Abstract

Reading plays a critical role in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context, serving not only as a core linguistic skill but also as a gateway to academic success. This study explores EFL students’ perceptions of Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) and examines its influence on their motivation to engage in reading activities. Using a qualitative descriptive design, the data were collected from fifth-semester students enrolled in the Critical Reading course at Universitas Negeri Makassar through questionnaires and interviews. The findings revealed that students generally perceived CSR positively, recognizing its benefits in improving comprehension, clarifying complex texts, and promoting active participation. The CSR stages of preview, click & clunk, get the gist, and wrap up were largely seen as clear and practical, though some initial confusion was noted. Moreover, CSR fostered students’ engagement and enjoyment by creating an interactive and collaborative learning environment. Importantly, the strategy significantly boosted students’ reading motivation, both intrinsically and extrinsically, by making reading more structured, enjoyable, and socially rewarding. Further research could explore its long-term effects on academic achievement and its adaptability across different language proficiency levels.

Abstract

Internet usage in Indonesia has reached 212 million individuals as of February 2025. This indicates the need for the government to innovate and use technology to implement good governance. One of the problems in Indonesia is the low literacy of the community, and one of the causes is the lack of affordable access to books due to high prices. Through the Indonesian National Library, the Indonesian government has created the iPusnas application, a digital public library. However, technological innovation always faces the challenge of the digital divide. Through this research, the author examines the digital divide in the utilization of iPusnas by students of the National Development University “Veteran” Jakarta (UPNVJ) using digital divide theory. With a qualitative method, the author uses primary data through interviews with UPNVJ students from all faculties to explore the subjective experience of each informant. The result of the research is that most interviewees do not know the application, even though they have sufficient technology to access it. This requires a solution in the form of greater socialization from the application manager to the community through social media or direct socialization.

Abstract

This study explores the strategies employed by English language teachers in developing writing instructional materials within digitally enriched learning environments. Using a qualitative multiple case study design, six teachers from junior high, senior high, and vocational schools were observed and interviewed. Findings reveal that while all teachers perceive themselves as active material developers, their approaches vary based on their digital literacy, pedagogical beliefs, and access to technological infrastructure. A process-based writing approach is commonly applied, with digital tools such as Google Docs, Grammarly, Padlet, and Canva supporting different stages of instruction. Teachers selected tools based on usability, relevance to student needs, and contextual constraints. However, challenges such as limited preparation time, uneven student digital literacy, and lack of institutional support persist. The study affirms the relevance of the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework. It highlights the need for professional development that equips teachers with skills to design pedagogically meaningful digital writing tasks.

Abstract

The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms is globally recognized as essential for enhancing teaching and learning processes. However, despite this acknowledged need, the specific application and perception of ICT use within Indonesian primary schools remain an under-researched area, representing a significant gap in the existing literature. This qualitative case study aimed to investigate Indonesian EFL teachers' perceptions of ICT utilization in their classrooms and to identify the critical factors influencing their decisions to adopt such technologies. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with two English teachers in a primary school located in Makassar, Indonesia. The principal findings indicate that the participating teachers held overwhelmingly positive attitudes toward ICT integration in their teaching practices. This favorable disposition was significantly shaped by several factors, including the perceived ease of use and the perceived usefulness of ICT tools, the teachers' underlying pedagogical beliefs, supportive school policies and curriculum mandates, the ready accessibility of technological resources, and the provision of professional development opportunities. Concurrently, the study identified notable challenges, such as student behavior related to technology misuse and the teachers' self-reported lack of sufficient ICT skills and confidence. A compelling observation from the findings is the coexistence of extensive ICT use and positive perceptions with a perceived lack of personal competence among teachers. This suggests that powerful external factors, such as institutional support and the clear utility of the technology, can be more influential in driving adoption than individual skill mastery or confidence in the initial stages. The implication is that confidence might develop as a consequence of sustained use, rather than being a prerequisite for it. This study offers valuable insights for practitioners and educational stakeholders committed to fostering effective ICT integration within EFL contexts, particularly in similar developing educational environments.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the angry sentences delivered by Dedi Mulyadi in a news article published by tirto.id online media. The discourse analysis uses the Critical Discourse Analysis approach of the Norman Fairclough model. The data obtained from sentence quotations containing Dedi Mulyadi's expressions of anger in a public forum, which were then analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that the language used by Dedi Mulyadi not only reflects the expression of personal emotions, but also contains elements of power and ideology. The sentences are used to control public discourse and assert his position of authority in the face of local identity symbols such as Persikas. This discourse shows the power relations between political elites and civil society, as well as how the media plays a role in reproducing and disseminating ideological meanings to the wider community.

Abstract

Digital transformation through the implementation of E-Government aims to create efficient, transparent and accountable governance. However, in practice, this process is often hampered by corrupt practices that undermine the spirit of digitalization. This research examines the impact of the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology's misappropriation of funds for the 4G BTS development project, which caused state losses of Rp8.32 trillion, on E-Government governance in Indonesia. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and a case study method, this research will examine the impact of funding irregularities on the effectiveness of E-Government governance. The results show that corruption in the project not only hampered equitable access to digital infrastructure, but also undermined public trust and worsened the quality of digital services, especially in disadvantaged areas. The research also proposes preventive strategies that include strengthening digital surveillance, implementing anti-corruption technologies, and actively involving oversight institutions and the public in the procurement and implementation process of government digital projects. The findings are expected to serve as a policy reference in promoting government digital transformation with integrity and sustainability.
