Abstract

Although many studies have explored teacher questioning strategies (TQS) in EFL classrooms, only some studies have been conducted in EFL online classes in a vocational high school context. This study aims to shed the EFL online classroom practices regarding using first language and teacher's questioning strategy. To this end, a qualitative case study was conducted at one public vocational school in Karawang, West Java, Indonesia. Data were collected through Zoom recordings for four sessions and classroom observation. Additionally, follow-up interviews were conducted after the classes. The data were analysed with thematic analysis. The findings revealed bilingual classrooms with teachers adopting the first language to build rapport, ice-breaking, and grammar explanation. The teachers also adopted various TQS: rephrasing, repetition, simplification, and decomposition. The findings confirm the roles of teachers' questioning strategies to improve students' engagement. This engagement contributes to students' understanding, resulting in enhanced learning effectiveness. Therefore, teachers need to strengthen their awareness of their questioning abilities to optimise the teaching and learning experience in the classroom.

Abstract

Because of its emphasis on superimposing virtual information on top of real environments, augmented reality (AR) technology in education has emerged as a cutting-edge and promising field in both research and practice. This sets learning in a different context from traditional learning and opens up a whole new creative realm for learning.. The gap between teaching methods and the technological environment is increasing as a result of students' disinterest and low motivation when using traditional teaching approaches as well as teachers' reluctance to implement learning with technology. The lack of knowledge and ability of teachers at SDN Larangan 5, Tangerang City in the use and use of integrated technology in classroom teaching is still limited, especially for Augmented Reality (AR) technology, so boredom and lack of variety in the disclosure of their teaching materials often occur, which has an impact on learning outcomes. which is not optimal. This community service activity aims to achieve knowledge transfer by socializing learning content by utilizing Augmented Reality (AR) technology using a smartphone or tablet which will later be used to see and observe objects from the markers that have been provided. This activity uses the Community-Based Participatory Action Research (CBPAR) method with three core stages of the CBPAR action cycle, namely: planning, implementation and evaluation. And the results of the analysis of this activity state that there has been an increase in knowledge and interest regarding the use of technology, especially Augmented Reality (AR) technology which is included in learning activities with analysis results of 50%.

Abstract

Needs analysis is essential for developing a curriculum and teaching materials. Integration of technology in courses provides a supportive environment for learners across a wide range of courses. However, the needs analysis on the technology-integrated Basic English Grammar course learning is insufficient. This report aims to determine students' needs for studying Basic English Grammar courses through technology integration. For this purpose, the researchers used a descriptive qualitative design by distributing questionnaires. Twenty-four students completed the questionnaire, and the researchers recruited several students for interviews. The results of this study reveal students' expectations for technology-integrated assignments, such as submitting writing caption chores to Instagram, with a 48 per cent success rate. The technology-integrated Basic English Grammar course learning presences depict the most commonly used technologies such as YouTube, Instagram, the Quiz app, Google Classroom, Webbing, and e-Books. The researchers identified the lack of internet connection and an overabundance of information that perplexes students—this suggests the necessity to provide training to cope with the technological challenges of learning Basic English Grammar. The study proposes a teaching-learning situation in the Basic English Grammar course with technology integration as learning activities materials in the syllabus so that the teachers as the curriculum makers can develop the curriculum according to the needs of students. This report highlights that lecturers and universities perform periodic assessments of their students' needs as a basis for developing a curriculum with these reflective needs. In addition, the pedagogical implications for technology-integrated tools in the Basic English Grammar course are discussed.
