Abstract

This qualitative research investigates the various factors that influence student engagement in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) learning environments. By conducting semi-structured interviews with seven non-English major students at a private university in Southeast Sulawesi, the study offers in-depth insights into the experiences and perceptions of these students. The collected data were meticulously analyzed using thematic analysis, with Kahu's (2013) theoretical framework serving as a reference point for interpreting the findings. The research revealed that a significant number of students who attended English for Economics classes felt highly engaged in their learning process. Key factors contributing to this engagement included a strong interest in the course content and a high level of self-confidence among students. Additionally, the implementation of interactive teaching methods, the integration of technology in the classroom, and the relevance of the course content were found to be critical in enhancing student engagement. The roles of both students and teachers, characterized by effective interactions and collaborative efforts, also emerged as vital components. Furthermore, the study highlighted the importance of a well-structured classroom setting in fostering a conducive learning environment. These findings underscore the multifaceted nature of student engagement, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive approach that addresses both internal and external factors.

Abstract

This narrative review investigates the benefits of pair work activities in EFL speaking classes. The data for this study were drawn from 25 selected articles published between 2013 and 2023. The research explores four main themes related to pair work in EFL speaking: language development through practice, social and emotional support in learning environments, active engagement and participative learning, and effective pedagogical strategies. The conclusions drawn from the 25 articles reveal several benefits of pair work activities, including language development through practice (enhancing speaking proficiency and facilitating vocabulary acquisition), social and emotional support in learning environments (encouraging peer feedback, creating a supportive learning environment, reducing anxiety, and increasing confidence), active engagement and participative learning (promoting active student engagement and increasing participative learning), and effective pedagogical strategies (the teacher's role in enhancing pair work effectiveness and effective task structuring). The research suggests that integrating pair work activities into EFL speaking instruction can significantly improve language learning outcomes. Furthermore, EFL teachers can effectively utilize pair work to enhance students' speaking abilities, boost their confidence, and improve overall language proficiency. Keywords: benefits of pair work; collaborative learning; EFL speaking; language development.

Abstract

This study aims to explore and narrate the culture shock experienced by the first author, an Indonesian EFL exchange student, during an academic exchange program at a Midwestern university in the United States. Using an autoethnographic approach, data were collected from the author's personal reflections, journals, and social media archives, then analyzed through a narrative method to present the lived experiences in a clear, chronological structure. The findings reveal that the first author experienced a range of emotions throughout all four stages of culture shock: honeymoon, frustration, adjustment, and adaptation. Each stage had a notable impact on his academic performance, emotional well-being, and motivation to engage with the host university’s academic and social environments. The study highlights the importance of cultural readiness and emotional resilience for exchange students. It also recommends that higher education institutions strengthen orientation programs and offer more holistic, culturally responsive support systems to help students navigate cross-cultural transitions effectively.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the level of English teachers' professionalism in integrating interactive media in learning and to identify the factors that influence its implementation in schools. A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, involving a sample of 50 English teachers from various education levels. The research instrument consisted of a Likert-scale questionnaire that measured aspects of teacher professionalism, frequency of interactive media use, and supporting or inhibiting factors. The results showed that the overall mean score for teacher professionalism was 3.65 with a standard deviation of 0.90. The highest score was found in the student engagement indicator (mean = 3.80; SD = 0.97), and the lowest was in the frequency of media use (mean = 3.42; SD = 0.86). Regarding factors influencing media use, the highest mean scores were in perceived learning effectiveness (mean = 4.28; SD = 0.78), student interest (mean = 4.24; SD = 0.87), and teachers' motivation for self-development (mean = 4.20; SD = 0.95). Meanwhile, training support from schools showed the lowest score (mean = 3.98; SD = 1.06), indicating the need for stronger institutional support. In conclusion, while teachers show a positive attitude toward interactive media, its optimal integration is still limited by training, facilities, and time management constraints.‎   Keywords:‎ Teacher Professionalism, Interactive Media, English Language Learning
