Abstract

Psycholinguistic factors are part of internal factors which connect to the intellectual process. Social factors are part of external factors which connect to social interactions. This study aims to reveal the psychological and social factors in second language acquisition of elementary and secondary students in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative methodology focused on library research. The data used documentation techniques to gather and analyse the data through the descriptive approach. Documentation data reveal that there are five psycholinguistic factors such as (1) attitude, (2) aptitude, (3) motivation, (4) personality qualities, and (5) biological processes. Also, this research found eight social factors such as (1) gender, (2) age, (3) social class, (4) motivation, (5) attitude, (6) cultural process, (7) students' characters and situation, and (8) economic status. No particular factor can be stated as dominant among psycholinguistic and social factors. Therefore, this research reveals the same element that occurred in psycholinguistic and social factors: motivation and attitude. This study suggests that teachers should pay extra attention to students' motivation and attitude since it relates to psychological and social factors, which could support their second language acquisition.

Abstract

The declining enthusiasm for reading among university students poses diverse challenges in educational research. This study aims to investigate the barriers faced by literature education students when reading English short stories from https://read.gov/aesop/ and their strategies to overcome these challenges. Using a qualitative approach with a descriptive design, this study presents insights gathered from 43 students at one state university in Indonesia. Furthermore, a questionnaire was administered to explore the challenges faced during the learning process and measure whether those barriers impacted their reading interest. The findings indicate several barriers, such as deciphering figurative language, understanding unfamiliar vocabulary, and grappling with complex grammatical structures. In addition, students' motivation to overcome challenges in understanding English short stories was affected by their inadequate knowledge of English vocabulary, which hindered their ability to construct coherent meanings. The findings also show some solutions to overcome the difficulties in reading English short stories, such as asking friends or lecturers for word meanings and using translation tools to find out the meaning of unknown words. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the difficulties arising from reading English short stories can be resolved with various solutions that have been found.

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the cultural representation of the EFL Textbook mandated by the Indonesian government in the Merdeka Curriculum for 10th-grade students. The frameworks used for the analysis are Moran's (2001) theory of five dimensions of culture (products, practices, perspectives, communities, and persons) and Chao's (2011) theory of cultural categories (target culture, source culture, international culture, intercultural communication, and universality across culture). Qualitative content analysis is used as the research method. The study's primary data is an English textbook titled Bahasa Inggris: Work in Progress, published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture (2022) as delivered in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum. The results show that the represented cultural dimensions in the textbook are products (34%), practices (31%), persons (15%), perspectives (13%), and communities (7%). Whereas, for the cultural categories, the result shows that the textbook represents the international culture (32%), source culture (29%), universality across cultures (20%), target culture (16%), and intercultural interaction (3%). Therefore, all cultural dimensions and cultural categories are represented in the textbook with different frequencies. However, the textbook needs improvement regarding the consistency of the cultural dimensions and categories.

Abstract

The pivotal role of feedback in improving students’ writing competence has been undeniable, yet there has not been any agreement about how feedback can improve learning. The advancement of technology has opened opportunities to give feedback facilitated by technology, commonly referred to as Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE). AWE-based applications help produce effective feedback mostly because they are friendly. Several studies have documented that several AWE-based applications can potentially improve students’ writing skills. Nevertheless, effective feedback constitutes more than timely feedback. AWE-based applications cannot attain other factors, such as ongoing and goal-oriented. In other words, an AWE-based application is merely a form of feedback, such as comments and scores. Therefore, improving students’ writing competence cannot rely solely on AWE-based applications. The AWE-based application should be framed in the process of feedback provision that aims to improve learning, known as formative feedback. This paper elaborates on how AWE can be framed in formative feedback. The concept of formative feedback and the writing process will be discussed thoroughly before discussing how AWE tools can be embedded in formative feedback during the writing process.

Abstract

Religious diversity in Indonesia demands its citizens to be moderate as they encounter religious affairs in society. Educators have made substantial efforts in many contexts, including in Madrasah Aliyah, to enable students to embrace the values of religious moderation not only in academic settings but also on a daily basis. This study aims to identify how a Madrasah Aliyah promotes religious moderation values, including students’ responses towards the notion. This study used a qualitative approach and case study design. The research instruments used questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. This study was situated in the scope where the school implements Islamic concepts in learning, which involved a teacher and 32 students. The data for this study is gathered from questionnaires and interviews. The study found that the values of religious moderation are promoted through learning activities supported by the school’s system. Being fair, tolerant, respecting differences, helping others, being honest, humble, cooperative, peaceful, responsible, and being a role model are religious moderation values promoted by the school. These values are embedded in all stages of learning. Also, this study discovered that teachers and students have implemented religious moderation values during teaching and learning. This study has shed light on how religious moderation values can be implemented in Madrasah Aliyah, and students can integrate those values into academic and actual life conditions.
