Abstract

This research investigates the use of the Let's Read application from the perspective of recreational readers, focusing on students from the English study program at UIN Datokarama Palu. The study aims to understand how students define recreational reading, explore their experiences using the application, and identify encountered challenges. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research gathered data through document reviews and semi-structured interviews with five purposively selected participants. Data analysis followed thematic coding framework guided by Miles and Huberman's qualitative data analysis model. Findings revealed that students possess clear conceptual understanding of recreational reading as leisure activity distinct from academic obligations. The Let's Read application was appreciated for its accessibility, offline reading features, and culturally relevant content. Participants reported increased reading frequency and strengthened identity as recreational readers. However, challenges included limited content targeting older readers, technical issues such as unstable connections, and search limitations within the application. The study concludes that while Let's Read significantly supports recreational reading, enhancements in content diversity and user experience are needed to better serve older student readers. The research offers insights for developers, educators, and policymakers seeking to promote digital literacy and reading engagement through mobile applications.

Abstract

Reading comprehension remains a persistent challenge for many EFL learners, especially at the junior high school level, where students often struggle to actively engage with texts. This study, however, examined the effectiveness of the Taking and Making Notes (TMN) technique in improving reading comprehension in these situations. This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design with 64 eighth-grade students at SMPN 1 Palu involving two parallel classes. The experimental class was taught using the TMN technique, while the control class was taught using the conventional method. Data were obtained through pre- and post-tests, consisting of 20 multiple-choice questions and essays. SPSS version 31 was used to conduct statistical analysis, including descriptive statistics, normality and homogeneity tests, Independent and Paired Samples t-tests. The results showed that the experimental class achieved a significant increase in the mean score from 49.06 during the pre-test to 80.78 during the post-test; meanwhile, the control class's score only increased from 53.75 to 66.56. By increasing students' active engagement, improving retention, and enhancing their thinking skills, the independent samples t-test showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups (p < 0.05), indicating that TMN can be a useful method for improving students' reading comprehension.

Abstract

Recreational Reading Habits of the EFL Pre-Service Teachers in an Indonesian Islamic Higher Education. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the recreational reading habits of EFL pre-service teachers at Islamic universities, with a focus on the relationship between the duration of recreational reading and academic achievement. Furthermore, this study also examines differences in reading time based on gender, age, level of study, and students' reading preferences. Methods: This research employed a mixed-methods approach through a cross-sectional survey design and case study, involving 56 students from three classes of the English Language Education Study Program at UIN Datokarama Palu. Data were collected through an online survey, semi-structured online interviews, and document analysis. These data were then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, as well as thematic analysis, to explore quantitative patterns and qualitative meanings in depth.­ Findings: The results of the study showed that involvement in recreational reading activities had a very moderate relationship with the academic achievement of the EFL preservice teachers, indicating that although recreation reading may increase their language awareness and learning motivation, its direct impact on academic achievement was still relatively limited. It was found that 50% of the respondents read for less than one hour per week, reflecting low levels of recreational reading engagement. Differences were also evident based on demographics, with female students and younger age groups tending to read more frequently and preferring digital texts and short reading materials such as online stories and motivational content. Despite limited reading time, students who regularly engage in recreational reading demonstrate better academic achievement, wider vocabulary mastery, and positive attitudes towards learning English. Conclusion: This study confirms the importance of recreational reading culture in supporting academic success, independent learning, and long-term intellectual development. Islamic universities are expected to foster a culture of reading for pleasure by integrating it into the curriculum, strengthening library facilities, and utilizing digital platforms. Keywords: pre-service EFL teachers, recreational reading habits, reading for pleasure.

Abstract

Background: Classroom management in EFL setting is pivotal not only for maintaining order but also for fostering academic achievement and creating a positive learning environment. Purpose: This study employs qualitative a case study approach to examine classroom management practices within English as a Foreign Language (EFL) setting, focusing specifically on eleventh grade at SMAN 2 Sigi. Method: This qualitative case study collected data through semi-structured interviews with one EFL teacher and ten students, supplemented by document review, and data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key patterns in the data. Results and Discussion: The study reveal that both the EFL teacher and students demonstrates a shared positive understanding of classroom management. The EFL teacher implemented comprehensive the aspects of classroom management based on Marzono’s theory (2005), including rules and procedures, discipline and consequences, positive EFL teacher-students relationships, and awareness and flexibility in responding to classroom dynamics, which enhanced students comfort, engagement, and motivation. However, barriers such as low basics skill in English, emotional instability, inadequate facilities and curriculum implementation, and disruptive behaviors persisted, aligning with Bronfenbrenner’s theory (2005) on external influences affecting learning outcomes. This study addresses a gap in understanding local implementation of Marzono’s theory and is further integration of Bronfenbrenner’s theory in Indonesia EFL contexts. Conclusions and Implications: The implementation of classroom management in EFL setting, specifically in eleventh grade at SMAN 2 Sigi reveal that the EFL teacher applies classroom management in a structured, proactive, affective, and flexible, which enhances student engagement and positive classroom interactions. The findings emphasize the importance of the EFL teacher’s dedication, flexibility, and awareness in responding to the frequently changing classroom dynamics, while also providing a comprehensive understanding of classroom management practices, the integration of two theories, and the influence of social, cultural, and institutional factors on EFL learning.
