Abstract

Proficiency in English communication is a critical skill that requires continuous improvement, as it is one of the essential competencies demanded by the professional work of the world and must be mastered by vocational school students. Among these competencies, one of the required abilities is to compose a cover letter for job applications, which is particularly significant. Writing proficiency encompasses an individual's capacity to articulate ideas, concepts, and opinions using appropriate language. However, vocational school students in Batam City continue to experience difficulties in composing application letters in English. This study aims to quantitatively assess the implementation of the synectic learning model in Batam City Vocational Schools. To achieve this objective, researchers conducted an experimental study at SMK Globe National Plus 2 Batam, involving 80 participants. The requisite research data were collected through written assessments and statistically analyzed using SPSS Version 20. The findings indicated that the implementation of the synectic learning model can enhance students' ability to compose application letters. Consequently, the results of this research contribute to the implementation of the synectic learning model in vocational schools in Batam City, with the goal of increasing the preparedness of vocational school graduates for entry into the professional and industrial sectors.

Abstract

Studies reveal concern about students’ decreased motivation in the pandemic online learning, and novice teachers are especially vulnerable in this era as they still have little teaching experiences but have to teach in such a challenging environment. This paper investigates the problems a novice teacher faced in improving elementary students’ motivation during online learning and the motivational strategies she used. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and presented according to the narrative inquiry design. The results imply that the novice teacher had troubles related to the lack of access to a real-time, face-to-face communication platform that allows direct feedback, students’ low motivation in submitting their tasks, and her lack of teaching experience. The novice teacher had used some motivational strategies which include relating the learning topic with the student's interest and context, utilizing various learning media and material, increasing the students’ expectancy of success, and encouraging positive self-evaluation. The novice teacher had implemented the motivational strategies to some extent and handled the problems quite well; however, there is still a lack of variety in her motivational strategies and a lack of teaching experience. Therefore, the teacher should continuously self-reflect and improve her knowledge and practice, institutions must ensure that novice teachers are not left to adapt on their own, and policies must prioritize equitable access to learning technologies and family engagement strategies to support children’s learning at home.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of Toraja cultural elements in the sentence writing of English Education students at UKI Toraja. Using a quantitative descriptive analysis with 56 participants, the research utilized a questionnaire to evaluate engagement with local cultural aspects. The results show a significant incorporation of traditional food and natural landscapes, which received mean scores of 59 and 63, respectively, indicating students' appreciation for their heritage and enhancing their identity through sensory experiences. However, cultural expressions such as Londe/Pantun and the Rambu Tuka’ ceremony were less represented, with mean scores of 41 and 52, revealing gaps in students' familiarity and confidence. These findings highlight the need for educational initiatives that encourage the exploration of underrepresented cultural elements, thereby enriching student narratives and providing a more comprehensive portrayal of Toraja culture. Expanding curricular approaches to include diverse expressions of local heritage can improve writing skills and strengthen cultural connections among students.

Abstract

English proficiency can enhance non-native speakers' educational experience by providing them access to a wide range of materials, international conferences, and chances for collaboration. However, acquiring a language can present significant challenges, especially for people who are not native English speakers and those who enter the education system from other nations. The utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and fully automated interactive spoken language (SDS) has the potential to enhance student engagement and facilitate improvements in oral contact and communication. The Chatbot feature of ChatGPT, an AI website, has the potential to enhance language learning by promoting active participation and improving educational achievements. Nevertheless, the efficacy of ChatGPT in catering to the needs of second language (L2) learners can be constrained by their distinct linguistic demands. This project aims to investigate the capacity of ChatGPT to produce reference dialogues tailored for advanced English learners and examine the potential enhancement of dialogue quality through prompting strategies. This study used a mixed method study, which distributed a survey questionnaire and conducted semi-structured interviews with the responders to determine the best prompting technique used in ChatGPT for generating reference dialogue.  Then, the finding of this research showed that most students had a positive perception of using ChatGPT to generate dialogue references. However, some of them had a negative perception in some parts of using ChatGPT to generate dialogue references. Furthermore, ChatGPT was valuable and helpful in generating dialogue references, which helped the students be more confident when they wrote a conversational dialogue.

Abstract

The increase in digital content that is accessed by all age levels, including ages 4-6 who are in Early Childhood Education, has a good impact on access to positive content for self-development but also has the potential to have negative impacts such as addiction, lack of social interaction, bad influences on physical to weakening language development. Sometimes, the lack of exposure to the use of English contributes to the less-than-optimal mastery of English in children. There is an idea that aims to integrate three components of learning, namely digital technology, storytelling, and the use of bilingualism. Bilingual digital storytelling is an alternative solution to accommodate the development needs of children in terms of receptive language skills, listening and productive language skills, speaking, with the use of two languages as a bridge for children to get used to using English in a tiered manner. Therefore, this study uses the Classroom Action Research type with respondents, namely students aged 4-6 years. Data collection uses observation techniques that refer to observation guide instruments and documentation as additional data to enrich data acquisition. The analysis is carried out descriptively by following several stages of the cycle and comparisons between the entire cycle that runs. The result shows that bilingual digital storytelling demonstrated encouraging progress in English vocabulary acquisition and usage among early learners. However, there was a noticeable gap in developing conversational skills, as most attempts at conversation remained limited to fragmented expressions rather than complete sentences.

Abstract

In the dynamic landscape of English as a foreign language education, there is a growing imperative to develop pedagogical approaches that are not only linguistically effective but also culturally inclusive. Addressing this critical need, this study investigated the effectiveness of a local wisdom-based writing task approach in cultivating cognitive literacy among English Department students. The study employed a mixed-methods design, utilizing open-ended and closed-ended questionnaires after intervention. Findings revealed that the integration of local wisdom significantly enhanced student engagement and motivation. Furthermore, the approach effectively fostered the development of cognitive literacy skills, including critical thinking, creativity, and metacognition. Students demonstrated improved planning, organization, and self-reflection in their writing processes. These findings suggest that incorporating local wisdom into task-based writing can be an effective pedagogical approach for enhancing both writing proficiency and cognitive literacy among university students.
