Abstract

The present study aims to examine the current practices, constraints, and potential enablers when assessing students' listening skills in Indonesian Islamic higher education EFL classrooms. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study research design. The selection of the participants used purposive sampling. The study used interviews as a data gathering technique, involving six EFL lecturers in one Indonesian Islamic higher education institution in South Sulawesi. The findings show participants’ awareness of the various alternative methods to assess students’ listening skills. However, their discussions tend to focus on what is easiest to use as opposed to what matters most for students’ listening skills. Furthermore, participants’ descriptions of EFL lecturers’ constraints in assessing listening skills encompass various educational aspects, which could be classified into resources and practical constraints. The former includes a lack of representative language laboratories and learning resources for conducting quality listening assessment practices. The latter relates to time constraints, auditory surroundings, and designing and developing listening assessment instruments. Therefore, the participants raised several key strategies to enhance quality listening assessment practices, ranging from resources to practical strategies. This includes a high quality and sufficient quantity of educational resources, the use of diverse and authentic assessment tasks, and more collaborative work to share best practices and experience in conducting quality listening assessment practices. These findings imply the need for reformulation of existing practices and policies related to foreign language assessment that could have significant impacts on EFL students, teachers, and classrooms.

Abstract

The integration of technology in subtitling practices has become increasingly significant, with various tools enhancing the quality and efficiency of audiovisual translation. Among these tools, Aegisub software stands out as a popular choice, particularly among fansub translators, due to its user-friendly interface and rich features. This study aims to explore the implementation of Aegisub in a subtitling course at the English Literature Department of UIN Alauddin, focusing on the experiences of fifth-semester students. Utilizing a qualitative approach, data were collected through classroom observations, interviews, and questionnaires, allowing for a comprehensive analysis of the students' challenges and successes while using the software. The findings reveal that while students effectively applied Aegisub to create subtitles, they encountered both technical and linguistic challenges. Technical issues included timing, typesetting, and codifying, while linguistic difficulties involved diction choices, equivalence, and translation strategies. Despite these challenges, the software's compatibility with various operating systems and its easy-to-follow instructions contributed to increased student motivation and engagement in subtitling tasks. This study highlights the dual nature of Aegisub as a valuable educational tool that not only facilitates learning but also presents challenges that need to be addressed for optimal use in audiovisual translation education
