Abstract

This qualitative descriptive case study investigates the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in supporting independent English writing learning at the University of Muhammadiyah Mataram. Sixteen students using AI-based tools, like Grammarly and ChatGPT, were selected via purposive sampling to provide detailed insights. Data were collected through open-ended and closed-ended questionnaires, supplemented by interviews. The findings indicate that AI tools significantly assist in grammar correction, sentence structuring, and idea generation, enhancing learners’ autonomy and confidence in writing. However, challenges such as overreliance, reduced creativity, and diminished originality underscore the importance of integrating AI thoughfully, highlighting the need for balanced integration of AI into learning processes. The study emphasizes developing pedagogical strategies that promote AI as a supplementary resource rather than a primary tool, ensuring students maintain critical thinking and creative expression. Additionally, ethical considerations were discussed, including data privacy and the potential cognitive effects of AI usage. Implications for curriculum design suggest incorporating guided AI usage and reflective writing activities to balance technological support with skill development. Future research should explore adaptive AI systems for personalized feedback and strategies to enhance writing skills without fostering dependency.

Abstract

The Literacy Wheel stands out as a promising tool designed specifically to enhance English language skills. This media not only makes the learning process more engaging but also addresses key linguistic competencies. The Literacy Wheel significantly boosts students’ interest in learning English. Therefore, efforts are needed to assist students in learning English by creating an interactive learning medium called the Literacy Wheel (Rossi) to enhance students' learning motivation. The focus of this study is to analyze the validity and practicality of the developed learning media. The subjects of the study were third-grade students. The method used was Research and Development, employing the ADDIE model. The data used in the study included a preliminary study with interview techniques, validation by subject matter and media experts, and questionnaires to gather teacher and student responses to the learning media. The results showed that 98% of the Literacy Wheel media aligned with the material, and 95% of it was deemed valid for use in learning. The product received positive responses from students, with 79, 30% of them expressing enjoyment of the Literacy Wheel media. Based on these findings, the authors suggest that the content in the Literacy Wheel media be expanded to include more diverse subjects.

Abstract

This qualitative case study, conducted in West Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara, employed the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) to address the persistent issue of cultural disconnect in Indonesia’s standardized reading literacy assessments. The study aimed to develop and evaluate a reading literacy Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA) book that integrates local wisdom and is supported by the Teachmint app as an interactive learning platform. The intervention contextualized assessment materials by incorporating local folklore, customs, and socio-cultural environments into the design of learning content. Validation by experts rated the book as highly feasible (91.2%), with strong positive responses from both teachers (88.5%) and students (85%). Implementation of Teachmint enhanced accessibility, motivation, and engagement through digital features like quizzes, automatic feedback, and interactive discussions. Quantitative findings revealed significant gains in students’ informational text comprehension (30.03%), literary text comprehension (11.92%), and critical analysis skills (35.09%). A comparative study also demonstrated that students assessed through Teachmint outperformed those using conventional platforms like Google Forms. This research highlights the effectiveness of integrating local cultural contexts and educational technology to enhance reading literacy and offers practical insights for developing culturally responsive assessments in Indonesia.

Abstract

Students study at a course is out of their personal will, yet due to coercion of their parents. Demonstrating icebreakers is highly suggested in non-formal education as establishing a pleasurable and refreshing atmosphere is the most critical aspect. This study investigates icebreakers as a method of fostering students' interest in BBC-English Training Specialists in Semarang. The objectives are to examine the role of instructors in fostering students' interest in a course, to examine how instructors adhere to the well-designed outline for implementing icebreaker methods, and to determine the advantages and disadvantages of this method. This study employed a qualitative method by incorporating narrative inquiry into the research design. The data were collected using an open-ended questionnaire, and four senior instructors were interviewed. The result of this study shows that the instructor's role in fostering students' interest is crucial. Meanwhile, the study has proven that implementing icebreakers in line with a well-designed outline successfully fosters students' interest in attending English courses and raises their awareness of the importance of learning English independently, free from parental coercion. There are virtually no disadvantages, hence it is highly suggested that the icebreaker method be used. This study allows instructors to create engaging, interactive, and productive activities according to the students' preferences. This makes it possible to adjust their methods to the unique needs of their students while also keeping up with the rapidly evolving educational landscape.

Abstract

This study explored the use of evaluative language in the speech of investigators and suspects during police interrogations at a district police department in Indonesia. The study aimed to analyze how interpersonal strategies were realized by the police as interrogators and suspects during interrogations. To achieve these objectives, the research applied appraisal theory within the framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) to identify and examine the language of evaluation. The data for the study were derived from conversations between police interrogators and suspects. The analysis involved segmenting the interrogation texts into units of utterances. There were 1320 utterances of 5 suspects analyzed in this study. These utterances were then systematically categorized based on the appraisal system's categories. Specifically, the analysis focused on the appraisal system's engagement dimension, examining the realization of monoglosss and heterogloss. The findings revealed that the expression of engagement was predominantly characterized by heterogloss, primarily conveyed by the interrogator. The findings indicated that during the interrogation process, the police increased control, reduced space for the suspect's perspective, introduced bias in information gathering, and emphasized a clearer power dynamic, which can impact the validity and ethics of the interrogation. The findings contributed to forensic linguistics practice to create opportunities for more cooperative interactions, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of information elicitation.

Abstract

Subtitling has become a vital tool for disseminating ideas and information through online video. This study takes a deep dive into the translation strategies employed in the subtitling of the acclaimed Netflix documentary series “Our Planet.” Drawing on Gottlieb's established theory of translation techniques for subtitling, this research analyses the subtitling approaches within the episodes of the series. The findings reveal that the transfer strategy presenting direct lexical translation is the dominant approach (71%) used by subtitlers. However, the analysis also uncovers nuanced applications of other strategies, such as expansion, paraphrasing, and condensation, which work in tandem to enhance the clarity and naturalness of the target language subtitles. By examining this rich dataset of documentary video subtitles, this study provides valuable insights into the complex decision-making processes of professional subtitlers especially those that is related to cross-cultural comprehensio. The results suggest that while transfer is the primary technique, subtitlers thoughtfully employ a mix of strategies to deliver an optimal viewing experience to multilingual audiences. This study offers a groundbreaking exploration of the intricacies involved in translating educational and informative video content for global distribution.

Abstract

This study investigates the benefits and challenges of implementing scaffolding strategies in research-based project classes at Esa Unggul University. The participants consisted of 37 undergraduate students enrolled in a research class focused on producing academic research articles. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis to explore students' experiences with scaffolding throughout the research project process. The findings revealed that scaffolding enhanced students' critical thinking, time management, academic motivation, and ability to use feedback effectively. Structured support mechanisms—such as critical questioning, phased assignments, and staged feedback—enabled students to engage more deeply with complex research tasks and fostered the development of independent learning skills. However, several challenges emerged, including high cognitive load, unclear scaffolding instructions, difficulty applying feedback, and student overreliance on lecturer   guidance. These results suggest that while scaffolding is a powerful instructional strategy, its effectiveness depends on intentional, flexible, and well-sequenced design that supports both structure and autonomy. This study contributes to instructional design by offering practical insights into how scaffolding can be optimized to meet the diverse needs of learners in higher education research setting.
