Abstract

This research article provides an examination of the challenges faced by students during the composition of procedure texts. It aims to uncover factors influencing students' proficiency. Utilizing thematic analysis, we analyzed students' written texts and conducted interviews with junior high school English teachers and students, providing a holistic perspective.   Four significant areas of difficulty were identified: minimal word and phrase variations, lack of clarity and precision, ignorance of writing mechanisms, and challenges with grammar and spelling. These challenges provided insights into the recurring patterns of students"™ writing. Factors contributing to these difficulties included motivational factors, language environment, language proficiency, and formal presentation aspects. Student motivation to write and seek comments was hindered by low intrinsic motivation. Students' writing talents were also shaped by language exposure and proficiency, which varied by background and experience. Additionally, formal presentation characteristics and technology-based teaching strategy restrictions underlined the need for improved infrastructure to accommodate various and engaging teaching methods. In conclusion, the research sheds light on the intricate landscape of students' struggles in composing texts and underscores the urgency of providing tailored teaching strategies to address these challenges effectively while also keeping the influencing factors in consideration.

Abstract

This paper presents the discussion on the impact of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to English language teachers’ decision and performance in the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in teaching. This study carried out a multiple study on two different teachers from different institutional and academic status background in Indonesia. Interviews were carried out to the participant to obtain deeper information concerning their experience in different types of CPD, and how it could influence the way they perceive ICT usefulness and enhance their teaching performance. The result of this study is expected to provide practical contributions particularly to the policy makers to improve teachers’ competences by designing appropriate curriculum and CPD in accordance with the teachers’ need in the digital era. The result of study indicated that both teachers tended to develop their TPACK (Technological, Pedagogical and Content Knowledge) competences from informal CPD they had from informal co-learning with colleagues and informal network learning from online resources. They also pointed out that governments provided teachers with online-based training that they could access to governments’ official websites.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the conversations between Mr. Hundert and Sedgewick Bell in The Emperor’s Club through a qualitative case study with genre-based discourse analysis, grounded in Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics. By employing techniques such as framing, foregrounding, backgrounding, and presupposition, the study reveals how linguistic choices reinforce ideological conflicts between moral idealism and pragmatic ambition. The findings suggest that these ideological tensions reflect broader dilemmas in character education, especially relevant to Indonesia’s Kurikulum Merdeka and the Pancasila Student Profile. The study has implications for literature-based pedagogy and ethical development in classroom settings.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the challenges faced by EFL students in translating cooking recipes. It was conducted on sixth-semester students from class B in the translation course. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method with thematic analysis to identify and interpret key patterns within the data. Data collection was carried out through a triangulation approach, combining mixed-method questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed four main themes and one additional theme related to the students’ difficulties: (1) vocabulary-related challenges, (2) grammar and equivalence issues, (3) translation quality and self-confidence, (4) limited exposure and cultural context, and (5) translation methods and procedures as an additional theme. These challenges reflect the complexity of translating procedural texts, especially recipes, which often include culturally bound terms, specific measurements, and imperative instructions. The study concludes that translating recipes presents significant linguistic and contextual challenges for EFL students. It suggests the need for more targeted strategies and exposure to authentic materials in translation to help students improve their translation and overcome practical difficulties in translating specialized texts like recipes.

Abstract

Improving the quality of human resources in rural areas is a significant challenge in achieving equal education in Indonesia, particularly in areas such as Tumbang Nusa Village, Jabiren Raya District, Pulang Pisau Regency, Central Kalimantan. Low awareness of the importance of education and limited access to English language learning are factors that hinder the development of the younger generation's potential. This community service activity aims to increase the awareness and basic English language skills through a participatory and contextual approach based on the school community. The implementation method includes interactive training, song-based and visual learning, and joint reflection, face-to-face at partner schools. The results of the activity demonstrated high enthusiasm among participants, active engagement in the learning process, and increased motivation to learn English. This activity also strengthened collaboration between the community service team, the village, and the school as local partners. This activity suggests that the contextual and communicative approach is effective in developing learning awareness and language skills among students living in rural areas.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to enhance children’s motivation to learn English in Gunung Mas Village through the implementation of a fun learning approach involving a foreign speaker. The approach emphasizes enjoyment, active engagement, and hands-on experience as the core of the learning process. The “Kelas Pelita” program consisted of three interactive sessions focusing on the topics of the alphabet, numbers, colors, fruits and body parts, integrating four main elements: Game-Based Learning (GBL), Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Total Physical Response (TPR), and the use of digital media. The results showed that students became more enthusiastic, confident, and willing to communicate in English. Direct interaction with a foreign speaker from Yemen provided authentic language exposure and increased students’ curiosity toward English as a global communication tool. Through the fun learning approach, this activity successfully created a positive, interactive, and meaningful learning atmosphere for children in a rural area.

Abstract

This community service program explored the use of the kinesthetic method to enhance children’s English vocabulary through the Engage, Study, and Activate (ESA) approach. The program was carried out with 12 sixth-grade students at SDN Nagaleah, Barito Timur, over three interactive learning sessions that focused on vocabulary related to animals and body parts. The teaching process integrated games, songs, gestures, and visual aids to create an engaging and enjoyable learning environment for the children. To measure the effectiveness of the activities, a pre-test and post-test were administered, and the results showed a significant improvement in students’ vocabulary mastery, with the average score rising from 69.17 to 91.25, representing a 31.93% enhancement. These outcomes highlight that community service activities in education can effectively support children’s vocabulary acquisition by encouraging active participation, improving memory retention, and fostering motivation to learn.

Abstract

This research investigates the use of speech acts by Levi Kane, the main character in the 2025 romantic action-thriller film The Gorge, through the framework of Searle’s Speech Act Theory. The study aims to classify and analyze Levi’s utterances based on their types, forms, and pragmatic levels to understand how language reflects his identity and emotional transformation. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, 170 utterances were analyzed from the film’s official transcript. The utterances were categorized into five speech act types (assertive, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative), identified as either direct or indirect, and evaluated according to three pragmatic levels: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. The findings reveal that assertive speech acts are the most dominant, followed by directives, expressives, and commissives. No declaratives were found, which reflects Levi’s role as an executor rather than a formal authority. Direct speech acts significantly outnumber indirect ones, illustrating his concise and action-oriented communication style. At the pragmatic level, illocutionary acts dominate, suggesting that Levi’s speech is highly intentional and performative. These results indicate that Levi’s speech patterns mirror his shift from a reserved soldier to an emotionally engaged individual. The study highlights how pragmatic analysis can be used to trace psychological depth and character development in film, providing valuable insights for linguists, educators, and scholars of media discourse
