Abstract

The advancement of digital technology is transforming educational practices worldwide. One instructional model reflecting this shift is Bloom’s Digital Taxonomy (BDT), which refer to Bloom’s cognitive framework through the integration of digital tools and tasks. Despite its potential, many vocational high school English teachers encounter challenges in applying BDT effectively due to varied digital proficiency and institutional limitations. The drawbacks of its implementation become the main issue which needs to be further investigated. This study aimed to see the proficiency level of Vocational High School English teachers in integrating technology into instructions based on BDT as well as the factors influencing Vocational School English teachers’ proficiency in integrating technology into instructions based on BDT framework. In order to obtain the result, the present study conducted an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design. This design was selected as it presents a comprehensive analysis of the methods in which quantitative results were extended and explained by the qualitative results. The data were collected from 20 English teachers across seven vocational schools through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that that most teachers more proficient at the “Applying” level (C3) of BDT, reflecting ability to use digital tools in instructional practices. Influencing factors included school facilities, curriculum requirements, digital training opportunities, teaching experience, and teacher collaboration. The study recommends future research to explore the integration of BDT and the TPACK framework using longitudinal methods, particularly within non-formal education contexts.

Abstract

English in vocational higher education is a compulsory subject in semester 1. In dealing with future career needs, presentation is provided in the Semester Learning Plan. In this study, students worked in groups to deliver presentations. This study aims to explore students' perceptions of learning English in presentation material by describing students' motivation, anxiety, and experiences. The researchers used a qualitative descriptive method. The participants of the study were all first-semester students at the Politeknik Negeri Banjarmasin who voluntarily responded to the questionnaire (79 students) and seven students who would represent those to be interviewed. The research instruments are a fifty-item question through Google Form and an interview guide for data triangulation. The results of this study showed that, in general, the students perceived group presentation positively. They have a very positive perception of motivation and a positive perception of presentation experience, although they are also anxious when preparing and delivering the presentation. The use of a project in the group presentation helped students collaborate, enhanced their motivation, and facilitated student-centered learning. Speaking anxiety of students was influenced by internal factors such as nervousness, which can interfere with supporting devices and situations in the classroom. All in all, students perceived positively the implementation of the presentation project to finish the presentation. The result of this research study is expected to be used in teaching and learning in the field of learning English as a foreign language and to encourage students to be more motivated and less anxious so that their speaking performance is better.

Abstract

This study investigates the intricate relationship between religious identity and English language learning at Indonesian Islamic boarding schools and contributes significantly to the knowledge of cultural sensitivity in teaching. Based on qualitative case study approaches in Pasuruan, East Java, Indonesia, the study investigates the role of religious identity in mediating language learning as well as challenges in providing culturally sensitive education. It is grounded in Intercultural Communication Theory and Identity Negotiation Theory to examine complex interactions between Islamic beliefs of learners and language acquisition. Through classroom observations and semi- structured interviews with eight participants (four teachers and four learners), the study examines the role of Islamic values in English language learning processes as well as the involvement of students in English lessons. Key research questions involved the place of religious identity in language acquisition, difficulties in culturally responsive teaching, and the structuring of pedagogical interventions that enhance language proficiency without diminishing cultural integrity. The findings emphasize the need for a more delicate approach to the teaching of languages that recognizes and respects students' religious and cultural identities. The study contributes to the overall scholarly literature in recommending a model that moves language learning as an active process of cultural negotiation and identity construction. It emphasizes the necessity of creating inclusive learning spaces that recognize students' diverse cultural experiences and enable them to grow linguistically.

Abstract

Using the Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, the main objective of this research was to ascertain whether the KWL strategy could improve students' reading comprehension of recount texts. 36 students from SMK Negeri 5 Denpasar's class X PH 3 were chosen at random to take part in the research. Questionnaires were used as secondary data for this study, while pre-test and post-test data were gathered as main data. The results indicated that only 4 students (11.11%) scored above the passing grade in the pre-test, while 32 students (88.89%) scored below it. Following the implementation of the KWL method in Cycle 1, the results of Post-Test 1 showed improvement, with 19 students (52.78%) achieving scores above the passing grade. Further progress was noted in Cycle 2, where 26 students (72.22%) scored above the passing grade. The mean score difference was 19.58 points between the pre-test and Post-Test 1, and 4.59 points between Post-Test 1 and Post-Test 2. These findings suggest that students’ reading comprehension of recount texts can be enhanced through the KWL method. Additionally, the results of the questionnaire indicated that most students felt the strategy was implemented effectively. They believed that the KWL strategy improved their understanding of the text’s main ideas, factual details, vocabulary, linguistic elements, text structure, and social functions. Furthermore, this strategy increased students’ reading motivation and self-esteem. Therefore, the KWL strategy proved to be a valuable approach for teaching reading comprehension, particularly about recount texts. Keywords: KWL Strategy, Reading Comprehension, Recount Text.

A plethora of studies envisaging English as a lingua franca has been provided in the literature. Studies examining the relationship between English as a lingua franca and English as a foreign language has been emerged sparking excitement among language practitioners. This conceptual paper endeavors to approach English as a lingua franca and English as a foreign language. Employing traditional literature review, this study provides an overview, structures argument, and provides context for new research using thematic discussion. This narrative literature review taps further into the application of English as a lingua franca in English as a foreign language classroom. A thought-provoking issue regarding the position of English as a lingua franca versus English as a foreign language has ignited considerable debate among scholars. Reflecting upon studies presented in this paper, it is summarized that the existence of English as a lingua franca does not replace English as a foreign language. This study also describes the activities that language instructors might consider in integrating English as a lingua franca in English as a foreign language classroom. This study offers unique contribution by offering pedagogical innovation that bridges the concept of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) and English as a Foreign Language (EFL).
