Abstract

This study explores the implementation of Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) in authentic field interactions between Indonesian university students and a foreign tourist in Yogyakarta. The research aimed to explore (1) students’ perceptions of TBLT activities, (2) the effectiveness of task-based interaction in enhancing speaking fluency, and (3) tourist’s responses to Yogyakarta’s cultural diversity. Participants consisted of two undergraduate students from the English Language Education Department and one foreign tourist visiting Yogyakarta. The present study used a qualitative case study where the data were collected through field interviews, direct lecturer observation, video documentation, and student reflection journals, and analyzed using methodological and source triangulation. Findings show that students perceived TBLT as challenging but beneficial, enabling them to apply classroom theory into real communicative practice while building confidence. The activities proved effective in developing fluency, as students were able to sustain natural interaction, employ communication strategies, and reflect positively on their progress. The tourist responded warmly, emphasizing Yogyakarta’s cultural richness, culinary heritage, and hospitality, which fostered intercultural dialogue. The study concludes that TBLT not only promotes linguistic gains but also enhances intercultural competence, with students acting as cultural ambassadors in authentic encounters. Future research is recommended to involve a larger participant base and diverse tourist sites to broaden the scope of findings.

Abstract

ABSTRACT This study explores teachers’ perceptions of Project-Based Learning in English language teaching to promote Higher-Order Thinking Skills. Using a qualitative case study design, the research involved three junior high school teachers in Bogor Regency, selected through purposive sampling. Data was collected via open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Findings showed that teachers viewed project-based learning as a student-centered approach emphasizing real-world relevance, collaboration, product creation, and contextual learning. Implementation included planning, scaffolding, group work, facilitation, and feedback. Teachers reported that project-based learning fostered higher-order thinking skills by encouraging critical analysis, creativity, and reflection, although challenges such as time constraints and diverse student abilities remained. The study underscores the need for teacher readiness, resources, and contextualized instruction to optimize project-based learning in promoting higher-order thinking skills. Keywords: Project-Based Learning, Higher-Order Thinking Skills, Teacher Perception, Case Study
