Abstract

Self-efficacy is a critical component of academic article writing. Numerous studies have demonstrated that self-efficacy affects reading comprehension, but few have examined the level of self-efficacy between students and lecturers regarding academic writing. Consequently, this study sought to ascertain students' and lecturers' levels of self-efficacy in academic writing. By administering questionnaires and conducting interviews with students and teachers, this study takes an explanatory mixed-methods approach to the topic. The online survey assesses self-efficacy in academic writing, and students and lecturers complete unstructured interviews. The study enrolled eighty students and eighteen lecturers from the English Department of UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. The results indicate that students enrolled in the English Language Education and English Literature Study Programs have a moderate level of self-efficacy. The self-efficacy of lecturers in the English Language Education and English Literature Study Programs demonstrates similar results. Additionally, they are moderate, with a slightly higher average index. This study also discusses the implications of research in the field of education

Abstract

HOTS promote the idea of assessing students’ critical thinking, creative thinking, and problem solving. Many teachers claimed to implement HOTS in the classroom, but turned out they tended to have LOTS in their teaching and learning process. Since the teaching and learning process has shifted from in person meeting to the virtual one due to COVID-19, there was an adjustment to conduct the learning process. Hence, the present study aimed to figure out teacher’s strategies to deliver HOTS’ instruction, students’ HOTS, and the construction of HOTS’ instruction during online learning. This study employed qualitative research and two English teachers were involved. The data was gathered through classroom observation. The findings revealed that direct instruction and questioning strategies were efficient and effective to activate students’ HOTS through asking the students’ point of views about online and offline learning systems and having the students’ work in group to discuss a certain topic. Further, analyzing and evaluating procedural knowledge and metacognitive knowledge were the most abilities exposed by the instructions. In this case, the students activated their critical thinking, creative thinking during online learning. Then, the instructions delivered by the teachers during the class promoted students’ creative thinking and critical thinking because they encouraged students’ creativity, motivated their self-confidence to participate in the class, had the students be communicative, and exposed students’ understanding and knowledge. The instructions were clear enough and reflected imperative and interrogative sentences, so that the students easily understood what they needed to do during the learning process. However, one teacher could not promote HOTS pretty well because he encouraged the students to talk about direct and indirect speech, which was the area about understanding conceptual knowledge.

Abstract

For employment, industries want recent graduates to have strong technical communication abilities. Therefore, it is important for engineering organizations to have competent technical communicators. As a result, this study looks at how Indonesian polytechnic engineering students assess their own technical communication competency needs in terms of knowledge, abilities, and attitudes toward technical communication in English. A survey on students' perceived needs for technical communication skills received responses from 85 diploma students in various engineering courses at a polytechnic. The study's findings showed that the students' knowledge and abilities about technical communication in English were low intermediate (mean > 3,5 score). In comparison to knowledge and attitudes about technical communication in English, skills in technical communication in English had the lowest mean score. This suggested that the pupils lacked technical English communication abilities. Despite this, the study's findings indicate that students understood the importance of technical communication skills for their future careers. Because need analysis is a continuous process for identifying learning needs, this study has shown that it is worthwhile to review the current needs of the polytechnic engineering students since students' responses could serve as a basis for the improvement of the classroom materials. Finally, this study has recommended that technical communication courses be included to the polytechnic education system since they are crucial for employment in a variety of fields, including engineering.
