Abstract

This study investigated the teaching practices, challenges, and reflective thinking of seven pre-service EFL teachers during their teaching practicum at SMPN 1 Majene, Sulawesi Barat. Employing a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through structured classroom observations and post-teaching interviews. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis, in which observation notes and interview transcripts were systematically coded, categorized into recurring themes, and interpreted in relation to the study's research objectives. The findings reveal that while all participants demonstrated foundational instructional competencies including lesson review, ice-breaking activities, and student assessment considerable variation existed in lesson structure, media use, classroom communication, and student engagement. Classroom management emerged as the most prevalent challenge, with difficulties ranging from low voice projection and student passivity to poor time management and ineffective game implementation. Most participants attributed these challenges to personal factors, particularly insufficient preparation. Post-teaching reflections indicated meaningful self-awareness, as each teacher identified specific weaknesses and proposed contextually grounded improvements. Most notably, all seven participants unanimously selected gamification as their preferred instructional strategy for future teaching, signaling a shared recognition of the need for more interactive and engaging learning approaches. These findings suggest that pre-service EFL teacher education programs should strengthen training in classroom management, instructional variety, and gamification-based pedagogy to better equip novice teachers for authentic classroom demands.

Abstract

The increasing use of digital technology in education has influenced how instructional media are applied in English language teaching. However, variations still exist in how lecturers select and implement instructional media in classroom practice, particularly in higher education contexts. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the types of instructional media used by lecturers and to analyze how these media are implemented in English language teaching. This study employed a qualitative research design involving three English lecturers from three higher education institutions in Banjarmasin, namely STKIP Sabilal Muhatadin Banjarmasin, Universitas Islam Kalimantan Muhammad Arsyad Al Banjari (UNISKA MAB), and Universitas Lambung Mangkurat (ULM), selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews consisting of open-ended questions related to the types of instructional media used, the reasons for selecting specific media, and the ways the media were implemented in teaching. The collected data were analyzed using thematic analysis based on Braun and Clarke’s framework. The findings revealed that lecturers used a combination of conventional and digital instructional media to support teaching activities. Conventional media such as presentation slides and whiteboards were used to deliver learning materials systematically, while digital tools such as Kahoot, Quizizz, Google Docs, and Learning Management Systems were utilized to enhance student engagement, participation, and collaboration. The findings contribute practical insights into how diverse instructional media can support more interactive and student-centered English language learning and highlight the importance of lecturers’ ability to select appropriate media in higher education contexts.

Abstract

This study looks at how teacher questioning methods influence classroom interaction in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) situation. Its goal is  to identify the types of questions used by teachers and to investigate how these questions shape interactional patterns during classroom conversation. Using a qualitative descriptive methodology, data were collected from classroom observations during three lessons, yielding 132 instructor questions. The data were transcribed, coded, and classified into four types: display questions, referential questions, procedural questions, and checking comprehension questions. The findings show that display queries were the most common and consistently produced short, predictable responses, resulting in interactional sequences that swiftly ended. Although allowed for more personalized responses they were not expanded through follow-up methods. Procedural and verifying comprehension questions were primarily used to manage classroom flow and confirm comprehension, with little contribution to interactional growth. Overall, classroom engagement was described as teacher-led, short, and with limited discourse expansion. According to the study, the efficiency of questioning is determined not only by the type of question employed but also by how teachers handle interactional sequences, which includes their ability to encourage student responses and facilitate deeper discussions. It proposes that more follow-up tactics should be used to generate more meaningful and student-centered classroom on their answers and facilitating peer discussions.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of cognitive learning strategies on vocabulary retention and retrieval among EFL learners in an Islamic boarding school context. While previous studies have explored cognitive strategies in general EFL settings, limited research has specifically examined their combined effects on both vocabulary retention and retrieval within Islamic boarding school contexts. The research addressed two main questions: to what extent cognitive learning strategies influence students’ vocabulary retention and how these strategies affect vocabulary retrieval. The study employed a quantitative pre-experimental design using a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. The participants consisted of 30 third-grade students at Pendidikan Diniyah Formal Ulya Putri Sengkang. Data were collected using a structured vocabulary test measuring both retention (recognition and recall) and retrieval (productive use). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-tests to determine the significance of improvement. The findings showed a substantial increase in both vocabulary retention and retrieval scores, with the mean retention score improving from 29.47 to 42.83 and retrieval from 25.43 to 42.10. The results also indicated that retention gains were slightly more consistent than retrieval improvements, although both were statistically significant (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that cognitive learning strategies effectively enhance both the storage and active use of vocabulary. The study contributes to cognitive learning theory by reinforcing the role of encoding, storage, and retrieval processes, and offers practical implications for integrating structured cognitive strategies into EFL instruction to improve vocabulary learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study examines how listeners express self-empathy in TikTok comments responding to Taylor Swift’s song Mirrorball. While previous research has explored emotional responses to music on digital platforms, limited attention has been given to how individuals direct empathy toward themselves through brief online expressions. Drawing on Neff’s self-compassion framework, this study focuses on three aspects of self-empathy: self-reflection, emotional awareness, and self-validation. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, twelve TikTok comments were purposively selected and analyzed through thematic analysis. The findings reveal that each aspect of self-empathy is equally represented in the data, with four comments categorized under self-reflection, four under emotional awareness, and four under self-validation. These findings show that listeners use the song as a reflective space to recognize themselves, become aware of their emotional states, and validate their feelings through everyday language. These findings suggest that TikTok functions not only as a platform for music consumption but also as a space where individuals articulate and process self-related emotions through brief digital expressions.

Abstract

This study presents a structural and semantic analysis of English loanwords in Mandarin on Weibo. Although previous research has extensively investigated phonological adaptation and etymological origins, the structural patterns and semantic meanings of English loanwords in Mandarin in digital communication remain underexplored. This study aims to describe the structural formation based on Xing's classification and denotative/connotative meanings based on Barthes' semiotic framework. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data were collected from Weibo posts in the fourth quarter of 2025 through non-participatory observation and web scraping, resulting in 150 English loanwords in Mandarin for analysis. The findings reveal three structural patterns. Full phonetic translation dominates, followed by phonetic translation with a Mandarin morpheme, while mixed sound-meaning translation occurs least often. This distribution indicates that phonological adaptation is the primary strategy for loanword formation on social media. Regarding meaning, connotative meaning was identified through contextual analysis of metaphorical, slang, or culturally charged expressions within each post, such as 披萨 (pīsà/pizza) used to express romantic feelings in fan community posts. Denotative meaning was assigned when the loanword referred literally to its dictionary definition. Denotative use is more prevalent than connotative use, suggesting that Weibo users primarily employ loanwords for referential purposes. Connotative meanings, though fewer, are significant as they demonstrate creative repurposing for emotional and cultural expression. The study contributes to Mandarin language teaching by showing how English loanwords can serve as accessible vocabulary and how understanding connotation helps learners grasp cultural nuances in digital communication.

Abstract

This study investigates multilingualism and code-switching practices among English Department students across three communication domains: home, campus, and social media. Students in Indonesia regularly interact in multiple languages, Indonesian, English, and regional languages yet limited research explores how these linguistic resources are managed across different social contexts. This study aims to describe (1) how students employ multilingualism and code-switching in their daily communication, and (2) what factors influence their language choices across these domains. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with undergraduate English Department students. Participants were selected through purposive sampling, and data were analyzed thematically to identify recurring patterns of language use and switching functions. Findings reveal that students display domain-dependent multilingual behaviour. At home, regional languages and Indonesian are dominant due to family norms and cultural identity. On campus, Indonesian is primarily used for peer interaction, while English appears in academic tasks and lecturer communication. On social media, students frequently mix Indonesian and English for stylistic purposes, identity expression, and wider audience engagement. Code-switching functions include clarifying meaning, maintaining conversational flow, expressing identity, and adapting to interlocutors. Language choice is further shaped by context, topic, proficiency, and social relationships. Overall, the study shows that students use their linguistic repertoire flexibly rather than separating languages into fixed systems. These findings contribute to understanding multilingual behaviour in higher education and highlight code-switching as a meaningful communicative strategy in academic and digital contexts.
