Abstract

A great number of studies researching the incorporation of AI into English language teaching have grown significantly within the last five years. Nevertheless, to date, limited studies have been found to specifically review studies regarding AI integration in English language teaching. To fill the gap, this meta-synthesis study aims at presenting a summary of qualitative literature exploring how AI is integrated in English language teaching. Sixteen out of forty-seven articles were selected from various reputable databases as well as peer-reviewed journals (i.e., Scopus indexed) including Taylor & Francis, Science Direct, Wiley, Emerald, and ProQuest. Only qualitative data were processed and analysed thematically. Findings revealed some emerging themes: 1) student and teacher’s views towards AI integration in ELT, 2) benefits and drawbacks of AI integration in ELT, and 3) the role of AI for language skill improvement. In addition, the study shed light on several research topics recommended for further research.

Abstract

Writing an abstract in a research article is very important. The existence of abstract is compulsory in a research article. It is a research summary that must be attached and presented with the article. This study aims to identify moves and the most common pattern in RA abstracts in linguistic and language journals with different quartiles level. By using descriptive qualitative method, eighty RA abstracts of linguistic and language education journals with different quartile level were extracted from eight journals. The result finding; 1) Move 2 (Aim/Purpose) exists in seventy RA abstracts, Move 3 (Method) is present in sixty two RA abstracts, and Move 4 (Finding/Result) appears in Seventy Eight RA abstracts. In contrast, Move 1 (Introduction) is found in only 50 RA abstracts, and Move 5 (Conclusion) appears in 31 RA abstracts. 2) Q1 journal have the most frequent move, indicating a more comprehensive and detailed structure in their abstracts. In contrast, journals in lower quartiles, such as Q3 and Q4, often feature abstracts with fewer moves. As this study focuses only on the rhetorical move and pattern of RA abstract in field of linguistic and language journal with different quartile level, future research should conduct a comparative study and language features of the RA abstract in the field of across discipline with different quartile level.

Abstract

In the digital era, integrating technology into education is essential for preparing future-ready educators. This qualitative case study explores how pre-service teachers experience and implement digital tools in instructional settings. It focuses on their successes, challenges, and the pedagogical strategies they employ. Drawing on the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework and experiential learning theory, the study involved 15 pre-service teachers from a university in Semarang. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that pre-service teachers primarily used technology to manage classrooms and engage students—for example, using interactive platforms like Kahoot! to maintain attention and assess understanding in real time. These tools influenced student reactions and led teachers to adapt their instructional strategies dynamically. While digital tools were seen as effective for promoting engagement and understanding, participants faced challenges related to digital literacy, infrastructure limitations, and a lack of mentorship. Technology-based assessment and proactive engagement strategies were less frequently applied, highlighting a gap between theoretical training and classroom practice. The results suggest that teacher education programs should provide more hands-on, guided experiences, reflective practices, and institutional support to develop digital teaching competence. This study contributes to ongoing efforts to align teacher training with the realities of technology-enhanced learning environments

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of a Deep Learning-based interactive e-module on the motivation of primary school students learning English as a foreign language. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group was employed, involving 60 fifth-grade students in West Java, Indonesia. The experimental group (n=30) used the Deep Learning-based module, while the control group (n=30) received traditional instruction. Motivation levels were measured using a validated questionnaire based on Self-Determination Theory, supported by interviews and classroom observations for qualitative insight. Quantitative analysis revealed a statistically significant increase in motivation among students in the experimental group (t(29) = 10.45, p < 0.001, d = 2.17), whereas the control group showed no significant change. Thematic analysis of interviews and observations confirmed higher engagement, enjoyment, and autonomy among students using the e-module. These findings demonstrate that Deep Learning technology, when applied thoughtfully, can create personalized, responsive learning experiences that foster intrinsic motivation in young learners. This study contributes to the limited body of research on AI-powered educational interventions at the primary level and offers practical implications for digital learning design in EFL contexts. Future research is recommended to explore long-term effects and broader implementation across diverse educational settings.

Abstract

Greater access to learning sources resulting from the advancement of the Internet and information technology helps students regulate their learning habits and achieve specific learning targets, including English language learning. This study analyzed English self-efficacy and technology-assisted self-regulated learning strategies among undergraduate students and how the two variables correlate. A total of 510 undergraduate students at Sam Ratulangi University, Indonesia, participated in the study. Two sets of questionnaires, including the Questionnaire of English Self-Efficacy (QESE) and the Technology-Based Self-Regulated Learning Strategy Questionnaire (TSRLQ), were administered in data collection. The data analyses included descriptive statistics and bivariate Pearson correlation calculations. This study found a heterogeneous profile of English self-efficacy and technology-assisted SRL. Meanwhile, the Pearson correlation calculation results revealed that English self-efficacy was significantly correlated with technology-assisted SRL in a positive direction. Thus, this study suggests that more efficacious students are more likely to apply technology-assisted SRL in their English language learning.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of English-medium Instruction (EMI) in higher education worldwide presents opportunities and challenges, particularly in non-English-s contexts. While EMI aims to enhance global competitiveness, academic quality, and intercultural awareness, its implementation often faces language-related barriers affecting both students and instructors. This study investigated the language-related teaching strategies international EMI teachers employed to facilitate content delivery and enhance student comprehension. Specifically, it explored the instructional and regulative discourse strategies utilized in EMI classrooms. A case study approach was employed, focusing on two international EMI teachers at a private university in Indonesia. Data were collected through classroom observations, stimulated recall, and semi-structured interviews. Findings reveal that teachers used various instructional strategies, including demonstrations, visual aids, synonyms, and code-switching, to bridge linguistic gaps and support content comprehension. Regulative strategies such as building rapport and checking comprehension were also frequently utilized to create an inclusive learning environment. Teachers perceived these strategies as effective in mitigating language-related barriers and fostering engagement among students with varying English proficiency levels. This study underscores the importance of language awareness in EMI pedagogy and offers insights into effective teaching strategies for non-language faculty delivering content in English.

Abstract

This research assessed how digital storytelling (DST) could enhance the junior high school students' oral proficiency skills in speaking the English language in the context of Islamic schooling in Indonesia. The research deployed a quasi – experimental design within the context of an Islamic school setting. The sample consisted of 64 students. 31 students comprised the experimental class who received instruction through the use of DST while 33 students made the control class who were taught using traditional instructional techniques. The data was collected through administered tests which assessed the students' speaking through various parameters. To understand the progress of the student's scores within the two groups the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was utilized. It was found out that all of the students improved in their speaking skills but the experimental group had higher scores. This shows DST has a high positive effect on students’ oral performance. DST gave positive impact on student's enthusiasm, teamwork and confidence in using the language was also noted. The students’ level of DST speaking discipline was high which suggests the technique is useful. The implications of this study point towards DST to strengthen the students’ motivation, performance and speaking competency.

Abstract

The current study investigates the formative assessment literacy of Indonesian pre-service English teachers by adopting a sequential mixed-method approach. The survey data revealed that participants had a moderate level of formative assessment literacy (M = 3.02), with varying scores across three components. The conceptual domain scored the highest (M = 3.12), followed by the socio-emotional domain (M = 2.98) and the practical domain (M = 2.96). The second finding gained from the second part of the survey and from interview sessions indicated five different challenges encountered by the participants in practicing formative assessment. The issues raised by the participants were related to limited support from their institution, their heavy teaching workload, lack of digital literacy, their students’ low learning motivation, and the participants’ inadequate assessment skills and knowledge. Although this study has several limitations, it provides several implications, such as the urgency of providing training for teachers to help them improve their assessment literacy.

Abstract

Oral corrective feedback is an essential part in learning English as a foreign language. Teachers' beliefs about oral corrective feedback generally underlie their practices, but some studies showed that sometimes there is a mismatch between teachers' beliefs and actual practices. Previous studies also found that students with different grades have different expectations about oral corrective feedback, making it important for teachers to understand it. Based on the previous findings, this study aimed to examine teachers’ beliefs and practices of oral corrective feedback for students across different grades. This study was a qualitative study, with data collection techniques using interviews and observations. The data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The participants in this study were two early secondary school English teachers located in Yogyakarta. The findings showed that teachers have a positive belief in the importance of oral corrective feedback. Teachers' beliefs about the oral corrective feedback timing match their actual practices. However, there was a mismatch between the strategies believed by grade 7 teachers and actual practices. It showed that teachers adjusted their oral corrective feedback strategies to the real conditions. Overall, the teachers’ practices produced positive uptake from students. This finding emphasized the importance of flexibility in the oral corrective feedback application according to the classroom context.

Abstract

This study examines how language operates as a tool of manipulation in academic grooming within Indonesian higher education. Using a qualitative forensic-linguistic approach integrating Critical Discourse Analysis, Speech Act Theory, and Thematic Analysis, it analyses approximately 850 utterances from authentic lecturer–student communications, supplemented by interviews with six victims and one expert. The findings show that grooming unfolds through three interrelated linguistic mechanisms, affective persuasion, instrumental exploitation, and symbolic control, that gradually transform professional discourse into emotional dependency and compliance. Affective and instrumental lexis dominates grooming communication (71%), embedding coercion within rhetoric of care, mentorship, and professionalism, and producing discursive entrapment in which victims internalise control as trust. The study proposes a Forensic Linguistic Indicator Model (FLIM) for the early detection of grooming language, conceptualising academic grooming as institutionalised linguistic coercion and offering policy-relevant insights for safeguarding and prevention in higher education.
