Abstract

Indonesian students continue to face difficulties in mathematics, as reflected in their low PISA performance. Besides cognitive mastery, non-cognitive factors such as Subjective Well-Being (SWB) and learning motivation also play an important role in shaping students’ academic outcomes. However, previous findings regarding the influence of SWB on achievement have been inconsistent, suggesting the need to examine it alongside other psychological factors. This study investigates the influence of SWB and learning motivation on the mathematics learning outcomes of 10th-grade students at SMA Negeri 11 Samarinda. A quantitative causal-comparative design was used with three randomly selected classes as the sample. SWB and learning motivation data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire, while mathematics outcomes were obtained from students’ report cards. The data were analyzed using truncated spline nonparametric regression. The results indicate that both SWB and learning motivation significantly affect mathematics learning outcomes, individually and simultaneously. These findings highlight the importance of supporting students’ psychological well-being and motivation to enhance mathematics achievement at the senior high school level

Abstract

This paper focuses on revealing the challenges in English communication of UNNES 7th semester students during the International Community Service Program, as well bridging unexpected cultural gaps in communication, analyzed beyond the classroom-based context to extends existing discussion on communication competence. This paper adopts a qualitative descriptive approach, with 7 participants involved. Data collection was initially conducted with an open-ended questionnaire, followed by participants being invited back for a semi-structured interview. The findings revealed the main communication challenges faced by participants, such as limited knowledge of English vocabulary, and the challenge of understanding the English accent of Malaysians. However, several strategies in overcoming communication challenges were implemented, including the use of fillers, appeal for help strategy, applying code-switching, and the use of body gesture strategy. This paper presents opinions and experiences of the participants involved, highlighting the challenges of English communication in international scope and the strategies applied. In addition, this paper suggests the necessity of exposure to English learning in real-life contexts, such as involved in international standard programs to enhance long-term communication skills

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of English songs in enhancing vocabulary mastery among university-level EFL students and explores their perceptions of song-based learning. Employing a mixed-methods design, quantitative data were collected through pre-test and post-test vocabulary assessments, while qualitative data were obtained via semi-structured interviews. Participants were 23 English Education students at Muhammadiyah University of East Kalimantan selected through purposive sampling. Quantitative analysis using a paired-sample t-test revealed a statistically significant improvement in students’ vocabulary mastery after the intervention (p < .001), indicating a strong instructional effect. Beyond score improvement, the findings revealed that students demonstrated increased ability to infer word meanings from context and greater retention of newly learned vocabulary. Qualitative findings further supported the quantitative results, showing that English songs enhanced students’ motivation, engagement, and confidence in using new vocabulary, as well as improving their pronunciation awareness and listening comprehension. Nevertheless, students reported challenges related to fast song tempo and unfamiliar accents, which occasionally hindered comprehension. Overall, the findings suggest that English songs function not only as an effective tool for improving vocabulary mastery but also as a meaningful pedagogical medium that promotes contextual learning, learner engagement, and positive learning experiences in higher education EFL contexts.
