Abstract

Teachers must overcome the challenges of engaging and interactive English instruction. However, interactive and creative learning is usually conducted online via a digital platform. Sadly, not all Indonesian schools have good internet access. In Trenggalek, East Java, English teachers struggle with a similar issue. To overcome this problem, the PKM team trained English MGMP teachers in Trenggalek to make fun and interactive language games using Power Point (PPT). Although PPT is familiar to the teachers, not many of them are competent in using it to create fun activities. Combined offline and online trainings are being held. The PPT gamification training participants said they enjoyed themselves because the information was simple to comprehend and put into practice. In addition for trainee teachers to successfully follow and implement the training materials, PPT gamification training is tailored to their requirements and abilities.

Abstract

This study investigates vocational high school students’ perceptions of classmate support during English-speaking activities and its role in developing students’ confidence, fluency, and accuracy in speaking English. This qualitative research involved 98 eleventh-grade vocational students in East Java, with nine representative students in in-depth interviews. Data were collected through classroom observations, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews, and were analysed using the interactive model. The findings show a positive perception of the support provided by classmates. Cognitively, students view the support of their classmates as positive encouragement that helps them continue to develop. Affectively, students feel more comfortable and confident speaking because of emotional encouragement such as applause, praise, and attention from classmates. Conatively, students demonstrate active behaviour such as practicing together, giving positive feedback, and imitating the behaviour of friends who are more confident in speaking English. Moreover, the study reveals that classmate support contributes significantly to the improvement of students’ English-speaking skills. Supportive classmates enhance students’ confidence, promote greater fluency through regular practice, and improve accuracy through constructive peer correction. Overall, classmate support plays an essential role in fostering a collaborative learning environment that supports the development of vocational high school students’ English-speaking skills.
