Abstract

Purpose of the study: The purpose of this study is to examine students’ perceptions of the integration and development of critical thinking skills through Focus Group Discussions class in an English Education Study Program. Methodology: This study employed a mixed methods research design. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire survey and structured interview as research instruments. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statiscal analysis in the form of index percentage score, while qualitative data were analyzed through thematic-analysis to identify patterns related to students’ perceptions of critical thinking development. Main Findings: The results of the study indicate consistently positive students’ perception, shown by high index percentage scores, that Focus Group Discussion activities effectively develop critical thinking skills which include analytical reasoning, evaluation of multiple perspectives, synthesis of ideas, and evidence-based argumentation. Interview results reveal that peer interaction, clarification questioning, familiar topics, lecturer guidance and feedback strongly support critical engagement. However, students face challenges such as limited background knowledge to the unfamiliar topics, low confidence, and difficulty interpreting complex information. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study offers insights into how Focus Group Discussion functions as a structured pedagogical strategy for developing critical thinking in EFL context. It not only provides an overview of students’ perceptions of the integration of critical thinking skills, particularly in terms of analyzing, evaluating multiple perspectives, and synthesizing ideas, but also through the use of mixed-methods approach, highlights specific components of Focus Group Discussion that support or hinder students’ critical engagement.

Abstract

This study investigated EFL students’ speaking and creative thinking skills through digital storytelling activities using Book Creator. The objectives were to assess changes in speaking performance, evaluate creative thinking levels, and explore the Book Creator’s role in supporting both skills. This study employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design within a quantitative framework. Data were collected through pretest and posttest speaking scores, rubric-based creative thinking assessment, and field notes. The findings showed a marginal increase in mean speaking scores from 78.30 to 78.48. However, the paired-sample t-test indicated that the improvement was not statistically significant (Sig. = 0.831). In contrast, students demonstrated competence to excellent creative thinking, evident in their ability to generate and express ideas through visual, written, and audio elements. Field notes indicated increased comfort in independent recording, although speaking anxiety persisted. These findings suggest that digital storytelling facilitated idea expression and organization but did not significantly improve speaking performance. This study contributes by integrating multimodal digital storytelling into EFL contexts, highlighting its potential for fostering creativity despite its limited impact on speaking performance. Future research may further explore cognitive load, interactive speaking practices, and other 4C skills to provide a more holistic understanding of DST in EFL contexts.
