Abstract

As English grows as a foreign language in Indonesia, which is rarely used daily, learning strategy training might be one innovation to help students acquire the target language quickly. This study aimed to research the implementation of learning strategy training in English camps and understand the effect of the training on the student’s ability to solve their learning problems, especially in speaking English. It was a qualitative design with a case study approach. This research was conducted in the English village of Kampung Inggris Pare. It limited the investigation of learning strategy training in English boardings or camps. Four participants consisting of three students and one instructor were selected purposely. The data were gathered by conducting direct observations, interviews, and photos. They were then analyzed in six steps starting from preparing raw data materials to interpreting the meaning of the theme into qualitative descriptions. The results show that the instructor trained two domains of students' soft skills: affective and cognitive. From the affective side, the instructor encouraged students' motivation to stay enthusiastic, not hesitate to speak, and are not scared of making mistakes. While from the cognitive side, the instructor trained students to learn English through their hobby or passion, such as through a song or movie for those who love music or watching. In fact, students could find and develop their own learning strategies based on their learning style and "let it flow" without paying more attention of grammar errors. Therefore, this study suggested teachers or instructors approach the students emotionally and train them to learn English with appropriate strategies based on their learning style or passion.

Abstract

This research focuses on the development and evaluation of the English for Cultural Voices coursebook, designed to integrate Indonesian folktales into English language teaching for secondary school students under Kurikulum Merdeka. The study explores how culturally contextualized materials can enhance language acquisition, promote cultural understanding, and foster autonomous learning. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the coursebook by gathering feedback from Indonesian English teachers regarding its content, structure, and applicability in real classroom settings. A qualitative research design using a case study approach was employed, with participants drawn from the Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP) community in Bangka Barat, Pangkal Pinang. Data were collected through document analysis, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and questionnaires. The document analysis focused on assessing the coursebook’s cultural relevance, structure, and content. FGDs provided in-depth insights into teachers' perceptions of the coursebook's impact on student engagement and language development, while questionnaires offered quantitative data on its effectiveness. The data were analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana’s framework for data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The study found that the coursebook significantly enhanced student engagement, improved speaking and vocabulary skills, and supported autonomous learning. However, challenges such as the complexity of narrative structures and limited access to technology were identified. This research contributes to the field of curriculum development by offering practical insights into the integration of cultural content and digital tools in language teaching
