Abstract

QuillBot is one of the online programs that can be utilized to enhance students’ writing skills. By integrating the paraphrasing tool QuillBot into the writing instruction, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of QuillBot paraphraser on the students’ paraphrasing ability. Additionally, this study sought to find out the students' opinions on paraphrasing and on the use of QuillBot in paraphrasing. Adopting a mixed method with explanatory design, this study employed quasi-experimental research with a one group pretest posttest design. There were 44 fourth-semester students taking the Academic Writing course in the English study program at the University of Mataram participating in this study. The students’ paraphrasing ability was tested before and after the treatment with both manual paraphrasing instruction and QuillBot paraphrasing tool. While, the students’ opinions towards paraphrasing instruction integrating the QuillBot paraphrasing tool was discovered through questionnaire. Further, the collected data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively to answer the predetermined research objectives. The results of t-test showed that there was a significant difference between the students’ paraphrasing ability before and after the treatment with significance value 0.000 lower than 0.05. In addition, most students responded positively to the integration of QuillBot in paraphrasing instruction, as it not only improved their literacy skills but also their motivation in learning paraphrasing in which the use of QuillBot paraphraser is simple, easy, instant and time-saving. This study highlights and confirms the potential of AI tools like QuillBot to enhance language instruction. Other reseachers might compare the efficacy of QuillBot paraphraser to other automatic paraphraser in writing instruction and use both questionnaire and interview to obtain more detailed information about the students’ attitudes or opinions.

Abstract

A learner's EFL learning can be affected by various factors, one of which is socio-economic status (SES), with most Indonesians belonging to the middle SES. This study employs a case study approach and semi-structured interviews to explore the barriers faced by middle SES Indonesians in EFL learning and the potential support mechanisms. The findings reveal three key themes: support from surroundings, access to learning resources, and self-efficacy. Support from surroundings and resource access are interrelated external factors, highlighting the importance of ease of access in the learning environment. Conversely, self-efficacy reflects learners' internal beliefs in their ability to succeed in EFL. The study suggests several support mechanisms, such as providing equitable opportunities for practice, enhancing access to learning materials, and fostering a supportive educational environment. Resources like visual aids, culturally relevant materials, and free language platforms can significantly benefit not only middle SES learners but others as well. Despite these insights, the study has limitations, including reliance on interviews and a small participant pool of four graduates. Future research should utilize multiple instruments and larger, more diverse samples for stronger findings. The insights gained can inform policymakers, educators, and families in enhancing EFL implementation, emphasizing that support should also come from home. Implementing educational policies that address the needs of all socio-economic classes can make learning more relevant and engaging.

Abstract

In the context of the 2024 presidential election campaign, the proliferation of memes as a medium of public and supporter expression has become increasingly prominent. Memes serve as a vehicle for political commentary, often reflecting public sentiment and opinion. However, a significant concern arises from the pervasive use of linguistic impoliteness within these memes. This study aims to examine the phenomenon of linguistic impoliteness in memes related to the 2024 presidential election. Employing a descriptive qualitative research method, data were collected from a variety of meme images sourced from the internet. The analysis reveals that linguistic impoliteness in these memes manifests in several forms, including bald on-record impoliteness, positive impoliteness, negative impoliteness, sarcasm, and the withholding of politeness. These forms of impoliteness not only reflect the aggressive nature of political discourse but also have the potential to incite conflict among different political factions. The findings suggest a need for more responsible meme usage, particularly in politically charged contexts, to foster a healthier and more constructive political dialogue. The study concludes that while memes are a powerful tool for political expression, their potential to exacerbate tensions should not be overlooked. Implications for future research include exploring strategies for mitigating the negative impact of impoliteness in online political communication.

Abstract

Educational psychology course and the epistemic beliefs of prospective teachers play a role in forming a competent teacher. While there is substantial literature exploring teachers’ epistemic belief, its interplay with course studies by prospective English teacher remains unclear. This research provides a novel understanding on the interplay of epistemic beliefs with educational psychology course, and achievement of prospective English teacher by integrating an explanatory sequential mixed methods design. Using quantitative survey to collect GPA (Grade Average Points), epistemic beliefs and perception of educational psychology, this study involve 102 EFL students at Brawijaya University through convenience sampling. Descriptive statistical and correlation analysis conducted in the first stage reveal their epistemic was moderate and their perception was high, and only between their epistemic beliefs and perception was found a strong correlation. Through confirming or disconfirming sampling, representative from the first stage participated in qualitative phase for semi-structured interview, resulting in justification of their positive perception and confirmation of the interconnection with epistemic beliefs. Findings imply there is a need to comprise aspects of high epistemic beliefs to have a more positive educational psychology course, that encourage adequate developmental feedback, active learning environments, inclusive advocacy, and student self-efficacy.. The high interest in unlisted content in the current module implies the need for material relevance of the course. The implication is for EFL teacher education to reconsider the content in educational psychology with students’ epistemic beliefs in order to equip English education students to become effective teachers.

Abstract

The act of reading necessitates that student readers employ various cognitive and linguistic tactics to comprehend the meaning embedded within the text. Using an e-learning method through WhatsApp groups to teach reading comprehension on narrative texts can be a new breakthrough. Therefore, the present study aims to find out the effect of WhatsApp groups on narrative text in junior high school students to teach reading comprehension. To reach the research aims, the study used experimental research method. The population of this research was 330 students of grade 9 of junior high school in Pematangsiantar. The researchers divided the samples intor control group and experimental group. The data collection method used was the reading tests employed to the students which covered pre-test, treatment, and post-test. The statistical analysis employed t-test analysis. Comparison of data from both groups indicated superior performance by the experimental group. The findings unequivocally show that the experimental intervention employing WhatsApp have significant effect on students’ reading comprehension of narrative text compared to traditional approaches. While WhatsApp has proven to be an effective tool, researchers must consider the challenges of using it for reading instruction in remote areas with limited internet connectivity. Students cannot access WhatsApp-based reading lessons without internet access, though they can still search for information through text messages. Therefore, it is important to examine the limitations of utilizing WhatsApp for reading education in areas with poor internet infrastructure.

Abstract

This study investigates the enhancement of English writing assessments focusing on local cuisine as a thematic subject. A comprehension test was employed as a key instrument to measure students' progress and evaluate their understanding of the lessons delivered. Following the test administration, the teacher utilized appropriate assessment methods to ensure accurate evaluation. The primary objective of this research is to develop and refine writing assessments for English language learners, particularly within the context of local culinary topics. The study adopted a Research and Development (R&D) approach, structured into six distinct stages: (1) information and data collection, (2) data analysis, (3) development of new writing assessments, (4) expert validation, (5) revision of assessments, and (6) finalization of the validated tool. Data was gathered through interviews and questionnaires distributed to English teachers. Two evaluators—an English lecturer and an English instructor—provided critical validation of the assessment tools. The evaluation framework emphasized three core competencies: attitude, knowledge, and skill, incorporating a formative and authentic assessment approach. The writing tasks centered on topics such as local dishes, pastries, and beverages, integrating cultural elements into language learning. The assessment instruments underwent validation by two professionals, yielding an excellent classification score of 93%, indicating the reliability and effectiveness of the developed tools. The study underscores the significance of culturally relevant content in English language learning, fostering deeper engagement and contextual understanding among students. By integrating local cuisine into writing assessments, the research highlights the potential to enhance both linguistic competence and cultural awareness, promoting a more holistic educational experience.
