Abstract

From the perspective of Activity Theory (AT), this study demonstrates the existence of motivational strategies and influencing factors acknowledged by English Education students to acquire public speaking skills. Subject, object, outcome, tools, community, rules, and division of labor are all components of Activity Theory (AT). This mixed-method study examines the learning experiences of English Education students in relation to AT components. This study included 16 English Education students. The researchers collected data using questionnaires and interviews. The study found that students used a variety of strategies. They were basically forcing themselves to speak, practicing with their peers, and self-practicing (division of labor). The students reported their happiness with the public speaking class learning process (object). The lecturer's varied learning sources also helped the students succeed in class (tools). Their classmates and lecturer aided and supported them positively (community . There were their obligations in the class were made to manage the class (rules). As a result, English Education departments should promote students' motivation in mastering language skills. Future researchers are encouraged to study language skills acquired by language students in a broader context and with more participants. Keywords:  English Education,            Public Speaking Skills, Activity Theory Perspective

Abstract

Empirical studies drawn from a Foucauldian discourse analysis suggest the complexity of policy implementations. Policy construction and implementation involve a set of different stakeholders, causing many competing agendas from different bodies to interfere with the processes and making policy outcomes highly unpredictable. This study was set to investigate how high school student enrolment zoning policy in Indonesia was represented in major online daily journals, specifically during the two months of June and July 2019. The latest enrolment zoning policy has been considered to be too disruptive among both parents and schools. Utilizing a discourse analysis, this paper attempted to reveal what issues were addressed and what agendas or powers were contested. In this discourse analysis, it is found that the three online journals as the resources of the study were not strong enough in presenting the news. All of them have not discussed the student’s aspect as the implementer of the zoning policy.

Abstract

From a Bourdieuan perspective, the production of knowledge in the form of empirical studies validates the symbolic power of certain groups. It is arguably proposed that the more empirical studies published in particular groups of people, the more robust the symbolic power of the respective group is. This study is set to reveal the degree of academic productivity of East Nusa Tenggara as a symbolic power owned by scholars in the area, as demonstrated by empirical studies conducted to investigate educational issues in the area. Two research questions were proposed namely: (1) what areas of inquiries did the researchers pursue; and (2) what are their major findings? Sixty-four scholarly articles related to the English learning-teaching (published from 2016 to 2021) were analyzed using document analysis methods to identify the most up-to-date research themes. The results indicated that teaching strategies and material developments are the highest numbers with 41 articles; factors that affect the English language learning were 14 articles; the teaching competencies were 4 articles, and the perception of English learning-teaching were 5 articles. The conclusion is that academic production is low, cross-validating that low symbolic power correlates to more concrete components (i.e., a high degree of poverty).

Abstract

To fill the gap and add literature on systematic reflections in the area of teacher identity developments, this research, which is a part of a larger case study, described how reflection class followed by pre-service teachers of English language in a teacher development program in Indonesia (PPG Pra-jabatan) was conducted. Using a single case study with embedded design and multiple data sources (observations, interviews, and document analysis), this research found that in its effort to help pre-service teachers' identity development, the reflection class followed a certain procedure that comprises of two phases (i.e. reflection phase and publication preparation phase). In addition, this research also found some protocols that were adhered by the reflection class (i.e. involving social reflection, providing a safe and secure learning environment, feedback provision to the reflections, and giving appropriate prompts). This research recommends the teacher education and teacher professional development programs give more attention to how reflection is conducted. In particular, it is suggested that some protocols of conducting a good reflection are considered so that the pre-service teachers can make the most of the reflective activities.

Abstract

Good reading skills are related to individual basic skills in achieving success and prosperity. However, reading skills in Indonesia are still low. The evidence was from the PISA results, which revealed little progress from 2015 to 2018. In tackling this problem, one of the schools in Indonesia, the Junior High Public School (JHPS) 1 Muntilan, responded it by creating Literacy Online program (henceforth LION) to support government programs. Research on reading ability has been extensively done, but no study investigates the LION program. Therefore, this study aimed to discover the perceptions and challenges of teachers who have a pivotal role in the success of the LION program at JHPS 1 Muntilan. This study employed mixed-method research to get the data. The data was collected by providing a closed-ended questionnaire and interviews. The results of the study revealed that the teachers felt enthusiastic, enjoyed, affectionate, and comfortable with implementing LION. Moreover, the teachers revealed that theprogram gave a spark of hope and excitement for students toward learning autonomy.  The students were found to have evolved to more actively respond to the questions following the reading materials. Accordingly, this could lead to the success of the National Assessment. Interestingly, the teachers felt overwhelmed and confused when facing passive students and had limited knowledge to give proper readings.

Abstract

This study explored the challenges and the way how the teachers cope with their challenges. This study is a qualitative study which employed a narrative inquiry. Six participants from two different schools in NTT were participated in this study. They were English teachers, German teacher, mathematics teacher, history teacher and Geography teacher. In gathering the data, the researcher did a deep interview with the participants through Whatsapp voice note. In analyzing the data, the researcher did an interview transcript to note the participants’ responses. The researcher found that the participants had some difficulties in doing online learning such as their own ability about technology, students’ participation, students’ devices and ineffective learning. From those difficulties, they have a good self regulation to make a management time in order to make an effective learning and motivate the students to ignore their boredom. However, there was still a teacher who still had lack self efficacy since she had low ability in applying the technology devices in online learning. She had less confidence in doing online learning.

Abstract

The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum is the national curriculum currently in use. However, alternative curricula can also develop in Indonesia. One of the schools that implements this alternative curriculum is Eksperimental Mangunan JHS, Yogyakarta, which has Mangunan pedagogy. Due to COVID-19, post-modernist schools must implement distance learning and have learning experiences with technology. A qualitative method with a semi-structured interview approach to related parties was used to obtain the required data. The Merdeka Belajar and Mangunan Pedagogy curricula are based on democratic education; the difference is that Mangunan schools provide character and environmental education. Besides, the use of technology is carried out in this school following the post-pandemic situation. However, this school does not digitalize education but continues to acclimate to the context of students' educational needs.

Abstract

Teacher agency in facing new national curriculum shifts has been a topic discussed widely around the world, as many nations implement curriculum shifts and transitions. Indonesia has also in its early years implemented the new national curriculum called Freedom-to-Learn Curriculum. This study is aimed at exploring the agency of language teachers of public junior high schools in two different towns in Java Island, Indonesia. Employing the ecological approach by Priestley, Biesta, and Robinson (2015) which supported the interplay and dynamics of iterative, practical-evaluative, and projective dimensions, this qualitative study brings into play the semi-structured and focus group discussion data-gathering techniques. Six teachers participated in this study. The finding showed that the level of agency was diverse ranging from high (demonstrated by three research participants), emerging (demonstrated by one participant), and low (participated by two participants). Future researchers might examine the teacher agency by involving more participants as well as capture the robust study of language teacher agencies from other parts of Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the symbolism of water in the Gospel of John, revealing its role in disclosing Jesus’ identity and message. Through word study, literature analysis, and qualitative methods, the research examines narratives involving the term “water”, incorporating insights from Jewish and Christian traditions. The findings suggest that water symbolizes the Holy Spirit, rebirth, new life, and other spiritual meanings within the Fourth Gospel. This analysis offers valuable insights for readers interested in the symbolic use of water in John’s Gospel and provides believers with a deeper understanding of its theological significance. By examining how water serves as a profound narrative device, the study illustrates how the Gospel of John employs this element to bridge the literal and the spiritual, emphasizing the essence of Jesus’ mission and the transformative power of faith. This research contributes to the broader understanding of Johannine symbolism, highlighting the intricate ways in which simple elements like water can convey complex theological themes and spiritual truths.
