Abstract

This investigation examines the phenomenon of foreign language reading anxiety experienced by first-semester Economics Development students at Universitas Negeri Makassar when engaging with specialized English economics texts. The research employed a modified version of Zoghy's Foreign Language Reading Anxiety (FLRA) scale to collect data from 95 respondents, measuring anxiety manifestations across four critical dimensions: text-related anxiety, language-related anxiety, comprehension-related anxiety, and performance-related anxiety. Statistical analysis demonstrated that these Economics Development students encounter moderate to high anxiety levels overall, with particularly elevated anxiety regarding performance evaluation and assessment situations. These findings highlight the necessity for language instructors at Universitas Negeri Makassar to develop and implement strategically targeted interventions addressing reading anxiety, with particular emphasis on alleviating performance-related stress while simultaneously enhancing linguistic competence. The study provides valuable insights into the specific challenges confronted by Economics Development students at Universitas Negeri Makassar as they navigate discipline-specific foreign language materials essential to their academic development.

Abstract

This study investigates how economics students use context clues and digital strategies to enhance vocabulary acquisition and reading comprehension in English for Specific Purposes (ESP). The research aims to identify students’ inference patterns, compare success rates across different types of clues, and analyse the relationship between contextual inference skills and overall comprehension. Using a quantitative descriptive design, data were collected from 85 randomly selected undergraduate economics students who completed ESP reading and vocabulary tasks through both printed and digital formats. Results indicate that students achieved the highest success with definition clues (72.4%) and contrast clues (68.9%), while example clues were the most challenging (47.2%). Pearson correlation analysis revealed a strong positive relationship between the utilisation of context clues and reading comprehension (r = 0.78, p < 0.01). Regression analysis further confirmed that definition and contrast clues were the strongest predictors of comprehension performance. Findings suggest that combining explicit instruction in context clue recognition with digital scaffolding—such as pop-up glossaries and annotation tools—can significantly improve ESP reading outcomes. These strategies help learners engage actively with specialised economic texts, enhance inferencing accuracy, and foster independent vocabulary learning. The study concludes that integrating digital literacy with traditional reading strategies is essential for developing effective ESP pedagogy in the digital era, supporting both linguistic and professional competencies of economics students.

Abstract

The integration of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in the field of economics within the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) context has become increasingly crucial in preparing students to navigate the global economic landscape. This narrative literature review examines recent developments in economic English instruction for EFL students during the period 2019-2024. Through systematic analysis of relevant publications, this study identifies key methodological trends, technological innovations, persistent challenges, and effective solutions in economic ESP instruction. The findings reveal a significant shift toward task-based learning approaches, increased integration of digital technology, and emphasis on authentic materials. Primary challenges include specialized vocabulary acquisition, academic writing skills, and confidence in professional communication. This review concludes with recommendations for educators and researchers in developing more effective economic ESP curricula.

Abstract

Penggunaan media digital dalam pendidikan mengalami perkembangan pesat seiring dengan kemajuan teknologi informasi. Dalam pembelajaran bahasa asing, termasuk Bahasa Jerman, media digital tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai alat komunikasi tetapi juga menjadi instrumen instruksional yang memudahkan proses pembelajaran. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis penggunaan media digital sebagai alat komunikasi instruksional dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Jerman. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kajian pustaka dengan mengkaji penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya mengenai efektivitas media digital dalam pembelajaran bahasa. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa media digital, seperti aplikasi pembelajaran, video pembelajaran, dan platform kolaboratif, efektif dalam meningkatkan motivasi belajar, kemampuan komunikasi, dan keterampilan bahasa siswa. Dengan demikian, media digital menjadi alat yang penting dalam mendukung pembelajaran Bahasa Jerman di era digital.
