Becoming a part of an English village as a form of immersion program differs significantly from studying English in a classroom setting where students can directly practice speaking in real-life situations. This study looks at how Indonesian students perceive the benefits of intense classes in an English Immersion Program on their cognitive development both during and after the program. The biggest Indonesian English Village, Kampung Inggris Pare, was the location. This qualitative case study involving participant observation, interviews, and photos included 14 participants. An interactive analytic model was then used to gather, reduce, present, and make conclusions from the data. According to the study, most participants improved after taking intense English classes in Kampung Inggris Pare, especially in the cognitive areas. Vocabulary was the area where they felt most Heavily Upgraded (HUg), followed by fluency and pronunciation. This study suggests that an immersion program like English Village is one way to address several issues with English learning in schools. An English Immersion Program's intense sessions might be advantageous for students.

During the process of writing an essay, many students are utilizing online translation tools like Google Translate due to the widespread availability of computing technology and the internet. Online translation programming is strong, yet it is inclined to over-exacting interpretation, and cannot represent the setting similar to a human interpreter. As a result, students are left to rely on a tool that promises to "do the hard work" for them by allowing them to only think and write in their native language. This study is aimed to determine the extent to which students at the University of Bengkulu, Indonesia, rely on technology in writing essays and whether they consider its use to be cheating or not. The data was obtained by conducting mixed-method research through survey with a closed-ended questionnaire and interview to the English Department students of Universitas Bengkulu who are currently taking a Critical Writing course. The results discovered that all of the participants have utilized GT as a translation tool for writing essays particularly to translate word from their first language into English. Moreover, they considered using GT for essay writing as cheating depending on how it is used; for graded assignments or writing test.
