Abstract

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has become a crucial component in tourism higher education as the industry increasingly demands graduates who are communicatively competent, professionally confident, and interculturally aware. This article aims to provide a descriptive analysis of current trends, identify key gaps, and propose future directions in ESP curriculum design within tourism higher education. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study synthesizes relevant literature on ESP, tourism education, and curriculum development to map prevailing pedagogical practices and conceptual challenges. The findings indicate that contemporary ESP tourism curricula have shown a positive movement toward speaking-oriented, task-based, and performance-driven instruction that reflects the needs of workplace communication. However, significant gaps persist between students’ linguistic competence and their readiness to perform professional communication in authentic tourism contexts. These gaps are primarily attributed to the limited integration of industry-based service scenarios, psychological readiness factors such as confidence and willingness to communicate, and the development of intercultural competence. The discussion highlights the need to reconceptualize ESP tourism not merely as linguistic pedagogy, but as professional communication pedagogy that emphasizes service-oriented discourse, authentic tasks, and learner readiness. This article concludes that a holistic ESP tourism curriculum, integrating linguistic, psychological, cultural, and professional dimensions, is essential to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world tourism communication. The study offers conceptual implications for curriculum designers and educators and recommends future empirical research across diverse local and global tourism contexts to further validate and refine ESP tourism curriculum models.

Abstract

Construction projects often face challenges in the form of delays and cost overruns due to discrepancies between plans and actual implementation. The Dormitory Building at Airlangga University Campus C in Surabaya was selected as a case study to comprehensively evaluate project performance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate time and cost performance using the Earned Value Management (EVM) method to provide an accurate picture of the deviations that occur and as a basis for project control recommendations. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with secondary data in the form of weekly progress reports, basic schedules, and project financial records. The analysis was conducted through the calculation of EVM indicators, which included Planned Value (PV), Earned Value (EV), Actual Cost (AC), Cost Performance Index (CPI), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), and Estimate at Completion (EAC). The results show that the project experienced delays with an average Schedule Performance Index (SPI) value of 0.92, or approximately 8% behind schedule, while the average Cost Performance Index (CPI) value of 1.05 indicates cost efficiency of 5% compared to the initial budget. The Estimated Cost at Completion (EAC) projects a completion cost of IDR 94.8 billion, which is lower than the contract value of IDR 95.6 billion. Therefore, the project is still under control in terms of cost but requires accelerated work to meet deadlines, while the application of EVM has proven to be effective as an early warning tool and a basis for decision-making in construction project management.

Abstract

Grammar mastery plays a significant role in helping learners produce clear and fluent spoken English. This study explored the correlation between grammar mastery and basic English speaking skills among beginners at AGNES English Course in Kediri. Although these learners frequently encounter English through games, music, and social media, many learners still experience difficulties in speaking confidently, especially in formal situations. Limited grammar mastery can contribute to unclear or fragmented speech, making communication less effective and reducing students’ confidence. Using a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design, this study involved 30 beginners who were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a grammar test and a speaking task, and were analyzed using Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation to examine whether grammar mastery was related to speaking skills. The study aimed to provide practical insights into how grammar supports clear and fluent speaking. The results showed a moderate and statistically significant positive correlation between grammar mastery and basic English speaking skills (r = 0.537, p < .01), indicating that learners with higher grammar mastery tended to demonstrate better speaking performance. These findings suggest that grammar mastery plays an important role in supporting beginners’ speaking development. Therefore, integrating grammar instruction into speaking activities is recommended to help learners speak more clearly and confidently in both informal and formal situations.

Abstract

The rapid development of technology is given a big impact to all aspects in human life nowadays. This study explores whether English proficiency serves as a bridge or a barrier to job opportunities in the digital era, a period in which global communication and technology-driven workplaces increasingly demand strong language skills. Using a qualitative literature review approach, relevant studies from Indonesia, Pakistan, Malaysia, and India were systematically selected and analyzed through content analysis to identify patterns, themes, and contrasts. The findings show that English proficiency significantly enhances employability, supports career advancement, and enables participation in international and digital work environments, highlighting its role as a bridge to global opportunities. However, the results also reveal that limited English competence often caused by insufficient training and outdated instructional practices can hinder job seekers’ competitiveness and restrict access to digital era professions, thus becoming a barrier. In short, it can be concluded that English proficiency is a decisive factor in determining individuals’ success in the digital workforce, emphasizing the need for modern, technology-supported, and industry-aligned English training to ensure equitable access to emerging job opportunities.

Abstract

Students with mild intellectual disabilities (MID) face significant challenges in English vocabulary acquisition due to delayed language development, limited working memory, and short attention spans, and traditional teaching strategies were often ineffective. Despite the potential of gamified digital media, there was limited research exploring the role of tools like Wordwall in supporting vocabulary instruction specifically for these learners. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the role of Wordwall in supporting English vocabulary learning for students with MID. This research employed a qualitative case study design. Using purposive sampling, data were collected through triangulation (classroom observation and semi-structured interview with three students and the English teacher) in one special-needs class in Semarang. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that Wordwall facilitated students’ engagement and participation in vocabulary learning, supported vocabulary retention, active participation driven by Wordwall activities, practicality and flexibility of Wordwall perceived by teacher,  and created a more interactive and enjoyable classroom environment for students with MID. This study contributed to inclusive digital pedagogy by showing how Wordwall as gamified tools can support vocabulary learning for students with MID.

Abstract

AbstrakPenguasaan struktur kalimat bahasa Inggris sangat mendasar namun menantang bagi pembelajar EFL, membentuk dasar untuk komunikasi yang efektif dan keberhasilan akademis. Di sekolah berasrama Islam di Indonesia, siswa yang harus menyeimbangkan studi agama intensif dan akademis seringkali memiliki latihan tata bahasa yang terbatas, sehingga memperparah kesulitan dalam penyusunan kalimat. Meskipun ChatGPT menunjukkan potensi sebagai alat pedagogis dalam konteks EFL, penelitian sebelumnya sebagian besar telah meneliti mahasiswa atau intervensi jangka panjang, sehingga menyisakan kesenjangan mengenai dampaknya dalam program intensif jangka pendek untuk siswa SMA di lingkungan sekolah berasrama. Studi ini menilai efektivitas ChatGPT dalam meningkatkan kompetensi struktur kalimat pembelajar EFL. Dengan mengadopsi desain pretest-posttest satu kelompok, 14 siswa laki-laki kelas sepuluh di sekolah berasrama Islam, Indonesia, menyelesaikan intervensi selama dua minggu berupa sesi harian 60 menit yang dibantu ChatGPT tentang penyusunan kalimat simple present tense, yang mencakup latihan terbimbing dan umpan balik langsung. Kompetensi struktur kalimat dievaluasi menggunakan tes tata bahasa pilihan ganda 15 item yang dikembangkan oleh peneliti, yang diberikan sebelum dan sesudah intervensi. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan yang signifikan secara statistik, dengan skor rata-rata meningkat dari 68,43 (SD = 25,922) pada pretest menjadi 90,43 (SD = 6,418) pada posttest (perbedaan rata-rata = 22; t(13) = 3,297, p = 0,006). Uji Shapiro-Wilk mengkonfirmasi normalitas, dan ukuran efek yang besar menggarisbawahi signifikansi praktis yang substansial. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa intervensi ChatGPT yang singkat dan intensif pun dapat secara substansial meningkatkan kompetensi struktur kalimat pembelajar EFL. ChatGPT terbukti sebagai alat yang praktis, efisien waktu, dan menarik untuk pengajaran tata bahasa dalam konteks sekolah berasrama di Indonesia. Guru EFL disarankan untuk memasukkan aktivitas ChatGPT terstruktur ke dalam pelajaran harian untuk mendorong pembelajaran individual dan mengurangi beban kerja guru. Keterbatasan dan arah penelitian masa depan dibahas.

Abstract

Severe floods in the Sumatra region have had profound social and educational impacts, especially for school-age children who have lost access to the learning process due to infrastructure damage, family relocation, and psychological trauma. Education as a fundamental right of children needs to be guaranteed to continue even in emergency conditions. This study aims to analyze the conditions of access to education for children affected by floods, the form of adaptation of the learning system implemented in the affected areas, and the role of social rehabilitation in supporting the recovery of education and the welfare of children after the disaster. This study employs a descriptive, qualitative approach using a phenomenological method, focusing on the social and educational experiences of flood victims in Agam Regency, West Sumatra. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews, participatory observations, and documentation studies of teachers, parents, social volunteers, and children of disaster victims. Data analysis was conducted using a thematic analysis approach, focusing on central themes such as access to education, learning adaptation, and social rehabilitation support. The results show that children's access to education remains limited due to damage to school facilities and the relocation of residents; however, local initiatives, such as emergency schools and child-friendly spaces, have emerged to protect the right to learn. Adaptation of empathy-based learning and social activities helps students recover emotionally. Social rehabilitation plays a vital role in rebuilding learning motivation, strengthening community collaboration, and creating a humanistic and inclusive emergency education system. This study emphasizes that integrating education, psychosocial, and social rehabilitation is key to sustainable post-disaster recovery and the development of resilience education in Indonesia

Abstract

Alterations in the oral microbiota of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients, particularly those receiving mechanical ventilation, may increase the risk of Candida albicans colonization. Oral antiseptics such as chlorhexidine gluconate and povidone-iodine are commonly used; however, evidence regarding their antifungal efficacy remains limited. This study aimed to compare the in vitro antifungal efficacy of 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate and 1% povidone-iodine against Candida albicans.This laboratory experimental study used a post-test-only control group design. Antifungal activity was evaluated using the Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion method on a standardized Candida albicans suspension (0.5 McFarland; 1×10⁸ CFU/mL). Inhibition zone diameters were measured after 24 hours of incubation at 37°C. Isolates were identified using standard microbiological methods and MALDI-TOF MS. Data were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney test after non-normality was confirmed by the Shapiro–Wilk test.The results showed that 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate produced a median inhibition zone diameter of 20 mm (19–20 mm), which was significantly greater than that of 1% povidone-iodine (11 mm [10–11 mm]). The difference between the two treatment groups was statistically significant (p < 0.001).In conclusion, 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate was more effective than 1% povidone-iodine in inhibiting the growth of Candida albicans in vitro.
