Abstract

This study investigates the impact of peer-Dynamic Assessment (peer-DA) on the development of interlanguage pragmatic (ILP) competence among Indonesian EFL learners. While pragmatic competence is crucial for appropriate language use, systematic assessment approaches remain limited in the Indonesian EFL context, particularly regarding the integration of instruction and assessment. Through a true experimental design, 43 upper-intermediate EFL learners were randomly assigned to experimental (n=22) and control (n=21) groups. The experimental group received peer-DA instruction emphasizing collaborative scaffolding and reciprocal mediation, while the control group received traditional non-DA instruction. Data collection utilized the Key English Test (KET) for homogenization and dual multiple-choice ILP assessments for pre-and post-testing. Statistical analysis through independent samples t-tests revealed no significant differences between groups in pre-test scores (t(35)=2.92, p>.05). However, post-test results demonstrated significantly higher ILP competence in the experimental group (M=14.79, SD=3.14) compared to the control group (M=8.11, SD=2.78; t(35)=4.47, p<.05). These findings suggest that peer-DA effectively enhances Indonesian EFL learners' pragmatic competence, offering valuable implications for integrating assessment and instruction in EFL pragmatic development.

Abstract

This study investigates using co-creation strategies and AI tools to improve translation skills among English Education students at STAIN Mandailing Natal. Sixty students shared their experiences with Peer Review, Collaborative Translation Projects, and Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) Tools. The feedback highlighted areas for effective AI integration. Consequently, researchers proposed using AI for real-time feedback in Peer Review sessions, facilitating communication in collaborative projects with AI project management tools, and enhancing predictive text features in CAT Tools using advanced machine learning. After several months of implementing these methods, a post-test showed significant improvements: accuracy rose by 20%, fluency by 15%, and appropriateness scores by 18%. Confidence levels also increased across all translation aspects. The study shows that integrating AI within co-creation strategies enhances both hard skills (translation abilities) and soft skills (teamwork & confidence), improving overall learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Knoword, a gamified online tool, in improving students' vocabulary acquisition. Vocabulary mastery plays a crucial role in language learning, yet many students, particularly in public schools, struggle with insufficient vocabulary knowledge due to factors like low engagement and traditional teaching methods. This research addresses these challenges by exploring how digital tools can enhance learning outcomes. The study employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) as the methodology, conducted in a public high school in Batam with 42 students in the 10th grade. The research process consisted of a learning cycle involving planning, action, observation, and reflection. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to measure students’ vocabulary skills before and after implementing Knoword. Observations during classroom sessions also provided qualitative data on student engagement and motivation. The results showed a significant improvement in students' vocabulary acquisition. The average pre-test score was 51.59, categorized as poor, while the post-test score increased to 83.05, classified as good, with a 31.47% improvement. The findings indicate that the use of Knoword enhanced students' motivation, engagement, and vocabulary retention, making it an effective tool for vocabulary learning. The study concludes that incorporating gamified learning platforms can significantly improve vocabulary acquisition and student outcomes, especially in educational environments where traditional methods have shown limited effectiveness.

Abstract

Writing skills are essential for learners in mastering English as a global language. Non-native learners face challenges such as grammatical errors, limited vocabulary, and lack of confidence, making technological solutions like Ginger Software highly relevant. This study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to analyze the effectiveness of Ginger Software in enhancing English writing skills. The research synthesizes findings from various studies published between 2015 and 2025, highlighting Ginger’s ability to improve grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure through real-time feedback and context-based learning. Results indicate that Ginger Software significantly enhances writing quality, supports self-directed learning, and increases learners' motivation. However, challenges such as accessibility limitations, integration into workflows, and over-reliance on technology were also identified. While Ginger Software proves beneficial for addressing common writing errors, its limitations in providing nuanced, contextualized feedback emphasize the continued importance of educators in the learning process. This study concludes that combining AI-based tools like Ginger Software with traditional teaching methods can provide a balanced and comprehensive approach to improving English writing skills. Future research should explore strategies for greater inclusivity and the development of hybrid models integrating AI technologies with human instruction.

Abstract

This study investigates perceptions of, attitudes toward, challenges in, and how critique is influencing students’ academic and reflective growth. Data were collected according to a mixed-methods study design through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with 25 undergraduate students enrolled in a Critical Reading course at Universitas Samudra. It has been found that appreciation by the students of the significance of critique in building critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and academic writing exists, but they find it challenging to handle complex terminologies, identifying arguments, and being objective. Time also seems to be a limiting factor. Students perceive that guided practice, group discussion, and further practice would make them more competent in critiquing. The literature addresses the need for learning processes that enable students to transition from recapitulation to critical thinking, and eventually to more intellectual engagement and confidence in scholarship. The literature guides the overarching argument about critical reading and its role in college learning.

Abstract

This study explores how English teachers in an Indonesian MGMP (Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran) community perceive and integrate Kahoot in EFL classrooms. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected from six teachers through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results show that teachers use Kahoot for various pedagogical purposes, including vocabulary review, grammar reinforcement, and formative assessment. Teachers also employed different integration strategies, using Kahoot as warm-ups, comprehension checks, and review activities. Despite challenges such as limited internet access, lack of devices, and time constraints, teachers observed significant improvements in student motivation, participation, and confidence. The study highlights the role of professional collaboration within MGMP in supporting technology use, and the importance of teacher agency in adapting digital tools to meet classroom needs. The findings suggest that teacher-mediated gamification through Kahoot can enhance both engagement and learning outcomes in EFL contexts, particularly when supported by reflective teaching practices and local collaboration.
