Abstract

In the momentum of the 2035 Demographic Bonus and the vision of Golden Indonesia 2045, there are both challenges and great opportunities for Indonesia's education system, where students are required to have soft skills, character, and critical thinking abilities. To realize this, Practitioner Lectures serve as a tangible form of practice in building teaching competence by connecting theory with direct experience from the professional or working world. This article describes the implementation of a national webinar titled “Practical Lecture: Building Teaching Competence Through Real Practice,” organized by the English Education Study Program, West Sulawesi University. This Practitioner Lecture aims to train students to become class leaders and to carry out best teaching practices using the STAR Method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). The activity was held online via the Zoom Meeting platform on August 13, 2025, featuring experienced speakers in the field of education. A total of 69 participants attended and stayed until the end of the event. The event evaluation was conducted through an online form, covering satisfaction with the material, presenters’ delivery, and relevance to participants’ academic needs. Evaluation results proved that the implementation of the practitioner lecture in building teaching competence was very successful, with the majority of participants stating a combination of engaging and easy-to-understand material, good and interactive delivery, as well as opportunities to gain valuable insights and real experience for the development of teaching skills and the professional growth of future teachers. Through this training, participants will gain a deep understanding of teaching techniques that not only emphasize material delivery but also classroom management and increasing student engagement. The expected outcome is the creation of class leaders capable of managing learning more effectively and inspiringly, supporting the achievement of optimal educational goals.

Abstract

Enhancing academic literacy remains a major challenge in promoting scientific publication productivity in Indonesia, particularly in internationally reputable journals such as Scopus. This article describes the implementation and evaluation of a national webinar entitled “Write It Right: Strategies for Writing Scopus-Indexed Scientific Articles,” organized by the English Education Study Program of Universitas Sulawesi Barat. The webinar aimed to strengthen the academic capacity of lecturers, students, and education practitioners in writing scientific articles that meet international standards. The event was conducted online via the Zoom Meeting platform on January 30, 2025, featuring experienced speakers in the field of international publication. A total of 407 participants registered, with 334 participants attending until the end of the session. The event evaluation was carried out through an online form, covering participants' satisfaction with the material, the speaker’s delivery, and the relevance of the content to their academic needs. The evaluation results indicated a high level of satisfaction, with most participants reporting that they gained practical insights and new motivation for writing scientific articles. Participant feedback also revealed that the webinar enhanced their understanding of scientific writing strategies and opened opportunities for future research collaboration. These findings underscore the importance of organizing online academic training as an effective strategy to strengthen the culture of scientific literacy within higher education institutions.

Abstract

Self-regulated learning (SRL) remains underexplored in relation to specific learning management platforms across different SRL dimensions, particularly in post-pandemic Indonesian higher education. This study investigated how Google Classroom (GC) supported SRL among fifth-semester EFL students enrolled in a Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) course at Universitas Sulawesi Barat, Indonesia. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was employed, with quantitative data gathered from 47 students via a validated 12-item Likert-scale questionnaire, followed by semi-structured group interviews with 33 students across 11 purposively selected groups of three. Survey results indicated a high overall mean (M = 3.90, SD = 0.80, α = .933) across six SRL dimensions, with Planning and Time Management perceived as most strongly supported (M = 4.14) and Social Learning as least supported (M = 3.63). Thematic analysis yielded four themes: deadline notifications as a primary regulatory trigger, flexible material access enabling autonomous learning, unstable internet connectivity as a structural barrier, and limited collaborative affordances within the platform. The findings indicate that students perceived GC as particularly useful for planning, time management, and self-monitoring, although its support for social learning and co-regulation remained limited. These results carry practical implications for CALL pedagogy, platform design, and digital infrastructure investment in comparable higher education contexts.

Abstract

English language evaluation in West Sulawesi has long relied on culturally foreign materials, producing a digital cultural gap that alienates students from Mandar identity, while an emerging AI-centric paradigm risks eroding teachers' pedagogical agency. This study examines the dialectic and negotiation of meaning undertaken by five English teachers in the Mandar region as they transformed local ethnoliteracy including the sandeq boat, the Metawe' politeness tradition, and the Boyang traditional house into interactive English evaluation instruments through a Human-AI Co-Creation strategy. Adopting a qualitative, document-based Participatory Design, this article reports findings from reflexive thematic analysis of five prompt-engineering logs (coded T1–T5) produced during a Human-AI Co-Creation Workshop involving four generative AI platforms (DeepSeek, ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini). Analysis identified five interrelated themes: contextualizing prompts through curriculum and local culture, negotiating completeness of the evaluation structure, negotiating linguistic-level appropriateness, technical dialectic over AI system limitations, and validating substance to filter cultural hallucination. These themes were synthesized into a preliminary five-stage model of teacher–AI dialectic: Contextual Initiation, Initial AI Generation, Critical Teacher Audit, Negotiation and Iterative Revision, and Resolution. The findings indicate that teachers function as active co-designers rather than passive operators, and that the cultural accuracy of AI output depends heavily on the richness of the contextual input teachers supply at the outset. This document-analysis phase forms part of a broader study; teachers' phenomenological experience of the dialectic process will be examined separately through hermeneutic-phenomenological interview data in a subsequent publication.
