Abstract

The Indonesian Language Program for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) plays a strategic role in strengthening cultural diplomacy and promoting the internationalization of the Indonesian language. However, the implementation of BIPA programs at State Islamic Religious Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) across Java and Madura still faces various challenges, such as the absence of specific institutional policies, the lack of a standardized curriculum, limited supporting facilities, and teaching materials that do not meet the needs of foreign learners. This study aims to describe the problems of policy and program implementation at six PTKIN: UIN Sayyid Ali Rahmatullah Tulungagung, UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, IAIN Kediri, IAIN Syekh Nurjati Cirebon, IAIN Madura, and UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana’s interactive model. The findings indicate that BIPA program implementation remains suboptimal. Therefore, policy intervention, institutional strengthening, and the development of an integrative and needs-based BIPA learning model are urgently needed.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the challenges and opportunities in integrating literacy and technology in English Language Teaching (ELT) among English teachers within the English Teachers’ Community (MGMP Bahasa Inggris) in Trenggalek. The main objective is to investigate teachers' perspectives on literacy and its integration with digital tools in ELT. This review includes studies focused on literacy and technology integration in English education, particularly those involving teacher experiences in classroom settings, while excluding research unrelated to technology use or ELT practices. Sources were gathered from ERIC, Google Scholar, and Scopus, with the final search conducted in October 2024. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to gain an in-depth understanding of the issue. The risk of bias was assessed using methodological quality indicators and participant selection criteria. Thematic synthesis was used to analyze results across studies. The findings reveal that traditional literacy approaches—emphasizing reading and writing—remain dominant; however, there is growing recognition of the need to broaden literacy to include speaking, listening, problem-solving, and digital proficiency. Teachers reported using digital tools such as Google Classroom, Edmodo, Google Forms, WhatsApp, Duolingo, and various AI-based applications to support instruction. These tools present both challenges and opportunities. Challenges include concerns about declining writing skills due to digital communication habits and the complexity of integrating technology effectively into literacy instruction. Opportunities arise from technology’s potential to enhance student engagement, creativity, and expression by offering diverse methods for demonstrating understanding. The study concludes that literacy education must adapt to technological advancements, and educators need flexible strategies to foster comprehensive literacy skills aligned with contemporary demands. This adaptation requires ongoing professional development and supportive systems to ensure effective technology integration in ELT.

Abstract

This mini research aims to implement humanistic learning theory in English language instruction at Al Jumhuri Senior High School in Blitar. This research is dedicated to improving learners’ inner drive by utilizing a student-centered methodology grounded in humanistic principles and enriched by local cultural values. The approach, inspired by theorists such as Rogers and Maslow, underlines the necessity of emotionally responsive teaching, personal growth, and nurturing the whole person within a caring academic setting. The qualitative descriptive strategy guides the study, where the teacher-researcher collects insights through active observation in the classroom, reflective writings, and ongoing field documentation. The findings indicate that contextual implementation of the humanistic approach, blended with local values such as the culture of greeting, mutual cooperation (gotong royong), tolerance, and consensus-based decision-making (musyawarah) has a positive impact on student engagement and enthusiasm. As learners become more engaged, articulate their views more easily, and grow in their confidence using English, this approach proves effective. In parallel, it advances the Critical thinking, Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity (4Cs) of 21st-century learning, fostering not only intellectual development but also the building of strong character and cultural sensitivity. Thus, the study confirms that combining humanistic learning theory with local wisdom can serve as an effective strategy to enrich foreign language education in ways that are meaningful, relevant, and empowering both academically and socially.

Abstract

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is increasingly regarded as an effective approach in fostering both language and content knowledge simultaneously. While numerous studies emphasize its application in various educational contexts, there remains a significant gap concerning its implementation in higher education, particularly in speaking classes. This qualitative study investigates the implementation of CLIL in 5 speaking classes at UIN Sayyid Ali Rahmatullah Tulungagung, with particular attention to pedagogical practices, challenges, and learners’ perceptions. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The results indicate that although CLIL enriches communicative competence, various challenges such as limited material, teacher preparedness, and student readiness persist. The findings offer insights into improving speaking instruction and enhancing the integration of content and language in tertiary education.

Abstract

This study investigates the naming of traditional-concept restaurants and culinary menus in Greater Malang. The objectives are threefold: to analyze the forms of names at the phonological, morphological, and syntactic levels; to identify their associative meanings; and to reveal their sociocultural reflections. The study highlights the importance of naming practices, as names embody thoughts, ideas, and philosophical values. In the context of traditional restaurants, names serve not only as commercial labels but also as markers of cultural preservation amidst the strong influence of modernization. A descriptive qualitative research was used which data were collected from restaurant names and menus through observation, interviews, and documentation from online media such as Instagram and Google Maps. The data were analyzed using an anthropological linguistic approach, which situates language within its social and cultural contexts. The findings reveal that the naming of traditional-concept restaurants in Greater Malang contains both denotative and associative meanings. Associative meanings highlight humor, nostalgia, grandeur, and geographical identity. The use of Javanese terms reflects pride in tradition and reinforces values of egalitarianism, togetherness, and rural simplicity. Furthermore, the blending of local expressions with foreign terms illustrates an acculturation between Javanese tradition and global modernity, positioning naming practices as both a communication strategy and a representation of cultural identity.

Abstract

The differences in the phonological systems between Indonesian and Mandarin often cause difficulties for learners, especially in the consonant sounds zh, ch, sh, d, and t which do not have direct equivalents in Indonesian. These pronunciation difficulties, especially in junior high school students, are not free from errors in pronouncing the consonants h, ch, sh, d, and t, so this study shows and describes the form of pronunciation difficulties of the consonants zh, ch, sh, d, and t directly in grade IX students of SMP IT Cheng Hoo Makassar, and identifies the factors causing these difficulties. The research method used in this study is descriptive qualitative with 15 students as subjects. Data were collected through pronunciation tests, syllable tests, observations, structured interviews, and audio recordings. The results showed that most students had difficulty pronouncing the retroflex consonants zh and ch, as well as the aspirated consonant t. Errors that emerged included difficulties in tongue articulation, failure to distinguish between aspirated and non-aspirated sounds, and interference from Indonesian, for example, zh is pronounced as j and t is pronounced as d. Physiological factors such as a stiff tongue position also affect pronunciation accuracy. In conclusion, ninth-grade students of SMP IT Cheng Hoo Makassar still face significant challenges in pronouncing certain consonants in Mandarin. These findings emphasize the need for more targeted phonetic teaching strategies, such as explicit articulation exercises and the use of audio-visual media, so that students can improve their accuracy and confidence in speaking Mandarin.
