Abstract

Background: Figurative language deals with non-literal language to shift meaning by comparing other words to the original composition. This appears in many works of literature, including the holy Qur’an. Therefore, it is essential to study, not intending to reduce or increase the meaning of the Qur’an. Aims: This study aims to identify the types of figurative language in the surahs As-Saffat and Ar-Rahman and examine the most dominant figurative language in both surahs. Methods: This qualitative study analyzed the linguistic phenomena in the verses. The objects were As-Saffat, which consists of 182 verses, and surah Ar-Rahman, which consists of 78 verses. The data were presented descriptively. Results: The findings revealed that 81 verses in both Surah As-Saffat and Ar-Rahman contain figurative language. Surah As-Saffat contained 32 data points of figurative language, while Ar-Rahman had 49 data points. The most dominant type of figurative language in Surah As-Saffat is ellipsis, and in Surah Ar-Rahman, it is rhetoric. Implications: The analysis results reflect that academics can be a form of integration between religious and general science, such as literature. Therefore, a more in-depth al-Qur’an can be easily perceived. Although related to general science, it does not leave the rules in interpreting the Qur’an. This can enrich the reference for Teaching English as a Foreign Language.

Abstract

The use of podcasts as language teaching and learning has obtained more attention today. Podcasts have been used mostly to improve students' listening skill that is proven by numerous studies to determine how podcasts might assist students in improving their listening skills. Whereas, podcasting promotes activities for the students to practice their whole English skills. This is a literature research that provides a review of podcasting to assist EFL learners in mastering English. As many as 20 articles were used as the data sources in arranging this article. The researchers searched the articles using the keywords ‘podcast’ and ‘podcasting’. The difference between this article among previous studies is the focus on the use of podcasting for EFL learnings. The previous studies mostly discussed podcasts and podcasting for improving listening ability. The review found that podcasting is an interesting medium to be used in English learning. However, several challenges arise such as lack of technological competence, lack of vocabulary and grammar, unstable internet connection, and limited facilities. Consequently, it is advised that when using podcasts, teachers give their students appropriate direction on how to maximize their potential.

Abstract

Classroom management involves all endeavors aimed at establishing an efficient and pleasant teaching and learning environment that can inspire learners to learn effectively based on their abilities. It encompasses a range of intentional activities conducted by lecturers with the goal of establishing and sustaining optimal conditions for the teaching and learning process. This research investigates practical management strategies for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) speaking class. Semi-structured interviews and active classroom observation were employed to collect the data. Three EFL lecturers from the English Department of Universitas Darussalam Gontor who provided English speaking classes participated in this study. The objective was to look into the lecturers' viewpoints and management of speaking classes and to examine the strategies they employed and the challenges they experienced. The findings show that the lecturers had implemented a variety of strategies, including setting discipline, physical environment, encouraging more usage of English, offering engaging topics, speaking correction techniques, and building excitement for content. The results also revealed that the lecturers encountered difficulties to manage their teaching. Challenges such as improper pronunciation, learners' low self-esteem, and shortage of lexical resources were among the lecturers’ obstacles.

Abstract

This study explores students’ perceptions of the Daily English Songs program at Pesantren Walisongo Ngabar Female Campus during the 2024/2025 academic year. It addresses the need for effective, contextually relevant strategies to strengthen English proficiency within an Islamic boarding school environment in which global communication skills must be balanced with religious education. A descriptive qualitative design was employed, involving ten students from grades one through six selected via purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews and observations. The analysis followed the Miles and Huberman framework, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. Findings indicate that the program is an engaging method for supporting language learning. Students perceived the songs as effective tools for enhancing vocabulary acquisition, improving pronunciation, and providing entertainment to alleviate the monotony of dormitory life. While positive perceptions dominated, some students reported boredom due to the repetitive playback of the same songs, suggesting a need for more frequent rotation of material. The outcomes underscore the importance of creative educational media in a pesantren setting. By using songs with Islamic themes, the program successfully integrates international language mastery without compromising spiritual values. The study concludes that daily exposure to English music facilitates natural language internalization and increases students’ motivation.

Abstract

Vocabulary recognition plays a crucial role in identifying key information of spoken text in listening comprehension. This study aligns with Brown’s theory, which posits that listening involves bottom-up processing that requires learners to recognize and interpret sounds, words, and grammatical structures. This study aimed to examine how effectively the Listen A Minute website helped tenth-grade students of Secondary Level at Senior High School in Central Java recognize key words through listening exercises. A quasi-experimental approach with an experimental and control group was employed. The sample consisted of 60 tenth-grade students of Secondary Level at Senior High School in Central Java . The experiment used a material from the Listen A Minute website, while the control group received the conventional listening. Data were collected from pre- and post-test listening assessments, which were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Mann–Whitney U test. Results revealed a significant difference between the two groups, with a p-value of 0.003 (p 0.05). These findings reject the null hypothesis and support the alternative hypothesis. The findings indicated that students’ ability to identify keywords during listening tasks significantly improved when using the Listen A Minute website. Therefore, the website can be considered an effective pedagogical tool for improving listening comprehension, particularly in identifying key information in spoken texts.

Abstract

This study aims to identify various types of word-formation processes and their frequencies in English-language articles published in the Gontor magazine, and to explore their relevance to the teaching of writing skills in the context of English Language Teaching (ELT). The background of this study was the urgency of understanding word formation to enrich vocabulary mastery and morphological awareness among learners, particularly in Islamic educational settings. Such understanding significantly contributed to the development of writing skills through precise word choice, lexical diversity, and the composition of more accurate, formal, and coherent texts. The research adopted qualitative approach, particularly content analysis. Primary data consisting of word-formation processes were obtained from ten English articles in Gontor magazine. The data were then analyzed through stages of identification, classification, and description by applying Krippendorff’s content analysis theory and Yule’s classification of word formation. Frequency calculations were also employed to determine the most requently occuring processes. The findings identified five types of word formation processes with a total of 269 occurrences: derivation (69, 5%), borrowing (16, 3%), compounding (13, 01%), initialism (0, 7%), and multiple processes (0, 3%). Among these, derivation appeared as the most dominant type. The results indicated that understanding word formation contributes to vocabulary development and enhances writing quality through more organized and varied linguistic patterns. In addition, the dominance of formal linguistic forms and the absence of processes, such as coinage and blending, suggest that articles in Gontor magazine consistently employ an academic writing style. Therefore, the magaize can serve as a relevant teaching source for writing instruction in ELT, particularly within the context of Islamic education.

Abstract

Authentic evaluation is an assessment approach that emphasizes high-level thinking skills and students' ability to complete meaningful tasks that reflect real-world situations. In the context of reading learning in English, it is an important alternative to overcome the limitations of traditional evaluations that tend to only measure literal understanding. This study aims to describe the application of authentic evaluation in reading learning and identify the forms, strategies, and challenges of its implementation in a secondary school environment. This study applied a descriptive qualitative approach with English teachers and students as research subjects in a junior high school. Data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation of the assessment instruments used. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model including the stages of data reduction, data presentation (data display), and drawing conclusions/verification. The results of the study showed that teachers implemented authentic evaluation in various forms, such as text summaries, reading journals, written critical responses, and reading-based presentations. This was able to improve contextually students' reading comprehension in depth. However, several obstacles were found, such as time constraints and the need for objective assessment instruments. Strategies such as the use of rubrics and gradual training for students have proven effective in overcoming these obstacles. This study emphasizes the importance of authentic evaluation as a more meaningful assessment approach in learning reading.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the types and factors of students’ errors in pronouncing interdental and alveolar fricative sounds. The methodology of this research used descriptive qualitative with percentages. Interview guidance included a pronunciation test, questionnaire, and documentation utilized in this research as instruments. 7 out of 37 respondents were selected by purposive random sampling for the interview. Data analysis used three stages such as error identification, classification error, and explanation error. Then, to validate data used data triangulation. The result of this study revealed that students had deviation in all types of errors. Namely, the misformation of 1525 scores, the addition of 113 scores, the omission of 80 scores, and the misordering of 26 scores. All respondents obtained a moderate classification of pronunciation errors and the sound /θ/ of 79%, the sound /ð/ of 81%, and the sound /z/ of 84% included a high error percentage classification. Lastly, Students’ pronunciation errors are influenced by 3 categories of error sources, namely interlingual transfer, intralingual transfer, and context of learning.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between students' attitudes toward the use of peer-led discussions in grammar class and their academic performance. Peer-led discussions, recognized for promoting active participation and collaborative learning, have been increasingly integrated into language education. However, their effectiveness in enhancing grammar proficiency remains unclear. This research involves 35 students from an English Education Program in a grammar class, with attitudes assessed using a 4-point Likert scale. The findings indicate a generally neutral to slightly negative attitude, with an average score of 2.96. Correlation analysis reveals a very weak positive relationship (r = 0.047) between students' attitudes and their academic performance, which is statistically insignificant (p = 0.788). These results suggest that while the method may foster engagement, it does not significantly improve grammar learning outcomes. The study concludes that the current implementation of peer-led discussions may not effectively meet students' learning needs in grammar instruction. Recommendations for future research include exploring alternative formats that better align with grammar learning objectives and investigating factors that influence students' attitudes more comprehensively.
