Abstract

Language learning, particularly vocabulary development, is crucial in mastering English as a foreign language. However, teaching vocabulary effectively can be challenging, and traditional methods like memorization may not always be engaging for students. The study aims to explore the impact of using popular online games, such as Mobile Legends, PUBG Mobile, League of Legends, and Minecraft on students' vocabulary mastery. A qualitative research design was employed, involving structured interviews and focus group discussions with eight students from a senior high school in Jakarta. The findings revealed that online games provided an immersive and enjoyable environment for vocabulary enrichment, offering both direct and indirect opportunities to encounter new words and phrases. The study demonstrated that online games could positively influence students' motivation and interest in learning English vocabulary, resulting in improvements in their language skills. It is then suggested that students should practice using English by utilizing online games relevant to the promotion of their English vocabulary mastery.

Abstract

Speaking demands self-confidence and composure when dealing with other people. Furthermore, communicating in English is a big barrier for many students due to self-efficacy, anxiety, and emotional intelligence. This study examined direct and indirect variable contributions. This path analysis study used multiple regression and mediated model. This study involved 128 of the tenth graders students at SMA Senopati, Sidoarjo. To collect the data, the instruments used a closed-ended questionnaire about self-efficacy, anxiety, emotional intelligence and speaking test. This study yielded seven conclusions. First, self-efficacy had a weak effect on speaking performance (estimate =.128, p-value.000). The estimate value of.506, p-value.001, showed that self-efficacy contributes significantly to emotional intelligence. Anxiety's contribution to emotional intelligence was minimal (estimate value -.397, p-value.005). The fourth finding showed that anxiety directly affects speaking performance (estimate value -.069), p-value.000. The fifth finding showed that emotional intelligence had a weak effect on speaking performance (estimate value.034, p-value.004). Significant indirect influence of self-efficacy through emotional intelligence on speaking performance (Sobel test=2.1220>1.96, p-value 0.033<.05). Anxiety indirectly affects speaking performance through emotional intelligence (Sobel test=-.2.0043>1.96, p-value 0.045<.05).

Abstract

Understanding speech act production in EFL classroom interactions is crucial for enhancing teaching effectiveness and student engagement, as it sheds light on how language is used to convey meaning and manage social interactions in the learning environment. The purpose of this study was to analyze the speech act types and functions that were used by an EFL teacher and their students during classroom interactions. Observational data was collected and analyzed according to Conversation Analysis standards (CA). The findings of the study revealed that the types of speech acts produced by the teacher and students were influenced by their respective roles and statuses. Although the students produced fewer speech acts, they served the same functions as the teacher's speech acts in terms of controlling and managing classroom interactions. As a result, the speech acts of both the students and teacher distributed authority in different ways during turn-taking and commodity exchanges. The practical knowledge and pedagogical use of the teacher-student relationship as a unique social event in the classroom context has the potential to effectively manage classroom interactions.

Abstract

Communication on social media is not only limited to linguistic elements, but also involves images and visuals.

This research aims to explore the linguistic and multimodal elements of Mother's Day commemorative posts on President Jokowi's Instagram account. This research used a qualitative descriptive method and a multimodal pragmatic approach. The research data is in the form of captions as a linguistic aspect and images as a multimodal aspect in Mother's Day commemorative posts on President Jokowi's Instagram account. The data analysis technique uses a pragmatic approach to examine captions and multimodal analysis to explore uploaded visuals. The research results show (1) pragmatic analysis of captions, there are several forms of illocutionary speech acts, including assertive speech acts (declaring), directive speech acts (giving advice/inviting), expressive speech acts (congratulating), and indirect speech act strategies; (2) multimodal analysis through information value, framing, salience, and sequence represents that mothers have a very important role in contributing to preparing their children for the future, caring for them with love, and participating in roles in public spaces. This post shows that the study of multimodal pragmatics on social media can contribute to conveying complex meanings in representing the mother's role.

Abstract

The concept of learning styles proposing the alignment of teaching methods and individual learning styles to enhance learning outcomes has gained popularity among English language teachers. However, numerous studies have debunked the concept by exposing weaknesses in the instruments used to measure learning styles and the underlying hypothesis. Therefore, there is a need for more research focusing on the merits and demerits of implementing learning styles theory in EFL classroom instruction. This study is presented to provide empirical understanding into the issue by presenting the latest research findings and providing recommendations for EFL teachers. To achieve this aim, the researchers conduct a literature review by collecting data from various document references and theories supporting the research. The literature was collected from journal articles published in the last five years, from 2018 to 2023. Based on the review, some studies confirmed that tailoring teaching methods to individual learning styles contributed to improved learning outcomes for EFL students. Conversely, other research has shown no significant or consistent correlation between teaching-specific learning styles and students' achievement. To address this disparity, the present study suggested that foreign language teachers maximize teaching-learning by considering several factors rather than one, such as teaching strategy, students' interpersonal orientations, knowledge, students' background, and interests. Teachers can balance instructional approaches, methods, and activities and apply various teaching strategies to reach all learners.

Abstract

African languages have long been marginalized and underrepresented in higher education curricula, in Africa and globally. However, there is a growing recognition of the significance of African languages in academic settings, particularly as a means of preserving and promoting cultural heritage and facilitating communication and knowledge transfer among diverse communities. Studies have shown that language plays a critical role in shaping individuals' identities and their ability to access and engage with education. Therefore, there is a dire need for inclusion of African languages in higher education curricula to promote cultural diversity and equity in education. The  use of African languages can enhance the relevance and impact of academic research and facilitate greater community participation in educational programmes. This article critically analyses the status of teaching and learning African languages in  2 institutions of higher education in  Kenya and  South Africa. It adopted a qualitative methodology and comparative case study as a design. It generated data through documents analysis . The study revealed that the two countries are not at the same level in implementing African languages in their curriculum. Whereas  universities in South Africa have African languages Programmes, the Universities in Kenya have no such programmes. Moreover, there are several challenges , including lack of resources and infrastructure to support language instruction and research, as well as a need for greater support for African languages in academic institutions. This study, concludes that the significance of African languages in higher education curriculum cannot be overstated. By promoting linguistic diversity, cultural heritage, , and enhancing the relevance and impact of academic research, the inclusion of African languages in higher education curricula can contribute significantly to the advancement of knowledge and equity in education.
