Abstract

Choosing an acceptable textbook is not a simple task since it may be a key component in most language program. It serves as language input and language practice for learners. It also provides the premise for content lesson, the variety of language practice for learner, and serves as a supplement for teacher’s instruction. Teaching and learning a language without knowing its culture are useless. Culture should be taught to the students so as to dig deeper their language potential in learning English. Therefore, a textbook which is often utilized by teachers as a medium to show and help them within the process of teaching and learning should have a significant part in disseminating cultures. Culture is split into three categories: source culture, target culture, and international target culture. Some problems arise whether to keep up the source culture because the dominant part or to clarify more about the target culture. Also, the ignorance of cultural teaching commonly happens in language classroom. Thus, this paper will evaluate and explore how important cultural literacy in EFL teaching is and discuss which culture should be taught in EFL.

To discover how reflective practice promotes teacher professional development, the researchers analyzed several research journal articles using a document analysis method. The current contributions of reflective practice present the significance of reflective practice. It involves why and how English teachers should employ the reflective practice in their daily teaching processes. This study provides future research direction as well, specifically on how to equip teachers to become reflective practitioners in their teaching practices, how to provide a supportive environment for reflective practitioners, and how to enhance the implementation of reflective practice through online platforms.

Abstract

This paper carries on a tentative interpersonal metafunctional analysis of the interpersonal metafunction online news headlines about COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis involved the differences in the mood type distribution, polarity, modality and other lexical characteristics. The findings reveal the dominance of the declarative mood texts tells the particular function of the online news headlines. It's informing the readers, rather than questioning or demanding them. Positive declarative clauses should convey information and convince readers with positive facts. A negative polarity does not imply a negative impression but confirms that a certain issue is inconsistent with what has become apparent. The use of “must” indicates that the speaker has a firm and strong conviction about a particular issue and that the readers are obliged to take the necessary steps in connection with what is believed. Word choices and the clause structure reflect the context of the texts and not the mood adjuncts or the modal verbal operators. Analysis of the functional structural mood text is very useful for understanding the interpersonal relationships between participants.

Abstract

The role of teaching materials in ELT has usually been a controversial issue in terms of what type of materials teachers should use and how important these materials are to language teaching and learning. This controversy got heated by the advent of calls for material-light classrooms and using teachers and learners as resources to liberate ELT from the ‘tyranny’ of course books. Nevertheless, these calls remain to carry a relatively little weight in mainstream ESL/EFL teacher education circles. They are communicated to teachers and educators, mainly through professional development arenas. Since we know very little about what attitudes teachers hold to these calls, we cannot assess their magnitude and influence. This article investigates Egyptian EFL teachers' beliefs pertaining to the tenets of Dogme (i.e., an approach that advocates material-free English language teaching) in relation to teachers' gender, years of experience, and the age group they teach, intending to explore the variable(s) that may influence beliefs about Dogme. Data were collected from 70 Egyptian EFL teachers using a questionnaire. Quantitative analysis of data revealed that generally, there is no significant relationship between teachers' beliefs about Dogme and the variables mentioned above.

Abstract

Its huge potential to facilitate learning has made information and communication technology (ICT) use grow as one of the main advancements in the education sector in the 21st Century. This study aims at exploring secondary school students’ perceptions of ICT use in the EFL classroom. To achieve the objective, 197 students in 15 secondary schools located in Jakarta, Depok, and Bekasi were surveyed using a questionnaire. The data obtained were analyzed employing the descriptive analysis technique. The results showed that the participants’ perception was positive and high in some dimensions of ICT use in learning but low in one dimension. Positive and high perceptions were found in (1) the potentials of ICT use to increase learning interest and motivation; (2) the impacts of ICT use in learning; (3) ICT educational values; and (4) ICT use self-efficacy. It was also found that the participants used ICT more frequently for entertainment and socio-economic purposes than for learning activities. Finally, a majority of the participants thought taking formal ICT training to enable them to effectively use ICT in learning is not necessary.
