Abstract

EFL students should consider writing motivation in a blended learning (BL) framework. Previous studies have discussed findings related to whether motivations can make students write essays better. Few studies have examined descriptive essay learning motivation in BL design. This study examined EFL students' learning motivation on descriptive essays in BL designs and their perceptions on essay writing motivation. The respondents were 32 EFL students in one reputable private university in Jakarta, Indonesia. This study was a correlational survey. The data was collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and a descriptive essay writing test with a scoring rubric developed by Oshima & Hogue (2006). The result showed that there was a positive and significant contribution of learning motivation on descriptive essay in a BL design. It also showed that learning motivation contributed 12.9% to the students’ descriptive essay writing skill. In addition, most students felt happy to practice writing in a BL design. Thus, it is inferred that EFL students could perform their essay writing quality in a BL design when they had strong learning motivation which included the intrinsic and extrinsic domains.

Abstract

This paper presents the online teaching practice program that influence EFL pre-service teachers’ (PSTs) emotional experiences as the pre-cursor of their professional identity construction. This study involved six   PSTs enrolled teaching practice program in an initial teacher education. Dialogic reflection before, during, and after teaching enactment was employed to dig up information about their emotional experiences in an online classroom setting. The data were analyzed using appraisal analysis (Martin and White, 2007) and thematic analysis. The results document negative emotional experiences such as feeling dissatisfaction, doubtful, and confusion which lead to positive emotional experiences, such as caring. Factors that influence PS Ts’ emotional experiences in online teaching practice are lack of Curriculum Knowledge (CrK), lack of subject-matter knowledge or Content Knowledge (CK), and lack of Pedagogical Knowledge (PK) in terms of assessing students’ competence, and the interlink between theory and practice. All PS Ts develop a good understanding of how to exploit technological tools by encouraging their self-concept. This study substantiates the importance of shared-space coaching for teacher mentors before they become an escort for PSTs who are going to be professional teacher mentors.

Abstract

This study aimed to know the Epic X camp trainees' perceptions of their pedagogical competence in English teaching before and after the training. The researchers analyzed the pedagogical competence concept by using Voss et al. (2011). The instruments of this study were interviews and observations of 30 trainees from the American Corner Epic X camp 2024 held by the U.S. Embassy's Regional English Language Office (RELO). They consisted of preservice teachers, in-service teachers, and postgraduate students. The result showed that the participants had positive perceptions of the practice and a better understanding of the components of pedagogical competence in terms of the lesson plan, teaching strategy, teaching method, and the most visible classroom management. The positive perception was proven by the personal interview with the participants after and before the Epic X camp program and observation during micro-teaching in Epic X camp activities. This positive perception was in line with the purpose of the Epic X camp program which empowers trainees in their competence in teaching English. The researchers recommend that such a program be implemented for English teachers in Indonesia.

Abstract

This case study explores the perceptions of translanguaging in the academic writing process of pre-service teachers. Drawing upon the theories of forms translanguaging (Baynham & Lee, 2019; Garcia & Lin, 2016; Hua & Wei, 2022) and the stages of writing proposed by Hyland (2003), this research delves into how pre-service teachers perceive and utilize translanguaging in their writing. The study integrates observations, interviews, and artifact analysis involving pre-service teachers to understand their engagement with translanguaging as both a communicative and pedagogical strategy. The findings show that pre-service teachers not only view translanguaging as a method for effective communication but also as a crucial tool for enhancing their engagement with academic content, particularly in the stages of topic selection, pre-writing, writing, and feedback. In addition, the significant use of translation, code-mixing, and code-switching underscores their linguistic adaptability in a multilingual academic context. This research contributes to the academic discourse by providing insights into the role of translanguaging in the academic writing process and its implications for future teaching practices.

Abstract

Current developments in English Language Teaching (ELT) have heightened the urgent need for intercultural competence as another essential skill in contemporary language education. Today’s EFL teachers are required to possess intercultural competencies to effectively assist students in raising their intercultural awareness. This study aims to examine teachers’ international experiences regarding the development of their intercultural competence, utilizing the developmental model of intercultural sensitivity (DMIS) proposed by Bennett (1986, 2017) as the framework. Through the application of a multiple narrative approach, we analyzed the stories of two higher education teachers, collected via document study and three-cycle interviews. The results demonstrate the complexities of teachers’ intercultural competence development and highlight an important aspect: one’s intercultural progression, as they may flexibly alter based on the situation and condition faced at a given moment.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to assess the perceived usefulness of technology (PUT), internet self-efficacy (ISE), and perceived ease of use of technology (PEUT), and self-regulated learning (SRL) of EFL student teachers who participated in technology-mediated English learning environment. After obtaining and validating the questionnaire adapted from several relevant sources, an online survey was conducted to 363 third- and fourth-year student teachers of the English education department in Indonesian universities who met the required criteria. SEM was performed to test three hypotheses about the causal relationship between variables. Due to the hypotheses tested, it is revealed that ISE and PEUT have a partially positive and significant effect on SRL, while PUT has a positive but insignificant effect on SRL. Additionally, it is determined that the exogenous variables (PEUT) is the most influential variable on the endogenous variables (SRL). These findings are expected to add to a body of knowledge, particularly in the development of learning autonomy in teacher education, and that ISE and PEUT, in particular, should be considered as important predictors of SRL in technological English learning setting.

Abstract

Learning strategies encompass deliberate techniques and methods employed by individuals to optimize their acquisition and comprehension of information or skills. Among the categories of language learning strategies frequently utilized are memory, cognitive, compensatory, metacognitive, affective, and social strategies, all of which serve as valuable tools for enhancing language acquisition efficiency. Consequently, this study aims to assess the utilization level of language learning strategies, determining the extent to which students employ these strategies, and identifying the most and least utilized strategies in learning English. For data collection, this research adopted Oxford's Strategy Inventory Language Learning (SILL) questionnaire version 7.0. Employing quantitative descriptive methods, data were gathered from 42 Capiz National High School ESL students. The findings revealed a tendency among students to utilize strategies in their English learning endeavors, with cognitive strategies being the most frequently employed and affective strategies being the least used. These results underscore the importance for ESL teachers to tailor teaching methods, materials, and activities to align with students' preferred strategies, thereby supporting language learning effectively. Additionally, future studies are recommended to utilize larger and more diverse samples to further explore the relationships between learning strategies and other variables in greater depth.
