Abstract

English language competency is crucial for success in the classroom and in the workplace in today's worldwide society. This study examines how sixth-grade students at SD N 1 Baktiseraga can improve their English pronunciation skills by using the CAKE application, a mobile-assisted language learning tool. Utilizing Classroom Action Research (CAR) over two cycles, this research involved 25 students and aimed to improve pronunciation through interactive and interesting technological methods. Initial observations indicated low levels of engagement and pronunciation challenges among students. This intervention involves a learning plan that incorporates the CAKE application, with a focus on everyday conversations and practical speaking exercises. Data collection includes pre-test and post-test to measure progress as well as observation data to assess student participation and engagement. The results showed significant improvements in students' pronunciation skills and increased class participation. Uniformity of pronunciation abilities among students also increased, indicating reduced variation in skills. This research shows the effectiveness of integrating mobile technology into language education, highlighting the role of the CAKE app in improving student pronunciation and engagement. These findings suggest that such technological tools can significantly improve language learning outcomes and should be considered for wider educational use.

Abstract

This research investigates the connection between anxiety and English-speaking proficiency among eleventh-grade students at SMA N 1 Singaraja. The objectives of the study are to (1) ascertain the presence of a correlation between the students' anxiety levels and their English-speaking abilities, (2) identify the direction of this correlation, and (3) assess the strength of the correlation between these variables. Employing a correlational design, the study sampled 114 eleventh-grade students through simple random sampling to ensure a balanced representation across the school's three departments. A simple correlation method was used to analyze the data. The findings indicate a significant correlation between students' anxiety levels and their English-speaking competence, with a p-value of .000, which is below the standard significance level of 0.05. The correlation coefficient of -0.378 indicates a low but negative relationship between the variables. Practically, this means that as students' anxiety decreases, their English-speaking competence improves. These results underscore the importance of addressing anxiety in educational settings to enhance students' language performance potentially. Understanding the nature and impact of this relationship can help educators better support students in developing their English-speaking skills.

Abstract

Abstract: About the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the context of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL), numerous articles have discussed its impact, ranging from positive to negative effects. Although the majority of literature asserts that AI has a significantly positive impact, this research aims to evaluate and critically analyze these effects. The focus of this study is on the variables of critical thinking, the impact of AI on TEFL, and philosophical perspectives. This research employs a qualitative approach with document analysis methods, beginning with the selection of documents based on authenticity, credibility, representativeness, and meaning factors. The research findings support the positive effects of using AI in TEFL, emphasizing the improvement of students' English language skills in speaking and writing, particularly in terms of grammar. However, the research highlights the importance of specific conditions that must be met for these positive impacts to be achieved. A critical analysis of AI's impact on TEFL reflects the necessity of incorporating critical thinking in this research to avoid uncertainties. The study also explores philosophical views related to ontology, epistemology, and axiology. In the ontological perspective, AI aids students in understanding existence and reality in language learning, especially concerning vocabulary, phrases, and grammar. From an epistemological perspective, AI serves as a foundation for students' knowledge acquisition by presenting tailored learning materials and supporting a deep understanding of linguistics. Meanwhile, from the axiological perspective, the use of AI creates positive values such as accessibility, diversity, and equality in education.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the perception of vocational students towards foreign teachers (native speakers) and Indonesian nationals (non-native speakers) in teaching English. The research method used interviews with 10 students. The results of the study show that the majority of students have a positive perception of native-speaker teachers because of their pronunciation skills, classroom authenticity, cultural understanding, and motivation and confidence in speaking English. Meanwhile, students also positively rated non-native speaker teachers because they better understood the difficulties of learning English, made students comfortable asking questions and were able to explain the material well. This finding is expected to be an input in optimizing English learning in vocational colleges.

This study aims to determine the understanding, benefits, challenges, and application of generative AI (GenAI) in education. Mixed research methods were used, with surveys and interviews involving students from Jenderal Soedirman University and Widya Mandala University. Results showed that most students understood and recognized the benefits of Perplexity AI in lectures, despite concerns over ethics, human interaction, and technology management. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of in-depth learning about the principles and ethics of AI use as well as the need for clear standards to ensure the responsible use of AI in education.
