Abstract

Parental involvement is a critical driver of student motivation and achievement worldwide, yet its specific role in fostering intrinsic motivation among Indonesian learners of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) remains underexplored. This systematic review examines 13 empirical studies published between 2019 and 2024, identifying five principal themes of parental engagement: academic support and resource provision, emotional and motivational involvement, parental beliefs and expectations, home environment and external influences, and learner autonomy with motivational outcomes. The analysis shows that parents who actively participate, providing resources, encouragement, and positive beliefs, significantly strengthen their children’s self-driven interest and persistence in English learning. Moreover, a supportive and stimulating home environment, alongside opportunities for autonomy, are found to be decisive factors in sustaining intrinsic motivation. The findings highlight the multifaceted mechanisms through which parental behaviors enable Indonesian EFL learners to internalize the value of English proficiency, emphasizing the necessity for educational policies and parental engagement programs that strategically cultivate these motivational pathways. Ultimately, leveraging these insights can enhance both instructional practices and learners’ long-term language outcomes.

Abstract

This study examined linguistic error patterns in the descriptive writing of 50 second language learners, using a mixed-methods approach that combined quantitative error counts with qualitative analysis of coherence and clarity. A total of 253 errors were identified across student responses to prompts such as “banana,” “cat,” and “tiger.” Grammar errors were the most frequent (57 cases, 22.5%), particularly subject–verb agreement and tense misuse, followed by sentence structure (51 cases, 20.2%) and spelling errors (51 cases, 20.2%), with punctuation (50 cases, 19.8%) and capitalization (44 cases, 17.4%) somewhat less common. Correlation analysis revealed grammar (r = –.70), punctuation (r = –.65), and sentence structure (r = –.63) as the strongest predictors of diminished writing quality, while spelling and capitalization played secondary roles. Qualitative evidence confirmed that grammar, punctuation, and structure errors disrupted logical flow and obscured meaning, whereas spelling and capitalization mainly reduced surface polish. These findings, consistent with L2 writing scholarship (Bitchener, 2012; Ellis, 2016), underscore the centrality of grammatical and structural accuracy for coherence in descriptive texts. Pedagogically, the study recommends targeted grammar instruction, punctuation and sentence boundary practice, and genre-based scaffolding, complemented by digital feedback tools and peer review, to enhance students’ ability to produce coherent and reader-friendly descriptive writing.
