Abstract

The study examines the levels of anxiety in speaking English among students and explores strategies they employ to alleviate this anxiety. Drawing from Balemir's categorization of Foreign Language Speaking Anxiety into high, moderate, and low levels, and supported by Kondo and Ying's theory, six strategies for reducing speaking anxiety are identified: preparation, relaxation, positive thinking, audience depreciation, concentration, and resignation. Conducted as a qualitative case study, the research involved 30 students from class XI IPS 3 at SMAN 1 Lohbener. While all students completed questionnaires to assess their anxiety levels, 12 students were selected for in-depth interviews, representing each level of anxiety. Instruments included the Foreign Language Speaking Anxiety Scale (FLSAS) and a semi-structured interview based on Kondo's framework. Results indicate that 16.6% of students experienced low anxiety, 40% moderate anxiety, and 43.3% high anxiety in speaking English. Strategies employed by students to reduce anxiety included preparation through studying and seeking assistance, relaxation techniques like calming down and consuming water, positive thinking, audience depreciation by diverting attention, concentration methods such as speaking slowly, and resignation, where students withdraw or remain silent. These findings shed light on the prevalence of speaking anxiety among students and the efficacy of various coping strategies, providing insights for educators to support students in improving their english speaking proficiency.

Abstract

This article explains the importance of character awareness as an essential initial formation of human character. Pure character is formed from subjective birth, which is not limited to objective facts. Consciousness is the feeling of "self," the manifestation of "self," and even the equivalent of "self." Conscious activity has two characteristics: liquidity and super temporality. Consciousness is not bound by time, which is constantly flowing and related to the present, past, and future. James also believes that most consciousness is irrational and non-logical. The primary technique used to analyze this research is controlling the flow of consciousness in the novel using the principle of promiscuity. The line that influences the activity of consciousness is promiscuity. Modernism literature focuses on introspection and the most profound activities of the characters, so the author wants to know the characters' actual thoughts through all levels of the depiction of consciousness, paying attention to the subconscious and subconscious, two of which are primarily abstract and irrational.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of online professional development (PD) programs on the reflective thinking levels of secondary EFL teachers in Indonesia. Despite having sufficient content knowledge, many EFL teachers lack confidence in using English in classroom settings. Reflective practice has been identified as a key strategy to improve both language proficiency and professional confidence. This research, employing a case study design, focused on a 10-week online PD program organized by a university educator in Indonesia. A purposive sample of 10 EFL teachers participated in semi-structured interviews to explore their engagement in reflective practices. The findings indicate that while some teachers struggled to participate in reflective activities due to overwhelming workloads, others engaged in reflection-on-action and reflection-for-action. These reflections addressed areas such as instructional strategies, course organization, classroom management, student motivation and readiness, teaching materials, teaching awareness, and self-efficacy in teaching English language skills. However, reflection-in-action was notably absent. The results underscore the critical role of structured guidance and support within professional development (PD) programs in fostering meaningful reflective practices among secondary EFL teachers and the need for PD facilitators to prioritize incorporating reflective components into program design, ensuring that teachers are equipped with clear frameworks and tools for reflection.

Abstract

The usefulness of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in fostering the development of critical thinking, teamwork, communication, creativity, and digital literacy—all crucial 21st-century skills—is examined in this paper. Based on constructivist learning theories, such as those proposed by Lev Vygotsky and John Dewey, the study emphasizes PBL as a student-centered method that encourages experiential learning via practical projects. Through active problem-solving and teamwork, these projects help students grow in their ability to think critically and creatively. A narrative literature review was used as part of the study's approach to compile pertinent studies related to Project-based learning. The conceptual framework for the analysis concentrated on the ways in which PBL develops essential competencies, paying special emphasis to student participation, technological integration, and collaborative learning. The results show that by challenging students to apply their knowledge to solve real-world situations, PBL dramatically improves critical thinking. Additionally, it fosters creativity by supporting invention and concept experimenting. Teamwork in PBL environments fosters collaboration, an essential ability in today's businesses. PBL also helps students become better communicators since they have to explain their thoughts and provide solutions. PBL's incorporation of digital technologies improves digital literacy even further and gets pupils ready for a world where technology is everywhere. To sum up, PBL is an effective teaching strategy for cultivating 21st-century competencies. However, sufficient training for teachers, institutional backing, and fair access to digital resources are necessary for successful implementation. PBL is recommended for use by educators in order to help students become lifelong learners and better equipped for the complexity of the modern workforce.
