Journal of English for Academic and Specific Purposes (JEASP) a specialized journal of English language teaching (ELT) that meticulously tailors English language teaching-learning instructions to meet the precise needs of learners within various academic and professional fields. At its core, this journal focuses on English for Academic Purposes (EAP), emphasizing the enhancement of essential language skills—listening, reading, speaking, and writing—alongside the critical components of grammar and vocabulary. This targeted approach necessitates the development of specialized teaching language materials, strategies, and assessment that address the unique linguistic demands of each discipline. The scope of this journal (JEASP) is vast and diverse, encompassing English for Education, which equips educators and students with the language proficiency required for academic success; English for Laws, covering the specialized terminologies of family law, economic law, criminal law, and constitutional law; and English for Science and Technology, focusing on the linguistic needs of natural sciences and engineering. Additionally, this journal extends to English for Economics, addressing the specific language of finance, banking, and business; English for Humanities, which enhances communication in social and cultural studies, languages, and media; and English for Medicine and Health Community Services, supporting the complex language requirements of medicine, pharmacy, nursing, midwifery, and health analyses. By concentrating on these focused and scoped areas, this journal (JEASP) ensures that authors/readers are well-prepared to effectively navigate and excel in their respective academic and professional environments.

Abstract

Providing fruitful instructional material is essential to enhancing the learning process. One of the instructional materials is in the form of a teaching module. This qualitative study aimed at analyzing the content of an English teaching module entitled “Practical English” which was used by non-English majoring students. The evaluation checklist proposed by Chunningsworth was adopted to examine some aspects of the teaching module including the organization of the teaching module, grammar, language skills, listening, speaking, reading, writing, topic and subject content, learner needs, and learning/teaching procedures. In addition, a post-use evaluation was carried out to find the strengths and the shortcomings of the book, which gave an invaluable overview that could be applied to prepare further instructional materials. The results of the present study revealed that the book met most criteria of the evaluation checklist. The teaching module was well organized and presented integrated language skills including listening, speaking, reading, and writing in a meaningful context by providing authentic materials to engage students in realistic contexts. The vocabulary development material in the teaching module, however, was its weak point. The book lacked an index of language terms as well as any clear explanation of vocabulary based on semantic links. In short, the findings of the present study could be valuable for EFL teachers in providing teaching modules as instructional materials to boost successful learning

Abstract

This study scrutinizes the common types of directive speech act performed by the teacher in the form of written feedback along with its function classification. Descriptive qualitative was used as the research design. For data collection, observation and documentation were used to obtain utterances performed by the speaker. In this regard, one English lecturer at one of universities in Indonesia was chosen teaching one class under the subject of Advanced Reading. Then, thematic analysis was used to analyze and categorize the data set. There were 81 number of data found from this study as directive speech act in the teacher feedback. This study revealed that direct acts were dominant with 50 data while the indirect acts consisted of 31 data. Furthermore, out of six (6) types of directive speech acts, the findings demonstrated that the function of requestives and questions were the most frequent acts performed by the teacher in the feedback. The result of this study suggested that the further research may take account into different criteria of giving feedback, such as the other types of speech acts, the teacher gender, and the subject of the class.

Abstract

Much research on language acquisition, from nativist to interactionist, describes Morpheme Order Studies as a major development in second language acquisition.  This paper intended to discuss how spoken data from a Japanese student could be used to indicate the level of acquisition of English morphemes attained via the processability theory but actually determined that an order of acquisition does not necessarily apply.  Results showed that the informant varied in success in supplying correct morphemes in obligatory contexts, that her first language did not interfere with her second language acquisition and the accuracy of using morpheme order sequence to determine the level of acquisition breaks down because learner’s developmental sequence is unpredictable.

Abstract

The phenomenon of fossilization as the feature of interlanguage has been acknowledged and studied many times since the emergence of the theory proposed by Selinker which came into existence in the field of SLA in 1972. The premise of interlanguage as a separate language system used by second language learners as well as foreign language learners in learning their target language is credited to Selinker. Fossilization in interlanguage is coined by Selinker and is generally defined as a cessation of learning the target language. Nevertheless, the notion that interlanguage is fossilized is still open to question. Thus, this present study aims to provide insight to the reader about the concept of fossilization by defining and characterizing interlanguage and fossilization in second and foreign language acquisition, discussing the causes of fossilization in interlanguage development, as well as examining the relationship between interlanguage development and Universal Grammar principle in an attempt to help the reader better grasp and comprehend the phenomenon.

Abstract

Learning to write English on a wall is what a Padlet may look like to those who have used this virtual pinboard. This digital tool is easy to use yet effective for assisting students in learning to write. This study investigated the effectiveness of integrating Padlet on students’ writing skills in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) classrooms. 78 ESP students at a State Islamic University participated in this study. To collect data, pre and post-tests were administered. The data was analyzed using the t-test for independent samples. The results from the pre-post tests showed a significant enhancement in students’ writing skills. The results revealed that the integration of Padlet is effective in improving students’ writing skills in English language learning. Lastly, practical and essential suggestions related to the result of the study are discussed, particularly for future researchers, English language teachers, and ESP students.
