Abstract

This study investigated the perceptions of health department students at State Polytechnic of Jember, Indonesia, on how effective Wordwall helps them enrich their English vocabulary during online learning. The researcher used a qualitative approach. Data was collected from ten participants who were chosen based on their activeness while studying and who always participated in the teaching and learning process. It was collected through an open-ended questionnaire distributed via Google Form. Based on the result of the present study, the researcher discovered that the students had positive perception towards the use of Wordwall and they were very enthusiastic about learning vocabulary through the application. The participants also mentioned that this app offers a variety of interactive and creative vocabulary games. The disadvantage is that this application does not provide a place for students to explain their correct and incorrect answers. The students can learn about context and sentence changes by playing games. The result of the study also revealed that Wordwall is an effective learning media for enriching students' vocabulary. Thus, it is suggested that lecturers should utilize this application to help their students become more motivated to learn English vocabulary.

Abstract

During the early pandemic, teachers and students were abruptly forced to conduct teaching and learning remotely. Both were struggling to cope with the challenges in the emergency remote teaching (ERT) situation. It was quite common to hear students and teachers wishing to go back to school immediately for various reasons. After two years of remote teaching, some schools begin to open for face-to-face or offline learning. It is then interesting to know how the students and teachers responded to the school/ campus opening. This paper reports a small-scale survey involving 110 respondents, both teachers, and students at the secondary and tertiary levels. Thematic coding analysis was carried out to analyze the participants’ responses. This study revealed that 80% of the respondents opted for online distance learning over offline learning during the pandemic although they reported challenges of teaching and learning within the online mode. The percentage shifted after two years of distance learning. In terms of mode preference, 56% of respondents prefer to go back to offline mode but the remaining 44% want to stay in the online remote mode of teaching and learning. While the majority chose offline learning, several themes of concern emerged from the responses, and reverse eco-shock is the most prominent. As the students and teachers acknowledged the benefits and build comfort in the online teaching and learning environment, they indicate the reimaging of offline teaching and learning. It implies that the practice of offline learning will not be similar to that before the pandemic

Abstract

Peer assessment is a fundamental activity aiming to involve students to participate actively in their own learning processes. In the context of EFL online learning, the peer assessment was conducted in the online mode as well. This study aimed to: 1) compare students’ attitudes in doing an online peer assessment in two different conditions of anonymity, 2) explore students’ perceptions of the anonymous and identifiable online peer assessment.  Seventy students of the English language education department in a private university participated in this study. Assigned to two different conditions, i.e anonymous and identifiable online peer assessment, the students were engaged in a Workshop activity, which was an asynchronous Moodle-based online peer assessment. Each student assessed three peers’ works as well as provide feedback comments. A questionnaire with close-ended and open-ended questions was used to investigate the students’ attitudes as well as perceptions of the different peer assessment formats. An independent samples t-test was performed to compare the attitude scores of both groups. The result indicated that students in the anonymous group showed a slightly better attitude compared to those in the identifiable group, yet the difference was not significant (t = 1.164, p > .05). From the questionnaire result, it was also found that the students in the anonymous group had more positive perceptions towards online peer assessment activity. These findings imply that while the anonymous online peer assessment is more favoured by learners, it might not be able to guarantee positive development in students’ overall aspects of attitudes.

Abstract

Out of the 41 countries that run the Indonesian Language Learning Program for Foreign Speakers, in collab with the Language Development and Cultivation Agency under the auspices of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia, Austria is one of them. When the learning went online due to the Covid-19 pandemic, teachers, students, and Indonesian Language for Foreign Speakers class organizers, the Indonesian Embassy in Vienna together with the University of Vienna, faced challenges. Based on this background, this study aims to describe the challenges of Indonesian Language teachers for Austrian when they implement the learning by online. This research uses a qualitative approach with the type of case study research. The writer got the data through interviews and questionnaires to Indonesian Language teachers for Austrian from winter 2020 to winter 2021 and was strengthened by literature studies. As a result, teachers face various challenges such as technical issues with the devices and internet networks, and time gaps between Indonesia and Austria. Online classes are widely open for everyone in Austria, but at the same time amount of students is also rising because some of them preferred to do it face to face, and the difficulty of managing online classes with high heterogeneity. The efforts made by teachers in responding to these challenges include varying learning activities, opening communication spaces with students through various platforms, utilizing various online platforms that are relevant to learning topics, and organizing and inviting guest lecturers for speaking class and cultural topics.

Abstract

Technology integration in foreign language classroom is a prerequisite in this post pandemic era. Social media technologies have a great promise to boost efficacy of language learning and students’ engagement. As one of the social media platforms, Instagram rapidly gained popularity, with one billion registered users in 2018 and it is still growing bigger today.  It introduced hashtags to help users discover both photos and each other. As student teachers of English, teaching skill is a big must. In teaching practice, the learning engagement is reflected by giving peer feedback. Creative and innovative peer feedback can encourage the student teachers’ professional development as a teacher. Therefore, this study sheds light on the use of Instagram as the media for giving student teachers peer feedback after they have teaching practice in the form of microblog by using carousel photos and hashtag in Instagram. Thus, qualitative method is chosen to capture the objective of the study by questionnaire, documentation and semi-structured interview. The finding of this study is expected to provide new insight to develop engagement especially in giving feedback in the teaching practice for EFL student teachers in this hybrid learning.

Abstract

This pandemic has forced Book Report classes which are based on Extensive Reading Principles to be conducted online. This condition makes lecturers and students unable to conduct activities that are designed predominantly for offline classes. Therefore, the writer had to make some adjustments to the online learning environment. This practice is not yet studied extensively, hence, this paper aims to find out students’ perceptions related to extensive reading practices and how the implementation helps them learn English by analyzing data from Google Form, interview results, and lecturer’s notes and observation. The participants of this study are twenty-six students from Book Report D. The results of this study show students’ positive perception towards all activities in the class (ranging from 40.7% to 66.7% for each activity) and 96.3% of students considered they have positive progress from the beginning until the end of the class. These results show, that despite the challenges, educators should still apply extensive reading practices in their classes considering the benefits students could get from doing so.
