Abstract

This study will seek to find out the effectiveness of the immersive English environment in the Bidan Dormitory in developing the language and speaking confidence of EFL learners. In this research study, qualitative data collection methods were employed through diary entries of the students, observation, and interviews with the camp supervisor. The results of the study showed that continuous exposure to English, peer interaction, and structured activities facilitated linguistic proficiency and confidence. At first, the students were battling with fear, embarrassment, and a limited vocabulary due to the strict English-only rule; however, their skills improved significantly through consistent practice supported by operant conditioning principles of rewards and penalties. According to Vygotsky's Social Constructivism Theory, peer interaction and supportive community created a collaborative learning atmosphere, while some structured activities such as Morning Class and Camp Night Party aligned with Long's Interaction Hypothesis, offering active participation opportunities despite additional support needs for lower-achieving students. This immersive environment integrates the behaviorist, interactionist, and constructivist approaches to language learning so well that it highlights a number of tailored interventions, such as study clubs and personalized mentoring, that may be required to support less confident learners. The paper also confirms the potential of an immersive setting in second language acquisition and recommends that future research investigate how such settings might respond to the diverse needs of learners.

Abstract

English proficiency is essential in a globalized world, particularly in academic and professional settings. This study examines students' perceptions of using Busuu, an online language learning application, to enhance their speaking skills. It also looked at students' views on their experience of the platform, including its advantages and disadvantages. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, among sixty-eight speaking class students at the University of Muhammadiyah Malang. Data were collected through a Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) questionnaire and in-depth interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were subjected to thematic analysis. The findings reveal that students generally perceive Busuu as a useful and user-friendly tool for improving speaking skills, pronunciation, and independent learning. The application's structured exercises, real-time feedback, and accessibility contributed to its positive reception. However, challenges such as technical issues, limited free features, and content limitations were identified as barriers to effective utilization.

Abstract

The application of a Project-Based Learning (PBL) strategy and the use of video as a teaching medium for narrative writing are the main objectives of this project. The objective is to gauge the method's efficacy by looking at how grade XI students at SMA Negeri 21 Bandung perceive it. The study employs a survey design and a quantitative methodology. Descriptive statistical analysis and a questionnaire with a 5-level Likert scale were used to gather data. The validity and reliability of the research tool have been examined (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.906). The results showed that most students positively perceived PBL and video media, with an average score above 3.47 ("High" category). Students stated that PBL helps them understand the material, increase motivation, and study activeness. The implication is that video media effectively facilitates understanding concepts and increases writing confidence. This study implies that PBL and video media can be applied effectively in English language learning, significantly improving students' narrative text-writing skills. These two approaches may offer educators a workable way to raise the standard of writing instruction, particularly when it comes to teaching English.
