Abstract

Vocabulary development has an important role in English language learning, especially in supporting reading comprehension and oral communication. This research tries to explore the impact of reading English on vocabulary mastery among students and learners in informal housing environments. Using a quantitative descriptive approach, data were collected from 53 participants through a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed via Google Forms. The questionnaire examined four key variables: interest in reading, reading comfort, vocabulary improvement, and motivation. The findings indicate that most students show high interest and comfort in reading English texts. A significant majority agreed that reading helps them learn and retain new vocabulary. Additionally, reading activities were found to enhance students’ motivation to engage further with English learning. These results support existing literature that extensive reading positively influences vocabulary acquisition. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of promoting English reading habits outside formal education environments. It is recommended that educators, parents, and communities provide accessible reading materials to foster vocabulary growth and language learning motivation among learners. By encouraging reading as a regular practice, even in informal settings, learners can develop a stronger foundation in vocabulary that benefits their overall English proficiency.

Abstract

This study explores informatics students' perceptions of the implementation of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) using a quantitative approach. Survey results presented in multiple tables highlight the critical importance of English language proficiency in the informatics field. Respondents consistently view English as essential for accessing global information and securing career opportunities in Information Technology (IT). Many students recognize that strong English proficiency enhances the promising career prospects in the informatics field. They rely on English for accessing technical literature and materials crucial to their studies, recognizing its broader role in facilitating research and international collaboration. Despite this recognition, practical engagement with English outside of formal classes is limited, although most find the existing English materials sufficient. Career readiness in terms of English proficiency varies among respondents, emphasizing the need for improved preparation for related exams and practical applications. In academic settings, English is pivotal for comprehending technical content and fostering interactions with peers and educators. However, challenges persist in understanding complex technical texts and adapting to academic writing standards in English. Recommendations from respondents include integrating more English-focused resources into curricula to better prepare students for the global demands of the IT industry. Overall, the surveys reveal a consensus on the necessity of enhancing English language skills for effective communication, academic success, and career advancement. English lecturers are encouraged to design ESP materials that are more aligned with the specific needs of informatics students.

Abstract

This study investigates the practice of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in Indonesia, focusing on three key dimensions: implementation, learning outcomes, and teacher literacy. In response to the evolving demands of 21st-century education, this research aims to explore how Indonesian educators integrate technology within pedagogical and content frameworks. Using a qualitative literature review method, the study analyzed 53 scholarly articles published between 2016 and 2024. The findings suggest that TPACK implementation in Indonesia shows growing trends, particularly in the contexts of online and blended learning. Teachers who effectively applied TPACK strategies reported improved student engagement, motivation, and academic performance. However, several challenges remain, including limited access to digital infrastructure, inconsistent professional training, and varying levels of TPACK literacy among educators. The study highlights that while the framework holds promise, its sustainable application requires systemic support through policy, training, and institutional readiness. These insights contribute to the discourse on digital pedagogy in developing contexts and emphasize the importance of enhancing teacher competencies to align with future education demands.
