Abstract

The principles of CLT align with the evolving needs of EFL learners. They address the demand for functional language skills that go beyond rote memorization and passive learning. Moreover, as language is generally seen as a tool for communication rather than a set of strict rules, CLT emphasizes interaction, authenticity, and real-world language use within the learning process. Through qualitative research design, the study aims to gain profound insights into the nuances of CLT application within this educational context. The primary participant is an experienced English teacher at an Islamic Elementary School in Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia. She was chosen for her extensive background in CLT and teaching experience. The instruments for data collection include classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with the teacher, aiming to understand the challenges, successes, and strategies employed in integrating CLT principles. As a result, CLT integrates mechanical, meaningful, and communicative practices, fostering language proficiency through active engagement in authentic communication scenarios. At the school, CLT methodologies are employed to create dynamic learning experiences tailored to students' needs, nurturing enthusiasm and fluency in English.

Abstract

Student perceptions are very important to educators. Student perceptions lie in how students interpret their educational experiences. Perceptions are shaped by individual experiences, backgrounds and learning styles. AI is becoming increasingly common in many industries, including education, as technology advances. AI is used in education to provide learning content that suits the needs of students. One of them is Gemini. Gemini is a large language model created by Google AI.  Gemini is an AI tool that can answer questions in an informative way, even when the questions are open-ended, challenging, or strange. The purpose of this research is to see students' perceptions of the use of AI technology, namely Gemini, as an auxiliary tool in the English Writing process. This research is a qualitative research. This study used the semi-structured interview method, where there are main questions and follow-up questions, where the follow-up questions will be based on the answers to the main questions given at the beginning. This study involved 9 EFL students out of 30 students who had been selected. Most students already have their own AI technology applications, so they think they are reluctant to adapt to AI technology applications like Gemini. But on the other hand, Gemini has many features that are very helpful in the writing process. Although for now students prefer AI technology applications that they have used before compared to Gemini, but when viewed from the perceptions given by students, researchers believe Gemini will be used as a writing tool in the future. This research can provide another option for students to facilitate the writing process so that they do not depend on the AI technology applications they have used before.

Abstract

Authentic assessment includes alternative assessments that engage students through authentic tasks with authentic materials. It includes performance assessment, portfolio, self-assessment, etc. These types of assessment may help teacher to monitor students’ learning progress and attitudes. In response to that, the present study aimed to discover students’ responses regarding the application of authentic assessment to help them read longer English texts. To achieve the purpose of the study, a case study was employed. Data were gathered from 16 week-observation, students’ work, and forms of students’ self-assessment. The results of the study revealed that despite a shift on the students’ motivation and learning behavior, a positive trend was indicated. At the beginning, students tended to show anxiety and hesitance when expressing their interpretation of reading text during in-class discussions. Throughout the time, they gradually invested more efforts, specifically in demonstrating their thoughts of reading materials. Additionally, the number of students actively delivering opinions were increasing.

Abstract

Using a video to reflect teaching  practice in EFL settings has been widely investigated. However, EFL preservice teachers’ engagement in  video stimulated reflection (VSR) process in teaching practicum context has been under researched. To fill this gap, this study aims to examine how EFL preservice teachers engaged in VSR during their teaching practicum. The phenomenological approach combined with the case study was used to make sense of EFL preservice teachers’ experience in reflecting their teaching practices stimulated by video during their teaching practicum. Data of the study were garnered from EFL preservice teachers’ multiple reflective writings. To ensure the accuracy and to avoid misinterpretation of the data, member checking was done. Engagement framework proposed by Bowden and Naumann was used as an analytical tool of the present study.  The findings of the study revealed that  EFL preservice teachers were cognitively, emotionally, socially and behaviorally engaged in video-stimulated reflection during their teaching practicum. These empirical findings provide insighs that EFL preservice teachers’ behavioral, emotional, social and cognitive engagement can be promoted through VSR that is crucial to improve their teaching quality. Recommendation and future studies are also discussed.

In a qualitative method with an open-ended survey and interview, 35 high school English teachers with at least 3 years of experience shared their experiences to overcome the learning loss. 10 teachers are clarifying their strategies to cope with learning loss due to Covid-19 school disruption by inadeptly interviewed. The thematic analysis of the data found that the teachers' strategies to overcome learning loss, teacher-student interaction, curriculum adaptation, and support from the government and school [1]. Most of the English teachers perceived that learning loss happened due to the lack of teacher-student interaction, inadequate facilities, and inauthentic writing skills during the Covid-19 pandemic. To overcome this, teachers adapted English modules with media technology to simplify English lessons and build learning independence despite the incomprehensive lessons. The support from the government and school-ICT training, technology teaching tools, internet, and E-learning sources - helps teachers reduce the learning loss possibility. The findings indicated the importance of supportive and adaptive English teachers in mitigating learning loss due to Covid-19 school disruption.
