Abstract

This study examines the motivational orientation of Islamic boarding school students toward English language learning and challenges the common assumption that religious identity may reduce acceptance of English as a global language. The research aims to describe students’ perceptions of the importance of English, sources of motivation, perceived learning difficulty, and preferred learning materials within the pesantren context. This study employed a quantitative descriptive survey design. Data were collected through a structured online questionnaire distributed to students who actively participated in English classes. Total sampling was applied to respondents who completed the questionnaire. The instrument consisted of closed-ended questions measuring perceived importance of English, motivational sources, level of difficulty, and instructional preferences. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques in the form of frequency and percentage distribution. The findings indicate that most students consider English an important subject despite perceiving it as difficult. Internal motivation emerged as the dominant source of learning drive, followed by teacher encouragement. Students showed greater interest in communicative daily conversation materials than in religious text-based materials. These results suggest that students’ motivation is future-oriented and internally driven rather than externally imposed. In conclusion, English learning motivation among Islamic boarding school students is characterized by positive perception, strong self-driven orientation, and resilience despite perceived difficulty. The findings confirm that religious educational settings do not inherently hinder students’ engagement with English as a global language.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze English teachers’ experiences in participating in in-service training and identify their training needs related to contemporary English language learnng approaches. Teacher professional development is a crucial factor in improving the quality of learning, particulary in facing the 21st century, which emphasizes learning using communicative, collaborative approaches, and the use of technology in the teaching and learning process. This study employed  a quantitative approach with a survey method and involved English teachers as research respondents. Research data were collected using a questionnaire designed to obtain information related to teacher training experiences, training providers, training needs, and teachers’ level of knowledge regarding various contemporary English language learning approaches. The obtained data were tan analyzed descriptively to describe the training conditions and teachers’ profesional development needs. The results of this study indicate that English teachers’ participation in training is still relatively limited, even though the training is organized by various institutions, In addition, teachers alo demonstrated a high need for training on contemporary learning approaches, paticularly those related to the use of technology in English language learnig. The findings of this study indicate that teachers have a fairly good level of knowledge of several approaches, such as Project-Based learning, Student-Centered Approach, Task-Based Language teachng, although their understanding of technology-based approaches is still relatively low. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of providing more systematic, sustainable, and relevant teacher training programs that are aligned with learning needs.

Abstract

In contemporary higher education, academic writing increasingly involves the integration of visual and verbal resources, positioning multimodal literacy as a crucial competence for EFL pre-service teachers (Jewitt, 2016; O’Halloran, 2008). Despite growing interest in multimodality, research on EFL academic writing has largely focused on linguistic features, often overlooking intersemiotic relations between images and written language (Royce, 2002; Royce & Bowcher, 2013). Addressing this gap, this study investigates how intersemiotic meaning is constructed in multimodal analytical exposition texts produced by EFL pre-service teachers. Employing a qualitative design with Multimodal Discourse Analysis grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics (Halliday & Matthiessen, 2013) and intersemiotic complementarity, the study analyzes semantic relations across visual and verbal modes. The findings reveal that declarative mood, balanced modalization, and dominant material processes establish an authoritative and persuasive stance, while visual elements re-realize and extend ideational meanings through representational structures. The study concludes that effective multimodal academic writing depends on strong intersemiotic alignment and highlights the importance of explicitly developing visual–verbal meaning-making competence in EFL teacher education.

Abstract

Program pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memperkuat kompetensi pengasuhan positif pada orang tua anak usia dini di Desa Sukaratu, Kabupaten Garut, melalui pendekatan terpadu berbasis analisis appraisal linguistik dan psikologi. Intervensi mengombinasikan analisis appraisal dalam kerangka Linguistik Sistemik Fungsional (LSF) dengan strategi edukasi psikologis seperti manajemen stres, emotion labeling, serta praktik komunikasi konstruktif. Data dikumpulkan melalui asesmen pra–pasca, jurnal bahasa, observasi, dan diskusi kelompok dalam Kelompok Dukungan Sebaya (KKSB). Hasil menunjukkan penurunan signifikan pada skor stres subjektif orang tua (23%) dan peningkatan kemampuan dalam mengelola tekanan emosional melalui teknik breathing exercise, mindfulness grounding, dan model positive reappraisalLazarus–Folkman. Perubahan linguistik juga tampak nyata: afek negatif menurun 34%, penilaian konstruktif meningkat 41%, dan penggunaan graduasi ekstrem bernada negatif berkurang 29%. Orang tua menjadi lebih percaya diri dalam mengelola dinamika rumah tangga dan menunjukkan penurunan frekuensi ledakan emosi, didukung oleh meningkatnya praktik refleksi diri melalui jurnal harian. Meskipun anak tidak terlibat langsung, orang tua melaporkan peningkatan responsivitas anak terhadap arahan, berkurangnya konflik harian, dan meningkatnya kenyamanan komunikasi. Pada tingkat komunitas, KKSB berhasil menyusun “Modul Bahasa Pengasuhan Positif” serta melahirkan sejumlah ibu sebagai role model, sehingga mendorong rencana replikasi program ke dusun lainnya di Sukaratu. Secara keseluruhan, program ini menunjukkan efektivitas integrasi teori appraisal dan keterampilan psikologis dalam membangun ketahanan keluarga di komunitas pedesaan.

Abstract

English pronunciation is essential for effective oral communication, yet it remains a persistent challenge for Indonesian junior high school students, particularly in terms of accuracy and speaking confidence. Recent advances in artificial intelligence, especially Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training (CAPT), have introduced new opportunities for providing immediate and personalized pronunciation feedback. This descriptive qualitative study explored ninth-grade students’ perceptions of pronunciation feedback provided by the ELSA Speak application and examined the reasons underlying these perceptions. The study was conducted at SMPN 6 Garut and involved 34 ninth-grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through weekly reflective journals, classroom observations during pronunciation practice, and documentation of pronunciation scores generated by the application. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns in students’ experiences. The findings reveal a clear polarization in students’ perceptions. Some students benefited from ELSA Speak due to its safe practice environment, visual feedback, and support for autonomous learning, while others experienced technical frustration, limited articulatory explanations, and digital fatigue caused by repetitive practice and reduced human interaction. The study concludes that ELSA Speak is not a one-size-fits-all solution and is most effective when used as a supplementary tool supported by teacher guidance. Further research is recommended to examine the role of teacher mediation and long-term use of AI-based pronunciation tools in diverse learning contexts. ABSTRAK Pelafalan bahasa Inggris merupakan aspek penting dalam komunikasi lisan, namun masih menjadi tantangan bagi siswa sekolah menengah pertama di Indonesia, terutama terkait ketepatan fonologis dan kepercayaan diri berbicara. Perkembangan teknologi kecerdasan buatan, khususnya Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training (CAPT), menawarkan peluang baru melalui penyediaan umpan balik pelafalan yang bersifat langsung dan personal. Penelitian kualitatif deskriptif ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi persepsi siswa kelas IX terhadap umpan balik pelafalan yang diberikan oleh aplikasi ELSA Speak serta mengidentifikasi alasan di balik persepsi tersebut. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di SMPN 6 Garut dengan melibatkan 34 siswa kelas IX yang dipilih melalui teknik purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan melalui jurnal reflektif mingguan, observasi kelas selama latihan pelafalan, serta dokumentasi skor pelafalan dari aplikasi. Data dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis tematik untuk mengidentifikasi pola pengalaman siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya polarisasi persepsi siswa. Sebagian siswa merasakan manfaat dari ELSA Speak karena lingkungan latihan yang aman, umpan balik visual yang jelas, dan dukungan terhadap pembelajaran mandiri. Sebaliknya, siswa lain mengalami frustrasi teknis, keterbatasan penjelasan artikulatoris, serta kelelahan digital akibat latihan yang repetitif dan minim interaksi manusia. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa ELSA Speak bukan solusi tunggal pembelajaran pelafalan dan lebih efektif digunakan sebagai alat pendukung dengan bimbingan guru. Penelitian selanjutnya disarankan untuk mengkaji peran mediasi guru dan penggunaan jangka panjang teknologi CAPT dalam konteks pembelajaran yang beragam.

Abstract

This descriptive qualitative study aims to evaluate the alignment of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) materials in the textbook English for Professional Hotel Staff with hospitality students' vocational demands and explore students' subjective perceptions of the materials. Data were gathered through document analysis of Units 1–7 employing a materials evaluation checklist and a focus group discussion with 10 hospitality students at a vocational high school. The document analysis revealed that the textbook consistently presents industry-relevant vocabulary and workplace communicative functions, yet it exhibits an imbalance in language skills where listening and writing are underrepresented alongside irregular authentic materials. The focus group discussion showed that 8 out of 10 students perceived the content as partially relevant to entry-level tasks, 7 students deemed it fundamentally useful but insufficient for workplace readiness, and their classroom engagement was conditional with a strong preference for hands-on role-play activities. These convergent findings indicate that while the textbook offers a solid instructional basis, supplementary authentic tasks and pedagogical adaptations are necessary to foster comprehensive occupational competence. ABSTRAK Penelitian kualitatif deskriptif ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kesesuaian materi English for Specific Purposes (ESP) dalam buku teks English for Professional Hotel Staff terhadap kebutuhan vokasi siswa perhotelan sekaligus menganalisis persepsi siswa terhadap materi tersebut. Data dihimpun melalui analisis dokumen terhadap Unit 1–7 dengan panduan kerangka evaluasi bahan ajar serta diskusi kelompok terpumpun (focus group discussion) bersama 10 siswa perhotelan di sekolah menengah kejuruan. Hasil analisis dokumen menunjukkan bahwa materi menyajikan kosakata perhotelan dan fungsi bahasa yang sesuai dengan tugas kerja secara konsisten, namun cakupan empat keterampilan bahasa belum seimbang karena keterampilan menyimak dan menulis kurang terwakili serta materi autentik masih minim. Hasil diskusi kelompok terpumpun mengungkap bahwa 8 dari 10 siswa menilai materi relevan secara parsial pada tingkat dasar, 7 siswa memandang materi berguna namun belum memadai untuk kesiapan kerja industri, dan keterlibatan belajar siswa bersifat kondisional dengan preferensi tertinggi pada aktivitas simulasi kerja (role-play). Kedua temuan mengonfirmasi bahwa buku teks ini berfungsi sebagai fondasi awal yang baik namun memerlukan materi suplemen autentik dan variasi tugas untuk mengoptimalkan kompetensi komunikasi kerja siswa.
