Abstract

Writing is considered the most challenging skill for language learners because they need a certain amount of L2 background knowledge about the rhetorical organization, the proper use of language, or the specific lexicon they want to convey to their readers. It is not uncommon for students who are English majors to find it challenging to hone this writing skill. This study aims to see the extent of students' writing skills in the English department and to provide some ways to improve their writing skills. The method used in this study is a qualitative research method with observations of students majoring in English. The results of the research found that students majoring in English who were tested showed that students’ writing skills are still inferior and have many mistakes. This research is intended for readers to see a good writing strategy to improve the writing skills of English majors. It can be enhanced with techniques for better writing skills, such as brainstorming before starting and asking WH questions.

Abstract

This study examines the trends, gaps, and future directions of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in tourism higher education.ESP in tourism is essential for preparing students to communicate professionally in global service contexts, yet many curricula still focus mainly on linguistic knowledge rather than authentic workplace communication. This study employed a qualitative descriptive design through a literature review of scholarly sources related to ESP, tourism education, hospitality communication, curriculum development, and professional communication. The findings show that tourism ESP instruction has shifted toward communicative, task-based, and scenario-based learning. However, gaps remain in students’ psychological readiness, willingness to communicate, intercultural competence, and ability to respond spontaneously in real service encounters. The study highlights the need for a holistic ESP curriculum that integrates linguistic competence, emotional preparedness, intercultural awareness, digital communication skills, and authentic workplace practices. Such integration can better prepare tourism students to become confident, adaptive, and professional service practitioners in international contexts.

Abstract

This study is based on the importance of mastering pronunciation to support students’ reading skills in EFL contexts, as well as the role of translanguaging strategies in helping students’ understanding. The aim of this study is to analyze the implementation of translanguaging strategies used by a teacher in teaching pronunciation at SMA Negeri 1 Percut Sei Tuan. This study uses a descriptive qualitative design, with one English teacher as the subject, and the data were collected through interviews. The data were analyzed using an interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that the teacher applied two main translanguaging strategies, namely translation and L1 scaffolding. Translation was found to be the most dominant strategy, while L1 scaffolding was used to support students in understanding concepts, materials, and the pronunciation of English words. These strategies help students understand the material better, reduce ambiguity in meaning, and improve the effectiveness of pronunciation learning during reading activities. The findings imply that the strategic use of translanguaging can be an effective approach in teaching pronunciation for EFL students.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the experiences of English Education students in designing English language learning based on the Merdeka Curriculum and to identify the challenges they encountered during the design process. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. The participants were 40 English Education students at Universitas Negeri Medan, consisting of 30 students from the 2023 cohort and 10 students from the 2022 cohort, who had completed the Micro Teaching course. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed thematically using the stages of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that students had experience applying several principles of the Merdeka Curriculum, including project-based learning, selection of essential learning materials, learning flexibility, differentiated learning, and integration of learning components. Students designed various project activities, such as brochures, booklets, videos, podcasts, comic strips, and greeting cards, to provide opportunities for learners to use English actively and creatively. However, students also experienced challenges in determining appropriate differentiation, identifying learners’ characteristics and needs, designing assessments, managing instructional time, and adapting lesson plans to practical and classroom conditions. To address these challenges, students used references, discussions, teaching practice, feedback, reflection, and revision. The study concludes that students have developed an initial understanding of Merdeka Curriculum-based learning design, but continued practical experience and reflective activities are needed to strengthen their pedagogical competence.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) factors related to the intention of English Education students to adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support English language learning, as well as to identify the most dominant factor. The study employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design. Data were collected via an online questionnaire distributed to 160 students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Medan (classes of 2023 and 2024) who had experience using AI in English learning. The research instrument measured Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Facilitating Conditions, and Behavioral Intention using a five-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics by comparing the mean scores of each construct. The results indicate that students hold a positive attitude toward the use of AI in English learning. Performance Expectancy achieved the highest mean score (4.22), followed by Facilitating Conditions (4.01), Effort Expectancy (3.92), and Social Influence (3.38), while Behavioral Intention had a mean score of 4.00. These findings suggest that the benefits perceived by students are the most dominant factor driving the intention to adopt AI. Therefore, the implementation of AI in learning should be directed toward uses that provide tangible benefits for students' academic needs.
