Abstract

This study investigates the role of early and sustained exposure to English-language music in the natural acquisition of English grammar among Indonesian learners with mixed-age backgrounds. It explores music as a primary source of comprehensible input in a context with limited formal instructional resources. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving eleven participants from Ambon and Dobo, Indonesia, including the author, with ages ranging from 12 to adulthood. Data collection included analysis of participants' original social media captions , focusing on specific grammatical structures such as verb tense and article usage, and semi-structured interviews exploring their histories of music exposure. This approach provided a source of authentic, unprompted language data to complement self-reported experiences. All participants demonstrated a strong, intuitive command of English grammar in unprompted writing. This competence was unanimously attributed to long-term, intergenerational engagement with English music, which provided extensive, repetitive input that allowed for the internalization of grammatical patterns. The findings suggest that music can serve as a powerful, motivating, and accessible bridge for English grammar acquisition for learners of various ages, offering a model for informal language learning. Supporting the principles of Krashen's Input Hypothesis, this study highlights the potential of leveraging music as a key pedagogical tool to supplement formal language instruction.

Abstract

This service aims to improve practical English competence and financial literacy of students of Upuupung State Junior High School, Southwest Maluku, a disadvantaged and remote area with limited access to education. The methods used are participatory learning and experiential learning through two modules: English for Daily Life (greeting, everyday vocabulary, family and village descriptions, simple transactions) and Simple Accounting and Financial Literacy (introduction to money, distinguishing needs and wants, saving, simple financial record-keeping). The activity was attended by 40 students for one month, culminating in the "Upuhupun Mini Market Day" simulation that integrated both skills. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' confidence in communicating in English, understanding the concept of money management, and the practical ability to carry out simple buying and selling transactions. The outputs produced include teacher guide modules, reading corners containing English storybooks and financial literacy, and learning media. The obstacles faced are limited time, facilities, and weather conditions. The conclusion of this service is that contextual, integrative, and fun approaches have proven to be effective in empowering students in the 3T area. Sustainability recommendations include the adoption of role-play methods and simple projects by teachers, as well as the implementation of Market Day as an annual school activity.

Abstract

Developing EFL listening comprehension in isolated territories remains an arduous task due to severe digital divide constraints and minimal target language exposure. Posing a critical need to understand how students navigate these barriers within archipelagic education contexts, this study examined listening proficiency, metacognitive awareness, and environmental obstacles at a frontier satellite campus. Sixty undergraduate students completed an objective listening assessment and a metacognitive questionnaire, supplemented by semi-structured interviews with ten participants experiencing the realities of remote learning. Diagnostic data revealed a moderate-low performance average, where listening scores linked positively with focused attention but dropped significantly when students relied heavily on mental translation. Qualitatively, participants suffered from vocabulary-processing friction, accent anxiety, and internet-disruption fatigue. Ultimately, expanding communication competence in marginalized borders requires transitioning from online-dependent models toward localized, offline-first instructional materials that combine explicit cognitive training with culturally responsive, human-in-the loop AI tools, which are presented here as a practitioner-level framework awaiting empirical validation. Keywords: EFL listening comprehension, metacognitive awareness, archipelagic education, digital divide, remote learning
