Abstract

African American Vernacular English (AAVE) is a rule-governed variety of English that remains marginalized in many EFL classrooms, where Standard English dominates instruction. In Indonesia, students are increasingly exposed to AAVE through digital media, yet little is known about their perceptions of this variety. This study explored students’ perceptions of AAVE in English learning contexts at Tadulako University. A descriptive qualitative design was employed, with data collected through semi-structured interviews involving three eighth-semester English Education students. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed three major themes: students’ initial impressions and emotional responses to AAVE, their views on its legitimacy and role in English education, and the influence of digital media on their perceptions and language use. Overall, the participants perceived AAVE as a legitimate and culturally meaningful variety of English while recognizing Standard English as more appropriate for formal academic settings. Although the findings provide in-depth insights into students’ perceptions, the small sample size limits the transferability of the results to broader EFL contexts. Nevertheless, this study highlights the importance of introducing diverse English varieties in EFL classrooms to promote linguistic awareness, cultural understanding, and inclusive language education.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is an essential skill for English language learners, yet junior high school students experience difficulties in understanding narrative texts because of limited vocabulary, low reading motivation, and insufficient exposure to culturally relevant reading materials. Integrating local folktales into English instruction may enhance students’ comprehension. This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of Napu folktales in improving the reading comprehension of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Lore Peore. A quantitative pre-experimental one-group pre-test-post-test design was used. The participants consisted of 40 eighth-grade students selected through total sampling. Because the population at SMP Negeri 2 Lore Peore was fewer than 100 students, 20 students from SMP Negeri 1 Lore Peore were included to complete the sample. Data were collected using a reading comprehension test consisting of 20 multiple-choice questions and 5 essay questions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired-samples t-test with SPSS version 25. The findings revealed a statistically significant improvement in students’ reading comprehension, with the mean score increasing from 30.0250 in the pre-test to 72.5750 in the post-test (p 0.05), indicating that the use of Napu folktales effectively improved students’ reading comprehension and promoted appreciation of their local cultural heritage.

Abstract

Listening is one of the most challenging language skills for EFL learners, particularly in selective listening activities that require students to identify specific information from spoken texts. To address this issue, interactive digital media such as Educaplay can provide engaging learning experiences and support listening comprehension. This study aimed to explore the benefits experienced by eighth-grade students when using Educaplay in selective listening activities. A qualitative case study design was selected because it enabled an in-depth exploration of students’ learning experiences, perceptions, and interactions within a real classroom context. The study involved 39 eighth-grade students at a junior high school in Kuningan Regency, West Java. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, student reflections, and field notes, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that Educaplay enhanced students’ engagement, motivation, confidence, vocabulary development, and selective listening abilities. Its interactive, game-based features promoted active participation and improved students’ ability to identify specific information from spoken texts while fostering time management and critical thinking. Although internet connectivity, audio comprehension, and device limitations posed challenges, students generally responded positively, indicating that Educaplay is an effective medium for supporting selective listening instruction in EFL classrooms.
