Abstract

Pre-service teachers' ability to construct and conduct assessment has been a point of emphasis for decades, and rightfully so. It is crucial that they acquire the necessary knowledge and abilities in their language assessment course during their pre-service teacher education to effectively assess students in their future professional routines. The purpose of this research was to determine if and how pre-service English teachers' (PSETs) satisfaction with their language assessment course corresponded with their level of readiness. 51 out of 56 PSETs participated since they met the two requirements (passing the language assessment course and enrolling in TAP). The Fulcher (2012) language assessment literacy questionnaire was adapted and disseminated. The questions were organized into four categories for the purpose of analysis: overarching principles and concepts in linguistic assessment; designing language assessment; scoring test items and analyzing test results. Results demonstrated that LAL satisfaction was not congruent with assessment readiness. There was a "neutral" level of satisfaction among participants (51.5 percent), but they were nearly set to begin practicing assessment at their TAP (78.5 percent). Additionally included are statistics that are specific to each of the four categories found in the questionnaire.  In particular, the study suggests that training in evaluating open-response questions and analyzing test items warrants expansion. Additional research could fill in the gap between LAL satisfaction and the PSETs by examining the relationship between the two.

Abstract

The increasing significance of English as a global lingua franca underscores the need for effective early language education strategies. This study examines English teachers' strategies in implementing the Montessori method at Bale Anak Lombok Montessori School to enhance pre-schoolers' vocabulary acquisition and address pedagogical challenges. Employing a qualitative descriptive case study design, data were collected through non-participatory classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with two teachers, and document analysis. Findings reveal that the Three-Period Lesson—a core Montessori strategy—was pivotal in introducing vocabulary through structured progression, using tangible materials and interactive activities to foster engagement and retention. Supplementary strategies included storytelling, songs with movements, and gamified activities, which addressed young learners' developmental needs and short attention spans. Articulation challenges were mitigated through repetition and individualized observation, while parent involvement reinforced learning consistency at home. The study highlights the Montessori method's alignment with constructivist principles, emphasizing hands-on, child-centered learning that supports holistic development. These findings suggest that integrating interactive, multisensory approaches can significantly enhance early language education. Implications include the need for professional training to adapt Montessori principles effectively and for future research to explore their application in diverse educational and cultural contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the challenges faced by English teachers in primary schools in Central Lombok and identifies strategies to address these issues. Key barriers include limited teaching resources, socio-economic disparities, and large class sizes, all of which hinder effective English instruction. Teachers face diverse student proficiency levels, cultural influences prioritizing traditional rote-learning methods, and professional isolation that limits collaborative opportunities. The study employs qualitative methods, combining semi-structured interviews with 10 English teachers and structured classroom observations. Interviews explored topics such as resource limitations, training disparities, and student engagement strategies, while classroom observations provided empirical insights into teacher-student interactions, instructional methods, and resource availability. Data were analyzed thematically to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the contextual challenges. Findings highlight the need for professional development programs focused on culturally responsive pedagogies and strategies for addressing linguistic diversity. Collaborative networks and community involvement are recommended to bridge the gap between global English standards and local cultural contexts. By integrating these approaches, this research advocates for targeted interventions to enhance English teaching and learning outcomes in Central Lombok's primary schools.

Abstract

Pendidikan lingkungan hidup memiliki peran penting dalam membentuk karakter siswa yang peduli terhadap alam. Artikel ini membahas implementasi kegiatan pendampingan pemberian nama ilmiah pada tumbuhan di lingkungan SMPN 17 Mataram sebagai media pembelajaran berbasis lingkungan. Kegiatan ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya pemanfaatan tumbuhan sekolah sebagai sumber belajar, khususnya dalam pembelajaran Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (IPA). Metode yang digunakan meliputi analisis masalah, observasi, pendataan tanaman, identifikasi nama ilmiah melalui referensi ilmiah, pelabelan tanaman, serta refleksi siswa. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa lebih dari 20 jenis pohon berhasil diidentifikasi dan dilabeli, seperti Mangifera indica dan Swietenia macrophylla. Proses ini meningkatkan literasi sains, keterampilan berpikir kritis, dan kesadaran ekologis siswa. Pemasangan label tanaman tidak hanya memperkaya sumber belajar kontekstual, tetapi juga mendukung pendekatan pembelajaran berbasis proyek dalam Kurikulum Merdeka. Kegiatan ini dinilai efektif dan berkelanjutan dalam membentuk karakter siswa yang cinta lingkungan, serta berpotensi menjadi program unggulan sekolah berbasis konservasi dan pendidikan ekologis.

Abstract

Basic Mandarin Training for Tourism for Lombok Tourism Polytechnic students was held on Tuesday, May 6, 2025. This community service program, organized by University of Mataram's Language Academic Support Unit, aimed to introduce Mandarin to students. Participants were students who would be undertaking internships in the hotel industry in Taiwan. The training consisted of two stages: program socialization and the training sessions themselves. The material provided covered Mandarin phonetic basics, Hanzi character writing, and simulation-based conversation practice. Participants learned through role-playing activities in tourism scenarios, such as hotel room bookings and restaurant services. Despite the program's limited duration, participants showed high enthusiasm and actively participated. They were also introduced to using the Pleco application as a tool to support independent learning. Evaluation results indicated that this program was quite effective in providing a basic understanding of Mandarin for Lombok Tourism Polytechnic students, though independent practice in pronunciation is highly needed. Therefore, after the training, participants were advised to integrate applications and AI to support their self-study efforts. With improved Mandarin skills, students are expected to compete in the global tourism industry and provide higher-quality services to Chinese tourists.

Abstract

Background: EFL teaching in Indonesian urban and rural schools have been experiencing persistent challenges due to linguistic, cultural, geographical and resources differences. However, these conditions have not been portraited from ecological persepctive of agency. Therefore, this study examines EFL teacher agency and instructional problem-solving in urban and rural Indonesian classrooms Methodology: This mixed-method study involves 129 EFL instructors (85 from rural schools, 44 from urban schools) who completed a survey, and 35 submitted reflective journals. Quantitative data were assessed using descriptive statistics, and qualitative data were evaluated through thematic analysis. Findings: Both urban and rural EFL teachers faced similar classroom issues like low motivation, vocabulary gaps, and speaking anxiety, though rural teachers linked them to limited resources and urban teachers to distractions and pressure. Urban teachers showed stronger and more consistent agency, especially in autonomy, professional growth, and future goals, while rural teachers drew on deep personal motivation but were often hindered by local challenges. Conclusion: The study shows that teachers’ ecological past experiences, present conditions, and future goals shaped how they solved problems. Rural teachers relied on local resources and flexible strategies, while urban teachers used creative, student-centered methods to build autonomy and global skills, pointing to the need for context-specific support and policies that empower teacher-led innovation. Originality: This study offers how teacher agency is lived out in the everyday problem-solving of EFL classrooms, not just in teachers’ beliefs or intentions. By comparing rural and urban contexts in Indonesia, it reveals how agency looks different across settings and highlights the creativity and resilience of teachers, especially in resource-challenged schools.

Abstract

Writing is one of the most essential and challenging skills in English language learning because it demands creativity, organization, and linguistic accuracy. Among various text types, descriptive text plays a crucial role in helping students express ideas clearly and vividly by describing people, places, or objects in detail. However, many students still face difficulties in generating ideas, organizing sentences, and using appropriate vocabulary. This study aimed to analyze gender based teaching strategies employed by male and female English teachers in teaching descriptive text and how these strategies are implemented in the classroom. The study employed a qualitative descriptive method. The participants were five English teachers at MTsN 1 Lombok Tengah, consisting of three males and two females. The data were collected through classroom observation and interviews and analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results revealed that each teacher applied distinct strategies. Male teachers used guided writing, imaginary strategy, and visual learning to stimulate creativity and provide structural support, while female teachers used modified vocabulary instruction and collaborative learning to strengthen linguistic readiness and promote peer interaction. Drawing on the findings, it can be concluded that although male and female English teachers demonstrated different emphases in their teaching, both aimed to facilitate students’ descriptive writing development, boost confidence, and encourage active participation through supportive and interactive learning environments.
