Abstract

This study examines teachers' experiences in utilizing Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools for English language teaching at the senior high school level. In the digital era, ICT integration has become essential to enhance teaching effectiveness, foster student engagement, and support autonomous learning. Through a qualitative approach, interviews were conducted with two English teachers from SMA Negeri 2 Tanjungpinang to explore the benefits and challenges of ICT implementation. The findings highlight that ICT tools, including PowerPoint, Learning Management Systems (LMS), and collaborative platforms, significantly improve the teaching-learning process. These tools facilitate engaging multimedia-based instruction, effective assessment methods, and interactive learning environments. Applications like Elsa Speak also enhance students' speaking and pronunciation skills. Despite these advantages, several challenges were identified, such as limited technological infrastructure, insufficient teacher training, and inflexible features of certain platforms. For example, some quiz systems do not accept alternative answers, leading to inefficiencies. This study emphasizes the need for infrastructure improvements, continuous professional development for teachers, and the development of more adaptive ICT tools. These efforts are crucial to overcoming existing barriers and optimizing ICT integration in education. The findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, curriculum developers, and educators to enhance the quality of English language teaching and ensure equitable access to technology in learning.

Abstract

Writing is one of the most complex and challenging language skills for students in vocational high schools, especially in writing biography texts. This study aims to analyze the writing competence of eleventh-grade students in the Industrial Automation Engineering program at SMKN 3 Tanjungpinang through their biography text products. A qualitative descriptive approach was used, and data were collected through student worksheets containing tasks to write about public figures. The data were analyzed using four writing assessment criteria: content, organization, grammar, and mechanics, based on Brown's (2007) rubric. The findings showed that most students demonstrated relatively strong performance in the aspects of content and grammar, but faced significant difficulties in organizing coherent paragraphs and applying proper punctuation and spelling. The highest score obtained was 96, while the lowest score was 55, with an overall mean score of 80.64. These results show that although students have a strong foundation in writing skills, more contextualized, systematic and feedback-based learning strategies are needed. The application of genre-based approaches, the use of authentic model texts, and continuous training in text cohesion and coherence are recommended to comprehensively improve students' writing competence in the context of vocational education.
