Abstract

This study addresses the effectiveness of contextualized crossword puzzles as a gamified learning tool for developing slang and critical thinking skills among EFL college students. Motivated by gaps in traditional English language teaching, which often exclude informal language and higher-order thinking, this study implemented slang-focused vocabulary learning with critical thinking through a contextualized crossword puzzle format. A mixed-methods explanatory approach was used, combining quantitative data from 50 students via a Likert scale survey and qualitative insights from interviews with 3 participants with varying levels of achievement. Quantitative findings showed high levels of students' agreement with the usefulness of the activity in developing slang comprehension, engagement, and analytical reasoning. The qualitative results further revealed that the students found the puzzles intellectually challenging, engaging, and useful for problem solving and logical reasoning. Five main themes emerged: engagement and fun, vocabulary acquisition, critical thinking development, overcoming challenges, and problem solving. These findings are in line with constructivist learning theory and Bloom’s Taxonomy, which stated that crosswords provide meaningful cognitive engagement while encouraging real-world language use. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating gamification strategies into the EFL classroom and suggests contextualized crosswords as a practical, motivating, and educational medium to unify formal learning with informal, everyday communication.

Abstract

This study investigates the consequences experienced by late learners and explores how these learners perceive the challenges and benefits throughout their language acquisition journey. Utilizing a sequential explanatory mixed-method approach, quantitative data were gathered from 50 participants via a structured questionnaire and followed by qualitative interviews with four individuals representing early and late English learners. The quantitative findings revealed that late learners frequently face difficulties in grammar, pronunciation, and fluency accompanied by lower self-confidence and declining motivation. These challenges are aligned with the Critical Period Hypothesis (CPH) and Krashen’s Affective Filter Hypothesis, which attribute age and emotional factors as key barriers in second language acquisition. However, qualitative data suggest that strong instrumental motivation, self-directed learning strategies, and the use of digital tools help late learners overcome these limitations. Despite cognitive constraints, age was not the sole determinant of success. Learning outcomes were influenced by learner ability, technological engagement, and environmental support. The study concludes that pedagogical strategies should address both the technical and emotional needs of late learners and suggest policy reform that includes flexible start times, digital resources, and age-appropriate support systems.

Abstract

Pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memperkenalkan strategi mengintegrasikan literasi teknologi ke dalam substansi materi pembelajaran melalui sastra anak, di saat materi yang diajarkan oleh guru-guru sekolah dasar masih didominasi oleh cerita-cerita konvensional yang berfokus pada penyampaian nilai moral sehingga kurang merepresentasikan dinamika kehidupan anak di era digital. Dari kegiatan ini diharapkan adanya peningkatan pemahaman dan kompetensi guru dalam mentransformasi sastra anak berbasis literasi teknologi sebagai inovasi materi pembelajaran bahasa Inggris. Kegiatan dilaksanakan pada tanggal 15 Mei 2026 di Gedung Soelaiman Joesoef Lantai 2 Universitas PGRI Adi Buana Surabaya dengan melibatkan 75 guru sekolah dasar yang tergabung dalam Kelompok Kerja Guru (KKG) Waru, Sidoarjo. Metode yang digunakan partisipatif yang terdiri dari penyampaian materi, diskusi interaktif, refleksi, dan evaluasi menggunakan angket skala Likert lima poin. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa pelatihan memperoleh respons yang sangat positif dengan nilai rata-rata evaluasi sebesar 4,54 dari skala 5,00. Sebanyak 98,7% peserta menyatakan bahwa pelatihan memberikan wawasan baru mengenai integrasi teknologi dalam pembelajaran sastra, 96,0% menyatakan memahami konsep literasi teknologi setelah mengikuti pelatihan, dan 89,4% menyatakan kesiapan untuk mengimplementasikan transformasi narasi sastra berbasis literasi teknologi dalam pembelajaran di kelas. Temuan ini menunjukkan kebaruan kegiatan yang terletak pada transformasi substansi sastra anak melalui pengembangan tokoh, konflik, dan alur cerita yang merepresentasikan pengalaman serta isu-isu teknologi yang dekat dengan kehidupan peserta didik. Implikasinya adalah tersedianya alternatif pengembangan materi pembelajaran bahasa Inggris yang lebih kontekstual, kreatif, dan relevan dengan penguatan literasi teknologi serta tuntutan kompetensi abad ke-21 di sekolah dasar
