Translanguaging in which more than one language is allowed to be used in the classroom is currently a trending issue that has been widely claimed to be helping students to foster foreign language learning, including learning English as a foreign language. While research on translanguaging within the EFL settings has been abundant, only a few studies are within the Indonesian context. Thus, it is crucial to investigate how translanguaging is employed within a high school context in Indonesia. Employing a qualitative case study, the study involved four pre-service English teachers who had a teaching practicum at a senior high school. The data were gathered from observing the recorded videos of participants’ teaching practicum teaching practicum as the participants while having a teaching practicum, interviewing them as a follow up of the observation, and open-ended questionnaire. The obtained data were analyzed thematically based on emerging themes. The findings indicate that pre-service teachers translanguage as they teach their students for various reasons, suggesting that translanguaging is important to enhance students' comprehension and to create a less stressful classroom atmosphere.

Professional identity refers to the self-perception that is related to work. Personal professional identity influences behavior and actions in the work environment. A strong impression of professional identity causes individuals to act in accordance with the norms, ethics, and standards of their profession. Professional identity is an inseparable concept in all professions including the teaching profession. Although much research has examined teachers' professional identity, research on prospective teachers who are still in training is still limited. Many researches emphasis identity among qualified teachers with the assumption that they have a more established identity compared to pre-service teachers who are still developing their professional identities. Acknowledging its importance may encourage further research and contribute to a broader understanding of teacher development, which is informed by knowledge of what factors influence professional identity at all levels. Qualitative descriptive approach is employed in this study. The study is conducted on 13 pre-service teachers majoring in English education who have had field teaching experience. The research instruments used are questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and literature research. Then the data is analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate a crucial factor in the establishing of pre-service teachers' professional self-concept, namely the initial motivation when choosing an English education major. Pre-service teachers also expressed an awareness of the role of professional identity in enabling effective professional performance. Additionally, holding positive perspectives about their chosen profession appears to support skills development that provides new perspectives to the preparation of expert teachers

This research explores students' perceptions of the evolving Case-Based “Teaching English as a Foreign Language†(TEFL) Methodology and Team Work to enhance learning outcomes. It investigates the integration of linguistic aspects and their alignment with practical applications. Employing qualitative Didactical Design Research (DDR), the study employs observation sheets, interview guides, and documentation as research tools. DDR introduces 'scientific imagination' and apperception to probe students' understanding of previously learned linguistic concepts. Anticipating diverse student responses, DDR ensures TEFL Methodology learning objectives are met. The study also examines the emerging 'needs analysis' trend, emphasizing student-centered learning's role in fostering didactic creativity and enhancing TEFL Methodology instruction. Cases and Team Work diversify didactic creativity, yielding contextually relevant instructional designs. The research seeks to shift TEFL Methodology learning towards fostering innovative conditions that empower students in reflective, self-directed learning, thereby enhancing TEFL knowledge and practical skills mastery.

The digital lifestyle requires students to read any online discourse more critically. The paper presents the result of a study in which 42 EFL learners are asked to demonstrate their critical reading skills through answers to the questionnaire and test. Both instruments are adapted from Cottrell's (2011). The participants are intermediate EFL learners in Indonesia. They are 19-20 years of age, male and female. All of them enroll the Discourse Analysis course. The result reveals that most of them have a positive attitude and give a positive response to some key questions under the critical thinking skills. They show the ability to identify unfair techniques used in a text and are good at reading between and beyond the lines. They do further research when they are hesitant about something they read and know how to evaluate source material. With some refinements and piloting, future research might be done on other language skills.
