Abstract

This study seeks to analyze and synthesize empirical studies on the use of mobile technology in English language teaching. The following criteria were used to select the research articles for this study: (1) peer-reviewed studies, (2) the field of the study must be the implication of MALL, (3) published within the last five years, and (4) studies must be in Asian context. A total of twenty-five published research articles were reviewed in terms of research design, learning context, participant, and settings. The electronic searches for these studies were conducted using search engine databases (e.g., ERIC and Google Scholars) as well as some reputable journal websites (e.g. link.springer.com). The results showed that most of the studies reviewed are mixed-methods and were mainly conducted in Indonesia. The finding also revealed four common topics including the use of MALL was motivating, increasing students’ performances, supporting language learning, and the challenges students face due to Mobile Assisted Language Learning. Overall, the findings indicated that Mobile Assisted Language Learning had a positive impact on the educational context, particularly in English language teaching.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and synthesize empirical research on students' reading comprehension challenges within English language teaching. A systematic review method selected 20 peer-reviewed articles published within the last five years. The selected studies were analyzed based on their research topics, designs, and theoretical frameworks. The findings reveal that most studies adopt a descriptive qualitative approach, with a strong focus on the Indonesian context. Four key challenges in reading comprehension were identified: (1) limitations of textbooks in supporting effective reading, (2) low student motivation and engagement, (3) inadequate vocabulary knowledge, and (4) slow reading pace. Based on these findings, it is recommended that future research explore the effectiveness of specific interventions and instructional strategies to address these challenges, ultimately improving students' reading comprehension skills. Such strategies could include the use of more engaging and relevant reading materials, vocabulary enhancement techniques, and methods to improve reading speed, with the goal of enhancing students' overall reading comprehension skills.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of YouTube Kids content, particularly "Little Baby Bum" on English vocabulary acquisition among 7-year-old children. A qualitative case study was conducted with two participants: AR (7 years 5 months) and AF (7 years 9 months), both enrolled in English language lessons. Data were gathered through observations, semi-structured interviews, and vocabulary assessments before and after the intervention. AR, who watched an average of 4 hours per day and engaged actively with the content, recognized 9 out of 16 English words tested, while AF, with 3 hours of daily viewing and more passive engagement, recognized only 6 words. However, AF showed stronger retention in Indonesian vocabulary, recognizing 10 words compared to AR’s 7. The study's discussion identifies five key themes: (1) Exposure to Digital Content: Increased exposure to digital content appears to support vocabulary development, especially with active engagement. (2) Parental Supervision: Effective supervision ensures focused learning and appropriate content. (3) Engagement Level: Active participation, such as singing along, is critical for retention. (4) Language Retention: Vocabulary retention is higher in the language where the child is more engaged. (5) Active Participation: Active involvement in content is crucial for effective learning. The pedagogical implications highlight that interactive digital media like "Little Baby Bum" can be a valuable tool in English language teaching, particularly when combined with active engagement and proper parental guidance. These findings provide important insights for educators and parents on optimizing digital media use in supporting children's language development.
