studied the language friction and published their findings, indicating that the study about this issue is interesting to conduct. The current literature study aims to review previous research on language friction in terms of methods and linguistics theories applied in those studies. A systematic method was used in this research to select research articles on the language friction, and resulted in 17 articles to be reviewed. Those articles are published in Scopus indexed journals. It is found that in the last seven years, studies on language friction have shown an increasing trend, indicating that this issue is still relevant to study. In addition, most of them indicate that language friction has been analyzed based on psycholinguistics and sociolinguistics theories. However, it is not enough to study language friction from psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic perspectives, but also needs to be studied from ethnosociolinguistic perspective. This literature study can help educators and English language learners to choose learning methods by considering the language friction experienced by learners. Furthermore, by understanding the language friction, speech participants can overcome misunderstandings in communication.

Abstract

Integrating game aspects into non-gaming environments, or "gamification," has become a potent technique in education that can make conventional teaching methods more engaging. Gamification has shown promise in the field of language education for improving a variety of skills, including writing. This study aimed to know whether the use of the gamification teaching method has a significant effect on the students’ writing skills and their attitudes toward the method. This study used a pre-experimental method with a one-group pre-test and post-test design. A writing test was used to determine the students’ writing skills before and after using the gamification teaching method. Meanwhile, a questionnaire was used to determine the students’ attitudes toward the method. The result of this study shows that the mean score of the pre-test was 52.5714, and the mean score of the post-test was 70.2875. The result of the questionnaire also indicates that the use of the gamification teaching method helps students write descriptive texts and engages them in the learning process. It can be inferred that students' writing skills have improved, and they exhibit a highly positive attitude when taught using the gamification teaching method.

Abstract

In an increasingly digitalised educational landscape, integrating mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) tools has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance communicative competencies in English, particularly among high school learners. This study explores the effectiveness of the Duolingo application combined with a self-directed learning (SDL) approach in improving English-speaking skills among high school students. Using a quantitative research design, the study was conducted with 57 eleventh-grade students from UPTD SMAN 1 Aralle during the 2024-2025 academic year. Pre-test and post-test assessments measured students' speaking abilities before and after using Duolingo over a designated period. The results revealed a statistically significant improvement, with an average difference of -17.22 between pre-test and post-test scores, supported by a t-value of -8.92 and a significance level of 0.000. This indicates the significant positive impact of Duolingo's interactive features, gamification elements, and self-paced learning model in enhancing students' confidence and competence in speaking English. This research fills a gap in existing studies by focusing on speaking skills and provides practical recommendations for integrating technology into educational practices. It emphasizes the role of teacher guidance, consistent student engagement, and curriculum design to maximize the benefits of technology-driven learning.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the scaffolding method on students’ self-confidence in speaking at UPTD SMAN 2 Parepare. Preliminary observations revealed that one class of first-year students displayed notably higher self-confidence compared to others, which was linked to the implementation of the scaffolding method in that class. To assess the method's impact, an ex-post facto design with a quantitative approach was employed, focusing on the class, X.IPS.II, which consisted of 26 students. Data were collected using two questionnaires—one for the scaffolding method (X variable) and another for students' self-confidence in speaking (Y variable)—and supplemented with an observation checklist to validate the questionnaire data. Analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Version 25. Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient indicated an r-value of 0.888 between the scaffolding method and students’ self-confidence, surpassing the r-table value of 0.388, thus confirming a significant effect of the scaffolding method on students’ self-confidence in speaking which is classified into very strong

Abstract

This study investigates the practice of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in Indonesia, focusing on three key dimensions: implementation, learning outcomes, and teacher literacy. In response to the evolving demands of 21st-century education, this research aims to explore how Indonesian educators integrate technology within pedagogical and content frameworks. Using a qualitative literature review method, the study analyzed 53 scholarly articles published between 2016 and 2024. The findings suggest that TPACK implementation in Indonesia shows growing trends, particularly in the contexts of online and blended learning. Teachers who effectively applied TPACK strategies reported improved student engagement, motivation, and academic performance. However, several challenges remain, including limited access to digital infrastructure, inconsistent professional training, and varying levels of TPACK literacy among educators. The study highlights that while the framework holds promise, its sustainable application requires systemic support through policy, training, and institutional readiness. These insights contribute to the discourse on digital pedagogy in developing contexts and emphasize the importance of enhancing teacher competencies to align with future education demands.
