Abstract

The present study aims to determine the impact of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool on ESL students’ writing skills in Saudi Arabia. A mixed-method approach was designed in this study. A t-test approach was used for the quantitative research. The mean of the pre-test was 51.8, while the mean of the post-test was 79.46. The significant difference in the scores highlighted the positive influential effect of the AI tools on the ESL students’ writing skills. A focus group interview of five students was conducted for the qualitative analysis. The focus group participants discussed the following codes: AI’s impact on content organization, grammar, and vocabulary, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the AI tools. The interview highlighted that AI tools benefited students’ learning by providing chances in writing patterns, their improvement, and their structures to show the flow of coherent patterns. There were also disparities in AI tool use, which included the possibility of coming up with content not being referred to as human-like, failure to recognize creativity, and capacity to cheat. This research can help future researchers and instructors explore how to use AI tools for writing effectively, enhancing the strengths and diminishing the possible weaknesses.

Abstract

Generic structure quality fulfilment of a narrative text draft gives benefits to be constructed as a qualified full paper. This research aims to reveal English college students’ mistakes in constructing proper narrative text generic structure drafts. The data is 45 students’ work. The students were ordered to construct a title and write a narrative draft that consisted of orientation, complications, and resolutions in the social problem area. The drafts were analyzed for linguistic fulfilment of those three parts of the generic structure. The finding of students’ mistakes in constructing the orientation draft proposed is unclear, and the subject’s identity is absent, as well as the absence of supporting information and the main problem statement. The students’ mistakes in constructing complications are proposing incoherent stories that are not related to orientation, jumbling stories, focusing on different figures with the orientation, giving over quantity of personal perspective, and the absence of conflict development. The students’ mistakes in constructing the resolution are writing only the conclusion and giving no solution. English teachers or lecturers are suggested to investigate and improve students’ linguistic backgrounds to be coherent with the narrative text before giving the writing training practice.

Abstract

In today’s rapidly evolving digital world, technologies remain essential to modern challenges. However, in Nigeria, these technologies have not gained the prominence they deserve, especially at the primary school level. This study examined the effectiveness of Roducate in Primary School Pupils’ English Language Outcomes in Ondo State, Nigeria. Three research questions were answered and two hypotheses were tested. A quasi-experimental and descriptive survey research design were adopted for the study. The population consisted of all primary school pupils and their teachers. Through purposive sampling, 45 pupils and 30 primary school teachers were selected. Pupils with access to mobile devices were placed in the experimental group and those without access on the control group. The research instruments were the Teachers’ Roducate Knowledge Questionnaire (TRKQ), r = 0.76, Level of Digital Competence Questionnaire (LDCQ), r = 0.79, and the Primary School Common Entrance Past Questions. Findings revealed that Roducate has a significant effect on pupils’ achievement in English language. Similarly, primary school teachers do not know about Roducate learning app. On the basis of these findings, the study recommends that there should be comprehensive teacher training programs focusing on building digital competence for primary school teachers.

Abstract

Critical thinking is essential for success in the 21st century, particularly in language learning. This study explores pre-service English language teachers’ (ELTs) perceptions and practices regarding critical thinking instruction in Indonesia. Through a qualitative case study approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with two pre-service ELTs from a private university in Yogyakarta. Thematic analysis revealed a rich tapestry of insights into the participants’ understanding of critical thinking, their perceived importance in language learning, and their willingness to integrate critical thinking into their teaching practices. The findings highlight the significance of critical thinking in language acquisition, as it empowers students to analyze complex information, evaluate diverse perspectives, and form informed judgments. Participants emphasized the need for incorporating critical thinking strategies into language teaching to enhance students’ cognitive abilities and facilitate deeper understanding. Nevertheless, the study also identified potential challenges, including the uneven distribution of critical thinking practices across the education system and the need for specialized teacher training to implement critical thinking instruction effectively. The study contributes to understanding pre-service ELTs’ perceptions and practices of critical thinking in Indonesia. It also provides valuable insights for teacher training programs, curriculum development, and future research investigating critical thinking instruction in English language teaching.

Abstract

It will be more reasonable for second language teachers to be more literate concerning the optimal internalization of proper technological learning platforms in their habitual classroom activities. Previous researchers believed that with the supportive endorsement of compatible technological-based learning tools, EFL learners are willing to showcase more proactive learning participation as they continually experience a higher degree of learning enjoyment. This small-scale library study aimed to investigate the beneficial values of applying Kahoot media in modern EFL teaching-learning contexts. To that end, the researcher plotted a thematic analysis approach in analyzing the previously generated findings from 30 previous Kahoot media journal articles. By releasing this action, more understandable research outcomes can be potentially obtained since the researcher clustered all these prior results into some identical research themes. Two major research findings were drawn: (1) Kahoot media enabled EFL learners to attain thorough foreign language mastery skills, and (2) EFL learners continually experienced more positive learning nuance by activating Kahoot media. Some pertinent recommendations and commendations were suggested for the significant advancement of forthcoming studies delving more profoundly into the utilities of technological-based learning media in various EFL classroom circumstances.

Abstract

The lack of student engagement greatly influences the implementation of the learning process. This is very important because it refers to the pre-service teacher’s ability to manage the class so that it runs effectively and involves all students. This study explores the strategies pre-service teachers use to increase student engagement. This research was designed with a case study approach. Four pre-service EFL teachers were selected as participants in the research. In collecting data, the researcher used semi-structured interview techniques and observations through video recordings of teaching carried out by each participant. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that there were six strategies used to increase student engagement during teaching practicum, including measuring student engagement, establishing good communication between pre-service teachers and students, balancing structure and student autonomy through cooperative learning methods, promoting digital media as an innovation in the learning process, providing evaluation questions, and increasing the engagement of students with exciting activities. This study concludes with pedagogical implications for how pre-service teachers can use strategies to increase student engagement in English learning during teaching practicum.
