Abstract

In the era of Industry 4.0, marked by rapid technological advancements, the use of technology in academic disciplines is crucial. A significant aspect of this tech revolution is the rise of web-based preprint services and index databases, offering a direct avenue for researchers to share work without traditional peer review. This study investigates the adoption of preprint-based publication systems in Indonesian research, focusing on SSRN First Look and Google Scholar (GS) from novices researchers’ perspective in 3 based themes e.g., Benefit, Awareness, and Expectation. SSRN First Look has been vital in promoting open science, serving as a repository for diverse scientific documents. It excels in quickly and transparently disseminating research, especially beneficial for novice researchers. The research reveals the impact of SSRN First Look in facilitating the rapid sharing of research globally, including Indonesia. As an emerging force in open science, it has attracted substantial attention, underlining the growing role of preprint servers in modern academia. This survey intentionally invited 77 novice researchers who participated in a publication workshop affiliated with SSRN First Look and GS. The findings emphasize the positive impact of these platforms on the academic community, particularly novice researchers. As we advance further into the digital era, the role of preprint servers in accelerating research dissemination and promoting open scientific communication is indispensable.

Abstract

This study examines the progress of Indonesian students in spoken English through a task-based approach in an EFL classroom. The aim of the study is to identify communication strategies and linguistic aspects used by the students during oral interaction and production. The data collected from 50 Indonesian students attending a Phonetics and Phonology course at Universitas Bandar Lampung was analyzed using triangulation with class diary and self-assessment questionnaires. The findings show significant improvements in oral interaction and production, including negotiation, cooperation, mediation, intonation, fluency, pronunciation, and rhythm. However, the students made less effort to intervene in the spoken code of the interlocutor and their own interlanguage. The study recommends training tasks that emphasize paraphrasing and self-improvement of oral discourse to enhance their overall oral proficiency in English. The findings of this study have important implications and provides a promising framework for improving students' communication strategies and linguistic aspects. Therefore, these findings suggest that effective language teaching should prioritize not only linguistic aspects but also communication strategies that enable effective oral interaction. This study's recommendations could be useful for language educators worldwide seeking to enhance their students' overall oral proficiency in English.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of gamification in English language learning in Asian countries, aiming to identify best practices and challenges in its integration. Although gamification has been widely acknowledged for enhancing student engagement and motivation, its impact on improving actual language proficiency remains uncertain, especially in the diverse educational contexts of Asia. Through a systematic review of literature published from 2019 to 2024, this research addresses gaps in existing studies, particularly those focusing on gamification within Asian educational systems. The review adheres to PRISMA guidelines, and data were gathered using the Publish or Perish tool, which identified 1,053 studies based on keywords such as "gamification," "impact," "English learning," and "Asia." Inclusion and exclusion criteria were rigorously applied to ensure the relevance of selected studies. The findings indicate that while gamification has the potential to increase motivation and engagement, several contextual factors—such as technological access, teacher preparedness, and cultural perceptions of game-based learning—are critical to its success. This study provides evidence-based recommendations for overcoming these challenges and offers practical strategies for educators and policymakers to design more effective gamified learning interventions that can enhance English language acquisition in Asia.
