Abstract

The enhancement of teachers’ competence and performance has been a primary objective of Indonesia’s teacher certification program (PPG). This study aimed to describe and interpret certified teachers’ professional competencies as reflected in their classroom practices and teaching performance. Employing an explanatory mixed-method design, the study integrated qualitative interviews to explain specific trends identified in the quantitative phase. Data were collected from 15 certified English teachers enrolled in the 2021 PPG program at Tadulako University, selected through purposive sampling. The instruments used to collect data were questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The data collected from this study were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The questionnaire data were processed and statistically analyzed, while the interview data were analyzed qualitatively. Based on the data analysis, the participating teachers perceived themselves as having pedagogical, personal, social, and professional competencies and had implemented them in the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, in terms of teacher performance – including lesson planning, teaching implementation, learning evaluation, and task discipline – the teachers could be considered competent.

Abstract

Despite the multilingual realities of EFL classrooms, English language teaching in many contexts continues to be influenced by monolingual ideologies that limit the recognition of multilingual practices in learning and teaching. Limited research has examined how translanguaging practices support meaning-making and pedagogical development among preservice teachers in Indonesian EFL teacher education contexts. This study examined translanguaging practices among preservice English teachers in an Indonesian EFL teacher education context, focusing on how these practices supported meaning-making and shaped pedagogical orientations. A qualitative case study design was employed involving 30 undergraduate students enrolled in a Sociolinguistics course. Data were collected through reflective narratives and semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicated that translanguaging functioned as a dynamic and strategic resource in three main ways: facilitating conceptual understanding of complex content, sustaining interaction and participation during communication, and supporting the development of inclusive pedagogical perspectives. Participants flexibly used Indonesian and English to bridge linguistic gaps, maintain communicative flow, and enhance comprehension. The findings also showed that translanguaging contributed to shifts in language ideology, with participants increasingly viewing multilingual practices as legitimate and pedagogically valuable. This study highlights the importance of integrating translanguaging-oriented approaches into teacher education programs to promote more inclusive, context-responsive, and equitable English language teaching.

Abstract

This study examined the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) contexts to promote Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted on 25 empirical studies published between 2021 and 2026 using predefined inclusion criteria and the PRISMA framework. The reviewed studies indicate that PjBL is frequently associated with the development of HOTS, particularly critical thinking (72%), followed by creativity (28%) and problem-solving (20%). The review identified five major categories of project outputs, including digital projects, performance-based tasks, academic writing, creative-cultural works, and integrated classroom projects. Rubric-based assessment emerged as the most commonly used assessment method, although assessment practices remained inconsistent across studies. Several studies also reported challenges related to time constraints, teacher readiness, and variations in implementation strategies. In addition, PjBL was commonly integrated with technology-based and collaborative learning approaches in EFL classrooms. This review contributes to the literature by synthesizing patterns of HOTS development, project output types, assessment practices, and instructional integration in PjBL-based EFL learning. Overall, the findings highlight the need for more balanced HOTS-oriented task design, clearer assessment frameworks, and more consistent implementation practices.

Abstract

Academic writing remains a challenge for university-level EFL learners, particularly in producing coherent texts through the effective use of cohesive devices. In the Libyan EFL context, previous studies have mainly examined cohesion errors in students’ writing, while limited attention has been given to the pedagogical and curricular practices that shape students’ use of cohesive devices. This study investigates how cohesive devices are taught within the writing curriculum of the English Department at Fezzan University. Using a descriptive qualitative case study design, the study involved syllabus analysis of five writing courses, questionnaires administered to 20 undergraduate students, and semi-structured interviews with five writing lecturers. The analysis was guided by Renandya et al.’s (2021) “Bridging the Reading–Writing Gap” framework to examine reading-writing integration across curriculum, teaching practices, and student learning experiences. The findings revealed that although the writing courses follow a logical progression from sentence-level writing to advanced academic writing, cohesive devices are mostly addressed implicitly rather than through systematic discourse-level instruction. Lecturers primarily emphasized grammar and vocabulary, while cohesion was treated as a secondary skill acquired through writing practice. The study suggests that integrating reading and writing instruction with explicit teaching of cohesive devices may better support students’ academic writing development.

Abstract

This study developed a needs-based digital book for English vocabulary and phrases for tenth-grade students at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri Palopo. The study addressed a mismatch between learners' communicative needs and the available English-learning materials. Using a research and development design, the study adapted the 4D model through define, design, develop, and limited dissemination stages. The needs analysis involved 36 students and was supported by classroom observation, interviews, questionnaires, expert validation sheets, and user perception questionnaires. The results showed that students needed practical vocabulary for communication, pronunciation support, visual presentation, translation, and mobile-accessible materials. These findings were translated into a digital book containing thematic vocabulary, common phrase-based expressions, pictures, translations, phonetic guidance, and context-sensitive Islamic and daily-life content. Expert validation indicated that the product was feasible in terms of design, language, and material quality, with scores ranging from 4.00 to 4.42. Student and teacher responses also indicated positive practicality for limited use. The findings should be interpreted as evidence of validity and practicality, not as proof of instructional effectiveness, because no experimental test of learning gains was conducted.

Abstract

Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) is increasingly recognized as a foundational skill for interpreter trainees, yet its systematic integration into interpreting pedagogy remains underexplored, particularly in the Indonesian higher education context. This study investigates how ICC, operationalized through Byram's (1997) five-savoir framework, manifests in consecutive interpreting performance and intercultural interaction among undergraduate students enrolled in English study programs at a public university in West Java, Indonesia. Drawing on two complementary datasets, (1) pre-test and post-test interpreting transcripts from 15 students interpreting authentic Japanese–English political speeches into Indonesian, and (2) post-conference questionnaire data and observation notes from an Online International Student Conference (OISC) involving 12 Indonesian and 15 Japanese undergraduates, the study employs thematic analysis to examine ICC development of attitudes, knowledge, and skills aspects. Findings indicate that structured interpreting instruction grounded in genre awareness and intercultural reflection produces measurable gains in accuracy, pragmatic equivalence, and cultural mediation strategies. Students who developed stronger ICC demonstrated greater tolerance for ambiguity, more sophisticated discourse repair, and heightened awareness of ideological dimensions in source texts. The study proposes an ICC-informed model for interpreting pedagogy in Indonesian English study programs and identifies implications for curriculum design, assessment rubric development, and international collaboration.

Abstract

This study mapped the global landscape of pragmatics and speech act research through a bibliometric approach. A corpus of 1,346 Scopus-indexed articles and reviews published between 2015 and 2025 was analyzed using the bibliometrix package in R and Biblioshiny, examining publication trends, citation patterns, and network structures including co-authorship, co-citation, and keyword co-occurrence. The findings revealed a sustained growth in research output (annual growth rate: 10.1%), sustained by a small set of core journals, most prominently the Journal of Pragmatics, and a group of highly prolific authors distributed across institutions in Europe, East Asia, and the Middle East. Theoretically, the field remained anchored in foundational constructs derived from speech act theory, politeness, and interlanguage pragmatics, while emerging areas such as digital discourse, corpus-based approaches, and computational applications had gained increasing visibility. Co-citation analysis identified Austin (1962), Searle (1979), and Brown and Levinson (1987) as the most consistently cited intellectual anchors. The co-word network revealed a conceptual structure centered on speech acts and pragmatics, with interconnected clusters related to politeness and interactional norms, specific speech-act types such as requests and apologies, and emerging computational or data-driven approaches. Taken together, the results sketched a field that had grown substantially over the decade, consolidated around a recognizable set of theoretical anchors, and opened up toward new methods, media, and cross-linguistic contexts.
