Abstract

Various methods are used to allow students to be more involved in a meaningful vocabulary learning atmosphere, one of which is using technology-based gamification. This study aims to investigate EFL learners’ perception of technology-based gamification using Baamboozle for English vocabulary learning. Accordingly, following this objective, a qualitative approach was used, with a case study as the research design. In collecting the data, the researchers utilized semi-structured interviews with two high-achieving and two low-achieving students in the 8th grade International Class Program at one of the private junior high schools in Malang, Indonesia. After gaining the data, the researchers analyzed it through three phases: familiarizing and organizing, coding and reducing, and interpreting and representing. The results showed that students respond positively to Baamboozle for vocabulary learning. Their perceptions are then categorized into seven points: 1. Using Bamboozle is an effective way to learn vocabulary; 2. The use of technology in the learning process is important; 3. Learning vocabulary using Baamboozle is more enjoyable; 4. The use of Baamboozle can increase vocabulary; 5. Favorite features of Baamboozle; 6. Students’ difficulties in using Baamboozle; 7. Baamboozle motivates students to learn vocabulary.

Abstract

Translation is important in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) setting since it requires turning the source language into the target language. This study is innovative considering the lack of earlier research in this subject. A descriptive quantitative technique was adopted in this study. Twenty six students of Physical Education was done fill the questionnaire. This in-depth assessment was carried out in order to learn as much as possible about the students' points of view and to determine whether or not their opinion was primarily poor or very good. The results demonstrate that while students using DeepL for translation realise vocabulary limitations, they also accept translation approaches. Beyond Google Translate, DeepL's extensive application, adaptability, and efficiency in word-by-word, phrase-by-phrase, and paragraph-by-paragraph translation tasks make it a crucial component of the translation process. Students' use of dictionaries is impacted by DeepL in varied ways; some overcome sloth, while others get addicted to quick searches. Students actively verify findings and learn grammar, even if they have doubts about DeepL. According to the study, the key to adopting DeepL is resolving vocabulary difficulties and striking a balance between technology and traditional language learning methodologies. In order to develop digital language training methods, it suggests examining DeepL's long-term effects on language learning objectives and proficiency.

Abstract

Writing has often been considered a challenging skill to master. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of a scientific approach based on Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) on enhancing students' descriptive writing abilities. This investigation employed classroom action research with twenty-four ninth-grade junior high school students in West Jakarta as participants. The research was conducted in two cycles, utilizing observation, interviews, and a series of writing tests to collect data. The results indicated that students' writing improved as a consequence of the use of a scientific approach based on MALL. By engaging them in a number of practices at each meeting, working with websites and applications, and seeking feedback from both students and teachers, MALL tended to enhance students' writing abilities. Implementing a scientific approach supported by MALL has shown potential in helping learners enhance their ideas in writing. They demonstrated their ability to create lengthy paragraphs supplemented with relevant details. Students boosted their vocabulary learning by using digital dictionaries and watching videos. Regular feedback from peers and teachers were crucial in helping students understand the significance of punctuation and spelling accuracy in their written work. Therefore, it is advised to conduct additional scholarly research to examine the effectiveness of the scientific approach based on MALL, covering not just writing skills but also extending to reading, speaking, or listening skills.

Abstract

There is a lack of study focusing on the payoffs and pitfalls of integrating CP principles in EFL classrooms especially in the Indonesian higher education context. This case study research was performed to unearth the benefits and challenges of integrating the four CP principles consisting of dialogue, problem-posing, praxis, and conscientization in the tertiary education EFL context. The two EFL lecturers teaching in different higher education institutions Subang and Bandung, West Java Province were selected as the participants of this study. The data were collected using interview guideline and classroom observation sheet. The obtained data were then analyzed through transcribing, coding, categorizing, interpreting, comparing, and concluding. The result showed that there are two benefits and two challenges perceived by the participants. While the two benefits are improving students’ English proficiency and increasing their social awareness, the two challenges are students’ unwillingness to participate during the classroom discussions and predetermined curriculum. It is recommended for policy makers to promote the integration of CP in the EFL classrooms especially in the higher education institutions and for further researchers to conduct the identical study focusing on how the EFL educators practicing CP principles overcome challenges they face.
