Abstract

The status of English as an optional subject in the Indonesian primary school curriculum has created significant ambiguity for English for Young Learners (EYL) teachers. This policy uncertainty limits institutional support and curricular guidance, leaving many EYL teachers without a clear framework to effectively deliver English Language Teaching (ELT) at the primary level. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to examine the landscape of Teacher Professional Development (TPD) initiatives for EYL educators in Indonesia. Drawing from peer-reviewed journals, government documents, and educational reports published between 2020-2025, this review identifies key themes, challenges, and best practices in the professional development of EYL teachers. The findings reveal that while various TPD programs exist, many are fragmented, underfunded, or misaligned with the practical needs of teachers operating in contexts where English instruction lacks formal curricular status. This article highlights the urgent need for policy-informed, context-responsive TPD models to equip EYL teachers with the practical needs of teachers operating in contexts where English instruction lacks formal curricular status.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Gemini AI in teaching speaking skills to second-grade senior high school students in Bandung. The study aims to reveal the use of Gemini AI in teaching speaking abilities. The participants consisted of 24 students and one English teacher from one of the private high schools in Bandung; most of the students possessed an intermediate level of speaking proficiency. The study used Classroom action research for three three-cycle implementations. Each cycle consisted of planning, implementation, and evaluation, aiming to get betterment in implementing Gemini AI in teaching speaking. The instruments used in the study were an observation sheet and a researcher's journal in order to know the steps and the techniques used in implementing Gemini AI for teaching speaking in every cycle. Findings from this research demonstrate that Gemini AI can be used as a tool in speaking lessons, providing interactive, real-time feedback and practice opportunities. Even though the implementation faced some obstacles, there were always some improvements in every cycle, which led the teacher and students to make Gemini AI as an effective digital tool for enhancing students’ speaking skills. The significance of the study indicates that integrating AI in teaching speaking can provide individualized and interesting language practice. The use of artificial intelligence in teaching speaking also can enhance conventional teaching strategies. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on AI in education and provides practical implications for English language teaching, especially in enhancing students’ communicative competence.

Abstract

Character education in Indonesia is currently facing various challenges, especially due to the growing social dynamics influenced by global culture, which tends to overlook local cultural values. In this context, literary works, particularly poetry, play a vital role in conveying messages of local wisdom that deeply influence character development. The poem collection Ayat Sunyi by Emi Suy highlights the importance of values such as cooperation, tolerance, honesty, justice, wisdom, human-nature relations, and religiosity. Using a literary sociology approach and sociological theory, this study reveals that local wisdom values, as part of social morality, are strongly portrayed in the poems. The analysis shows that the poems not only depict harmony between humans and nature but also emphasize the role of women as guardians of cultural values and agrarian spirituality. These poems emphasize the importance of preserving cultural traditions that are now being marginalized, while also educating students to appreciate their culture, value life, and develop responsible character. Thus, the poems serve a significant role in shaping a better young generation by instilling values of local wisdom that nurture individuals to be caring, empathetic, and deeply rooted in national identity. The symbolism of Dewi Sri, the earth, and prayer in the poems provides a strong foundation for reinforcing character education, preparing Indonesia's Golden Generation to become individuals of noble character, empathy, and cultural integrity.

Abstract

Many university students continue to struggle with academic writing, albeit they have passed the supporting courses of language content and skills. Such a condition becomes paradoxical as the subjects of this research, the 7th-semester students of the English Education Department at UIN Salatiga in the academic year 2025, experience similar phenomena. The students encounter issues in all stages of academic writing, especially during the inventing stage, in which they have to understand the topic, brainstorm ideas, and develop an outline before continuing to the next stages of drafting, revising, and editing. The inventing stage becomes the focus, as it defines and directs the global aspect in writing before they can develop their ideas. This research tries to understand the students’ challenges during the inventing stage of academic writing, and simultaneously concludes their strategies in negotiating those issues. From the Focus Group Discussion with 144 students, the researcher found that students encounter several challenges during the process of writing in the inventing stages in the areas of self-efficacy and motivation, understanding assignments and topics, brainstorming and idea generation, and developing an outline and forming a working thesis. To respond those challenges, the students develop strategies such as formulating motivation and support, finding reference, free listing ideas, and making a mind map. This analysis can contribute to the practical knowledge for further discussion and support the improvement of academic writing in higher education.

Abstract

This study examines the role of children’s literature in Japanese language education, emphasizing its educational value and theoretical foundations. Children’s literature not only aids students in enhancing their vocabulary and grammar but also provides insights into the culture, traditions, morals, and social perspectives that shape Japanese society. The study explores how children’s literature can be utilized in Japanese language education, focusing on its educational benefits and theoretical background. The language used in children’s literature is concise yet expressive, allowing learners to naturally encounter new words, common expressions, and stylistic patterns within the context of the story. Furthermore, these stories stimulate imaginations and emotions, making the learning process more engaging. From an educational standpoint, children’s literature illustrates the strong connection between language, culture, and identity. It supports a student-centred approach, encouraging students to reflect, interpret, and take ownership of their learning. In contrast to traditional teaching materials that often emphasize grammar, children’s literature provides a more comprehensive learning experience by integrating language and culture within narratives. This allows learners to envision scenes and characters, helping them understand words and expressions in real-life contexts. This study aims to discuss the rationale for incorporating Japanese children’s literature into Japanese language education. Children’s literature enriches the learning experience by serving as a meaningful bridge between language and culture. It also promotes communication skills, cultural awareness, and autonomous learning.

Abstract

With the growing demands of the hospitality industry, English proficiency is becoming essential for workers to succeed. As the industry expands, vocational high school students in hotel management programs are eager to join the professional field. However, a recent study shows there is not an English course specifically tailored to their needs in hospitality, despite the curriculum’s recommendations to use student-focused materials. This research, therefore, is designed as a needs analysis, an important first step in developing English for Specific Purposes (ESP) courses, as outlined by Brown (2016). The study examines students' current English abilities in hospitality (Present Situation Analysis), compares them to industry requirements (Target Situation Analysis), identifies gaps, and explores student preferences for learning (Individual Differences and Classroom Learning Analysis). Findings indicate that hospitality students aim to improve their English skills, particularly in listening and speaking for front office, restaurant service, and housekeeping scenarios. However, their current proficiency falls short of meeting industry expectations in two of these three areas. Students also expressed preferences for task-based learning, role-play activities, a hands-on approach, video content, and small-group learning. The data includes interview excerpts, allowing future researchers to consider responses that may differ from the majority. This needs analysis highlights key areas to focus on when designing ESP materials that truly support students in meeting the demands of the hospitality industry.

Abstract

Integrating NLP into English language teaching transforms the classroom experience for educators and learners alike. Therefore, conducting a systematic review of current research is essential to identify gaps in the application of NLP within ELT. A review of the literature from 2010 to 2025 explores how Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) has been utilized to improve English Language Teaching (ELT), with particular attention to the types of NLP strategies applied, the specific language abilities addressed, the research methodologies employed, and the educational levels of the participants involved. Following the PRISMA model, 19 studies were selected from 590 retrieved across Scopus, ERIC, EBSCO, ScienceDirect, and ProQuest databases and analyzed using NVivo-14. The findings revealed that anchoring, reframing, and modeling were the most frequently applied NLP techniques in ELT, with reading comprehension being the most targeted language skill. Experimental research designs dominated the field, and university students were the primary participants studied. These results suggest that NLP techniques enhance learner engagement, motivation, and communication skills by creating dynamic and supportive learning environments. The study implies that educators and researchers can leverage NLP strategies to improve teaching effectiveness and learner outcomes in English language education. Further research is recommended to explore diverse participant groups and additional language skills to broaden NLP’s application in ELT contexts.

Abstract

Video games are becoming an important part of cultural diplomacy. They let countries show off their national identity and soft power around the world. In the past, Japan and Poland have utilized video games to spread their cultural values and get along better with other countries. For instance, Japan's "Cool Japan" campaign and Poland's smart gift of The Witcher series. With the debut of Black Myth: Wukong, an action RPG that combines Chinese mythology with modern gameplay, China has joined the trend. This study looks at nine scholarly papers from 2015 to 2024 that are listed in Scopus and Web of Science. It focuses on how video games are used in cultural diplomacy. The study examines the evolution of game-based cultural diplomacy globally through the analysis of research trends, significant figures, and notable works. The research examines the utilization of video games for diplomacy, nation branding, and cultural interaction, using Japan, Poland, and China as case studies. The results demonstrate that more and more people think that video games are a powerful and changing tool to influence people's thoughts, get people talking to each other around the world, and affect politics around the world. This study gives us vital information about how gaming, diplomacy, and soft power are becoming more and more intertwined. It also lets researchers and politicians see how video games can change international relations in the future.

Abstract

Traditional learning media such as textbooks and flashcards are still widely used in EFL classrooms in Taiwanese elementary schools, but they often fail to engage digital-native students. This research aims to describe the use and challenges of digital-based learning media, including games, songs, and videos, in enhancing student engagement in EFL learning. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to explore the effectiveness of these media. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to elementary school teachers in Taiwan. The results show that while digital-based media offer more interactive and engaging learning experiences, issues such as accessibility, technical difficulties, and student boredom still persist. The study concludes that integrating game-based, song-based, and video-based media can address these challenges and significantly improve student participation and learning outcomes in EFL classrooms.

Abstract

Effective speaking skills are crucial for academic success and future professional opportunities, making their development a key focus in educational settings. This research investigates the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique effectiveness in improving students’ speaking skills in giving and asking for opinions, addressing a significant need for practical cooperative learning strategies. This study used quantitative approach with quasi-experimental designs involving 68 eleventh-grade students in total at SMA Negeri 15 Semarang in the second semester of the 2023/2024 academic year, divided into two groups: an experimental group (n=35) and a control group (n=33). Both groups were given a pre-test, followed by treatments with three meetings in each. After the treatments, a post-test was administered to determine the effectiveness. Based on the data, the control group’s, taught using the group discussion achieved an average score of 72.36 and the experimental group, taught using the TPS techniqe, scored 86.17. The experimental group’s N-Gain score was 62.29, which is classified as "effective enough". The Sig. (2-tailed) on the Independent Sample T-test value of 0.000 <0.05 shows the TPS technique has improved the students’ speaking ability, particularly in giving and asking opinions at a high level. These findings confirm that the TPS technique can substantially enhance students’ speaking skills, particularly in giving and asking for opinions, fostering a more interactive and encouraging active participation in the EFL classroom.
