Online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic that has been going on for more than 4 semesters or 2 years in Indonesia might have made students feel no longer motivated to participate in online meetings. Problems with the internet and technology, heavy workload, as well as lack of student-student and student-teacher interactions have become the main reasons for students feeling demotivated as revealed by previous studies. This research was to examine the motivation of college students in STBA LIA Yogyakarta in participating in online learning on Zoom and to investigate the reasons that might demotivate them to join Zoom meetings. Questionnaires and a forum group discussion (FGD) were carried out to collect data. Descriptive analytical method was then used to analyze their responses to questions concerning motivation in the survey, and a cross tabulation analysis was to analyze the relationship between students who were demotivated and the reasons why they were less motivated towards Zoom meetings. The results indicated that most of the respondents were still motivated to take online lectures. Yet, such reasons as problems with the internet connectivity, the lecturers, and the classmates also contributed to make students less motivated.

This research examined the implementation of online learning in an English Speaking class at a school of foreign languages in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic, and it studied the obstacles that the students experienced in the learning process. It was a descriptive qualitative research. Data were obtained from observations, questionnaires, and interviews. The results showed that the implementation of online learning in the Speaking 2 class ran well. The students could follow the instructions given online by the lecturer, and they could apply their knowledge by taking part in class activities, class assignments, and class exams. The lecturer supported the students exactly whenever they needed it. The online learning at the language school, which combined Google Classroom and Zoom Meetings, could make the learning process more optimal. However, the effect of online learning for Speaking class on the students’ outcomes could be not very satisfying.

The Covid-19 Pandemic has affected human life in various aspects. Study and work in the year of 2020 to 2021 had to be done fully online. This condition has pushed people to improve their digital skills so that they could continue working, learning, and communicating efficiently and effectively in any situation. Digital capability should indeed be developed because it has become a requirement for any endeavor in the future. Students have been among those whose digital skills must be upgraded. The pandemic has forced them to increase their digital capabilities. This research was conducted to determine digital literacy of STBA LIA Yogyakarta students pre- and post-the Covid-19 pandemic. Ninety (90) students filled out a survey concerning their digital skills before and after the pandemic. This quantitative descriptive research was to see the increase in the 5 elements of student digital capabilities as proposed by JISC. The findings showed that students' abilities in the five elements have improved quite a lot. The number of students with ‘good; and ‘very good’ abilities increased and the number of students with ‘weak’ and ‘very weak’ abilities decreased. Students with ‘good’ and ‘very good’ abilities after the pandemic were evenly distributed across four elements. A slight increase was indicated in the digital creation, problem solving and innovation abilities, albeit still in the ‘average’ category both before and after the pandemic.

This research was to find out patterns of speaking English activities among Indonesian learners of English. This is to find out their lacks, needs, and wants regarding out-of-class English activities to improve their speaking English proficiency when in an EFL (English as a Foreign Language) context like Indonesia. As many as 107 respondents of college students of English of 4 universities in Indonesia participated in this research by responding to closed and open items provided in questionnaires. After a deep descriptive qualitative analysis, results show that most respondents perceived that they lacks peaking skills amongst other English skills. They lack chances to speak the language. They wanted to have ample extramural activities to practice speaking English. They needed to be “forced” to venture to speak English when outside classroom. In conclusion, there is a discrepancy (lacks) between the ideal proficiency that they perceived and the current level of speaking skills. They need to be provided with learning policies to provide them with chances events or venues to practice speaking English. Extramural speaking activities need to be explored and then written into a school policy so that students will not only speak English when in class but also when outside classes. Participatory-yet-mandatory extramural English activities need to be promoted.

This research investigated English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students’ familiarity with AI tools, the frequency of use, the purpose of use, and the perceived benefits of the tools in EFL learning. Undergraduate and Diploma 3 students batch 2020-2023 of a private English language college in Yogyakarta, Indonesia were asked to respond to a questionnaire surveying AI tools they are using in their EFL learning and the applications. Among the 34 AI tools mentioned in the questionnaire, Google Translate, Chat GPT, Grammarly, Canva, Quizziz, and Voice Generator were the most frequently used by the majority of the respondents. The respondents reported using AI tools in their EFL learning sometimes rather than always. Most of them sometimes used the tools for brainstorming, writing support, personalized and immediate English learning support, searching research references, analysis support, multi-media support, and audio support. The majority, however, reported never using the tools for audio multi-media support. Overall, a significant number respondents reported that AI Tools is beneficial because it helps them learn English, enhance their depth of thinking and understanding, and improve their grammar. As for generations, generation Z generally used AI tools to generate ideas, writing support, analysis support, and visual multi-media support. The Millennial often used AI for personalized and immediate English learning, searching research references, and audio multi-media support. In addition, the respondents greatly benefited from AI as AI helped improve their English skills, depth of thinking and understanding, and grammatical skills.

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly transformed the educational landscape, compelling educators to adopt various digital tools to ensure the continuity of learning. Although face-to-face learning has resumed, the integration of technology in education remains relevant and essential. This study investigates students' perceptions of lecturers' digital literacy in the context of online learning during and after the pandemic. The research involved 30 respondents through questionnaires and 7 participants in forum group discussions (FGDs) from two higher education institutions with language departments: STBA LIA Yogyakarta and Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta. The study aimed to assess lecturers' competencies in using digital tools for teaching and the extent to which these tools are considered necessary from the students’ perspective. The findings indicate that while lecturers demonstrate sufficient to proficient skills in utilizing Learning Management Systems (LMS), video conferencing platforms, and basic hardware tools such as laptops and smartphones, they often struggle with more advanced competencies, including video and audio editing, gamification, and managing digital learning platforms. Students emphasized the importance of engaging teaching materials, particularly video-based content with high resolution and clear audio, to support better understanding in online settings. Furthermore, students highlighted the necessity for lecturers to master not only the delivery of content but also the management of digital classroom tools, including online attendance, evaluation, and communication through messenger platforms. The study concludes that digital literacy among lecturers must continue to be developed even after the pandemic, as online and blended learning remain integral to modern education. Mastery of digital tools—ranging from authoring and testing tools to communication and presentation platforms—is crucial in enhancing the quality and accessibility of education. Ongoing training and professional development in educational technology are recommended to ensure that lecturers can meet the evolving needs of their students in a digital learning environment.
