Abstract

Recent studies in academic writing have used coaching to develop specific skills and affective variables. There are limited studies on coaching academic writing using genre pedagogy (GP) with adult learners, specifically Indonesian EFL teachers. This study investigated how academic writing coaching activities (AWCA) that implement GP could help develop the writing skills of public school teachers in Ketapang Regency, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. This qualitative case study involved fifty-seven participants who attended the coaching. Data obtained from participant observations and open-ended questionnaires were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis, and the participants’ texts were analyzed using genre analysis. The analysis results were triangulated to obtain valid findings. The results show that scaffolding, explicit teaching, and customized teaching stages could help develop the participants' writing skills. Then, the participants’ texts followed the schematic structure of the academic genre and implemented relevant linguistic features. These findings provide insight into how genre-based academic writing activities could enhance public school teachers' writing skills who are adult learners, an area with scant research. Furthermore, it is proposed that this methodology be applied across different regions and abroad to better assess its effects on the professional growth of teachers.

Abstract

Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui problematia yang dihadapi guru Pendidikan Agama dan Budi Pekerti dalam mengembangkan modul ajar di SDIT Qurrata A’yun 3 Limakaum Tanah Datar.

Analisis data dilakukan melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Keabsahan data diuji melalui teknik triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menjelaskan bahwa tidak ditemukan kesulitan yang berarti dalam mengembangkan modul ajar karena guru Pendidikan Agama dan Budi Pekerti sering mengikuti pelatihan dan seminar mengenai pengembangan modul ajar oleh sekolah dan mandiri. Kegiatan pelatihan dan seminar ini menjadi perhatian dan prioritas bagi sekolah karena memang sekolah ini ditunjuk sebagai pilot proyek penerapan kurikulum merdeka di sekolah di Tanah Datar. Selain itu, sekolah Islam terpadu ini berada dalam naungan Jaringan Sekolah Islam Terpadu (JSIT) yang memiliki visi dan misi pendidikan Islam yang terintegrasi atau terpadu yang sesuai dengan kurikulum merdeka.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of using Grammarly in enhancing the grammatical competence of first-semester students in the English Education Program at Universitas PGRI Pontianak. The research employs an experimental method with a pretest-posttest design. The population consists of 160 first-year prospective English teachers, divided into four classes (A to D). The sample, Class A morning, was selected through cluster random sampling after ensuring that all classes were statistically homogeneous in terms of initial ability. Data analysis was conducted using a paired sample t-test via SPSS.

Abstract

This descriptive study examined metacognitive awareness levels among students in the English Education Study Program at IKIP PGRI Pontianak. Using a cross-sectional survey, data was collected from 420 students across various academic years and backgrounds. The Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI) by Schraw & Dennison (1994), consisting of 52 items across eight indicators and two main factors, was used to assess students' metacognitive skills. Analysis with descriptive statistics revealed that 86% of the students reported a high level of metacognitive awareness. This is significant as metacognitive awareness is linked to academic success, such as higher-grade point averages. The most frequently reported indicators were Debugging Strategies, Conditional Knowledge, and Evaluation, while Information Management Strategies emerged as the least used. Notably, students scored lower on items related to remembering information and using visual aids like diagrams. These results highlight both strengths and areas for growth in students' metacognitive awareness, highlighting specific skills that could be further developed to enhance their academic performance.
