Abstract

The effect of globalization in all sectors of life will impact on the moral degradation of the Indonesian students. It is due to the fact that it is easy for students to imitate cultural behaviors from other countries through social media that are difficult to be controlled by parents and teachers. School children who are still immature in mind may easily adopt the fast spread of information from different parts of the world regardless of whether or not they are appropriate with the Indonesian culture. Culturally, what is considered good behaviors in one country may not be accepted in other countries or vice versa. Therefore, the inclusion of moral education (character education) in Indonesia is crucial to avoid students’ misconception of moral values and to direct students’ behaviors in appropriate ways.

Abstract

The use of computer media by teachers for the benefit of teaching is something that is often encountered. With the character of open computer media, teachers can access all information. Of course, the information obtained will have the potential to influence the teacher's mindset or the teacher's perspective on something related to education. Therefore, this study aims to find out the roles of computer media in EFL teachers' mindset on teaching. This study used a narrative inquiry research design and used semi-structured interviews with two EFL teachers in Jember to obtain data. The data obtained was analyzed using thematic analysis and succeeded in finding the roles of computer media, including managing time, improving quality of instruction, encouraging active classes, controlling assignments, providing innovation, and tools for interaction. This study also found teachers' opinions about teaching EFL with and without computer media. It can be concluded that the roles of computer media facilitate the teaching of English. Therefore, the teacher assumes that computer media helps teachers in teaching and makes teachers more creative and varied when teaching.

Abstract

This study explores the driving factors behind EFL students' reading difficulties and the coping strategies employed by teachers. Previous studies about similar research mostly conducted overseas. This indicated a lack of attention to students’ English reading skills in Indonesia. Several consequences can occur if English teachers in Indonesia are unaware of the importance of students English reading skills learning. These include inadequate preparation, limited vocabulary growth, poor comprehension skills, reduced motivation, and missed opportunities (Nanda, 2020). This research conducted at an Islamic senior high school in Jember, East Java, Indonesia, the research utilizes a qualitative case study design to delve into teachers' perceptions. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with a female EFL teacher. The findings identify key obstacles, including limited vocabulary, restricted exposure to the target language, and insufficient practice opportunities. To address these issues, teachers use strategies such as teaching the alphabetic principle, phonemic awareness exercises, vocabulary-building activities, and providing additional reading materials. The study highlights the importance of targeted interventions focusing on vocabulary and practice to enhance reading proficiency. However, limitations include the small sample size and reliance on self-reported data. Future research should involve larger, more diverse samples to validate these findings. This research offers valuable insights into EFL challenges and suggests practical solutions for improving reading instruction, thereby supporting students' academic and personal success.

Critical discourse analysis was conducted to characterize, understand and explain the nature of the textbook’s discourse.

Consequently, the imbalanced representation of peace values may lead to failure of raising the optimal implementation of the three categories of peace values
