Abstract

This study explores students’ experiences in using adaptive learning materials to enhance their spoken English proficiency and self-confidence. This research employed a qualitative case study design involving twenty-seven students from the English Department of the University of PGRI Silampari, Indonesia. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and reflective learning journals during a speaking course in which adaptive learning materials were implemented. The collected data were analysed using thematic analysis to identify emerging patterns in students’ experiences. The findings reveal three major themes. First, adaptive learning materials increased students’ engagement in speaking activities by providing contextualized and interactive tasks. Second, the materials facilitated gradual improvement in students’ speaking abilities through structured practice and collaborative interaction. Third, students reported significant improvement in their self-confidence as the adaptive tasks reduced anxiety and encouraged active participation. The study highlights the pedagogical potential of adaptive learning materials in supporting both linguistic competence and affective development in EFL speaking classrooms. The findings contribute to the growing body of research on learner-centered instructional design and provide practical implications for lecturers seeking to improve speaking instruction in higher education contexts.

Abstract

This research aimed to analyze grammatical errors found in the background sections of theses written by English Education Study Program students at PGRI Silampari University who graduated in 2024. The study employed a qualitative descriptive method with primary data consisting of 34 background sections collected through purposive sampling. To identify the errors, the Grammarly Premium application was used as an automatic detection tool. The analysis revealed a total of 526 grammatical errors. The most frequent errors occurred in the use of determiners, incorrect verb forms, and incorrect noun numbers. These findings suggest that students continue to face challenges in mastering fundamental aspects of English grammar, particularly in areas that impact sentence accuracy and clarity. This study is expected to contribute to academic evaluation by highlighting common grammatical weaknesses in student writing. Moreover, the results may serve as valuable input for lecturers and curriculum developers in designing effective teaching strategies to improve students' writing skills in academic contexts.
