Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Word Association Strategy in improving the vocabulary mastery of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 4 Palu. Vocabulary learning in the classroom was dominated by conventional techniques that provided limited opportunities for students to develop meaningful word understanding and usage. To address this issue, the study employed a quantitative method using a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups. The population consisted of all eighth-grade students in the 2025/2026 academic year, from which two classes (VIII Cempedak and VIII Manggis) were selected through cluster random sampling. Class VIII Cempedak as the experimental group (n = 32) was taught using the Word Association Strategy, while Class VIII Manggis as the control group (n = 30) was taught using conventional methods. The study focused on students’ vocabulary mastery of word meaning and usage, particularly common nouns, action verbs, and descriptive adjectives. Data were collected through vocabulary tests and analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent samples t-test at the 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that the experimental group’s mean score increased from 53.46 in the pre-test to 81.85 in the post-test, while the control group improved from 55.04 to 69.29. The t-test result revealed that the t-count (5.50) was higher than the t-table value (1.671), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. These findings demonstrate that the Word Association Strategy effectively enhances students’ vocabulary mastery by facilitating meaningful word connections. Practically, English teachers can incorporate structured word association activities into regular vocabulary instruction to promote deeper word retention and more active student engagement in junior high school classrooms.

Abstract

Students’ motivation to write in English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom is often limited by difficulties in vocabulary, grammar, idea development, and text organization. To address this issue, Project-Based Learning (PjBL) integrated with digital tools can be used to create more engaging and meaningful writing activities. This study was conducted at SMAN 6 Karawang and involved twelve eleventh-grade students who participated in a narrative writing project. This study employed a qualitative case study design, with data collected through open-ended questionnaires, classroom observations, teacher feedback, and students’ narrative writing projects. n the project, Padlet was used to support students’ narrative writing, sharing, and feedback activities, while Canva was used to design the poster or cover as the visual product of the project. The findings show that the integration of PjBL with digital tools increased students’ motivation to practice writing in English. The most significant motivational changes experienced by students were increased confidence in expressing ideas, greater enjoyment in writing activities, stronger creativity through visual design, and higher willingness to revise their writing after receiving feedback. Canva helped students design visual posters or covers related to their narrative projects, while Padlet encouraged writing practice, interaction, appreciation, and timely feedback from the teacher and peers. Although some students faced technical challenges, especially those with limited digital design skills, the overall learning process helped students become more engaged, autonomous, and motivated to write. Therefore, this study suggests that technology-integrated PjBL can support students’ motivation in EFL narrative writing by combining creativity, collaboration, and meaningful feedback.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is used in software engineering classrooms and how it can foster students’ English-speaking competence. This research employed a qualitative descriptive designing involving 40 eleventh-grade students from the Software Engineering (Rekayasa Perangkat Lunak) program and one English teacher at a vocational high school in Garut, Indonesia.  Data were collected through classroom observations involving 40 students and one teacher, followed by semi-structured interviews with six selected students and the teacher. The findings revealed that PjBL was used through systematic stages, including starting with essential question, designing a project, scheduling, monitoring, assessing outcomes, and evaluating the experiences. The analysis reveals that PjBL functioned as a discourse-construction pedagogy, fostering students’ cohesion through the use of linking devices and improving coherence through logical organization of ideas during project presentations. Although some students still relied on memorization and faced vocabulary limitations and anxiety, continuous teacher scaffolding and feedback supported their gradual improvement. Thus, PjBL can foster students’ English-speaking competence by systematically strengthening discourse competence. However, as this study was limited to one vocational classroom with a small sample and focused only on discourse competence, further research with larger and more diverse participants and broader speaking competence aspects is needed to examine the wider applicability and long-term impact of PjBL.

Abstract

This qualitative content analysis examines gender representation in Indonesian government-mandated English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks for primary schools to assess alignment between national gender equality policies and pedagogical materials. Findings reveal significant divergence from international norms. Character distribution showed female predominance (57% vs. 43% male) with female protagonist, reversing typical 60-70% male dominance documented in ELT materials globally. Linguistic analysis demonstrated balanced pronoun usage (48% masculine, 52% feminine) with zero generic masculine, male-first ordering, or gendered adjectives. Activity representation showed minimal stereotyping with counter-stereotypical examples, though limited to domestic and school contexts. Occupational representation proved critically limited, depicting only one professional role (male teacher), creating symbolic void in career diversity exposure. The textbook successfully translates Kurikulum Merdeka gender equality policies into content, achieving neutrality through bias elimination but not transformation through active norm challenge. The results place this material at the top of the global ELT textbook rankings for linguistic visibility and equality, while exposing the ongoing employment gap. Findings demonstrate compatibility between Islamic values and gender equality, contradicting assumptions about cultural barriers in Muslim-majority contexts. The occupational void represents critical intervention point during formative developmental years. Study contributes empirical evidence of policy-to-practice translation success and identifies actionable pathways for Indonesian educational material improvement.

Abstract

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is now widely integrated into language education, providing effective ways to assist learners' speaking practice in EFL classrooms. This research explores the possibility of applying AI chatbots as digital speaking partners to improve students’ speaking competence. A quantitative quasi-experimental design was used with 60 third-semester university students divided into an experimental and a control group. The study's experimental group used an AI-based chatbot to practice speaking, while the control group received traditional instruction. The students’ speaking performance was measured by using an analytic rubric that consisted of pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. The experimental group’s mean score on the pre-test was 80.50, and on the post-test, it increased to 85.07. In contrast, the control group had only improved from 79.47 to merely 79.83 on the two tests, respectively. The data was analyzed using an independent samples t-test, confirming a significant difference between the two groups (t = 3.241, p = 0.002), indicating that students who practiced speaking with AI chatbots demonstrated significantly greater improvement in their speaking performance compared to those receiving traditional instruction. These results reflect that utilizing AI chatbots in speaking practice has the potential to significantly improve EFL learners’ speaking proficiency by providing more opportunities for interactive practice.

Abstract

This study investigates the forms of English language exposure provided by parents at home, parents’ perceptions of its impact on young children’s English development, and the challenges they face in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed to 18 parents of children aged 4–6 years. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics for closed-ended questions and thematic analysis for open-ended responses. The findings reveal that English exposure at home is primarily delivered through multimodal activities, including watching videos, singing songs, reading storybooks, and engaging in simple conversations, with digital media especially YouTube as the dominant source. Most parents reported observing positive developments in their children’s English abilities, particularly in vocabulary recognition, pronunciation imitation, passive comprehension, and increased interest in English content. However, several challenges were identified, including parents’ limited English proficiency, time constraints, children’s fluctuating interest, and difficulties in selecting appropriate learning materials. These findings highlight the important role of the home environment in supporting early second language acquisition, particularly through informal and interaction-based exposure. The study contributes to the understanding of how home literacy environments function in EFL contexts and emphasizes the need for supporting parents in providing effective English exposure at home.

Abstract

This study investigates the semantic features employed in food and beverage advertisements published on Instagram. The study aims to understand how lexical choices, connotative strategies, and meaning relations are employed to construct brand image, elicit emotional resonance, and influence consumer preferences. Data were collected from ten official advertising posts of popular food and beverage brands that commonly appear on Indonesian users' feeds between January and June 2025. A descriptive qualitative analysis was conducted using frameworks for lexical, connotative, and relational semantics. The findings reveal a consistent pattern: advertisements combine denotative meanings to communicate product attributes, connotative meanings to invoke emotional associations, and relational meanings to assert cultural ties and social identity. These insights demonstrate that semantic strategies are a crucial component of effective digital marketing practice and provide guidance for crafting more persuasive promotional materials.

Abstract

This study investigates the semantic features employed in food and beverage advertisements published on Instagram. The study aims to understand how lexical choices, connotative strategies, and meaning relations are employed to construct brand image, elicit emotional resonance, and influence consumer preferences. Data were collected from ten official advertising posts of popular food and beverage brands that commonly appear on Indonesian users' feeds between January and June 2025. A descriptive qualitative analysis was conducted using frameworks for lexical, connotative, and relational semantics. The findings reveal a consistent pattern in which advertisements combine denotative meanings to communicate product attributes, connotative meanings to evoke emotional associations, and relational meanings to establish cultural ties and social identity. In addition, the analysis shows that code mixing is frequently used as a linguistic strategy, with insertion type emerging as the dominant form, particularly through the integration of English lexical items into Indonesian sentence structures (e.g., vibes, fresh, bestie). This pattern reflects the influence of globalized digital culture and the tendency of brands to target younger, bilingual audiences. Beyond describing advertising language, this study contributes to linguistic research by demonstrating how semantic structures function in multimodal digital discourse and how meaning-making processes operate within contemporary social media communication. In addition, the findings offer practical insights for marketing studies by illustrating how strategic word choices and semantic framing can enhance brand positioning, audience engagement, and persuasive effectiveness in digital advertising environments. These insights highlight that semantic strategies are not merely stylistic elements but play a significant role in shaping consumer perception and interaction in the digital marketplace.
