Abstract

Incorporating ChatGPT in the educational field rapidly gained attention for its potential in the teaching and learning process, particularly in English for Specific Purposes (ESP). This exploratory case study investigates pre-service teachers’ experiences using ChatGPT during their teaching practicum in vocational high schools. Data were collected through a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with 4 pre-service teachers from different vocational majors. The findings revealed that ChatGPT served as a valuable teaching assistant, helping pre-service teachers generate content-specific materials, plan student activities, and design assessments. Pre-service teachers also noted ChatGPT's usefulness in addressing challenges related to limited technical vocabulary resources and subject-specific content. However, this study identified several limitations in using ChatGPT, including inaccuracies in specialized terminology, rigid language outputs, and overly simplistic assessment tasks that required careful prompting and editing. This study highlights the need for strategic incorporation of AI tools in teacher education and suggests further research to optimize AI applications in vocational education settings

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low value of polite speaking skills. This is due to the use of suboptimal learning methods, the use of suboptimal learning models, inadequate learning media, and inadequate school infrastructure. This study aims to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of E-Comic Polite Pals media for grade I elementary school students. This type of research is a development research with the Borg and Gall Research and Development model. Data collection used observation, interview, documentation, questionnaire, and oral test techniques. The data analysis techniques used were the normality test, t-test, Wilcoxon test, and N-Gain test. The results of the E-Comic Polite Pals media feasibility assessment from media experts obtained a score of 95%. The assessment from the material expert obtained a score of 91.25%. The assessment from the material expert obtained a score of 91.25%. The effectiveness of Polite Pals E-Comic media on polite speaking skills material was proven in the t-test and Wilcoxon test, with small-scale trial results involving 6 elementary school grade I students with high, medium, and low levels of speaking skills, obtained a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.05. In a large-scale trial involving 28 elementary school grade students, some of whom experienced difficulties in speaking skills, a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.05 was obtained. The average increase in Pretest to Posttest of large group product trials was 21.11 (60.35 increased to 81.46). The results of the small-scale N-Gain test obtained an N-Gain of 0.46, and in the large-scale product trial, an N-Gain of 0.53. Based on data analysis, the Polite Pals E-Comic media is feasible and effective in learning the polite speaking skills of lower-class students.

Abstract

This article reviews environmental damage as depicted in literary works by North Sumatran authors between 2010 and 2022, focusing on damage caused by natural phenomena. Using a literary ecocriticism framework and a qualitative descriptive method, the study explores how literature reflects environmental concerns. From 25 works analyzed, 7 literary pieces explicitly address ecological degradation, such as Kampung Medan by Afrion (2011), Pincalang by Idris Pasaribu (2012), Langsam by Nani Tandjung (2016), and Young Woman in a Luxury Hotel by Hamsad Rangkuti (2016). The findings indicate that these authors show increasing ecological awareness by portraying themes of nature's beauty, its vulnerability, and the human role in environmental destruction through illegal logging, uncontrolled development, and low ecological awareness. The study concludes that these literary works not only serve as educational and entertainment media but also act as critical reflections and offer solutions, including environmental conservation, sustainable resource management, and fostering human-nature harmony, which can be integrated into language and literature education.

Abstract

Speaking is often considered as complex compared to the other three language skills. When engaged in speaking, individuals must produce speech in a limited timeframe, resulting in a brief gap between understanding words and verbalizing them. Consequently, speech errors remain common. Several factors may attribute to the speech errors occurrence, including the affective factor of personality. The present study aims to explore the correlation between students' personalities, specifically introverts and extroverts, and their speech error probability. A descriptive quantitative design and correlational method were employed, involving 26 undergraduate students of the English Education Department at Universitas Islam Darul ‘Ulum Lamongan, enrolled in a Speaking for Academic Purposes course. The Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) was utilized as the primary instrument, along with oral test of speech errors following the theory proposed by Clark and Clark (1977). Pearson Product-Moment Correlation analysis revealed a significance (2-tailed) value of 0.836 (>0.05), indicating no statistically significant correlation between personality type and speech error frequency. The correlation coefficient of -0.043 further suggested a weak negative relationship. These findings contribute to psycholinguistic research in EFL contexts by suggesting that personality traits, while influential in broader communicative behavior, may not directly impact students' linguistic processing accuracy in oral tasks. This insight supports the idea that effective spoken communication in EFL learning can be achieved regardless of individual personality types. Future studies are encouraged to expand the sample size and include more diverse student populations to validate and extend these findings.

Abstract

This research aims to explain the level of linguistic verbal intelligence of students who are studying Arabic, because it involves the ability to understand, use, and manipulate language effectively, both orally and in writing. This research uses a mixed method approach to describe students' linguistic verbal intelligence. Data was collected through the IST (Intelligence Structure Test) compiled by Rudolf Amthauer in 1953 in Frankfurt, Germany because the components in the structure are arranged hierarchically, where the dominant field will influence other fields, the dominant ability in the intelligence structure will determine and influence other abilities. It consists of parts that are interconnected in meaning (structure). Their linguistic verbal dominant questionnaire, which was distributed to 520 students at UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang using random sampling techniques. The results of the research show that the level of linguistic verbal intelligence of UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang students has a value of 103.92 in the sufficient category, where 0.38% of UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang students have linguistic verbal intelligence in very superior category, 43,27% have linguistic verbal intelligence in the high category, and 39,42% have linguistic verbal intelligence in the sufficient category. This shows that students' readiness to absorb Arabic language material is closely related to their linguistic verbal intelligence. Meanwhile, the results of research on the most dominant linguistic verbal dominant possessed by students are that 83.65 of students are able to use imaginative reasoning when writing or speaking, 83.19 of students are able to describe an object or event well, 78.15 of students try to tell good stories about many things, 76.88%of students read a text first and store it in memory before writing and speaking, and 76.27 of students like to talk with humor. Verbal linguistic intelligence contributes to Arabic language learning through verbal attraction, concept formation, and logical thinking, which helps students analyze the meaning of sentences, construct arguments, and solve language problems, such as understanding Arabic statements.

Abstract

This study explores Toulmin Argument Patterns (TAP) in argumentative essays by Asian EFL learners, focusing on gender and topic-based comparison. Using an adapted Toulmin model, it analyses argument components, claims, data, counter-arguments, and rebuttals, from the ICNALE corpus on topics "smoking" and "part-time job". Indonesian female learners constructed higher-quality arguments with comprehensive rebuttals, whereas their male counterparts relied more on basic elements. Among Chinese learners, gender differences were minimal, with both genders showing balanced TAP use, reflecting structured critical-thinking education. Familiar topics like "part-time job" led to more complex arguments, while less relatable topics like "smoking" resulted in weaker argumentation. Cultural factors also influenced argument quality, with Confucian-influenced education fostering consistency among Chinese learners and diverse educational practices leading to variability in Indonesian learners. These insights can inform curriculum design by encouraging the integration of culturally relevant and gender-responsive writing tasks that support students' critical thinking and argumentative skills. Future research should expand to broader linguistic and cultural contexts to refine TAP-based pedagogical strategies and deepen understanding of argumentative competence in EFL settings.

Abstract

The growing integration of Digital Multimodal Composing (DMC) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction has transformed conventional grammar teaching methods by incorporating text, images, sound, and movement. However, limited empirical research explores its application in grammar instruction, particularly from the perspective of pre-service teachers. Guided by Liang and Lim (2020) DMC pedagogical framework, grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics and Design Thinking, this study examines the implementation of DMC in an Indonesian EFL higher education context. Fifteen pre-service teachers from an English Language Education Program participated in the study. Data were collected using a case study design through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and student reflections. Findings indicate that DMC fosters engagement, enhances conceptual understanding, and develops digital literacy skills. High-achieving students demonstrated strong digital fluency, creativity, and analytical skills in integrating multimodal elements into grammar lessons. Conversely, low-achieving students faced challenges with multimodal cohesion, tool navigation, and troubleshooting technical issues. The study highlights the importance of explicit instruction, guided practice, and peer collaboration in supporting students' multimodal literacy development. It emphasizes the need for structured pedagogical scaffolding to effectively integrate DMC into EFL grammar instruction. The findings suggest that while DMC promotes student-centered and multimodal learning, sustained instructional support and curriculum integration are essential for its success.

Abstract

The studies of peer review in EFL composition class have received considerable attention in the literature. However, little understanding of how students as reviewers perceived peer review in a virtual learning environment as part of remote assessment. Due to the expansion of technology and the implementation of hybrid learning, language instructions were shifted from an on-site (face-to-face) learning mode into a blended learning system, including language assessment activities. Although existing research on peer review has been extensive, peer review from a peer reviewer perpectives in the virtual setting is still infrequent. This research aims to investigate EFL students' perspectives as peer reviewers in virtual writing contexts in Indonesian Higher Education. The current study was conducted in an exploratory case study approach. The participants were 41 students. The instruments were open-ended questionnaires and in-depth interviews. In addition, the comment analysis from the peer reviewers was investigated from the rubric of the peer review form. The findings revealed that almost all the peer reviewers voiced positive repertoires regarding the experiences in peer review in a virtual learning environment, and the comment analysis found mostly in the micro and macro meanings and strength comments as the crucial parts in delivering review to the peer reviewees’ artefacts.  The findings revealed that almost all the peer reviewers voiced positive repertoires regarding the experiences in peer review in a virtual learning environment, and the comment analysis found mostly the micro and macro meanings and strength comments as the crucial parts in delivering review to the peer reviewees’ artefacts. The current study implies sharing recommendations for implementing peer review in the virtual writing context with proper preparation before the realization.

Abstract

The flipped classroom model redefines traditional teaching by enabling students to engage with course material before class, therefore optimizing in-class time for interactive learning activities. This paradigm utilizes digital technology to provide personalized immersive experiences that align with students’ digital behaviors and varied learning preferences, making it particularly relevant in EFL contexts where communicative practice is crucial.  This study sought to provide video-based supplemental speaking resources to facilitate the implementation of a flipped classroom model for eleventh-grade students. The study used a Research and Development (R&D) approach based on the Jolly and Bolitho (1998) framework, including several stages: need analysis, contextual and pedagogical realization, material production, implementation in the classroom, and evaluation. The data gathering included qualitative techniques, including interviews and document analysis, alongside quantitative approaches, such as student and expert questionnaires. The outcome materials tackled essential speaking challenges—fluency and intonation—utilizing authentic audio resources and pronunciation exercises, with topics customized to student interests to augment motivation and participation. The flipped model integrated online pre-class and in-class activities, facilitating systematic practice, immediate feedback, and active participation. The findings indicated that the materials fostered an inclusive learning environment, reinforced student confidence, and improved vocabulary and speaking skills, particularly among beginners. Expert evaluations classified the materials as “very appropriate” with a mean score of 3.4, within the 3.26 < x ≤ 4.00 rangee. These results indicate that meticulously designed video-based materials may effectively enhance flipped EFL classes and promote substantial language acquisition.

Abstract

Vocational schools provide practical training and technical education for various professions, such as automotive, construction, engineering and healthcare. Language skills are essential for competitiveness in the global era, as students use oral or written communication to share information and experiences. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of communicative competence, needs, and ways to develop students' competence. This research is a descriptive qualitative study that collected data from sixty students, three English teachers, and two officers. The study found that the communicative competence profile of private vocational school students is still low. Some of the factors that influence this condition are teachers' commitment and knowledge, students' competence, and school facilities. In order to be employed by the business world, graduates of private SMK must have several important abilities such as speaking, writing, reading, and have a good understanding of computer languages. These skills are essential to ensure that graduates can create official documents needed in the workplace, understand words and procedures, and communicate effectively. As a result, the growth of these skills will make graduates of private vocational schools more capable and readier to enter the workforce.
