Abstract

This study aims to analyze the reliability of the thesis assessment instrument using Generalizability Theory (G-Theory).  This research is a quantitative study that applies G-Theory. G-Theory is unique and useful in evaluating the sources of actual variance and error in any measurement design. Thus, G-Theory contributes to improving reliability and validity in assessment. In this study, data were collected using a thesis assessment instrument that had been tested on thesis assessments conducted at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Jambi.  G-Theory analysis in this study includes several main points, namely G-Study, Optimization (D-Study), and G-facets analysis. The results of the analysis show that the assessment instrument has a fairly high level of reliability with a G coefficient of 0.78. This indicates that the instrument can be used effectively in the thesis assessment. In addition, based on the results of the analysis carried out, recommendations were obtained to reassess item number two, increase the number of raters to six people to increase the reliability of the instrument to 0.80 to meet the satisfactory category. The resulting recommendations can be used by developers to improve the reliability of instruments in future assessment activities. This research is also expected to be a reference for future researchers in applying G-Theory in analyzing the reliability of measurement instruments.

Abstract

The current study aims to find out the EFL learners’ major problems in pronouncing words of English and to explore the potential of AI technologies especially Google Pronunciation as a supportive tool for pronunciation improvement in secondary school settings. It measures the effectiveness of the tool in improving their pronunciation based on the class observation, pre- and post-assessment outcomes and according to the students’ perceptions. The study comprised 6 secondary high school students covering 2 low performers, 2 mediocre performers, and 2 high performers at English Club in one of the schools in Jambi, Indonesia. The participants were intentionally nominated based on their availability and readiness to provide recorded answers for the research purposes. A qualitative-descriptive research method was employed through a deep-interview to examine their major difficulties in pronunciations and their perspectives toward the tool. The results show that the learners’ chief pronunciation difficulties are both in segmental and suprasegmental features namely the sounds of /θ/ and /ð/, past simple sounds, and also stressed syllables. Their overall perceptions towards the use of the tool own more positive impacts as their pronunciation improves. Despite its effectiveness, the instrument is suggested to be used only for basic or standard pronunciation learning. For being natural in English pronunciation, the tool cannot perform much better than human teachers because it has limited accents and its phones sound too formal. Additionally, the tool is expected to advance the technology's adaptability to diverse accents and linguistic backgrounds, ensuring more inclusive and equitable learning experiences for all EFL learners.

Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the types of presupposition used in the film Barbie (2023), directed by Greta Gerwig. Drawing on Yule’s (1996) typology—existential, factive, lexical, non-factive, structural, and counterfactual—this research applies a descriptive qualitative method supported by a pragmatic discourse analysis approach. The data consists of selected utterances from the film’s official script, verified through repeated viewing. A total of 67 presuppositional expressions were found, with 27 data points analyzed in depth. Results reveal existential presupposition as the most dominant, typically triggered by definite noun phrases and possessive constructions. These findings demonstrate how presupposition shapes implicit meaning, enhances character development, and subtly conveys sociocultural messages in audiovisual narratives. The study contributes to pragmatic research on film discourse by uncovering how language structures perception and interaction in fictional contexts.

Abstract

This study examines the role of impromptu speaking in enhancing spontaneous communication skills among university EFL students. The research aims to identify the primary challenges students encounter during impromptu speech and the strategies they utilize before, during, and after the activity. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations involving 44 sixth-semester English major students at Universitas Jambi. Instruments included interview guides and observation checklists. The findings indicate that the main difficulties experienced by students are limited vocabulary, anxiety, poor sentence organization, and unfamiliarity with topics. To address these challenges, students employed various communication strategies, such as simplifying vocabulary, using synonyms, managing anxiety through breathing techniques, and drawing on personal experiences. Post-speech strategies involved vocabulary expansion through reading, regular practice of spontaneous speaking, and seeking peer feedback. The study concludes that despite inherent challenges, impromptu speaking is an effective tool for promoting speaking fluency, confidence, and practical communicative competence. It is recommended that EFL instructors incorporate impromptu speaking activities into their curricula, providing on-going support and strategic guidance to foster students' competence and confidence in speaking.

Abstract

Pesatnya perkembangan dan kemajuan teknologi saat ini berdampak pada peningkatan jumlah pengguna information and communication technology (ICT). Perkembangan teknologi tersebut melahirkan berbagai macam aplikasi yang dapat dimanfaatkan dalam konteks pembelajaran. Namun, perkembangan teknologi tersebut tidak dibarengi dengan peningkatan kompetensi guru dalam mengintegrasikan teknologi terhadap pembelajaran. Kondisi ini disebabkan karena guru kurang termotivasi dan tidak mendapatkan pengetahuan serta skills yang cukup untuk memanfaatkan aplikasi-aplikasi pembelajaran tersebut. Kegiatan pelatihan yang dilaksanakan ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kompetensi guru dalam memanfaatkan Aplikasi Teknologi sebagai media pembelajaran digital sekaligus menghasilkan artikel ilmiah sebagai hasil dari pengabdian kepada masyarakat yang dilakukan. Pelatihan ini dilaksanakan secara tatap muka di sekolah menengah negeri di Kabupaten Muaro Jambi dengan agenda dan materi yang telah disiapkan oleh tim pengabdian. Jumlah peserta yang hadir dalam pelatihan ini sebanyak 50 orang guru yang berasal dari 4 sekolah berbeda yang berada di sekitar tempat pelaksanaan kegiatan.

Abstract

The media plays a crucial role in shaping public understanding of international conflicts through strategic linguistic choices that can reveal underlying ideological positions. This study aims to analyze how social actors in the Palestine-Israel conflict after October 7, 2023, are represented in the English-language news coverage of Al Jazeera, USA Today, and The Jakarta Post. Using Critical Discourse Analysis with a focus on van Leeuwen's Social Actor Representation framework, the research examined fifteen news articles published between October 2023 and May 2024 to identify patterns of inclusion and exclusion strategies employed by each news outlet. Findings revealed that Al Jazeera actively portrays both Hamas and Israeli forces as primary agents while occasionally depersonalizing individuals through collectivization; USA Today tends to exclude individual Palestinian actors through indeterminate references while representing Israeli actors more often as collective entities; and The Jakarta Post explicitly names key figures from both sides, personalizing the conflict while emphasizing their opposing roles. These varying representation strategies reflect different editorial approaches that influence how responsibility, agency, and legitimacy are attributed in conflict reporting, ultimately shaping public perception and discourse around the complex geopolitical situation.

Abstract

The increasing number of international students in Indonesia's higher education sector urges institutions to improve the quality of their services, facilities, and education. The teaching and learning environment is critical, encompassing the effectiveness of instructional methods, classroom interactions, and the academic support systems provided by the university. Additionally, their socio-experiences, including integration into the campus community and interactions with peers, play a crucial role in their overall well-being and academic success. This study aims to explore the life and academic experiences of international students in undergraduate International Programs at the University of Jambi in Indonesia. This research employed a mixed-method approach, combining a questionnaire adapted from the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) and in-depth interviews, with a total of 13 international students from international classrooms participating in the study. The research highlights significant challenges for international students at the University of Jambi, including inadequate classroom and laboratory facilities, poor lighting, and insufficient resources, particularly in Animal Sciences and Agriculture. Language barriers due to Indonesian being the primary medium of instruction further hinder learning. Students express high dissatisfaction with services such as insurance, health facilities, extracurricular activities, and counseling, though library services are well-regarded. Recommendations include adopting English for instruction, providing bilingual training for lecturers, and improving infrastructure and student services to enhance the overall academic experience for international students

Abstract

The current study aims is to investigate the perceptions and expectations of English as a foreign language (EFL) university students regarding the usage of information and communication technology (ICT) in English language learning. This study also investigates the frequency of ICT use among EFL university students for both general and English learning purposes. A convergent parallel mixed methods design was used in this study. Two instruments were used to collect data they are, an online questionnaire and semi-structured interview. A total of 337 students participated in the online questionnaire. A Semi-structured interview was used to gather in-depth information to follow up on the questionnaire to 10 participants purposefully selected who answered the questionnaire with a set of criteria; participants agree to be interviewed; the participants’ mean score of survey result is >3. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively, and the qualitative data were analyzed and coded thematically. The findings indicated that students spend more time using ICT for general objectives (e.g. social media and entertainment) than for English study. They did, however, demonstrate favorable attitudes regarding the utilization of ICT for English language learning. Furthermore, they intended the campus to provide adequate technological facilities and internet access in each classroom to assist the learning process. Students believe that ICT can assist them enhance their English language skills. As a result, teachers should incorporate more ICT into their English language instruction.
