Abstract

This study investigates the use of rhyme schemes in students’ poetry writing, focusing on a case study of Phase F, Grade XI students at SMAN 1 Padang. Using a qualitative analysis of student poetry assignments, the research identifies several types of rhyme schemes employed by students, including couplets, alternate rhymes, enclosed rhymes, terza rima, limericks, and free verse. The findings reveal that many students favored couplet and alternate rhyme patterns due to their clear structure and ease of use, while others used free verse to express ideas more intuitively and flexibly. The study highlights that students’ understanding of rhyme schemes goes beyond formal constraints, serving as a foundation for creativity in poetry writing. It emphasizes the importance of teaching rhyme schemes not merely as rigid structures but as expressive tools in literature and language education.  Keywords: Creative Writing; Poetry; Rhyme Scheme

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) on enhancing intercultural competence, digital literacy, and global citizenship among higher education students. Using a narrative literature review supported by the frameworks of social constructivism, transformative learning, and technological determinism, this research synthesizes findings from 22 peer-reviewed studies. The results show that COIL promotes inclusive international learning by enabling cross-cultural collaboration without physical mobility. It also highlights COIL’s potential to democratize access to global education, support the development of 21st-century competencies, and foster reflective, interculturally aware learners. However, challenges such as technological inequality, time zone coordination, and institutional readiness remain significant. The study concludes that with strategic implementation and ongoing support, COIL can evolve into a sustainable and transformative model for global learning in higher education.

Abstract

One of the key elements of the Kurikulum Merdeka is the transformation of traditional lesson plans into teaching modules. However, many teachers face difficulties in compiling these modules effectively. This study aims to analyze teacher-developed instructional modules and identify the challenges encountered during their development. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through documentation analysis and interviews with four English teachers at senior high schools implementing the Kurikulum Merdeka. The findings reveal that several module components were incomplete, poorly described, or misunderstood by teachers, although most criteria outlined in the curriculum were technically fulfilled. Key challenges included unfamiliarity with new module components and terminology, limited insight into students’ prior English proficiency, insufficient training, inadequate reference materials, and a lack of supporting facilities. These obstacles, if persistent, may undermine the curriculum’s effectiveness. This study contributes practical insights by highlighting context-specific implementation barriers, emphasizing the urgent need for sustained teacher training and institutional support to strengthen module development and ensure successful curriculum integration.  Keywords: Teaching module; Teachers’ Challenges; Kurikulum Merdeka

Abstract

In the digital era, online reading integrates text, visuals, and audio, making the Internet a dynamic source of information for learners. This study explores the impact of online reading habits on English language achievement among Indonesian EFL learners. A correlational research design was employed, involving 138 eleventh-grade students selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using a validated and reliable online reading habits questionnaire and English achievement test. The findings reveal a statistically significant correlation between students’ online reading habits and their English scores. While students actively engage in online reading during English learning, the results indicate that frequent exposure to online texts alone does not directly translate into substantial improvement in English achievement. These findings suggest the importance of guiding learners to engage critically with online content to maximize its potential for language development. Keywords: online reading habits; English language achievement; EFL learners; digital reading

Abstract

This study explores the disparity in English language proficiency between local and transmigrant students at STIES Mitra Karya Bekasi through a sociolinguistic lens. A qualitative case study approach was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis to gather comprehensive data. The findings reveal that local students demonstrate stronger English language skills compared to their transmigrant counterparts. This gap is influenced by differences in educational backgrounds, unequal access to learning resources, and psychological factors such as self-confidence. To address these challenges, the study recommends several strategies, including supplementary language classes, peer tutoring programs, contextualized English instruction, public speaking training, and the implementation of inclusive institutional policies. These interventions aim to bridge the language gap and foster a more equitable and supportive academic environment for all students. The study highlights the urgent need for adaptive pedagogical approaches in multilingual and multicultural higher education settings. It contributes significantly to the fields of sociolinguistics and multicultural education policy by offering practical insights into promoting linguistic equity and inclusion in academic institutions. Keywords: English language; proficiency gap; local students; transmigrant students; sociolinguistics; multicultural education

Abstract

English learning requires not only engaging instruction but also meaningful learning experiences. However, some persistent challenges remain, such as a lack of innovative teaching strategies and insufficient opportunities for students to actively use the language. This study aims to develop LearningMu, a web-based English learning platform designed to transform teacher-centered instruction into student-centered learning. The platform also aims to improve students’ interest, engagement, and language proficiency through an enjoyable and contextualized learning process. This research adopts a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, although it is currently limited to the trial stage. The trial was conducted through feasibility testing, involving both validation and practicality assessments, carried out at SMA Muhammadiyah Belitung. Data were collected through interviews, document analysis, and questionnaires, and analyzed using a quantitative descriptive approach by comparing the outcomes to existing feasibility standards. The results show that LearningMu achieved a validity score of 4.05 and a practicality score of 3.72 (on a 5-point scale), indicating that the product is both valid and practical for classroom implementation. Although the initial results are promising, further development and refinement are still needed to maximize the effectiveness of LearningMu and enhance its applicability in broader educational settings.
