Abstract

This study aimed to analyzed students' interest in using the Duolingo app at SMA Negeri 16 Padang. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting data through structured interviews and video recordings. Participants consisted of 10 students who had been using Duolingo for at least three months. The collected data were analyzed using thematic analysis, following the six stages proposed by Braun and Clarke. The results indicated that students’ interest in learning English was evident in five key indicators: enjoyment, curiosity, attention, active engagement, and self-confidence. In term of enjoyment the app provides an interactive and enjoyable learning environment through gamification features such as daily challenges, points, and levels, which motivate students and increase their engagement. Furthermore, Duolingo fosters students' curiosity, encouraging them to continue learning and improve their English skills. Use of the app also increases students' confidence, particularly in vocabulary and speaking. In conclusion, this study shows that students are indeed interested in learning English using the Duolingo app, as demonstrated by the results of five indicators of student interest in learning. This study recommends integrating Duolingo into English language learning to increase student interest in learning.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen teachers’ understanding and awareness of character education through the Islamic Action Theory (IAT) approach, particularly in developing action awareness, perseverance, and moral resilience in professional practice. The program was initiated to reinforce teachers’ internal dimensions in interpreting values, professional ethics, and the consistency of intention in pedagogical activities. The activity was conducted in the form of a socialization program designed to provide conceptual reinforcement regarding Islamic Action Theory, professional reflection, and their relevance to moral awareness in educational actions. The methods included material presentation, interactive discussions, and exploration of participants’ professional experiences. The implementation indicated that the program provided a reflective space for teachers to reexamine their professional practices, particularly in self-reflection, intention alignment, and the interpretation of values in pedagogical actions. Teachers began to perceive reflection not merely as an evaluative activity but as an essential mechanism for strengthening professional awareness, perseverance, and moral resilience in responding to the dynamics of educational practice. This program represents an initial step toward supporting the reinforcement of character education, based on action awareness and integrated with moral and spiritual values. The program is expected to serve as a foundation for further practical and sustainable activities.

Abstract

The increasing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed academic writing by enabling students to generate ideas, improve language quality, and complete writing tasks more efficiently. However, excessive dependence on AI has raised concerns regarding ethical awareness and academic responsibility. This study aims to examine the ethical implications of AI overreliance in academic writing through a systematic literature review. Relevant studies published between 2023 and 2025 were selected and analyzed to identify key issues related to academic integrity, authorship, accountability, transparency, and responsible AI use. The findings indicate that AI overreliance may weaken students’ sense of ownership over their work, reduce critical evaluation of information, and create uncertainty regarding ethical writing practices. Furthermore, limited AI literacy and unclear institutional guidelines contribute to inappropriate AI use. The study concludes that ethical awareness plays a crucial role in ensuring responsible AI-assisted writing. Therefore, higher education institutions should promote ethical AI literacy and establish clear policies to maintain academic integrity.

Abstract

EFL students do not only have linguistic problems but also psychological problems when learning English. The present study aims to describe psychological problems in speaking. This study is conducted under descriptive design. Participants in this study were 20 fifth-semester students of the English Education Department, Universitas PGRI Sumatera. The instrument used in this study is an online questionnaire. The findings indicate that although anxiety, shyness, lack of confidence, and fear of making mistakes are significant problems, respondents showed a generally neutral attitude toward these problems. However, the presence of these psychological barriers, coupled with a lack of motivation, suggests that targeted interventions are needed to improve English-speaking performance among respondents.
