Due to the many potential benefits and drama can offer in language learning, there has been a growing interest to use drama in ESL/EFL classrooms. However, the practice still causes many difficulties to both teachers and students due to several factors. This article reviews current theories and research findings on the use of drama in ESL/EFL teaching and learning to provide a better understanding of the use of drama to facilitate learning in EFL classrooms. It begins with current theories behind drama use in English learning. This section tries to clarify what drama is in the context of ESL/EFL, what benefits it offers, and what challenges teachers potentially meet.

Abstract

The concepts of EFL learners’ perceptions of online learning in current literature were generated by research conducted before and amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the different status of online learning post-COVID-19, these concepts might have been unfashionable. This explanatory sequential mixed methods study aimed to uncover pre-service EFL teachers’ perceptions of asynchronous online learning (AOL) and synchronous online learning (SOL) post-COVID-19 pandemic to fill in the gap. Involving 34 pre-service EFL teachers at Universitas Kristen Indonesia, data were collected and triangulated using a survey and a semi-structured interview. The results revealed that the participants had positive perceptions of AOL and SOL. However, their perception of AOL was higher in terms of engagement, interaction, collaboration, and advantages than that of SOL. The latter was higher only in social presence, indicating the AOL’s superiority over SOL. The participants also believed that, if designed well and supported by high-quality tools, an internet connection, and bandwidth, both AOL and SOL can facilitate a robust learning environment for EFL learning and teaching. Thus, future research should focus on instructional designs of both AOL and SOL (or their combination) that can optimize their power for delivering learning materials and experiences.

Abstract

Abstrak Artikel ini mengulas fenomena otonomi pembelajar dalam konteks pembelajaran bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing di Indonesia. Otonomi pelajar telah menjadi topik yang signifikan dalam pendidikan bahasa baru-baru ini sebagai hasil dari penekanan pada refleksi dan tanggung jawab pelajar untuk proses belajarnya sendiri. Banyak guru bahasa, di sisi lain, yang berkomitmen pada pemusatan dan otonomi pembelajar, berjuang dalam hal bagaimana memelihara otonomi pembelajar atau setidaknya untuk mewujudkan konsep otonomi pembelajar di kelas bahasa terutama dalam konteks pembelajaran saat ini yang telah bergeser dari pembelajaran tatap muka menjadi pembelajaran online, dan kini mulai berubah menjadi pembelajaran tatap muka dan atau blended learning. Tujuan studi ini adalah untuk mengulas permasalahan dan cara untuk membentuk otonomi pembelajar di kelas bahasa Inggris. Kesimpulannya, membentuk pembelajar otonom dalam lingkungan pembelajaran bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing harus mempertimbangkan prinsip-prinsip pembelajaran otonom. Pendampingan guru tidak boleh absen selama proses pembelajaran bahasa melainkan memfasilitasi proses tersebut, walaupun inti dari belajar otonom adalah menuntut peserta didik untuk belajar secara mandiri. Kata kunci: pembelajar otonom, Bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing, pembelajaran online Abstract The paper focuses on learner autonomy in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning context in Indonesia. Learner autonomy has become an essential topic in recent language education due to an emphasis on learner reflection and taking responsibility for one’s learning processes. Many language teachers who are committed to learner-centeredness and autonomy struggle with how to nurture student autonomy or at the very least to promote the concept of learner autonomy in the language classroom, especially in the current context of learning which has shifted from face-to-face to online learning, and now starting to change into face-to-face and or blended learning. The study’s objective is to ascertain the ways and issues shaping learner autonomy in EFL online classrooms. In conclusion, shaping autonomous learners in an EFL environment should consider the principles of autonomous learning. Teachers’ assistance should not be absent during the language learning process but facilitate the process, even though the essence of autonomous learning is to require learners to learn independently.
