Abstract

This study explores students’ perceptions of teachers’ verbal and nonverbal communication and how these communication behaviors influence classroom interaction and learning outcomes. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, observation and interview were used to gained the data. Two foreign language lecturers from Universitas Negeri Makassar were chosen as the sample of this research. The findings show that effective classroom interaction emerges from the combination of verbal and nonverbal communication rather than from a single medium of communication. Finding revealed that various forms of teacher behavior, such as explaining material with hand gestures, giving directions supported by gestures, smiling while asking questions, maintaining appropriate personal distance, and offering praise accompanied by positive facial expressions, significantly enhanced their learning experience. These combination of verbal and nonverbal communication helped students understand explanations more easily, encouraged them to speak, increased their enjoyment of the learning process, and boosting their spirit. Overall, this study demonstrates that meaningful classroom interaction is shaped by the teacher’s ability to integrate verbal explanations with effective nonverbal communication, highlighting the importance of communication awareness and training for teachers in higher education.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the adaptation of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners to AI-based writing tools in academic context. Although AI-based writing tools were progressively implemented into language education, limited research has explored how EFL learners interpreted and adapted to these tools. In particular, structured frameworks are infrequently applied to comprehensively analyze this perception. The study employed a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis to investigate EFL learners’ perceptions of AI writing tools such as Chat-GPT, Grammarly, or Quillbot. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews involving 25 university EFL students. The findings uncovered that students conceived time efficiency and instant grammar feedback as key strengths. In contrast, excessive reliance and deficiency of deep academic understanding were seen as major weaknesses. Opportunities comprised enhanced writing confidence and facilitated idea generation and structured academic writing, while threats focus on diminished critical thinking and passive plagiarism. The results emphasized the demand for ethical pedagogical strategies to guide AI integration in language education.

Abstract

Background. Psycholinguistics plays an important role in explaining how individuals acquire, process, understand, and produce language through various cognitive mechanisms. Purpose. This study aims to examine the role of psycholinguistics in language learning and language development by integrating theoretical foundations and recent empirical findings. Methods. It employed a literature review method using data from peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2020 and 2025, as well as seminal books and theoretical works in psycholinguistics relevant to the topic. The selected literature focused on language learning, language acquisition, cognitive processes, social interaction, affective factors, and digital technology in language education. Data were analyzed descriptively and critically to identify major concepts, research trends, and practical implications. Results. The findings indicate that language learning is influenced by the interaction of cognitive, social, and affective factors. Working memory, attention, and information processing contribute significantly to language acquisition, while social interaction and positive affective conditions support language development and communicative competence. Empirical evidence also demonstrates that digital technologies enhance cognitive engagement, vocabulary retention, and personalized learning experiences. Conclusion. The study concludes that psycholinguistics serves not only as a theoretical framework for understanding language processes but also as a practical foundation for developing effective, adaptive, and learner-centered language learning strategies in the digital era.
