Abstract

The demand from students for native English speakers as interlocutors justifies the importance of this research. Because of the nation's location and financial constraints, speaking course participants are said to lack experience speaking with native speakers. Gaining a tangible understanding of how AI Replika can be used to replace native speakers’ role in becoming students’ source of native speaker is the anticipated outcome of this project. This study investigates the benefits and difficulties of using AI Replika in speaking classes. With the help of AI Replika, students may practice speaking English in real time or directly with the use of artificial intelligence. The features used by students can be either chatbot or speaking robot. This study used a descriptive qualitative methodology. A case study methodology is applied. Interviewing and participant observation were employed as data collection methods. Three basic types of triangulations are used in data validity techniques: theoretical, methodological, and source data triangulation. Based on the results, it shows that AI replica can be used as the alternative on the absence of native speaker in practicing speaking. However, the role of teachers in the classroom still cannot be replaced by the AI. Students feel that although AI Replika brings benefit for them to practice speaking before class, however, they still need teachers to explain the context of the speaking content. Students also feel that the AI Replika brings more literal meaning of an idea rather than able to understand the cultural meaning behind the talk. In the end, AI technology can improve language acquisition with a well-balanced approach, but real native speaker presence for more humanist approach is still needed.

Abstract

: Students can comprehend the nursing process and disease cases thanks to the nursing study program's English syllabus.┬á Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine how well the Genre-Based Approach (GBA) improves university-level nursing students' speaking abilities. The study employs a quasi-experimental research design and quantitative methods.┬á The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not GBA can improve university-level speaking abilities among nursing students.┬á A complete sampling technique is used to choose the sample, which consists of 71 students in total.┬á The GBA is used to teach English in the experimental group.┬á In contrast, the control group receives English instruction using a traditional method. the information gathered from the pre-test and post-test. Both descriptive and inferential analysis are performed on the data using the SPPS 22 version application. In hypothesis testing, 0.05 is a common significance level. Since 0.530 is more than 0.05, the null hypothesisÔÇöwhich typically states that there is no difference between the groupsÔÇöcannot be disproved. It shows that H0 is accepted while Ha is denied. As a result, one could argue that there aren't any notable differences between the groups.┬á

Abstract

The representation of disability in educational materials, particularly textbooks, is an important yet often overlooked aspect of inclusive education. Although Indonesia’s Merdeka Curriculum promotes diversity, the portrayal of individuals with disabilities in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) textbook remains underexplored. This study examines the visibility and social roles of characters with disabilities, focusing on whether they are portrayed as “agents” or “victims” based on the Social Model of Disability. Using Critical Content Analysis, this study analyzed three high school English textbooks (Grades 10–12). The findings indicate that disability is indeed depicted, but inconsistently, with more frequent appearances in Grade 10. All identified characters are portrayed as active, independent, and socially integrated individuals, categorized as “agents. Disability is portrayed positively as independent and capable, but its representation is limited and inconsistent across grade levels.”

Abstract

Speaking in English remains challenging for many EFL learners because oral performance requires confidence. Small group discussion (SGD) is one activity used in EFL speaking instruction. Previous studies have examined SGD from various perspectives in EFL learning. However, the role of SGD in supporting students’ speaking confidence before oral performance in non-formal EFL settings remains underexplored, especially the aspects of confidence supported by SGD and the discussion features that contribute to students’ confidence. This study investigated EFL students’ perceptions of SGD in supporting speaking confidence before oral performance. Using a qualitative descriptive design, this study involved seventh-grade EFL learners at a non-formal English course institution in Central Java. Data were collected through classroom observation, a screening questionnaire, and semi-structured interviews. The data were analysed using thematic analysis. The findings showed that students perceived SGD as a structured preparatory activity that helped them understand the material, exchange ideas, rehearse speaking parts, and organize ideas before oral performance. SGD also supported students’ confidence through peer support, respectful responses, clear role distribution, equal speaking opportunities, and manageable group size. These findings suggest that SGD serves as a preparatory activity in EFL speaking instruction to encourage participation and help students approach oral performance with greater confidence.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of interdisciplinary learning in English language instruction on procedural texts among sixth-grade students at SD Negeri 2 Kentengsari and to explore its impact on students’ understanding and classroom engagement. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, involving sixth-grade teachers and students as the research participants. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The credibility of the findings was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The results indicate that integrating English with Fine Arts created a more contextual, meaningful, and engaging learning environment. Students not only developed a better understanding of procedural text structures but also applied their knowledge through practical classroom activities. The interdisciplinary approach also enhanced students’ participation, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, and artistic expression throughout the learning process. Furthermore, the teacher’s role as a facilitator was essential in guiding learning activities effectively. These findings suggest that interdisciplinary learning is an innovative instructional approach that supports holistic competency development and promotes meaningful learning experiences at the elementary school level.
