Abstract

This study investigates the challenges EFL teachers face when designing listening assessment materials, with a focus on understanding these obstacles and identifying strategies to address them. The research aims to explore the alignment of assessment practices with student proficiency levels, resource accessibility, and the impact of time constraints on assessment quality. The study involves eight active English teachers from diverse educational institutions as participants. Data were collected using an online questionnaire designed to gather insights into teachers’ perspectives and strategies, guided by the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model. This structured framework facilitated a comprehensive analysis of contextual needs, available resources, procedural approaches, and assessment outcomes. The data were analyzed descriptively using Google Forms, with key findings highlighting significant challenges in sourcing appropriate audio materials, ensuring inclusivity and validity, and managing time for creating bespoke assessments. Results revealed that while 50% of teachers successfully aligned assessments with student abilities, 25% faced difficulties in selecting suitable materials due to resource limitations. Teachers frequently relied on self-created or freely available online resources and employed pre-made tests due to time constraints. Despite these efforts, gaps in assessment literacy and resource access persisted. The study underscores the need for professional development programs to enhance language assessment literacy, improved access to diverse, high-quality audio materials, and systemic support to address these challenges. By addressing these issues, this research contributes to more effective listening assessment practices, fostering equitable and comprehensive EFL education.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the efficacy of project-based learning (PBL) in the context of English language teaching (ELT). The study seeks to identify the benefits and challenges associated with implementing PBL in language classrooms and explores its impact on language learning outcomes. A systematic literature review of relevant academic literature was conducted, focusing on studies published between 2010 and 2023. Peer-reviewed articles, books, and conference proceedings were analyzed to synthesize current findings on applying PBL in ELT settings. The review reveals that PBL promotes meaningful language use, fosters learner autonomy, and enhances communicative competence among language learners. Students engaged in PBL demonstrate improved motivation, collaboration skills, and critical thinking abilities. However, challenges such as time constraints, assessment issues, and instructor readiness were noted as potential barriers to effective PBL implementation. Based on the findings, recommendations include comprehensive teacher training in PBL methodologies, the development of appropriate assessment strategies that align with PBL objectives, and integration of PBL activities that cater to diverse learner needs. Future research should explore PBL's long-term impact on language proficiency and investigate effective strategies for overcoming implementation challenges.

Abstract

In response to the pedagogical shift toward more authentic and student-centered learning in higher education, this study investigates the integration of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in teaching academic writing to English education students in Indonesia. While PjBL has been recognized for fostering collaboration and critical thinking, limited research has explored how students behaviorally, emotionally, and cognitively respond to its implementation in writing instruction. Addressing this gap, a qualitative case study was conducted involving twenty university students who participated in a semester-long PjBL-based writing course. Drawing on data from observations, interviews, and document analysis involving twenty English education students, this study reveals three key findings. Behaviorally, students demonstrated active participation, leadership, and collaborative responsibility, supported by structured peer roles and group accountability mechanisms, although a few exhibited passive involvements due to unequal workload distribution. Emotionally, most students experienced enthusiasm and a sense of accomplishment, particularly during topic selection and final submission, but some expressed anxiety related to public presentation and frustration over imbalanced team contributions. Cognitively, students showed marked improvements in brainstorming, organizing arguments, and revising drafts, guided by visual tools, feedback, and reflective journaling, which enhanced their critical thinking and writing cohesion. These findings highlight PjBL as a transformative pedagogy that fosters technical skills, autonomy, emotional resilience, and cognitive engagement. By offering an integrated view of students’ experiences, the study advocates for strategies that support collaboration, emotional support, and metacognitive awareness in academic writing, with broader implications for advancing student-centered learning in higher education.
