Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate how joyful learning strategies improve writing skills among extrovert and introverted students in the fourth semester of the English Department at one of the public universities in Banten province. The research question seeks to uncover variations in how extrovert and introvert students respond to joyful learning approaches in writing training. The study used a qualitative case study design, with eight subjects (four extroverts and four introverts) chosen by purposive sampling. The data collection methods included semi-structured interviews, observations of classes, and student reflective journals. Following the data collection, thematic analysis was applied. It was discovered that extrovert students prefer teaching methods that are more energetic, collaborative and allow for greater verbal expression, such as group writing games and peer dialogues. Introvert students, on the other hand, are far more engaged with individual reflective tasks like music-assisted writing and visual prompts. Nevertheless, both groups reported an increase in pleasure, a decrease in anxiety, and an enhancement of confidence with writing through the joyful learning methods employed. The study concludes that adapting the joyful learning strategies to fit personalities will enable writing instruction in EFL contexts to be more effective and more inclusive.

Abstract

This study investigates the beliefs and classroom practices of pre-service English teachers in integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into English for Specific Purposes (ESP) instruction through SPADA UNTIRTA, a locally developed online learning platform in Indonesia. Employing a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, the research combined quantitative data from 60 participants using a validated questionnaire and qualitative insights from interviews with 10 selected respondents. The findings reveal a strong belief among participants in the pedagogical value of ICT, particularly in fostering learner engagement, contextualizing ESP content, and supporting independent learning. However, the actual implementation of ICT in instructional practices remains limited. Barriers include insufficient digital literacy, lack of pedagogical training, inconsistent access to ICT tools, and underutilization of SPADA UNTIRTA due to technical and operational challenges. The study highlights a significant gap between positive perceptions and actual teaching practices, indicating the need for enhanced professional development and curriculum integration of ICT-based pedagogies. It concludes that effective ICT integration requires not only favorable teacher beliefs but also systemic support, including institutional policies, training programs, and adequate digital infrastructure. The study offers recommendations for teacher education institutions to reinforce the alignment between pedagogical beliefs and practice in the digital learning environment.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to find out the effect of using the visualization strategy on students’ reading comprehension in tenth grade at one senior high school in Serang City, Banten Province. This research used quasi-experimental design. The population in this research was all tenth grades students while the samples were from class X MIPA 4 as the experimental class and X MIPA 5 as the control class. The two classes were selected using purposive sampling. To obtain data, the researcher used pre-test and post-test as instruments consisting of 40 multiple choice items. The data obtained from both tests were analyzed using the T-test. The results of the post-test average scores show a significant increase between the pre-test and post-test. The average score in the pre-test of the experimental class is 60.5 while the control class got 59.5. In addition, the average score in the post-test experimental class is 80.33 while the control class is 72.00. The hypothesis tests reveal that sig. 2 tailed is 0.001 while the determined alpha (α) is 0.05 (5%). It means that sig. ≤ α or 0.001 ≤ 0.05. Therefore, it can be said that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus, the visualization strategy is effective on students' reading comprehension.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of the Gemini AI model as a "morphological engine" to enhance academic vocabulary acquisition among university students learning English as a foreign language. By employing a qualitative case study of 25 students, the research investigates the efficacy of "Lexical Deconstruction"—systematically breaking down complex Greco-Latinate terms into their constituent roots to bridge the gap between basic communication and scholarly proficiency. Results demonstrate that this AI-mediated workflow increases root retention by 65% and significantly reduces cognitive overload, particularly in STEM fields where jargon functions as a compound language. Crucially, the process of deconstructing and reintegrating vocabulary fostered a sense of "lexical ownership," leading to a 40% reduction in plagiarism compared to traditional translation methods. For teachers, this study offers a scalable, student-led framework to transform AI from a text generator into a cognitive scaffold that promotes linguistic autonomy. For researchers, it provides a methodological template for analyzing human-AI interaction through the lens of etymological genealogy. Ultimately, the findings suggest that mastering the recurring building blocks of English enables students to move from passive decoding to active participation in global academic discourse, ensuring intentionality and integrity in their scholarly voice.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine whether the students participating in the English Debating Club have better English-speaking skills after using the OME TV application. Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) was conducted by dividing sample into two groups of an experimental and a control groups. A pre-test and post-test were administered to both groups; however, the OME TV program was only used to treat the experimental group. There were 30 students chosen as the sample from the population, which included 50 members of the English Debating Club. The data was analyzed using t-test after the confirmation of the normality and homogeneity data fulfilment. The findings show that there is a significant difference between the experiment and control groups with a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.013 < 0.05. Accordingly, the OME TV application significantly raised students' speaking proficiency. This suggests that incorporating interactive digital media can improve language learning results.

Abstract

This study investigates how formative assessment and student self-reflection contribute to improving secondary EFL learners’ performance in writing procedure texts. Although procedure text has a clear generic structure—goal, materials, and sequenced steps—previous studies show that students often struggle with organizing instructions, using accurate imperative verbs, and maintaining logical coherence. To explore how instructional practices can address these challenges, this research employed a descriptive qualitative design involving a Grade 9 class at SMP Islam Al-Ishlah Bukittinggi. Data were collected through classroom observations, document analysis of students’ writing work, and semi-structured interviews with both the teacher and students. The findings indicate that formative assessment, delivered through written comments, oral clarification, modeling, and peer-review, provided continuous guidance has helped students identify and revise structural and linguistic weaknesses in their texts. Meanwhile, self-reflection enabled learners to evaluate their work more critically, internalize teacher feedback, and plan revisions more purposefully. Evidence from the writing work shows improvement in sequencing, verb accuracy, clarity of instructions, and completeness of materials. The study concludes that integrating formative assessment with reflective practices creates a mutually reinforcing writing environment that enhances genre awareness, metacognitive engagement, and overall writing quality.

Abstract

This study examines the classroom management practices for teaching English to young students at Mentari Primary School in Serang Regency. One English instructor and forty-six sixth-graders participated in classroom observations, interviews, and documentation as part of a qualitative descriptive design with a case study methodology. The five main facets of classroom management—organization, behavioral consideration, instructional tactics, social atmosphere, and physical arrangement—were the focus of the investigation, which followed Miles and Huberman analysis model. The results demonstrate the teacher's successful implementation of classroom management, with an overall average of 88.1%, classified as completely implemented. By using humor, clear guidelines, positive reinforcement, and a combination of Indonesian and English to promote comprehension, the instructor was able to establish a constructive, organized, and engaging learning environment. Direct interaction, differentiated assignments, and regular communication were used to address challenges including keeping students' attention and managing big class sizes. The study finds that effective classroom management for young students necessitates a combination of authority, empathy, and flexibility. These findings emphasize the need for collaborative rules, excellent teacher-student relationships, and engaging instructional methodologies to create a fun and disciplined English learning environment.
