Abstract

This study investigates out-of-Java students’ perceptions of their self-efficacy in English-speaking skills. To figure out their perceptions, the researchers formulated two research questions: (1) To what extent do out-of-Java students’ educational backgrounds impact their perceptions of self-efficacy in English speaking skills? (2) How do students cope with the challenges of speaking English? Participants in this study were the third-semester students from English Language Education Study Program. Written reflections and semi-structured interviews were chosen as the primary data collection methods. In analyzing the data, Thematic Analysis was employed in this study. The researchers described the participants’ self-reflections and transcribed their interviews. This study revealed two important results. First, there was an influence of participants' educational backgrounds on their perception of self-efficacy in English-speaking skills. Second, the participants had their strategies in overcoming the difficulties that they experienced in speaking. The results of the study showed that out-of-Java students have high self-efficacy beliefs which increase with their time at university and can improve their English-speaking skills by applying some learning strategies.

Abstract

Making mistakes is a typical occurrence for language learners, and it is also a necessary component of the learning process, especially in learning English as a foreign language. Mistakes or errors that often occur if not immediately corrected will affect their communication and focus in learning English. Error correction is still debated whether what kind of error should be corrected and who has more right to give oral corrective feedback (OCF). Therefore, this study aims to investigate students' beliefs about the target and source of oral corrective feedback (OCF). This study used a quantitative method with 226 students from public senior high school as respondents in the study. This study used an instrument called Students beliefs about target and sources of OCF developed by Ha and Nguyen (2021). There were 17 items which were divided into 2 aspects (i.e., target and sources). The data were then analyzed by using SPSS and Microsoft Excel. In conclusion, Students believed that all forms of errors, particularly those affecting communication, should be corrected. However, they also emphasized that mistakes should be corrected even if they did not interfere with communication or the lesson. Moreover, This study also discovered that students wished their teachers had provided them an opportunity to practice offering feedback to each other and to encourage self-correction because it was beneficial. The result showed that students were positive in receiving all kinds of errors to be corrected and show that the teacher is not the only one who can provide feedback to them.

The findings showed that the students tend to have positive perceptions of AI-based applications. The students think that AI-based applications are innovative and helpful for improving learning English skills. However, lecturers tend to have negative perceptions in a few statements regarding AI-based applications in post-pandemic learning. The lecturers think that the implementation of AI-based applications must still take into consideration student motivation, pedagogical competence, and technological competency. Through this study, the lecturer will get information to design effective and efficient learning objectives using AI-based applications and the students could learn how to improve their English language learning skills.

Abstract

A lot of habituations are needed to get students accustomed to communicating using a foreign language. One of the habits that schools can hold is through outside classroom program, such as English Day program by SMK Putra Indonesia Malang, held weekly to create an English environment for students to develop their speaking skills. However, in practice, students’ willingness to communicate (WTC) was considered low based on the initial observations conducted by one of the researchers. The present study aimed to investigate the factors contributing to WTC during the English Day program. Using a case study through interview and observations, the participants were eight tenth grade students of Industrial Chemical and Industrial Pharmacy classes represented by high and low achievers. The results showed that there were five factors influence their WTC during the English Day Program, including their surroundings, being afraid of committing grammatical mistakes, lack of vocabulary knowledge, lack of pronunciation mastery, and shyness. Thus, English teachers are recommended to encourage students to speak more through fun learning activities in the classroom. Moreover, further researchers are suggested to conduct research on a wider sample to know the main factor contributing to low WTC during the English Day program.

Abstract

Despite its importance, it should be noted that teaching literature, especially in an EFL setting, can be challenging. Numerous studies have been conducted to examine various literature on teaching methods for EFL students. The strategies used in the research, however, heavily rely on teachers' attempts to spoon-feed students' understanding. Thus, in this research, the writers aim to study students’ perceptions of using infographics in studying intrinsic elements in Shakespeare’s drama. This study adopts the mixed-method approach. The participants of this study are 71 students from the second semester consisting of 41 females, and 30 males majoring in English Language and Literature (BBI) at UBM University. The result of the questionnaire was analyzed by using SPSS. In addition to processing the questionnaire results, the writers also conduct a semi-structured interview to gather additional perspectives and in-depth insights about the usage of infographics to improve students' comprehension of Shakespeare's play. This study concludes that participants were eager to learn fundamental aspects of Shakespeare's drama through infographics. Students' short attention spans and Shakespeare's difficult language can both be overcome with the use of infographics.

Abstract

The need for education is increasing and getting more complex along the time for it is a crucial need to prepare better human resources. Currently, higher education is attended by adult learners who are not only study but also work in the industry since the competition in the workplace is getting harder in this globalization era which implicitly requires English proficiency of the workers. Those who work while study must have a motivation either intrinsic or extrinsic to pursue higher education. Thus, this study aims to investigate the effect of academic motivation on RPL program students’ English proficiency test score. This study employed a descriptive quantitative method involving 27 RPL program students majoring in Pharmacy. Data obtained from the Academic Motivation Scale and students’ TOEIC scores were analyzed quantitatively using simple linear regression technique with the help of SPSS 22.0. This study found that even though the data were normal and linear, academic motivation had no effect on the students’ English proficiency test scores. This might happen because there are way more complex factors that influence academic achievement or academic performance in the results of English proficiency test.
