Abstract

WhatsApp has been extensively used by many English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in Indonesia as a near synchronous online learning platform. This program enables users to make announcements, exchange ideas and learning materials, and participate in online debates. Some recent publications inform its utilization in learning language, yet little discusses how students engage in the learning activities. Therefore, to fill this void, the present study aims to investigate the students' behavioral engagement during online learning using WhatsApp. To collect the data, this study employed observation and semi-structured interviews. An observation was completed in one class at a state university in Tasikmalaya, West Java, Indonesia to perceive how the students responded to the teacher's instructions during the learning process. Meanwhile, the interviews were conducted with nine students in a similar class. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that students engaged behaviourally by (1) posing questions or comments politely, (2) using emoticons and emojis as politeness reinforcements, and (3) confirming the unclear information behind the scene. Implications for teaching and further studies are discussed.

Abstract

This study investigates students' perceptions of writing online blackout poetry in an elective course called Children's Literature. A descriptive case study is purposively used to explore their perceptions of the advantages of writing online blackout poetry on their reading and writing skills and the obstacles in doing the activity. Fifty-one students of children's literature writing blackout poetries are the research participants. Close-ended and open-ended questionnaires were used for the data collection. Meanwhile, the data were analyzed thematically using the framework of Braun and Clarke (2006). The findings show that students have a positive perception of writing blackout poetry. They believe that the activity is challenging and promotes their creativity. Furthermore, it is regarded as a media that merges reading and writing activities. However, it is found that blackout poetry has limited word expression. Despite its weaknesses, this study implies that blackout poetry can promote creativity and reading and writing activities in the EFL context.

This study scrutinizes the process of reflective practices carried out by English student teachers in their microteaching practices. The focus of this study exposes the student teachers’ engagement when they implement reflective practice. Student teachers’ challenges that they face during the process of reflection and teaching practices are also revealed.  This study is a qualitative case study that involved 5 English student teachers consisting of 1male student and 4 female students who enrolled in Microteaching class. They experienced microteaching practices and went through several stages: planning, teaching, feedback, re-planning, re-teaching, and re-feedback. To gain the data, student teachers’ interviews and their reflective journals were used to dig for information about their engagement in reflective practice during their microteaching and also information about their challenges in this process. The data from interviews and reflective journals were analyzed qualitatively and revealed that the student teachers showed their active participation during the reflective practice in microteaching. They experienced how reflective practices gave them opportunities to learn how to evaluate their teaching practice. However, they also faced some challenges such as particularly in critically evaluating their practices. The results of this study are expected to increase student teachers’ awareness and knowledge and their professional skills as prospective teachers.

Abstract

This study analyses how news coverage of Nadiem Makarim’s public statement on the Merdeka Belajar policy in Tempo is constructed through Fairclough’s Three-Dimensional model. The objective is to reveal how ideology and power relations are communicated in this discourse. Employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as its methodological framework, data were collected with document analysis of a Tempo online article Bowen (2009) and examined through Fairclough’s three dimensions that include description (text analysis), interpretation (processing analysis), and explanation (social analysis). Findings show that Nadiem’s statement is represented as an urgency demanding government action that framed across all three CDA stages. At description level, lexical choices, nominalization, passivization, and transitivity foreground ideological framing and underscore governmental leadership in promoting transformative education. At interpretation level, media credibility is negotiated through the selection of news sources and a balance between subjective and objective reporting. At the explanation level, socio-cultural and political contexts, including the Minister’s self-image, ideological conflicts between progressive and conservative group, hierarchical power relation, and enduring traditional cultural values that shape and legitimize the policy discourse. Implications of this study highlight the pivotal role of language in building public trust and legitimizing transformative education reforms. This research offers valuable insights for policy makers, educators, and future CDA studies in educational contexts.
