Abstract

This study was conducted to address the low learning outcomes of students in writing procedural texts, which are often caused using conventional and less engaging teaching methods. To overcome this issue, the Numbered Heads Together (NHT) cooperative learning model was implemented as a more interactive and collaborative alternative. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the NHT model on students’ learning outcomes in writing procedural texts for Grade VII students at MTs Al-Yusufiah Sidorejo. The research used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design and was carried out over four meetings. The participants consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which received instruction using the NHT model, and the control class, which was taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through tests, observations, and questionnaires, and analyzed using a t-test to determine differences between groups. The results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group’s performance, with a posttest mean score of 83.6 compared to 72.1 in the control group, and a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). Observation data also indicated that students in the experimental class were more active, collaborative, and engaged in the learning process. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the NHT cooperative learning model effectively enhances students’ writing performance, participation, and motivation in learning procedural texts.

Abstract

A higher education landscape that has been digitized encourages the need for an assessment method that is more interesting and effective. This background is in contrast to the classic problems, where the traditional assessment method often triggers anxiety and the lack of students’ engagement. As a solution, gamification, especially through platforms such as Quizizz, was proposed to transform the assessment experience. However, empirical research that has students’ specific perceptions in the context of English classes in higher education institutions is still limited. To address this gap, mixed-methods research with a case study approach is conducted. Data gathered through a survey questionnaire (quantitative) covering cognitive, conative, and affective aspects of perceptions, and semi-structured interviews (qualitative) from the students who use Quizizz. The key findings revealed that overall, the students’ perceptions of Quizizz were positive. This study emphasized that Quizizz is an effective assessment tool and is liked in the context of English class in higher education institutions. This study not only provides practical insight to educators on implementing more engaging assessments but also contributes to the theoretical understanding of the impact of gamification on students’ learning perceptions.

Abstract

This descriptive qualitative study explores seventh-grade students’ perceptions of using modified English songs to enhance vocabulary learning at SMPN 3 Minasatene, Indonesia. The research was conducted over four weeks, during which data were collected through semi-structured interviews with three students selected via purposive sampling. The interviews were analyzed thematically following the procedures of data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students viewed modified songs as engaging and helpful tools for learning vocabulary. Adapting song lyrics to match students’ proficiency levels helped them understand word meanings more easily, improve pronunciation, and apply new vocabulary in appropriate contexts. Moreover, the use of songs created a more enjoyable and motivating classroom environment, enhancing students’ confidence in learning English. These results suggest that integrating modified songs into vocabulary instruction can strengthen both linguistic and affective aspects of learning by providing meaningful, memorable, and student-centered language experiences. The study highlights the importance of creative instructional media for young learners and encourages teachers to incorporate modified songs as a practical approach to vocabulary development in English language classrooms.

Abstract

This study explores how persuasive elements in fast-food advertisements influence teenagers’ attitudes and perceptions. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, ten popular McDonald’s and KFC advertisements on YouTube released in the past five years were analyzed. Each ad featured celebrity collaborations, vibrant visuals, and strong audience engagement. Visual, verbal, and audio components were examined through a semiotic framework focusing on denotation, connotation, and underlying cultural meanings. The findings reveal that teenagers mostly respond to advertisements through emotional and visual cues rather than rational evaluation. Elements such as celebrity endorsements, catchy music, humor, bright color schemes, and limited time offers strongly shaped their attitudes toward fast-food brands. A smaller group of students considered product quality and value, but these instances were less common. Overall, the advertisements present fast-food consumption as part of a modern and desirable lifestyle, influencing how teenagers form preferences and social identities. The results highlight the need for stronger media literacy and educational programs that help young people critically assess persuasive messages in digital marketing and make more informed choices in their daily media consumption.

Abstract

In multilingual regions of Eastern Indonesia, English Language Teaching (ELT) materials that lack cultural relevance often fail to engage learners or reflect their linguistic realities. Local folklore offers a culturally grounded source for contextualizing ELT materials to enhance student learning and motivation. This study explores how local folklore can be integrated into ELT materials and investigates students’ multilingual practices and perceptions within a folklore-based classroom. A qualitative case study was conducted with one English teacher and thirty-two students in a multilingual secondary school. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis, and analyzed thematically. Findings show that folklore-based ELT materials enhance engagement, support comprehension through culturally familiar narratives, and promote active participation. Students naturally employed translanguaging strategies to negotiate meaning and strengthen English learning. The integration of folklore also reinforced cultural identity and pride among learners. Overall, contextualizing ELT materials through local folklore proved highly effective in multilingual classrooms, fostering inclusivity, meaningful learning, and cultural awareness. These results highlight the importance of incorporating local narratives into ELT curricula to promote culturally sustaining pedagogy in linguistically diverse settings.

Abstract

Writing fluency is an important aspect of English learning, yet many EFL students struggle to produce continuous and coherent texts because of anxiety, limited vocabulary, and a strong focus on accuracy. This study aims to examine whether free writing activities can improve students’ writing fluency. A quasi-experimental design was used with two groups: an experimental group that received free writing treatment and a control group taught through conventional writing methods. Writing fluency was measured through pre- and post-tests focusing on speed, flow of ideas, and coherence. Data were analyzed using paired-sample and independent-sample t-tests. The results show that the experimental group made significant gains in writing fluency, producing longer and more connected texts, while the control group showed only slight improvement. These findings indicate that free writing is an effective strategy for reducing anxiety and encouraging continuous idea expression. Overall, the study highlights the value of fluency-oriented activities in strengthening students’ writing competence.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in distance learning at Universitas Terbuka (UT), with a particular focus on how ICT supports accessibility, flexibility, and learning quality, especially in 3T (remote, frontier, and disadvantaged) areas. The research used a qualitative case study approach conducted over three months, involving 20 participants consisting of students, lecturers, system administrators, and librarians. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, non-participatory observations, and documentation. The results show that Universitas Terbuka has effectively integrated various digital platforms, including MyUT, e-Campus, online tutorials, and digital libraries, enabling students to access academic services independently and flexibly. Online tutorials, webinars, and distance learning workshops have also helped strengthen student engagement and self-directed learning. However, the study found that limited internet connectivity and low ICT literacy remain major challenges in 3T regions, affecting participation and learning outcomes. The study concludes that while ICT integration significantly enhances the accessibility and flexibility of distance education at Universitas Terbuka, its overall success depends on the availability of stable digital infrastructure and continuous improvement of users’ technological competence. These findings highlight the importance of government and institutional collaboration in expanding digital access to ensure equitable distance learning opportunities across Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to (1) describe the intrinsic elements that build the novel Sunset Bersama Rosie by Tere Liye and (2) identify the educational values contained in the novel through a literary sociology perspective. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with an embedded case study design. The data consist of words, phrases, and sentences taken from the novel, collected through reading, note-taking, and literature study techniques. Data validity was ensured through theoretical triangulation, and the analysis employed a dialectical approach to relate literary structure with social reality. The findings show that Sunset Bersama Rosie revolves around the themes of love, compassion, and sacrifice. The story follows Tegar, the main character, who experiences deep emotional struggles following the Bali II bombing in 2005. The settings of Bali, Lombok, and Jakarta enrich the novel’s socio-cultural background. The analysis reveals several educational values reflected in the characters’ behavior and moral development, including the value of peace shown through forgiveness after tragedy, love illustrated in Tegar’s sincere devotion to family and friends, sacrifice embodied by Rosie’s willingness to prioritize others’ happiness, and responsibility demonstrated through the characters’ commitment to face challenges with integrity. These values highlight how the novel not only portrays emotional resilience but also promotes moral awareness and social empathy in readers.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of photographic image media on students’ poetry writing skills, aiming to determine whether visual-based learning can enhance creativity and writing performance. The research was conducted with 57 Grade VII students during the 2023/2024 academic year using a quasi-experimental design and a simple random sampling technique. The participants were divided into two groups: 30 students in the experimental class, who learned poetry writing through photographic image media, and 27 students in the control class, who received conventional instruction. Data were collected through pretests and posttests to measure students’ poetry writing skills. The results revealed that the experimental class achieved a higher average posttest score (73.17) compared to the control class (51.85). The improvement in the experimental group (57.35%) was considerably greater than in the control group (29.01%). Statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test indicated a significance value of 0.001, which is lower than the standard alpha level of 0.05. Therefore, the null hypothesis (H₀) was rejected, confirming that the use of photographic image media had a significant positive effect on students’ poetry writing skills. The findings suggest that photographic image media can be a powerful instructional tool for teaching poetry writing. By stimulating imagination and visual thinking, this medium helps students express emotions, select appropriate diction, and develop creative ideas more effectively. The study contributes to the field of language education by demonstrating the practical value of integrating visual learning aids to improve students’ engagement and achievement in poetry writing.

Abstract

This study investigates the design and implementation of an AI-based adaptive English as a Foreign Language (EFL) model for students with special educational needs (SEN) in a resource-constrained Indonesian special school. The research aimed to align adaptive technology with heterogeneous learner profiles and priority English competencies to enhance accessibility, engagement, and learning outcomes. A descriptive qualitative design with supportive quantitative elements was employed, combining classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with teachers and teaching assistants, analysis of individual education plans and curriculum documents, and learning analytics from an adaptive AI platform, collected across multiple SEN classes (N = 4 students and 3 teachers/assistants) over 16 weeks. The findings from the needs analysis confirmed substantial variation in cognitive levels, sensory modalities, and communication preferences, leading to the specification of target competencies in foundational vocabulary, basic oral interaction, and early literacy. The selected AI platform, configured according to Universal Design for Learning principles, delivered multimodal materials, adjustable difficulty, and locally meaningful scenarios within blended and station-rotation lesson structures. This architecture, organised into warm-up, AI-driven core tasks, and consolidation phases, was associated with increased on-task behaviour, more frequent oral participation, and higher completion rates of adaptive exercises. Learning analytics indicated progressive gains in accuracy and reductions in time-on-task, while enabling data-informed differentiation and strengthening teachers’ and assistants’ instructional efficacy. These results suggest that carefully localised and pedagogically orchestrated AI-based adaptive systems can support more inclusive and motivating EFL environments for SEN learners in low-resource, non-English-dominant contexts without displacing teacher professional judgement.
