<![CDATA[Studies show that students who cheat at certain levels of education are more likely to do so at work or at later levels of education. One form of academic fraud is plagiarism. Some researchers claim that students deliberately plagiarize, while others plagiarize because they do not understand how to properly cite, paraphrase, or refer to sources. Therefore, this study aims to understand English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students' self-reported reason for internet plagiarism in Academic Writing class, as understanding the causes of student plagiarism is essential to properly addressing the problem. To obtain the data, a survey of respondents' reason for plagiarize was distributed to second, fourth and sixth trimester students of the Department of English in a private university. A total of 85 students participated in the survey. As a result, we found that some people, despite having a high level of understanding of plagiarism, admitted to intentionally plagiarizing for various reasons. Additionally, research shows that people do not understand that claiming work from a source as their own without acknowledging the source is part of plagiarism.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8640]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines the kinds of translingual negotiation strategies practiced by an Indonesian family living in the US. This study involved a father and son, natives of Indonesia, who had been in the US for many years. The father and son usually mix and mesh English, Indonesian, and Javanese when communicating. Two kinds of data were collected; the daily talks between the father and son were audiotaped, and follow-up interviews with the father and member checking were used to triangulate the data. The data reveals that the father and son indeed practiced Canagajarah’s (2013b) four translingual negotiation strategies: invoicing, recontextualization, interactional, and entextualization. Additionally, the interview reveals some of the father’s goals with his son’s language learning and literacy in their mother tongue. DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8990]]>

<![CDATA[This present study explores how thesis writing anxiety causes delay in thesis writing completion along with its coping strategies. It adopted narrative inquiry as the research method. The participant was one former student of English education graduate program at a state university in Central Java, Indonesia. Data were garnered through semi-structured interviews. The data were then analyzed by employing thematic analysis. The results suggest that thesis writing anxiety was caused by family and financial problems, full-time working duties and poor time management, as well as unpleasant administrative staff services. Thesis writing anxiety empirically affected thesis writing completion in terms of thesis writing procrastination as well as lack of confidence and feeling worried of making mistakes. Successful coping strategies include identifying problems and seeking solutions, establishing mutual communication with thesis supervisors and workplace stakeholders, as well as maintaining self-motivation. Practical implications and suggestions for further studies are also discussed.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8004]]>

<![CDATA[Due to the last two year Covid-19 Pandemic, the teaching learning activities were globally switched, from offline to online learning. This happened at University of Merdeka Malang, too. One of the researchers, who taught Basic Listening course at Diploma Three English Program, had to change language laboratory activities into synchronous and asynchronous activities. Inevitably, it was resulted in the teaching materials as well. The objective of this RD study is to propose the use of Internet technology through selected videos in the YouTube Channel to partially adjust the existing teaching materials in the above mentioned course. As the primary instruments, the researchers adapted the framework of Graves’ materials development and used questionnaires as the secondary instruments. Graves’ framework consists of seven components of course development processes, however, the researchers did not use or apply them all (only Steps 4, 5 and 6) since they just made partial adjustment to the existing materials usually used during the offline class. The finalproducts of this study were in the form of softcopy files given to the students as handouts. DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8738]]>

<![CDATA[In The Picture of Dorian Gray, Oscar Wilde, regarding myriad aspects of life, comes up with commendable aesthetic notions just before he serves on the table, as to them, direly cynical views. Each of the appealing concepts gives one an intellectually euphoric realization as much as each of the cynic additions, instantly, renders one confused. Surprisingly, the seemingly deliberate twists added to the aesthetic considerations make them more beautiful and thought-provoking. Wilde’s cynical parts characteristically offer an obvious liberalism which profoundly hinges upon humanity. This article intends to investigate into the narrative with the post-modern literary outlooks with the belief that such an appraisal might provide a scholastically apt understanding of Oscar Wilde.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8346]]>

<![CDATA[This study sought to prove whether there is an inclination in students’ ability before and after video-editing treatments.This study was carried out under the umbrella of quasi-experimental study as it involved one group pretes-posttest design. There were 13 students chosen through the procedure of total sampling. They were given a pretest to make 3 videos—3 minutes in duration each—in topic of Describing People, Inviting People, and Accepting and Refusing Invitation. Later, six treatments were given: three treatments of video-editing and three other were about material design. Afterwards, the post-test was essentially similar with pretest regarding the procedural means. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 by employing the formula of normality test and Z-Score to perform hypothesis testing. The results uncovered that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is consequently accepted because the rvalue obtained from the Z-Score is 2.63, which is higher than rtable= 0.47 (df=11, α=0.05, right tailed). Additionlly, the average score for the 13 samples before applying video editing procedures was 56.23, and after the treatments, this score incilned to be 79.Then in can be concuded that after obtaining the treatments, students' performance in terms of video editing abilities with reference to material design or speaking class has necessarily improved. The finding implies that it is best to train teacher and prospective teachers with video-editing ability to enable them design good and convenient teaching materials in the future where digital era has transmerged into all pedagogical aspects.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8817]]>

<![CDATA[In mastering English language skills, the learning process matters in determining the goals, including learning pronunciation. So far, research on pronunciation has emphasized pronunciation rather than the process. Thus, this study aimed to investigate students' problems and techniques for dealing with problems in acquiring pronunciation. Six English Department students were voluntarily requested to participate in this study and discuss their perspectives. In data collection process, an in-depth interview was employed. The findings found that participants had difficulties distinguishing between sounds and words, encountered novel words, had low learning desires, dealt with varied accents, and experienced interference from their language. In the other sense, they applied some strategies such as increasing exposure to English, having expert guidance, and pursuing to have a severe problem. The results of this study will play a positive role in showing the barriers experienced by students when learning pronunciation. Thus, it is hoped that the teachers will be aware of these issues, so that teaching pronunciation will be more effective.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8496]]>

<![CDATA[In spite of studies about academic dishonesty that have been conducted by many researchers, only a small number of studies have investigated academic integrity in online EFL classrooms at university level. The aim of this research is to seek about the occurrence and types of academic dishonesty as well as strategies that could be used by English teachers to overcome the problem. This research investigated the reason why EFL students tend to carry out academic dishonesty in online learning. Researchers used open-ended questions to gain the students opinion and responses. Rresults of this research shows that 55.6% of the respondents understood what was considered to be academic dishonesty and in the same percentage they also sometimes conducted academic dishonesty. In exam related violations, 61.1% of them sometimes looked up information on the web to get helps or answers. In assignment related violation, 38.9% responded that they sometimes shared answers of the task and collaborated with others on individually assigned work. In online session related violations, 38.9% showed that sometimes they participated in a live session from one device and did other activities at the same time. Then, reasons why they did academic dishonesty was because the assignment was too difficult and they did not learn about the material well. All in all, most of the respondents understood about academic integrity, but they still tend to cheat. Thus, this study would help EFL students and teachers to maintain the academy integrity.DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i2.8827]]>

<![CDATA[The Covid-19 pandemic adds a new challenge for teachers to innovate new teaching strategies during the post-pandemic. Identifying English as a foreign language (EFL) students' learning strategies, teachers' preparation, and challenges are needed to innovate a new alternative approach for a post pandemic learning activity, thus investigating them is worth studying. The study is based on the premise that the golden age of young learners influences the success of language learning. This study was conducted during the government's implementation of English as a local supplementation subject. A case study was used as the approach of the study, with an interactive model to analyze the data. Observation, field notes, interviews, and documents are used as the instruments to collect the data. The result of this study shows that oral communication is the main component of the learning activity. A lesson plan is developed with the purpose of helping teachers establish the appropriate medium. The main issues encountered by teachers are how to capture students' attention and focus during the learning activity. In addition, suggestions for further study are presented.]]>
