Abstract

This study investigates Indonesian teachers’ perceptions of Duolingo as a supplementary tool for English instruction, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and feasibility in formal education. Using a qualitative case study at SMP Miftahul Husna, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis. Findings indicate that while Duolingo enhances student engagement and autonomous learning through gamification, challenges persist regarding its limited emphasis on productive language skills, curriculum alignment, and technological accessibility. Teachers highlight the need for a blended learning approach that integrates Duolingo with structured classroom instruction to support communicative competence. This study offers insights into the role of digital platforms in Indonesian education and provides recommendations for their effective integration.

Abstract

This study investigated EFL students’ perceptions of using the Cake application as a pedagogical tool to enhance English speaking skills, employing a qualitative, student-centered approach. The data were collected using two modified questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. A purposive sampling method is applied to select the research participants. Thematic content analysis was applied to interpret the data. The research participants consist of 39 EFL students enrolled at one of the State Senior High Schools in Medan who have played Cake more than twice. The findings revealed that most students perceive the Cake app positively, citing improvements in vocabulary acquisition, pronunciation, confidence, and engagement in language learning. Key advantages included interactive features, flexible access, and enjoyable learning experiences. However, limitations such as a lack of grammar instruction in sufficient writing support and internet dependency were also reported. The study suggests that integrating a mobile language learning tool, such as Cake, into a dynamic environment can significantly support the development of speaking proficiency.
