Abstract

For many university-level EFL students, speaking in a second language can be quite a challenge. It often involves grappling with the complexities of the L2 language. To help tackle these hurdles and boost students' speaking confidence, Oral Communication Strategies can be quite beneficial. In this research, we used a mixed-method approach, which included surveys via questionnaires and in-depth interviews. We received responses from 110 completed questionnaires and gained further data by interviewing 10 students. The findings revealed that students tend to rely on Oral Communication Strategies when they face difficulties in communicating in a second language. They often resort to such strategies, such as using gestures, facial expressions, miming, or sound imitation, especially when they struggle to explain a vocabulary item. These results are anticipated to be a valuable resource for educators and practitioners, assisting them in tailoring the curriculum and providing a more enriching learning experience for students learning a second language. The study's findings can help language learners and educators in higher education by using oral communication strategies to create effective learning environments for improved communication.

Abstract

Research on the Storytelling perspectives of the storyteller is not quite new, however, further discussion is done by seeking the educational implications of Storytelling used. Therefore, this study investigates the cases of three active storytellers under the learning community in students' activity at University. The findings suggest that the teacher candidates subjectively position themselves during the learning process of becoming a good storyteller in the Storytelling Community in three ways; (a) they positioned themselves as a storyteller through self-management and self-discipline in advancing their knowledge to be a good Storytelling Performer, (b) they engaged in professional interaction with the audience and other storytellers in community, (c) as the other storytellers inside the community capitalized on their simultaneous storytelling experience as a valuable resource in the storytelling-learning community

Abstract

Research on the debatable topic of learning autonomy from the perspectives of the debaters is not quite new, however, further discussion is done by seeking the educational implications of autonomous learning used. Therefore, this study investigates the cases of three active debaters under the learning community in students' activity at University. The findings have focused more on how they subjectively position themselves during the learning process of becoming a good debater in the debating Community. First, they agree that the existence of mentors has created a significant difference in the growth and betterment of debater in the learning community. Second, assessment has a huge role to become the extrinsic exposure, the evaluative measurement, as well as raising up learning motivation. Third, during the learning process of becoming a good debater, autonomy can be seen as either individualistic or not depends on each individual to positioned the urge of learning.
