Abstract

This study explores the phenomenon of demotivation in essay writing among pre-service English teachers at UIN Palangka Raya. Academic writing is often perceived as difficult by EFL learners due to limited vocabulary, weak grammar, and challenges in organizing ideas, which reduce students’ confidence (Baehaqi, 2023). Moreover, even teachers tend to avoid academic writing because of insufficient knowledge and low confidence (Qamariah et al., 2023). Using a qualitative phenomenological design (Moustakas, 1994), data were collected through semi-structured interviews with ten students who had completed essay writing courses and analyzed through epoche, phenomenological reduction, imaginative variation, and synthesis of meanings and essences. The findings revealed seven themes of demotivation: language-related anxiety, unclear instruction and passive teaching style, loss of autonomy and relevance gap, time pressure and preparation gap, class format and timing issues, coping strategies, and supportive teaching as motivator. Both internal and external factors contributed to demotivation, yet students managed to cope through peer collaboration, self-regulation, and online resources, while supportive teaching emerged as a key factor in restoring motivation. This study contributes to the understanding of demotivation in EFL essay writing and underscores the importance of empathetic, autonomy-supportive, and process-oriented teaching practices in sustaining student engagemen.

Abstract

Students at MTs Hidayatul Insan experience difficulties in understanding spoken English due to conventional listening instruction that provides limited visual support and low engagement. To address this issue, a community service program was implemented using digital animation integrated with games, dialogues, and role-playing activities. The program aimed to integrate digital animation media and interactive teaching methods into English listening instruction while encouraging student participation and classroom engagement. Participants were ninth-grade students at MTs Hidayatul Insan. Data were collected through classroom observations, student feedback, and documentation and were analyzed descriptively. The findings indicate that digital animation provided visual and auditory support that encouraged students’ engagement with listening materials and promoted classroom participation. Furthermore, games, dialogues, and role-playing activities encouraged active participation, interaction, and meaningful language use. Overall, students demonstrated positive responses, high enthusiasm, and active involvement throughout the learning activities. The program demonstrates that the integration of digital animation media and interactive teaching methods can create a more engaging environment for English listening instruction in EFL classrooms.

Abstract

Kemampuan berkomunikasi dalam bahasa Inggris menjadi kebutuhan penting pada era globalisasi karena mendukung akses terhadap pendidikan, informasi, teknologi, dan peluang pengembangan karier. Namun, pembelajar bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing pada tingkat pemula masih menghadapi keterbatasan penguasaan kosakata dan struktur bahasa sederhana, rendahnya kepercayaan diri, serta minimnya kesempatan untuk mempraktekkan bahasa Inggris dalam komunikasi sehari-hari. Kondisi tersebut menunjukkan perlunya kegiatan pendampingan yang tidak hanya menekankan penguasaan materi kebahasaan, tetapi juga memberikan pengalaman menggunakan bahasa secara langsung, aktif, dan bermakna. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini berupa pendampingan edukatif-partisipatif yang bertujuan mengoptimalkan pemahaman dan kemampuan komunikasi bahasa Inggris dasar pada komunitas belajar informal di Kota Palangka Raya. Kegiatan melibatkan tujuh pembelajar bahasa Inggris tingkat pemula dan dilaksanakan melalui tiga tahapan utama, yaitu pengenalan bahasa Inggris dasar, penerapan pendekatan Communicative Language Teaching, dan praktik komunikasi bahasa Inggris. Teknik pelaksanaan meliputi penyampaian materi interaktif, diskusi, tanya jawab, kegiatan berbasis tugas, permainan peran, simulasi wawancara, percakapan berpasangan, serta latihan tertulis sederhana. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan tanya jawab awal, lembar observasi partisipasi, lembar kerja, praktik percakapan sederhana, dan refleksi peserta. Data hasil kegiatan dianalisis secara deskriptif dengan membandingkan kemampuan awal dan akhir peserta berdasarkan pemahaman materi, keaktifan, ketepatan penggunaan struktur bahasa, keberanian, dan kemampuan berkomunikasi. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa seluruh peserta terlibat aktif dalam setiap tahapan pembelajaran. Peserta mengalami peningkatan pemahaman mengenai kosakata, penggunaan to be, bentuk dasar kata kerja, dan bentuk negatif dalam kalimat sederhana. Peserta juga mulai mampu menyusun kalimat serta melakukan percakapan singkat mengenai aktivitas sehari-hari dengan tingkat keberanian dan kepercayaan diri yang lebih baik. Kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa pendampingan bahasa Inggris dasar dalam lingkungan non formal dan komunikatif dapat menjadi alternatif pembelajaran yang efektif untuk menguatkan partisipasi, pemahaman kebahasaan, dan kemampuan komunikasi dasar pembelajar tingkat pemula.
