Third, related to necessity on English subject, learning activities that students need to function effectively is to combine English and Indonesian as a medium in delivering material.

Therefore, students prefer to be corrected immediately by the lecturer when they make mistakes. To achieve learning effectiveness, students also expect the integration of a variety of activities and the development of learning materials.

Abstract

AbstractMicrolearning is becoming more popular in education due to its convenience, flexibility,  and effectiveness.  The popularity emerges from the use of chunking of materials in short and understandable components  that makes it easier for learners to attain the information at their convenience. Preferably, learning materials are microlearning-designed. However, since not many teachers are well-informed about microlearning, the existing learning materials may not be microlearning-based designed. Studies focusing on this issue are relatively limited. This study aims to analyze whether English learning materials at senior high school are designed based on microlearning principles. Twenty four English learning materials covering various types of materials including textbook, e-module, webpage, as well as, pre-recorded teaching and YouTube videos designed for grade X, XI, and XII collected from three senior high schools in Jakarta were analyzed using microlearning framework. The findings of this study show that the existing learning materials do not conform to microlearning  principles. The results of this study reveals the needs to design microlearning-based materials, break the lesson units into micro contents, and produce microlearning object materials for English lessons in high schools. Key Words: microlearning, English learning materials, microlearning object materials

Abstract

Numerous studies have been conducted to explore the phenomenon of code-switching. The results of this study carry significant implications for both lecturers and students, particularly in the context of ESP learning at the university level. This research aimed to delve into not only lecturers' perceptions but also students' attitudes and perceptions regarding the use of code-switching in EFL classrooms. Employing mixed methods design, specifically an explanatory sequential design, this study involved one lecturer and sixty students as participants. Data collection instruments included a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that the lecturers' code-switching is connected to the content being taught and the tasks being performed. They employ a system of secret codes as necessary. They employ code-switching to enhance communication and learning. Additionally, students had positive attitudes and perceptions toward the use of code-switching in ESP classrooms, as evidenced by the results of the students' questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. The majority of the pupils felt that their instructor's frequent use of code-switching benefited their education. They found that code-switching was crucial in the ESP classroom since it facilitated both teaching and learning. Moreover, it was acknowledged that code-switching can be used to improve their English skills. In addition, they reasoned that code-switching should be permitted in ESP classrooms so that lecturers can better assist their students and keep the lines of communication open between themselves and their pupils.

Abstract

Publishing scientific papers, particularly research articles (RAs), has become a requirement and essential component for academics’ life. As a result, there is a growing need for academics to produce research articles for international publications. However, many writers, especially novice and inexperienced ones, still struggle to achieve this goal because they fail to adhere to the accepted conventions. This study attempts to look into the rhetorical moves in full-length English RAs written by reputable Indonesian lecturers from the hard and soft sciences disciplines in the early stage of their careers. This study employed a modified framework of analysis proposed by Maswana et al. in 2015. The findings showed that, in general, the papers’ rhetorical structures from abstract to conclusion were quite comparable, reflecting the universal writing rules of a research paper. However, the striking difference lies in the method section, specifically the absence of Move 5 in all soft sciences articles. This may be due to disciplinary conventions. The findings of the study may offer insightful instructional material that can assist students or researchers in honing their academic writing abilities.Keywords: early-career; full-length English RAs; hard sciences; move analysis; rhetorical structure; soft sciences.
