Abstract

This research aims to analyze the use of the language of instruction in English language teaching at SMA Negeri 5 Mandau, as well as students' perceptions of the use of the language of instruction. This research used a descriptive qualitative method approach and involved three teachers and fifteen grade XI students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman flow model. The findings showed that the language of instruction most often used by teachers was mixed language (English and Indonesian) to facilitate students' understanding of the material taught.  Students supported using mixed language because it helped them understand the material better, enriched vocabulary, created a more comfortable learning atmosphere, and reduced anxiety in the learning process. In addition, over-reliance on the mother tongue could hinder the development of students' English language skills. In conclusion, a balanced use of mixed language could improve the effectiveness of English language teaching while accelerating students' language acquisition.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Prediction Strategy on the reading comprehension of 40 students at one of Tahfizh Islamic Boarding School in Palembang. Using a nonequivalent group pretest-posttest design, the study used a quasi-experimental design. The Prediction Strategy was taught to the experimental group, and the lecture method was taught to the control group. Multiple-choice questions from pretests and posttests were used to gather the data. The results showed that after learning the Prediction Strategy, the experimental group's reading comprehension greatly increased. The experimental group's mean score skyrocketed from 71.25 to 83.00, whereas the control group's score grew from 75.38 to 80.12. The experimental group's improvement was statistically significant, according to the paired sample t-test (p-value = 0.000). However, the independent sample t-test revealed no significant difference between the two groups' posttest results (p-value = 0.469). The findings demonstrated that the Prediction Strategy helped students. The results showed that the Prediction Strategy was helpful in improving students' reading comprehension skills. As an alternative to teaching reading comprehension, the Prediction Strategy is advised.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of cultural factors on reading anxiety among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students, focusing on how unfamiliar cultural contexts and linguistic challenges contribute to anxiety levels. Reading is a fundamental skill essential for knowledge acquisition and cognitive development; however, many EFL students experience significant anxiety when engaging with texts in a foreign language. The research involved qualitative analysis through interviews with sixth-semester English education students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar. Findings reveal that while familiar cultural themes, such as batik, can enhance engagement, unfamiliar vocabulary and cultural references often induce anxiety. Most participants expressed a need for additional time and support when encountering texts with unfamiliar cultural elements, particularly regarding the symbolism of motifs like "parang" and "kawung." The results indicate that cultural unfamiliarity significantly contributes to reading anxiety, as students struggle to comprehend texts that require background knowledge of the culture. This study underscores the importance of addressing cultural factors in EFL education to mitigate reading anxiety and improve comprehension, suggesting that increased exposure to cultural contexts may enhance students' reading experiences and reduce anxiety levels.

Abstract

In the context of online learning increasingly adopted by an Indonesian higher education institution, students must adapt to new modes of instruction, which may lead to anxiety, particularly in EFL writing through online discussion forums. This study aims to identify and describe the types, levels, and contributing factors of writing anxiety, as well as how students manage their anxiety in online discussion settings. A mixed-methods approach with a concurrent triangulation design was used to understand the phenomenon. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews with twenty-five first-semester master's students in the English Education Study Program at a private university in Jakarta.The findings revealed that most students experienced moderate anxiety, with cognitive anxiety being the most prevalent type. Contributing factors included linguistic difficulties, fear of negative comments, and time pressure. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of supportive instructional strategies and self-regulation in reducing writing anxiety among EFL learners in digital contexts.

Abstract

The advancement of technology has transformed education, providing opportunities for innovative learning methods. This study aims to develop an Android-based mobile application to support the learning of procedure texts for Grade X students at MA Assa’adah, aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum. Current teaching practices still rely on conventional methods, such as textbooks and manual translation using Google Translate. These approaches often limit vocabulary development and hinder students from achieving the expected competency standards (KKM). To address these challenges, the proposed application integrates procedure text materials with multimedia features, including images and audio, to enhance interactivity, engagement, and motivation in learning. The research employs the Research and Development (R&D) approach, following the PLOMP model. Data were gathered through questionnaires administered to students and interviews with the teacher. The findings indicate that the developed mobile application serves as an innovative and accessible tool, improving students’ comprehension of procedure texts and supporting English language learning. Teacher observations confirmed increased student motivation and participation during lessons.
