Abstract

This study explores the use of scaffolding techniques in teaching English to young learners in primary schools in Kecamatan Tempe, Kabupaten Wajo. Using qualitative interviews with five teachers and several students from five schools, it identifies commonly used strategies like modeling, guided practice, interactive dialogue, and visual aids. While students responded positively—especially to visual and interactive methods—teachers faced challenges such as large class sizes, mixed proficiency levels, limited resources, and time constraints. The study concludes that scaffolding is effective, but teachers need more training and resources to optimize its use, highlighting implications for teacher development and classroom practice.

Abstract

This study explores code-switching among adult Spanish-speaking learners in an online ESL setting. Through qualitative observation and discourse analysis, eight functions were identified: specific topic of conversation, clarification and repetition, communicative efficiency, translation strategy, participation encouragement, identity expression, interjection, and quotation. Learners used Spanish to express culturally embedded ideas and resolve lexical gaps, while teachers facilitated understanding through targeted translation. References to Papá Noel and Reyes Magos highlight how switching reflects cultural pride and supports meaning-making. Findings suggest that code-switching enhances learner engagement, affirms identity, and fosters pedagogical clarity, making it a powerful tool in bilingual instruction.

Abstract

This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design to examine the effectiveness of deep learning technology integration in junior high school English reading instruction during the digital transformation era. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests involving 60 students divided into an experimental group using deep learning and a control group using conventional methods. Independent t-test and N-Gain analysis revealed a significant improvement in reading comprehension in the experimental group compared to the control group. These findings indicate that deep learning not only enhances learning outcomes but also fosters pedagogical transformation toward adaptive, data-driven learning, offering theoretical contributions to AI-based instructional models and practical implications for teachers in designing relevant learning strategies.

Abstract

This study investigates how government institutions use social media as a site of power negotiation in public policy communication. Employing a qualitative approach with Fairclough’s three-dimensional Critical Discourse Analysis and multimodal analysis, data were drawn from 80 purposively selected government account uploads over six months. Systematic coding and interpretive categorization reveal that institutions employ linguistic framing, persuasive rhetoric, and visual semiotics to legitimize authority, foster compliance, and shape public perception, while simultaneously encountering counter-discourses in community interactions. The findings demonstrate that institutional discourse on social media functions not only as policy dissemination but also as a dynamic arena of legitimacy, resistance, and trust-building. This research contributes theoretically to critical discourse studies by linking digital communication and institutional authority, and practically by offering insights for enhancing transparency and public participation in policy communication.

Abstract

This study explores the representation of cultural identity in contemporary English literature and its interpretation by young readers. Using a qualitative approach that combines narrative/textual analysis and reader response methods, data were drawn from three contemporary novels and semi-structured interviews with 20 readers aged 18–22, then analyzed through thematic coding and critical interpretation. The findings show that texts construct cultural identities through character portrayals, symbolic settings, and intercultural conflicts, while young readers negotiate these narratives by connecting them to personal experiences and social contexts. The study concludes that literary texts function as both cultural representation and dialogical spaces where readers actively construct meaning, contributing to the reconstruction of cultural identity. Theoretically, it enriches discussions on cultural representation and reader response, while practically highlighting the role of literature in education to foster intercultural understanding and critical awareness.

Abstract

This literature review explores how YouTube helps students improve their speaking skills, especially their pronunciation. It looks at 20 studies published between 2020 and 2025 and compares YouTube-based learning to more traditional teaching methods. The review also covers how YouTube affects other speaking aspects like fluency and vocabulary, and what students and teachers think about using it. Most of the studies showed that YouTube is helpful because it gives real-life examples, native speaker input, and interactive features that keep learners interested. Still, there are some things that haven’t been studied enough—like whether the improvements last over time, how students use YouTube on their own, and how comfortable they are with using technology. In the end, the review suggests that YouTube can be a great tool for learning if it’s used with the right support and teaching approach.

Abstract

This literature review critically examines the colonial roots and contemporary realities of English Language Teaching (ELT) in the Philippines. Using a qualitative, critical-interpretive approach grounded in decolonial and postcolonial frameworks, this study synthesizes research on language policy, sociocultural perceptions, and pedagogical reforms, such as Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE). Findings reveal that English remains dominant and cannot be easily displaced due to its colonial legacy and association with socioeconomic mobility. Despite MTB-MLE's potential to affirm linguistic diversity, challenges persist due to entrenched attitudes and limited resources. Emerging decolonial strategies, including translanguaging and culturally sustaining pedagogy, offer promising avenues but face institutional barriers. This review contributes to ongoing dialogues on linguistic justice and the reimagining of ELT toward more equitable and culturally responsive education in the Philippine context.
