Abstract

The important variables were reported to have the potential to affect the students’ performance in writing English essay. This present study investigates the predictive potential of cognitive styles and critical thinking skills variables on students’ performance in writing English essay. The quantitative design has been used in this study, wherein a multiple regression analysis was carried out between independent variables and writing skills. The total population was 40, from which a sample of 26 students was drawn based on simple random sampling from English department students of Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Lakidende Unaaha. Concerning the results of regression analysis, it was stated that cognitive styles and critical thinking skills (p-value are respectively 0.002 and 0.021) had a significant effect on student performance in writing English essay. In other words, increasing critical thinking skill by one unit is on average associated with an increase in writing score of 2.468 points, and for an increase in cognitive style, there is a corresponding increase of 0.766 points. However, from these standardized beta coefficients, it is evident that critical thinking skills alone (0.627), have a stronger influence on writing performance than cognitive styles (0.449). The constant of 35.741 gives the predicted value of writing performance when the independent variables are zero. These findings point out how important it is to foster critical thinking and awareness of cognitive styles if an attempt is made to boost students’ performance in writing.

Abstract

Vocabulary acquisition is fundamental to English language fluency, enabling comprehension in reading and listening, which subsequently facilitates speaking proficiency. Flashcards offer an engaging learning medium for vocabulary development, particularly beneficial for students with intellectual disabilities who often experience boredom and disinterest in traditional English instruction. This study investigated the effectiveness of flashcards intervention in enhancing vocabulary mastery of nine students with intellectual disabilities enrolled at SLB Rela Bhakti II Wates, Yogyakarta. Employing a pre-experimental, one group pre-test-post-test research design with a quantitative approach, assessed vocabulary gains following the flashcard-based intervention. The pretest established baseline vocabulary knowledge, followed by targeted flashcard instruction, and concluded with a posttest to measure improvement. Data analysis compared pretest and posttest scores to determine the impact of the intervention. The results of the study demonstrated a significant increase in vocabulary mastery. The average pretest score was 6, while the average posttest score rose to 44.4. Furthermore, the lowest pretest score was 0, increasing to 26 in the posttest, and the highest pretest score of 32 improved to 76 in the posttest, indicating substantial vocabulary growth across all participants. These findings suggest that flashcards are an effective tool for improving speaking vocabulary among students with intellectual disabilities.

Abstract

This study aimed to conduct a needs analysis for developing an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) teaching model at Muhammadiyah Kuningan College of Teacher Training and Education in West Java, Indonesia. The research involved 104 students enrolled in the Information and Communication Technology Education program, aged between 19 and 21 years. Additionally, six lecturers, holding master’s degrees in Information Technology and possessing teaching experience ranging from three to ten years, participated in the study. Data from students were gathered through a multiple-choice questionnaire administered via the Ruangmu Learning Management System (LMS), focusing on three key areas: prerequisites, challenges, and educational aspirations. The feasibility of the LMS-based ESP model was also assessed using a validated instrument endorsed by experts. Results highlighted the importance of a detailed needs analysis in identifying knowledge gaps, forming the basis for developing an effective teaching model. A gap analysis helped bridge the disparity between current and required competencies. Pre-test scores revealed averages of 59.32, with the median, lowest, and highest scores being 60, 30, and 80, respectively. A clear improvement was observed in post-test results, indicating that the Ruangmu LMS had a positive impact on students' learning outcomes. The paired sample test further validated this enhancement, showing a statistically significant improvement with a two-tailed significance value of 0.00. In conclusion, the findings suggest that the Ruangmu LMS plays a critical role in improving student outcomes in English for Specific Purposes (ESP).

Abstract

The ability to read well is very important for students to understand and process information effectively, especially in the context of learning. Reading ability is closely related to the strategies used by students, where the better the strategy used, the better the information obtained. This study aims to analyze the differences in reading strategies based on gender in class XI students at SMAN 3 Batusangkar. Using a comparative descriptive research design, three reading strategy variables Global (GLOB), Support (SUP), and Problem Solving (PROB) were analyzed. The results showed that male and female students used similar reading strategies, with average scores ranging from 54.0 to 63.5. Male students tended to excel more in the SUP and GLOB strategies, while female students excelled more in the PROB strategy, although the difference was relatively small. The study concluded that although there were differences in strategy use based on gender, the differences were not statistically significant. This finding indicates that gender is not the main determining factor in students' choice of reading strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the deixis used in the lyrics of the song "Give Me Your Forever" by Zack Tabudlo and examine its functions within the context of the song. Adopting a qualitative analysis approach, the research identifies various forms of deixis, including person, temporal, and spatial deixis. The analysis reveals that person deixis, through pronouns such as "I" and "you," plays a significant role in establishing relationships and emotional connections between the singer and the listener. Temporal deixis is explored through expressions referring to specific time frames, which anchor emotions and experiences within a particular context, enhancing the emotional depth of the song. Additionally, spatial deixis is examined through terms indicating location, which serve to enrich the meaning of the interactions depicted in the lyrics. The findings highlight how the use of deixis not only enhances the lyrical content but also creates emotional resonance for the listeners, demonstrating the complexity of communication in music through the interplay of language, time, space, and emotion.

Abstract

The use of ChatGPT as a generative artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly integrated into daily communication as a complimentary chatbot that assists individuals in resolving inquiries. ChatGPT's ease is also being discussed in the educational context, including in language teaching. Although previous studies have examined the use of artificial intelligence in English language teaching, limited studies investigate the possibilities and constraints of ChatGPT in enhancing students' critical thinking abilities in writing from the educators' viewpoint, especially senior high school level educators. Therefore, this study examines English teachers' perspectives on utilizing ChatGPT to improve students' critical thinking skills in English writing sessions. Employing a mixed-method design, insights were obtained from qualitative data of interviews with six teachers and triangulated with quantitative survey responses from 20 teachers. Findings reveal the teachers' recognition of ChatGPT's ability to facilitate individualized learning and improve instructional effectiveness. However, there are remaining concerns that educators are apprehensive about, particularly regarding the students' overdependence on AI, which may hinder the advancement of critical thinking abilities. This study offers a framework for the efficient use of AI tools in L2 instruction to enhance students' critical thinking skills, providing valuable recommendations for instructors aiming to align technological improvements with pedagogical principles. Further research utilizing larger sample sizes in an experimental context should be conducted to yield more robust conclusions.

Abstract

The following are the issues raised by this study: 1) What are the challenges that English lecturers face when writing research articles for scholarly publication in a reputable international journal? 2) What are the most significant impediments that English lecturers face when writing research articles for scholarly publication in a reputable international journal. The dominance of English in global studies has recently become an issue of debate in the publishing sector. Writing academic papers in English has grown more significant. However, faculty members and postgraduate students face writing barriers in a number of areas, including knowledge claim, textual organization, interference from diverse cultural perspectives, linking the text to the audience, argument structure, grammatical rules, and so on. According to the findings of this study, one of the most common difficulties that researchers encounter while writing is selecting how to claim expertise. Furthermore, they emphasize the importance of writing and publishing in a well-known international indexed journal for the benefit of themselves, their university, and their country. They argue that the university should offer them a course, training, or workshop.

Abstract

Theory and philosophy are inseparably linked. Theory shapes how people purposefully engage with the world, whereas philosophy shapes how people perceive the world. The idea behind this study is that pre-service English teachers follow certain beliefs to improve their pedagogical abilities prior to the implementation. This study investigated the predominant educational philosophies among pre-service English teachers enrolled in an English Education program at a University in Solo. The respondents of the study were 38 pre-service English teachers at a University in Solo, Central Java who were chosen through simple random sampling. Data were collected using a survey adapted from the self-assessment educational philosophies scoring guide. It utilized a quantitative survey research that involves gathering data through questionnaires. The analysis revealed that Behaviorism emerged as the most commonly endorsed philosophy, followed by Perennialism and Progressivism. These findings suggest that pre-service English teachers tend to adopt teacher-centered approaches that emphasize structure, repetition and reinforcement. The study suggests that Indonesian pre-service English teachers believe effective teaching involves a combination of student-centered and teacher-centered approaches, urging for curriculum support.
