Abstract

Science students are known miserable in coping very well with language, especially English. This study searched for the truth of this proposition by evaluating the formative test items for senior high-school level used in a science-based school in Aceh, Indonesia. The sources of this study were 150 questions and 35 students’ answers on the pertaining tests for three different grades. The objective of this study was to find out the item facility and distractors’ efficiency of each test item used for science students in their formative test. Methodology deployed was qualitative approach using content analysis in the scope of finding the item facility and distractors’ efficiency for the test items. The result depicted that 84% of the items are in the ‘easy’ index, and 11% in ‘moderate’ index, and 4% ‘difficult’ index. Then, the data show that only 17% of the distractors’ are efficient. The conclusion is that the formative test items are, indeed, easy for science students but with one condition: most of the distractors do not work properly for their cognitive level.

Abstract

PISA’s result in 2016 shows that Indonesian country score in reading, 397, is still below PISA average score, 493. Although the rank increased, the below-average score denotes that the students are still less literate while reading is vital to all scholars. Most higher education students still encounter difficulties when reading, per se reading is profoundly essential in academes. This study is devoted to shed light on intrapersonal difficulties that higher students face in reading. Qualitative research method was employed involving 83 Economics students at Syiah Kuala University. The data collection process was carried out through questionnaire and interview procedures after which the data were analyzed using three-steps analysis. The result suggests that 91.5% of the students has difficulties in retention—where they tend to fail retrieving just-obtained information, discharge information found in passage(s) with prior knowledge, and cannot relate the information with real life experiences. Then 87% has comprehension difficulty where they are not optimally engaged while reading, confused with contextual meanings, main ideas and supporting details, and about what to expect from passage(s). Finally, 12% faces problems in decoding (regardless of Dyslexic symptoms) for which they still read word-by-word and occasionally despise punctuations. Generally, it leads to a discussion that problems in concentrating promote problems in memory-processing. The authors would gently suggest students to be trained to monitor and regulate their metacognitive ability during reading.

Abstract

As most students admitted that their problem in reading was mainly regarding vocabulary, the authors were drawn to a premise that there must be a stronger underpinning explanation leading to such comprehension gap in reading. This study aimed at finding out a specific root-problem faced by EFL learners when performing reading, which are the mechanic skills of reading. This study was conducted using qualitative approach—case study design. The respondents were 55 college students in Aceh, Indonesia who were sophomores in Economics and Business faculty. The data were collected from September-December 2019. The data source was a weekly individual checklist based on the mechanical reading framework, namely: phonic-phonemic awareness-vocabulary-fluency-comprehension to find out which problem they repeatedly faced during the reading process. From 14 meetings, it was calculated that 54 students mostly faced fluency problem which means that they know the semantic and literal meaning of a certain word but struggle with the sense of the word. Later, the problem faced was comprehension which was faced by 20 students. Then, the problem of vocabulary was experienced by 16 students. And the least problem faced is phonemic problem which was faced by 1 student only.

Abstract

This study investigates how the SPEAK-BOT framework shapes group dynamics and collaborative interaction quality in EFL speaking pedagogy. Tthis study addresses the underexplored social dimension of language learning. Specifically, it examines how chatbot-generated prompts, when embedded in a pedagogical framework, influence turn-taking, elaboration, responsiveness, and cohesion during group discussions. A qualitative research design was employed with 20 third-semester English education students at Universitas Teuku Umar, Indonesia. The Students were organized into four small groups and engaged in structured speaking tasks that required consulting chatbot prompts as discussion starters. The instruments used in this research were an audio recorder for data collection, a thematic coding framework for discourse analysis, and a rubric-based scoring sheet to evaluate participants’ performance. The data were analyzed using discourse analysis and rubric-based scoring supported by descriptive statistics. The findings revealed a clear variation across groups. One group achieved very high interaction quality, marked by equal participation, deep elaboration, and strong cohesion. Two groups performed moderately, each showing strengths in some dimensions but gaps in others. One group demonstrated weak collaboration, relying heavily on chatbot output and producing fragmented discussions. The results suggest that the SPEAK-BOT framework has the potential to foster richer collaboration when learners use AI critically, but risks weakening interaction when prompts are adopted passively. The study contributes by reframing AI not as a substitute for peer dialogue but as a pedagogical mediator that can strengthen collaborative speaking pedagogy.
