Abstract

Climate change is a global issue that impacts many people around the world. In recent years, several areas in South Sumatra have experienced the uneven impacts of climate change, especially forest fires and drought. Reflecting on the environmental problems that occur, this is closely related to the behavior of the community. Therefore, climate change education must be provided from the beginning, especially to young learners. This research, conducted at SD IT Harapan Mulia Palembang, aims to explore the potential of bilingual picture books in fostering a sense of responsibility and concern for the environment among young learners. By introducing climate change concepts in an accessible and relevant way, this study seeks to empower children to become advocates for environmental sustainability in their communities. Additionally, it aims to improve language skills and reading interest among young learners. This research involved 24 young sixth grade elementary school students, a stakeholder, and two English teachers through a mixed methods approach, questionnaires and semi-structured interviews.The findings of this research reveal the enthusiasm of young learners in using bilingual picture books about climate change in the classroom. Young learners have their own characteristics of books to use, some of which are based on themes and illustrations, story content, use of two languages, number of pages, and interactive elements such as crossword puzzles or short exercises that can hone their language skills. Therefore, researchers suggest that bilingual picture books can be developed and applied as effective and attractive learning media for young learners in English Language Teaching class.Keywords: climate change education; English for Young Learners; bilingual picturebooks; English language teaching

Abstract

This article discusses the application of short videos and pictures in teaching ESP procedure texts in computer and network engineering majors. This research uses a qualitative method with a case study design to explore the integration of video and pictures in ESP teaching, the challenges teachers face in integrating videos and pictures in ESP teaching, and how teachers overcome these challenges. The participants of this study consisted of one English teacher in computer and network engineering class who was selected by purposive sampling. The research was conducted at SMK Mahardika Malang and involved English teachers from the computer and network engineering department. Data collection methods included observation and interviews with teachers, focusing on the procedures for integrating short videos and pictures, the challenges faced, and solutions to overcome these challenges. The findings reveal that there are several activities in the classroom, namely teacher activities, student activities, and the learning and teaching process. Teachers face three challenges. The first is time constraints. To overcome this challenge, teachers must use pictures and short videos wisely and adjust them to the time available in the lesson plan. The second is the mismatch of learning material sources. The solution to this challenge is to use effective multimedia such as the Internet and YouTube. The third is students' low motivation to learn English and write procedural texts. The solution to this challenge is for teachers to approach students emotionally, consult with their parents, and provide project-based learning strategies using English. This research provides valuable insights for ESP education, emphasizing the importance of adapting content to industry needs, addressing motivation issues, and effectively using multimedia elements.

Abstract

Attaining proficiency in grammar is crucial for students as it serves as the foundation for language use. However, many individuals shy away from learning it, perceiving it as a daunting and challenging task. This research is aimed at enhancing grammar teaching by applying Grammar Wheel. It focuses on the active and passive voice mastery of three forms of tenses including simple past tense, past continuous tense, and past perfect tense. Conducted in one of the public Senior High Schools in Indonesia, this study was participated by 35 students and an English teacher. Having troubles in comprehending grammar, the teacher needed media and activities to deliver the grammar materials interestingly. Two cycles of Classroom Action Research (CAR) were implemented. The data were collected using observation sheets, field notes, video recordings, interview guidelines, and exercise sheets. The analysis was carried out qualitatively following the steps proposed by Cresswell (2012). The results revealed that language teaching had been successfully improved and students were more motivated to engage in the learning process being in a comfortable and supportive learning environment. Furthermore, learners’ knowledge in mastering the three types of tenses increased significantly as evidenced by their writing. Hence, the Grammar Wheel has proven to be an effective tool for teaching grammar in the classroom.

Abstract

The incorporation of critical pedagogy (CP) principles in the teaching of English as a foreign language (TEFL) in Indonesia has been promoted since the last two decades. However, research on how Indonesian EFL teachers view the CP principles are rarely conducted. This case study aims to discover the perceptions of 30 Indonesian EFL teachers teaching in different levels of education and having various educational backgrounds and diverse degree of familiarity regarding the four CP principles. The data for this study were collected by distributing questionnaires and conducting interviews. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and by transcribing, tabulating, coding, categorizing, interpreting, comparing, and concluding. It is evident from the participants’ viewpoints, among the four principles, dialogue and problem-posing are the two most desirable as well as applicable ones. Additionally, in practicing the four principles, the participants claimed that they performed twelve categories of classroom activities. Considering the findings of this study, more training and research on critical EFL pedagogy are recommended.

Abstract

The post-pandemic situation has triggered a seismic shift in the education landscape, forcing educational institutions worldwide to transition to online learning platforms. Understanding students' perspectives towards this abrupt transformation is crucial for improving the quality of online education. This study employs sentiment analysis techniques, specifically Word Frequency Analysis, to gain insights into students' sentiments and opinions concerning online learning. Using a dataset of student responses collected through surveys and open-ended questions, the researchers conducted a comprehensive analysis of the words and phrases frequently used by students when describing their experiences with online learning. Through the systematic identification of prominent words and their frequencies, this research provides a valuable overview of the prevailing sentiments, concerns, and areas of satisfaction among students. The findings reveal a nuanced picture of students' attitudes. While positive sentiments such as “nyaman”, “baik”, and “responsif" are prevalent, there are also concerns and challenges highlighted, including 'isolation,' 'technical issues,' and 'communication difficulties.' Furthermore, the analysis uncovers variations in sentiment based on demographic factors, course types, and prior experience with online education. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of students' sentiments towards online learning, offering educators and policymakers valuable insights for enhancing the online learning experience. The Word Frequency Analysis methodology employed in this study proves to be a powerful tool for efficiently distilling the sentiments expressed in large datasets of qualitative responses, providing a foundation for further qualitative and quantitative investigations in the field of online education.

Abstract

The goal of this study is to improve EFL students' exposure to English language acquisition while preventing boredom. In order to get insight into the teaching-learning environment of the classroom and the speaking abilities of EFL students, the researcher used classroom action research. She conducted interviews with the English teacher and students as well as performed observations and administered assessments. With deliberate sampling, this method enables the collection of both qualitative and quantitative data. The pre-test, cycle 1 post-test, and cycle 2 post-test results all showed that EFL students' comprehension of idiomatic speech had significantly increased after using role-playing techniques, as recommended by the study. EFL students performed poorly in the first cycle, as evidenced by their average theoretical score of 62.57 and their 28.57% success rate on the practical test. The EFL mean score on the theoretical test increased to 80.00 in the second cycle with modifications, while the practical test success rate increased to 85.71%. This illustrates how the role-playing technique affects idiomatic speech in EFL. The study also discovered that learners prioritize specific word meanings over metaphorical interpretations, in contrast to native speakers. In the end, the study emphasizes how important it is to take perceptions into account while assessing idiom learning and processing.
