This study explores the perceived benefits and challenges of using ChatGPT in supporting students during the thesis writing process. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with three master’s students who used ChatGPT in writing their theses. Five themes emerged: supporting research idea and topic development, organizing thesis structure and content, supporting literature exploration and conceptual understanding, supporting academic language and writing development, and supporting revision and writing efficiency. Participants perceived ChatGPT as helping them generate research ideas, organize their thesis structure, understand theory and methodology, revise drafts, overcome ideation barriers, and improve their academic writing and writing efficiency. However, participants also reported challenges, including the need to verify AI-generated references and citation information, repetitive responses, and language output that sounded overly complex or machine-generated. The study concludes that, based on these participants’ experiences, ChatGPT can serve as a valuable academic writing support tool when used critically and responsibly in higher education contexts.

Pronunciation is an essential component of language that underpins communicative competence in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction. This study investigates the effectiveness of short-story media in improving the pronunciation skills of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 6 Palu, with a specific focus on the target consonant and vowel phonemes (/θ/, /i:/, /ð/, /ə/, /ʃ/, and /æ/). Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, 62 students were divided into an experimental group (Class VIII C, n = 32) instructed through short stories with audio-visual model scaffolding, and a control group (Class VIII B, n = 30) taught via conventional song-based activities. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to evaluate students' accurate articulation of phonemes. The findings revealed that the experimental group achieved a significant increase in mean score from baseline (M = 31.56) to post-intervention (M = 64.37), outperforming the control group's post-test mean score (M = 59.66). Inferential statistical analysis yielded a calculated t-value of 4.634, exceeding the critical t-table threshold of 1.671 at a 0.05 significance level (df = 60). The results demonstrate that short stories serve as an engaging and pedagogically effective contextual medium that enhances EFL students' phonemic discrimination, articulation accuracy, and structural familiarity.

This article revisits data from a quasi-experimental study of the Herringbone technique in reading instruction for eighth-grade EFL learners at MTs Negeri 1 Palu. Rather than repeating the original mean-score comparison, the study provides a transparent secondary statistical reanalysis of the student-level pre-test and post-test scores reported in the research record. Fifty-four students participated, with 27 students in the Herringbone group and 27 in the comparison group. The original instructional treatment was delivered across six meetings and used a visual Herringbone diagram to guide learners in identifying who, what, when, where, why, and how in recount texts. The reanalysis indicates that the Herringbone group increased from a mean of 41.85 to 72.22, whereas the comparison group increased from 44.44 to 60.92. The mean gain difference was 13.89 points. Based on the student-level scores listed in the source record, the independent-samples comparison of gain scores produced t(52) = 9.39, and the standardized between-group effect was very large (Cohen’s d = 2.55; Hedges’ g = 2.52). Normalized gain was 0.52 for the Herringbone group and 0.30 for the comparison group. These results strengthen the interpretation that the visual questioning framework was associated with substantially greater reading gains. The article also identifies a discrepancy between the t value reported in the original research record (2.353) and the value obtained from the listed student-level scores, highlighting the importance of transparent statistical reporting.

This study explored how English learning and pedagogical practices were represented in Dead Poets Society, focusing on the film’s multimodal combination of dialogue, visual scenes, classroom activities, and teacher-student interaction. A qualitative design was employed using qualitative content analysis and multimodal interpretation. Selected scenes were identified, coded, categorized, and interpreted in relation to student-centered learning, literature-based language learning, critical thinking, learner autonomy, and teacher-student relationships. The findings showed that the film represented English learning as more than linguistic knowledge, involving interpretation, personal expression, critical reflection, and learner agency. The analysis also revealed tensions between progressive and traditional educational models. The study concludes that Dead Poets Society can serve as a valuable multimodal resource for English Language Teaching and teacher education. However, its use requires structured learning activities, teacher guidance, and critical discussion to connect cinematic representations with contemporary pedagogical practices and meaningful classroom learning experiences in diverse educational contexts today.

Listening is one of the most challenging skills for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners because spoken language must be processed in real time and may involve unfamiliar vocabulary, accents, pronunciation, and speech rates. This article examines the potential of English podcasts for improving students’ listening skills. A quantitative quasi-experimental approach with a pre-test and post-test control group design is proposed, involving an experimental group receiving podcast-based instruction and a control group receiving conventional listening instruction. Previous empirical studies indicate that podcast-based instruction can improve listening comprehension and support motivation, learner autonomy, and engagement. The discussion further indicates that podcasts are most effective when supported by structured pre-listening, while-listening, and post-listening activities, purposeful repetition, scaffolding, and feedback. English podcasts can therefore serve as a flexible digital resource for developing listening skills when content and instructional tasks are carefully selected.

The integration of artificial intelligence in language learning provides new opportunities for developing more contextual and meaningful listening experiences. This study explores the utilization of ElevenLabs in critical listening instruction and students’ social-emotional experiences during ElevenLabs-based listening activities in Indonesian Language and Literature Education. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, supported by descriptive numerical data to enrich the interpretation of learning responses and critical listening performance. Data were collected through classroom observations, critical listening ability analysis, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The participants consisted of 25 students involved in classroom observation and critical listening assessment, while eight students participated in interviews related to their social-emotional experiences. Data were analyzed thematically through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that students responded positively to ElevenLabs-based listening activities, particularly regarding voice clarity, listening focus, and emotional engagement. Descriptive assessment data showed that most students were categorized as highly developed in critical listening performance following the learning activity, with the highest achievement observed in the understanding and reflecting dimensions, while interpreting remained an area requiring further support. The interview findings revealed that social awareness was identified in the largest number of informants, reflected in students’ ability to understand situations and consider others’ perspectives. These findings suggest that ElevenLabs can function as an audio stimulus within critical listening activities and provide opportunities for students’ social-emotional reflection. However, its implementation requires integration with pedagogical strategies, such as discussion, reflective questioning, and argumentative activities, to facilitate deeper meaning-making processes.

Writing formal texts in Indonesian language classes often poses cognitive challenges for Junior High School (SMP) students transitioning from regional languages or informal registers to standard Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia baku). This Systematic Literature Review (SLR) examines the implementation of translanguaging—the flexible use of students' entire linguistic repertoires—as a pedagogical scaffolding strategy in Indonesian writing instruction. Guided by the PRISMA framework, a systematic screening of Scopus, Google Scholar, SINTA, and Portal Garuda yielded 25 empirical articles published between 2021 and 2026. The thematic synthesis reveals three primary findings: (1) translanguaging is most frequently utilized during pre-writing and drafting stages, allowing students to explore ideas bilingually before editing into standard Indonesian; (2) the approach was consistently associated with reduced writing anxiety and enhanced text coherence; and (3) primary challenges include language purism ideologies among educators and a structural misalignment with monolingual summative assessments. The findings suggest that translanguaging spaces could be more explicitly accommodated within the national curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka). By focusing specifically on standard Indonesian language acquisition in multilingual SMP classrooms, this review addresses a critical gap in a literature traditionally dominated by EFL contexts.

Language shift is a major challenge for the maintenance of local and endangered languages, particularly when younger generations increasingly use a dominant language in everyday communication. This study examines intergenerational changes in language use among the Padoe community in East Luwu, South Sulawesi, with particular attention to the use of Padoe and Bahasa Indonesia in family and community interactions. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed involving three generational groups: children, adults, and elders. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, observations, and document analysis, and were analyzed thematically. The findings reveal a clear intergenerational pattern of language shift. Older speakers demonstrate relatively strong competence and continue to use Padoe, particularly in interactions with other older community members. Adult speakers occupy an intermediate position, using Bahasa Indonesia more frequently while maintaining limited and mixed use of Padoe, especially in interactions with older family members. Among children, Bahasa Indonesia is strongly dominant, accounting for 91.33% of reported family language use, while Padoe accounts for only 2.67%. The findings also show that children’s active competence in Padoe is considerably weaker than that of older generations. These patterns indicate that the main challenge to Padoe maintenance lies in the weakening of intergenerational transmission and the declining use of Padoe in everyday family communication. Strengthening the use of Padoe within the family is therefore important for sustaining the language across generations.

This study aims to describe (1) the type of task word, (2) the function of the task word, and (4) the grammatical meaning of the task word contained in the text of the translation of folklore in Gorontalo language by students in grades X-2 of SMA Negeri 1 Telaga. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. The data in this study is in the form of lingual units of Gorontalo language task words contained in the translation of 10 folklore by students in grades X-2 of SMA Negeri 1 Telaga. Data collection techniques are carried out through reading, recording, and documentation techniques. Data analysis uses the Miles and Huberman model which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions or verification.

The data in this study is in the form of lingual units of Gorontalo language task words contained in the translation of 10 folklore by students in grades X-2 of SMA Negeri 1 Telaga. Data collection techniques are carried out through reading, recording, and documentation techniques. Data analysis uses the Miles and Huberman model which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions or verification. The results of the study show that based on their type, Gorontalo language function words found in Gorontalo folklore translation texts include five types, namely connective words, prepositions, adverbs, interjections, and article. The grouping refers to classification (Alitu et al., 1988:100) and is supported by the division of word classes (Pateda, 1977:25). In addition to the correct use of task words, data on the use of inappropriate task words were also found as an illustration of the extent to which students understand the use of Gorontalo language task words in translating folklore. Based on their function, conjunctions are used to express the relationship of addition, comprehension, limitation, opposition, causality, condition, concession, effect, purpose, comparison, affirmation, deadline, sequence of events. Prepositions are used to express the relationship of place and time, origin, direction/destination, and the object of action. Adverbs function to provide descriptions of aspects of duration, time, state, frequency, quantity and modality. Interposition serves to express the emotional reactions of the character and call. A verb serves to mark certain nouns such as character identity, gender, and respect. The findings of the function of the verb assignment were analyzed based on Fries's view (in Nikelas et al. 1985:6) regarding its distribution in sentences. Based on its grammatical meaning, the task word found, arises as a result of the functioning of the word in the sentence structure determined by the context of the sentence through the relationship between words, phrases, clauses and sentences that state the meaning of the relationship of addition, affirmation, contradiction, effect, duration, continuity, time, quantity, modality, conjecture, emotional response, as well as the subject marker of the perpetrator or owner analyzed based on the view (Chaer (2014) and Pateda (2011) which states that grammatical meaning is a meaning that arises due to the functioning of words in sentences. The results of the study show that the use of function word words in the translation of Gorontalo folklore includes conjunctions, prepositions, adverbs, interjections, and verbs with their various functions and grammatical meanings.
