Abstract

Learner autonomy has been a major topic of research in foreign language education for a long time. Despite the prevalent consensus that learner autonomy is concerned with a learner’s capacity to take control or take charge of his/her own learning (Benson, 2013), this does not mean that the teacher’s role is unnecessary. In recent years, many approaches to promoting learner autonomy have been suggested and many empirical studies have been carried out to examine the effectiveness of the approaches. This paper aimed at reviewing approaches to promoting learner autonomy. First, the definitions of learner autonomy are presented, followed by a discussion of the teacher’s roles in promoting learner autonomy. Next, six approaches to fostering learner autonomy as proposed by Benson (2001) are reviewed with references to both theories and results of empirical research. Based on the review, it can be concluded that teachers play an important role in the development of learner autonomy, and although the six approaches have different emphases, they seem to have more similarities than differences, particularly in encouraging learners to plan and follow their language learning paths to attain their goals. Implications for future research are put forward.

Abstract

This research aims to find out how students can use YouTube's educational English videos to enhance their listening skills. A Google Form online survey was used as the survey methodology for this quantitative research. The target population for this research is senior high school students taking English classes. Due to the application's beneficial effects on the student's hearing, the data analysis showed that the student can enhance their listening comprehension with YouTube's educational English videos. The results of this research suggest that watching English instruction videos on YouTube can improve students' listening comprehension. The results were supported by every student, who agreed that using YouTube to improve their listening comprehension could be helpful. This research is far from perfect and still has many flaws. The researcher therefore expects that another researcher will continue their study into how to use YouTube's application for English educational videos more effectively, especially in listening comprehension across a range of academic levels. The study's benefits and potential to help other researchers who want to look into a connected topic are also anticipated by the researcher.

Abstract

This study examined the representation of the educational values in Clouds as presented by the four main characters, which are Zach, Amy, Sammy, and Zach's mother by utilizing the three metafunctions concepts by Kress and Leeuwen (2006) and the theory of education value by Linda and Richard in Elmubarok (2019). This study used a qualitative descriptive method. This research found that there are 10 out of 12 educational values. The researcher did not find purity and respect values.

Abstract

This paper describes the result of student self-reflection on their writing ability and the application of the process writing approach conducted in their academic writing class. The data was collected through a self-reflection written by the participants. The students were guided to reflect on their learning experience in two aspects: their views on their writing ability and the application of the process writing approach in the classroom. Forty-four students of the English literature program from the Faculty of Foreign Languages, Mahasaraswati Denpasar University, were chosen as the participants for this study through a purposive sampling method. This method was ideal because these students have undergone similar learning experiences within the same context, which provided rich data for the study. The result of their self-reflection was analyzed using a qualitative approach. The findings indicate that more than half of the participants perceived their writing ability as lacking. Less than 10% of the participants were confident in their writing ability, and the rest saw improvement in their ability but required further practice and guidance. In terms of the application of process writing, the majority of participants agreed that it had a positive impact on their writing process.
