Abstract

Many university instructors assess academic essay writing using general rubrics or borrowed instruments that do not align with specific course outcomes and learner profiles. This study was initiated to address this gap by developing a valid and reliable assessment instrument for academic essay writing among EFL university students, focusing on argumentative essays. The instrument was constructed systematically, involving needs analysis, expert validation, pilot testing, and statistical evaluation for reliability and validity. The trial was conducted with 6 students from the English Language Education Study Program, and their essays were rated by two trained raters. The results showed that the rubric successfully captured performance variation across six key writing components and allowed for consistent scoring with minimal discrepancies between raters. Expert validators confirmed that the rubric is clear, relevant, and aligned with academic essay writing expectations. Rater reliability analysis showed consistent inter-rater scores (score differences ≤1 point), indicating strong rubric usability. Based on these findings, this instrument offers a practical and theoretically grounded tool for assessing academic essay writing in EFL higher education settings.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping academic writing by offering both challenges and opportunities. Numerous studies have discussed this topic and are worth compiling and synthesising.  Based on the topic, several existing studies published from January 2023 to March 2025 were reviewed systematically using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis) framework. After searches in Scopus and Google Scholar yielded 1,024 records, 34 titles were selected based on defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings highlight the two sides of AI in academic writing: 1) presenting ethical issues, training needs, Critical thinking degradation, AI misinformation, AI addiction, weak AI detectors, AI’s rhetorical patterns, users’ negative perceptions, and other challenges, 2) facilitating several opportunities, such as writing quality improvement (accuracy, organization, and style), writing productivity and efficiency, idea development, AI awareness, research support, new insights, writing engagement, and usability. This study contributed to developing guidelines to address ethical, effective, and prudent use of AI in academic writing. It is a foundation for upcoming researchers who delve into AI in academic writing and other related skills in the EFL teaching context. Moreover, investigations across disciplines and educational levels are worth exploring.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to gather empirical proof that tongue twisters significantly affect students' speaking abilities and pronunciation. This study employed a quantitative methodology and a quasi-experimental research design. This study was carried out at SMP NAA Alasbuluh-Wongsorejo-Banyuwangi in the eighth grade. The experimental class (38 students) and the control class (41 students) were the two groups in the researcher's basic random sampling technique. The researcher employed a tongue twister test as the tool for data collection, and the students' speaking and pronunciation on the pre-test and post-test were scored using a speaking and pronunciation scoring rubric. The experimental class's post-test mean score, as determined by the t-test calculations, was 80.68, whereas the control class's was 50.65. In the statistical hypothesis test, robserved (0.958) was greater than rtable (0.2213) at the 5% significance level. It indicates that the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative the hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. It was demonstrated that the tongue twister approach affects eighth-grade students' speaking and pronunciation at SMP NAA Alasbuluh-Banyuwangi

Abstract

Research on digital literacy and digital competence in English teacher education has expanded substantially over the past decade, reflecting a growing scholarly interest in teachers’ roles in digitally mediated learning environments. This study systematically maps publication trends, collaboration patterns, and thematic emphases in this research domain, identifying how digital literacy and digital competence are conceptualized and empirically addressed. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following the PRISMA framework, drawing on Scopus-indexed publications from 2015 to 2025. Bibliometric analysis examined publication growth, co-authorship networks, country contributions, and keyword co-occurrences, complemented by thematic synthesis to interpret conceptual and pedagogical patterns. VOSviewer was used to visualize bibliometric linkages. Findings indicate steady growth in publication numbers, with limited international collaboration and regional concentration, particularly in Southeast Asia. Thematic synthesis reveals that digital literacy is commonly framed as foundational skills that include information access, communication, and basic technology use, while digital competence emphasizes pedagogical integration, professional development, and context-responsive teaching. Advanced aspects such as AI-supported pedagogy, critical digital engagement, and transformative digital practices remain less explored. Overall, both constructs are central in English teacher education but are addressed with varying conceptual depth
