Abstract

This study investigates the effect of teacher feedback on speaking anxiety among secondary school ESL students. Speaking anxiety is one of the major challenges faced by students when required to speak English in class, often hindering their oral communication development. The study involved 120 participants, consisting of 100 students and 20 English teachers. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected using three main instruments: semi-structured interview guidelines, a structured classroom observation checklist, and students’ reflective journal prompts. The interview protocol explored participants’ perceptions of feedback and its influence on their confidence and anxiety. The observation checklist documented the type, timing, tone, and delivery mode of teacher feedback, as well as students’ immediate behavioral reactions. Reflective journals captured students’ personal emotional responses to feedback during speaking activities. The findings reveal that supportive, empathetic, and constructive feedback significantly reduced students’ speaking anxiety, increased self-confidence, and encouraged active participation in oral tasks. A positive classroom atmosphere characterized by respectful teacher–student interaction further enabled learners to engage in speaking without fear of negative judgment. In contrast, harsh or overly critical feedback, particularly when delivered publicly, tended to trigger embarrassment and heightened anxiety. The study also highlights the importance of balancing corrective and supportive feedback while remaining sensitive to individual and gender differences, as students’ perceptions of feedback mediated its emotional impact and willingness to communicate. Teacher feedback functions not only as a pedagogical tool for improving linguistic accuracy but also as an affective support mechanism that shapes students’ emotional readiness to speak in a second language. Emotionally responsive feedback practices are therefore essential in ESL classrooms.

Abstract

Song lyrics often convey meanings that extend beyond their literal interpretations, making semantic analysis essential for understanding the messages embedded in musical texts. However, studies specifically examining denotative and connotative meanings in English popular songs remain relatively limited. Therefore, this study aims to identify the denotative and connotative meanings found in Alicia Keys' *If I Ain't Got You* and explain how these meanings contribute to the song's overall message. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using document analysis as the primary method. The data consisted of lyrical expressions selected from the song and analyzed based on semantic theory. The findings revealed 20 lyrical expressions, including 7 denotative meanings and 13 connotative meanings. The predominance of connotative meanings indicates that figurative and implied language plays a significant role in communicating the song's central message. The analysis shows that the lyrics emphasize the importance of genuine love, emotional connection, and personal fulfillment over material wealth, social status, fame, and power. These findings highlight the value of semantic analysis in revealing deeper meanings and enhancing the interpretation of song lyrics.

Abstract

This community service program aims to develop a mother-empowerment model to support children’s learning autonomy in Sawohan Village, Buduran District, Sidoarjo Regency. The program was motivated by the low level of parental involvement and limited understanding of effective home-learning strategies among mothers. A Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach was employed, involving mothers and community stakeholders in all stages of the program, including problem identification, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The activities consisted of community education, practical training, consultation and mentoring, and advocacy to ensure program sustainability.Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using thematic qualitative analysis. The results indicate increased awareness among mothers regarding their roles in supporting children’s learning, improved practical skills in facilitating home-learning activities, and strengthened collaboration within the community. The program also produced simple handbooks and practical guidelines, as well as encouraged the formation of a community learning group (Kelompok Belajar Ibu dan Anak) as a local support network. Overall, the program resulted in a sustainable and replicable empowerment model that can be adapted in other communities with similar social and economic characteristics
