Abstract

The pressing demand for work-relevant vocational English textbooks is essential for delivering effective learning materials that align with students' requirements. Appropriate textbooks can boost English language competence by enhancing students' abilities in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Listening skills form the cornerstone for developing proficiency in other language areas. However, survey revealed that 92.3% of the 52 vocational schools in Batam City had not updated their English textbooks, and 96.2% lacked listening materials tailored to industrial demands. As a result, only 11.87% of the 4,035 Batam City vocational school students who passed the test showed competence in the listening component of the English assessment. This research aims to create a valid and effective vocational English textbook that improves students' English communication abilities based on workplace requirements. To accomplish this goal, the study employed a developmental research approach (Borg and Gall). The research was conducted in Batam City, encompassing 52 vocational schools, 95 English teachers, and 4,070 vocational school students in Batam City, Indonesia. The study's outcomes indicate that: 1) the vocational English listening textbook developed was empirically validated with an average score of 3.6, placing it in the highly valid category. 2) This textbook has also been empirically shown to be effective in enhancing students' listening competence, with a sig. value of 0.000, which was below 0.05. Consequently, this textbook benefits the government and stakeholders, particularly vocational English instructors in Batam City, by improving their English communication competence through the provision of textbooks relevant to industrial contexts.

Abstract

The context of English education in Yemen provides a critical backdrop for comprehending the challenges Yemeni students face in acquiring proficiency in English pronunciation. These challenges are primarily rooted in the distinct differences between the Arabic and English sound systems, variations in syllable structure and intonation, and the influence of local dialects. Such factors are instrumental in identifying the obstacles Yemeni learners encounter in accurately articulating English phonemes. This research delves into the efficacy of phonetics instruction, specifically phonics training, in ameliorating English pronunciation skills among students in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) settings in Yemen. Employing a literature review methodology, this study meticulously collects and analyzes data from pertinent academic sources to assess the impact of phonics training on pronunciation proficiency. The findings reveal a significant enhancement in students' ability to correctly identify and articulate English phonemes, thereby improving their verbal interaction and comprehension skills, and bolstering their confidence in English communication. The contributions of this study are manifold. It illuminates the pivotal role of phonetics instruction in refining English pronunciation among EFL learners in Yemen, providing empirical evidence to support the integration of phonetic teaching within the EFL curriculum. Moreover, it advocates for the enrichment of educational resources and teacher development programs, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing English pronunciation in Yemen's English language education framework. Through its insights, this study not only addresses a critical gap in the literature but also proposes actionable recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of English pronunciation teaching in Yemeni EFL classrooms. In essence, this study underscores the transformative potential of phonics training in elevating the English language proficiency of Yemeni students, thereby contributing significantly to the broader discourse on language acquisition and pedagogy.
