Abstract

The ability to speak English is very important, but it will not be successful without being supported by the ability to listen to understand the verbal language. The poor listening skills of the English Education students at Tadulako University in the final exam of the Listening for General Communication course became the basis for conducting this study. The results of the test showed that around 80% students failed the course with percentage intervals of comprehension levels of 0-39%. Therefore, this study is carried out to specify if using Cognitive-Strategy Based Method and Metacognitive-Strategy Based Method is effective in improving the participants’ listening comprehension as well as to compare the effectiveness of the two strategies. This study applied experimental design involving 80 samples evenly distributed in two classes. One class was instructed using Cognitive strategy, while the other one was taught using Metacognitive strategy. Results of data analysis demonstrated that both the Cognitive and Metacognitive strategies effectively improve the participants’ listening comprehension. There is no significant difference in terms of the effectiveness of both strategies in improving listening skills of the participants. In practice, they support each other resulting in learners better listening comprehension.

Abstract

Literary works based on Dongbei (China’s Northeast) or composed by Dongbei-born writers have been playing a preponderant role in modern Chinese literature. There is a recent resurgence of Dongbei-born writers who are collectively referred to as ‘neo-Dongbei writers’, exemplified by ‘three icons of Dongbei Renaissance’, aka ‘three swordsmen in the Tiexi District’. Notwithstanding reality-oriented depictions pertaining to social issues such as redundancy and dipsomania, fiction composed by Ban Yu, Zheng Zhi and Shuang Xuetao bears resemblance to Cthulhu Mythos. To be more specific, the three leading neo-Dongbei writers portray preternatural creatures, and their narratives convey fear of the unknown and nameless approximations of form.

Abstract

Previous studies had shown that morphological awareness has an important role in the development of English ESP students' reading skills. However, there is still a gap in studies that specifically focus on the experiences of students in learning English through reading in various educational contexts, especially in traditional Islamic boarding schools. Therefore, this study aims to investigate (1) Students’ experience in learning English through reading in traditional Islamic boarding Schools, (2) the role of morphological awareness in learning to read, and (3) Impact of Morphological awareness on English reading ability. This research is a narrative inquiry study that aims to explore the experiences of three students from traditional Islamic boarding schools who took an English program where their morphological awareness background having an effect on learning English through reading. To collect data researchers use semi-structured interviews. Then, the data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The results of this study indicate that their morphological awareness plays an important role in their journey of learning English through reading, as indicated by their understanding of word forms, functions and structures. By integrating morphological awareness into language education, educators can enhance vocabulary development, improve reading comprehension, foster cross-linguistic transfer, and support language interrelations.

Abstract

During the achievement of the target language, interlanguage becomes a serious issue in second language acquisition (SLA). The influence of the student’s mother tongue both on vocabulary and structure plays an essential role, particularly in oral performance. This qualitative study aims to find out the interlanguage fossilization as well as the digital media used to overcome the interlanguage. In this study, 23 non-English department students participated by videotaping their speaking performance spontaneously for about two minutes. Each student submitted a video on the subject of “My Childhood” via google classroom at the end of the English program. Not only the documentation but also the interview is employed; five of the students took part in it. Additionally, the students’ strategies to be proficient in English were expressed. The findings indicated the syntactical errors in pronouns errors, articles, concords, and fragments and the morpheme errors in suffixes. Meanwhile, learning English videos integrated with technology such as YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram promotes the students’ strategies to boost their speaking skills.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of cultural awareness, language learning environment, and cultural barriers on students' foreign language speaking ability. Involving 80 English language students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Muara Bungo, this study used a quantitative method by purposively selecting a sample of 56 students based on specific criteria, including English comprehension and cultural awareness. A Likert-scale questionnaire was used as the research instrument, distributed through Google Forms, and the results were analysed using descriptive statistics (SPSS). The results showed that cultural awareness is important in improving speaking ability, and students who better understand cultural values and norms communicate more effectively. A conducive learning environment, supported by social interaction and experiential teaching methods, strengthens students' speaking skills. However, cultural barriers such as anxiety about cultural mistakes and misunderstanding of communication norms remain challenges that must be overcome through cultural sensitivity training and inclusive learning. The uniqueness of this study lies in its multidisciplinary approach, which combines aspects of psychology, education, and cultural anthropology to understand the complex interactions between culture and students' speaking ability in the context of foreign language learning. Therefore, this research can potentially contribute to developing more effective and sustainable language learning strategies in the era of cross-cultural communication.

Abstract

Previous studies on engagement have a primary focus on textual discourse or written communication analysis rather than on interactive, spoken communication. This leaves a room for further exploration into how engagement functions dynamically, such as in debates. This study aims to find out the engagement strategies used in the USU English Debate Forum 2023 through the lens of Martin and White’s (2005) appraisal theory of engagement. Using a qualitative content analysis, this study categorizes debate discourse into monoglossic and heteroglossic engagement systems to analyze how the debaters construct meaning, position themselves in relation to their audience, and employ linguistic features to sustain engagement. The data were collected using observation and documentation methods and were analyzed using an interactive model of data analysis. The findings indicate that heteroglossic engagement overwhelmingly dominates the debate discourse, accounting for 83.3% of the engagement strategies used. Among the heteroglossic features, dialogic contraction strategies such as Deny (21.17%) and Counter (16.47%) were frequently employed, highlighting the competitive nature of debate discourse. Dialogic expansion, particularly Entertainment (32.94%), also played a significant role, allowing the debaters to introduce assessments of probability and possibility. The results suggest that the debaters strategically navigate linguistic resources to challenge opposing arguments, reinforce their stance, and engage with alternative perspectives. This study contributes to the understanding of engagement strategies in academic debates, offering implications for debate training and rhetorical education.
