Abstract

This research study aimed at revealing the strategies employed by successful English as a Foreign Language (EFL) doctoral candidates in accomplishing their dissertation writing and their perspectives in association with the stages of research report writing.  This is a narrative qualitative inquiry, and the data were collected through an in-depth interview with ten successful EFL fresh graduates who had completed their dissertation writing within six and seven semesters. Using a retrospective technique, the respondents were asked to recall their experiences and activities during the process of writing their dissertation. The results reveal that the successful doctoral candidates used four main strategies of dissertation writing: cognitive, metacognitive, affective, and social strategies. In completing each of the dissertation stages, the doctoral candidates spent much time reading a huge collection of research articles, writing their dissertation on a daily basis, and having intensive consultation with their advisors. This study would be useful for EFL doctoral students to avoid delay in completing their studies and to meet their academic timeline so that they can face their challenging dissertation writing to complete their study on time.

Abstract

The present study highlighted the importance of pre-service teachers’ teaching competences in English Language Teaching (ELT). Facts show that empowering pre-service teachers is very important, but inspiring lecturers to implement a suitable teaching model takes time. Thus, this study aimed to determine how student-teacher conferences and video-recorded microteaching sessions (VRMS) affected pre-service teachers’ competences. Besides, the self-reflection of the pre-service teachers after watching their own teaching performance video and the conference with the lecturer was also investigated to see their behaviors towards their teaching performances. This mixed-method study involved one group and applied three main instruments to collect data: interviews (student-teacher conferences), checklists of teacher self-evaluation forms, and teaching practicum performance tests using a scoring rubric adapted from Brown (2000). There were 20 participants who were taking the Microteaching Course at the Department of English Education, Universitas Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The study was conducted in one consecutive semester consisting of 16 meetings, each of which was 200 minutes long (4 credits). The results proved that student-teacher conferences and VRMS stimulated pre-service teachers’ teaching competences. Pre-service teachers grew their self-reflection after watching their own teaching videos and understood their strengths and weaknesses after getting student-teacher conferences. It implies that the improvement of their teaching competences resulted from a process involving the willingness to do self-reflection and the lecturer’s help in understanding what areas the pre-service teachers had to improve. The implications of the study are also presented and discussed in this paper.

Abstract

Effective learning activities in the classroom that motivate students toward language proficiency should be thoughtfully implemented. One notable method is task-technology fit (TTF), which combines task-based language learning (TBLL) and project-based learning (PjBL). This study explores this intersection through video project-based learning (VPBL). It seeks to understand how VPBL interventions influence students' speaking proficiency, especially in areas of complexity, accuracy, and fluency, while also examining the role of students' self-efficacy and self-reflection. Utilizing a pre-experimental design without a control group, this research was conducted among second-year students of the English Education Program at Universitas PGRI Kanjuruhan Malang in their Speaking course. 37 students participated in a speaking test prompt and answered self-reflection and self-efficacy questionnaires, while 8 students underwent a more detailed interview regarding their VPBL experience. Results showed a general enhancement in speaking proficiency, primarily due to VPBL's unique structure and the student's capacity for self-reflection. Although improvements in fluency and accuracy were noted, there was not significant progress in complexity, indicating that while students utilized VPBL for refining their speaking skills, further efforts are required to advance their linguistic intricacy.

Abstract

Project based-learning (PjBL), focusing on students’ creativities in producing a particular task, has been variously integrated into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction to promote students’ skills. To support PjBL, teachers have integrated the use of technologies in the classroom since technologies enable teachers to modify teaching-learning activities. One of the modes of technology commonly applied is video project-based learning (VPBL) due to its benefits for both teachers and students. Research reveals the benefits of integrating PjBL and VPBL by focusing on the learning outcomes. In addition, self-reflection, as the ability of students to assess themselves regarding how and what they have learned and done in the tasks, might empower students to be better. This study highlights the benefits of self-reflection in English language learning through VPBL. VPBL empowers learners to create videos on topics of interest, using English as the communication medium. This study is a kind of literature research summarizing the findings of the previous studies on the utilization of self-reflection on students’ speaking projects. The study found that VPBL fosters self-reflection among learners, as they must plan, produce, and evaluate their work. Self-reflection is a crucial skill for language learning, as it helps learners to identify their strengths and weaknesses, set goals, and monitor their progress. The powers of self-reflection in English language learning using VPBL indicate that teachers must employ such cases in the classrooms.

Abstract

Integrating Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into language learning has shifted how English classes are administered. The shift in teaching instruction from pen and paper-based activities to online-based approaches has led to interactive blogging to make the classes more authentic, motivating, and communicative. Thus, this paper mainly examines two significant issues: 1) how interactive blogging benefited the writing class when online feedback took place and 2) how the EFL students actively participated in the interactive blogging atmospheres. This study employed school-based action research involving 30 students majoring in the English Language Program of a university in Malang, Indonesia, who actively participated in the study. The data were taken from interviews, open-ended questionnaires, and writing tests. The findings revealed that online feedback in interactive blogging increases students’ writing performance covering CAF (complexity, accuracy, and fluency), and it enables students to interact more frequently with their teacher and classmates inside and outside the classroom. This indicates that teachers must empower students with technologies and more student-student and student-teacher interactions in writing classes. However, it is not as easy as paper and pen-based writing activities when giving and understanding online feedback.

Abstract

The current research focused into the possible advantages of using Canva apps to improve writing abilities among kinesthetic, visual, and auditory learners. the objectives study of this research are: 1) To find out the effectiveness of using Canva had better achievements in writing recount texts than those taught by using picture series, 2) To find out whether learning styles affect achievement in writing by using Canva. Two classes were chosen at random to serve as the control and experimental groups. Canva was used to teach the experimental group, while non-computer-based instruction was used for the control group. To assess the efficacy of Canva use, a posttest was given following six sessions. The results indicated a significant improvement in writing achievements for students taught by using Canva compared to those without (sig. 0.000 ≤ sig. 0.05). Students that were taught using Canva had an N-Gain score of 0.52. It showed that using Canva to raise students' performance was successful, putting it in the middle range. Additionally, a factorial approach using a two-way ANOVA was employed to ascertain whether learning styles have an impact on Canva writing achievement. A significance value of 0.004 (sig. 0.004 < 0.05) was found by the computation. This led to the study’s implication that students' use of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles enhances their academic performance. The study's findings also indicate that employing media based on students' learning styles is a significant factor in improving their skills.

Abstract

Despite several studies on feedback, little is known about the benefits of the student-teacher relationship in providing feedback. This study therefore aimed to investigate the effects of teacher feedback on students' writing performance. The feedback was divided into two formats: Direct Feedback and Indirect Feedback. Students' writing performance in the study refers to the quality of students' writing when composing a descriptive paragraph. In addition, this study also explored the voices of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students after being treated with different feedback modes under specific circumstances of the student-teacher relationship. The study adopted a mixed methods design, using a test, a semi-structured interview and a questionnaire as instruments to obtain qualitative and quantitative data. The study involved 50 secondary school students who were divided into two groups of 25 students each. The results showed that direct feedback stimulated students' writing performance better than indirect feedback. In addition, the feedback treatments could maximize students' writing performance if a good student-teacher relationship was developed in the classroom. This implies that maintaining a good student-teacher relationship in the EFL classroom is beneficial.
