Abstract

This study investigates the effect of animated storybooks on vocabulary achievement among B Class students of TK Islam Al Azhar 4 Samarinda in the 2024/2025 academic year. Employing a quasi-experimental design, 86 students were divided into an experimental group (n=43) and a control group (n=43). The experimental group received vocabulary instruction through animated storybooks, while the control group was taught using traditional methods. Data were collected through a vocabulary matching test and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U Test due to the non-normal distribution of data. The results showed a significant difference in vocabulary achievement between the two groups (p = 0.004), with the experimental group scoring higher. This suggests that animated storybooks are an effective medium to enhance vocabulary learning among young learners.

Abstract

This study explored how Indonesian EFL students with different levels of short-form video (SFV) consumption perceived its impact on their English language proficiency. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, three participants were selected based on their daily duration of English-language SFV usage. Data were collected through interviews, 7-day learning logs, and reflective journals. Findings indicated that all participants reported improvements in listening, speaking, and vocabulary, particularly through repeated exposure to authentic speech and mimicry. However, reading and writing development remained limited. Crucially, the study found that the quality of engagement—such as intentional mimicry, vocabulary tracking, and content curation—was more influential than the amount of time spent watching. Participants who used SFVs strategically experienced greater gains than those who consumed them passively. Additionally, attention span and distraction emerged as factors affecting learning depth, especially in high-exposure contexts. The study concluded that SFVs can support informal language learning when used purposefully and in moderation.

Abstract

The present study was aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between daily X (Twitter) English usage and vocabulary mastery. The objective was to find out (1) the intensity of students’ daily X (Twitter) English usage; (2) the students’ vocabulary mastery; (3) the relationship between the intensity of students’ daily X (Twitter) English use and students’ vocabulary mastery. The design of the study was correlational quantitative research. The population was eleventh grade students, and the sample was 141 students who were using X (Twitter). The instruments of this study were a questionnaire and a multiple choice test. The data were analyzed by using Spearman Rank on SPSS 23. The finding of this study was (1) the intensity of students’ daily X (Twitter) English use was categorized as low, with the mean score 57.68; (2) the vocabulary mastery of students was categorized as excellent, with the mean score 81.6140; (3) the correlation correlation coefficient value was 0.101. In addition, p-value was 0.231 (>0.05). It indicated that there was no significant relationship between daily X (Twitter) English use and the vocabulary mastery of eleventh grade students at SMAN 1 Samarinda. The results of this study implied that students did not consider X (Twitter) as a vocabulary learning tool. In addition, students may have an excellent vocabulary without using X (Twitter). This study can be useful for future researchers as they can further investigate what are the factors of students’ English vocabulary mastery. Furthermore, they can also conduct an experimental study using the same subject and objective of the current study.

Abstract

Reporting verbs are essential in academic writing because they help convey the writer's stance, attitude, and relationship with the reader, as highlighted in corpus-based research. This research was a corpus-based study that investigated the use of reporting verbs in applied linguistics journal articles published between 2020 and 2024. The main objectives were to identify the categories of reporting verbs used in the articles and determine the most frequently used categories within this period. This research applied a corpus linguistic technique, which used quantitative methods. The study specifically focuses on the frequency of reporting verbs in journal articles published within the selected time period. A corpus of 316 articles from the Indonesian Journal of Applied Linguistics was used as a data for the analysis. The data was processed using the software tool AntConc 4.2.0, which allowed for a detailed examination of the reporting verb frequencies and their categorization. The results revealed that Discourse Acts were the most frequently used reporting verbs, followed by Research Acts and Cognition Acts. Within the Discourse Acts category, the "certainty" subcategory emerged as the most prevalent.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the level of ChatGPT usage and the attitudes of English Department students in Samarinda toward its role in academic learning. The research is grounded in the rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education, particularly the increasing use of ChatGPT. A descriptive quantitative method was employed, using a validated questionnaire adapted from Sallam et al. (2024) which was distributed to 192 students from A University, B University, and C University. The data were analyzed using mean score calculations to determine the students’ level of usage and attitudes. The results showed that the majority of students (64.58%) used ChatGPT at a moderate level, indicating regular but not intensive engagement with the tool. In terms of attitudes, the majority of students (55.21%) demonstrated a neutral stance. Students generally found ChatGPT accessible and useful, although some expressed concerns related to academic integrity, data privacy, and overreliance on AI tools. In conclusion, English Department students in Samarinda are incorporating ChatGPT into their academic routines with both interest and caution. While they acknowledge its practical benefits, they also maintain a balanced perspective on its potential risks. These findings highlight the importance of promoting digital literacy and ethical awareness in the use of AI-based educational tools.

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of technology in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) assessment process at a Vocational High School in Samarinda. Although the role of technology in education is increasing, its application in EFL assessment is still minimal in this context. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews involving EFL teachers. There are three research questions underlying this study, the first is what are technology tools used in the EFL assessment process in a Vocational High School in Samarinda? the second is How is the technology used by the English Teachers of a Vocational High School in Samarinda? and the last is, What are the challenges in using technology for the EFL assessment process? This study reveals that English teachers at a Vocational High School in Samarinda have integrated various technological tools in EFL assessment, especially post-distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Tools such as Google Forms, Duolingo, Google Classroom, Quizizz, and Kahoot are widely used although most teachers have only acquired these skills through self-learning. The stages carried out by teachers in using digital technology tools in the assessment process are first preparation and drafting of online exam questions, second online assessment strategies and methods, third fraud monitoring and prevention, and finally exam materials and topics. The main challenges faced include limited internet access, unstable Wi-Fi networks in schools, and students' low digital literacy on the platforms used. Nevertheless, teachers are adapting and working towards effective assessment.

Abstract

English plays a pivotal role as a global language and is taught as a compulsory subject in Indonesia. However, students’ low enthusiasm toward learning English remains a critical concern, particularly at the junior high school level. Motivation is widely recognized as a major determinant of success in second or foreign language learning. This study aims to investigate the correlation between students’ motivation and their English language achievement at a Junior High School in Samarinda. Employing a quantitative correlational method, the study involved 170 ninth-grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a motivation questionnaire adapted from Gardner’s Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB) and English achievement scores provided by the school. Validity and reliability tests were conducted prior to data collection, with 11 out of 20 questionnaire items declared valid (r > 0.300) and Cronbach’s Alpha indicating reliable consistency (α = 0.701). Descriptive statistics revealed that the majority of students showed moderate motivation (37.1%) and high average English scores (M = 91.94). However, the results of the Spearman rank correlation showed a weak and negative correlation (r = -0.025, p = 0.747) between students’ motivation and English achievement. These findings suggest that although motivation exists, it is not a strong predictor of performance in this context. Other influencing factors such as teaching quality, parental involvement, and prior exposure to English may play a more significant role. This study highlights the need for a multifaceted approach in language teaching, addressing both motivational and environmental aspects to improve learning outcomes.

Abstract

COVID-19 brings a deep impact on the field of education, especially by pushing the wide use of digital technology in learning. When face-to-face learning returned, it became important to see whether teachers’ experiences with technology during the pandemic affected their views and decisions about using technology after the pandemic. Many studies have looked at teachers’ views during and after the pandemic, but only a few have explored how English teachers view these experiences and how it influenced their decisions to keep or change their use of technology especially in schools located outside urban centers or in areas with limited resources. This research focused on exploring the views of English teachers on using digital technology during and after the COVID-19 pandemic at a semi-rural public Junior High School in East Kalimantan. This study used a descriptive qualitative method with in-depth interviews for data collection. The results showed that before the pandemic, most teachers only used technology as a supporting tool. After the pandemic ended and learning returned to the classroom, teachers tend to continue the use of technology because they found it helpful and had become accustomed to it, although the use of technology after pandemic less frequent compared to during the pandemic.

Abstract

This study aimed to describe the problems faced by university students in English speaking classes across different proficiency levels at one of the universities in East Kalimantan and their strategies to overcome the problems. This research used a quantitative survey method. The data was collected using a questionnaire divided into two sections, speaking problems and strategies, shared using Google Forms. 85 of 100 students answered the questionnaire. The findings revealed that the most prevalent problems were affective-related (68.7%) and linguistic-related (62.0%). Specifically, 83.5% of students reported fear of making mistakes, 82.4% struggled with overuse of their mother tongue, and 75.3% faced insufficient grammar knowledge. Beginner students exhibited the highest frequency of issues, with 100% acknowledging fear of mistakes, while intermediate and advanced students also reported significant affective and linguistic challenges, albeit at slightly lower rates (e.g., 86% and 74% for fear of mistakes, respectively). Coping strategies varied by proficiency level: beginners relied heavily on passive methods like watching movies (75%), while intermediate students incorporated more interactive strategies, such as peer practice (37.9%). Advanced learners demonstrated balanced strategies, including regular speaking practice (52.2%) and peer interaction (60.9%). The study results underline the need for tailored pedagogical interventions to support students’ emotional readiness and language competence, emphasizing the importance of strategic practice environments and personalized feedback.
