This study explores the inclusive teaching strategies employed at SLB Bandung and their impact on the communication abilities of children with Down syndrome. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative design, the research provides a detailed examination of the methods, challenges, and outcomes within the context of a special education school in Bandung, Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with teachers, classroom observations, and document analysis to ensure a comprehensive understanding. The findings reveal that individualized instruction, visual aids, and frequent communication practice are pivotal strategies used by teachers to enhance the communication skills of children with Down syndrome. These methods align with best practices in special education and are positively received by both educators and parents. However, significant challenges remain, including limited resources, the need for specialized training, and notably, the absence of speech therapy services at the school. Classroom observations and document analysis highlight the dynamic and interactive nature of these inclusive strategies. The commitment and creativity of teachers in implementing these strategies, despite the challenges, are evident. The study concludes that while inclusive teaching strategies significantly contribute to the communication development of children with Down syndrome, addressing resource limitations and incorporating speech therapy services are essential for maximizing student outcomes. Recommendations include enhancing collaboration among educators, policymakers, and therapists to improve the quality of inclusive education and ensure equitable support for all students.

This study aims at describing critical thinking subskills taught by Indonesian EFL teachers in academic writing and explaining how they taught the subskills. This qualitative study used two Indonesian EFL teachers who taught academic writing at one of state universities in Surabaya. Data were collected using observation checklist and field note. The obtained data were analyzed using interactive model analysis. Results showed that there were three out of forty critical thinking subskills that were not taught by the teachers namely providing and selecting the best examples, using credible sources, and maintaining the consistency of tenses choice. Another finding showed that there were seven ways of teaching critical thinking subskills namely individual consultation and feedback, class explanation, peer-feedback, groupwork of ideas construction and discussion, general class feedback, analysis task, and work review and discussion. This study suggests that EFL teachers can use the forty critical thinking subskills in teaching writing through one of the seven ways of teaching found.

Indonesian students often struggle with English-speaking proficiency due to limited practice opportunities and lack of confidence. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a mandatory English Day program at SMA 90, where students were required to use English exclusively with consequences for non-compliance. A rigorous experimental design, incorporating both pretest and post-test measurements, was used to investigate the English Day program's impact. Seventy students were randomly divided into an experimental group participating in the program and a control group. Utilizing a structured oral test to assess pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and fluency, significant enhancements were found in all areas for the experimental group after the program (p < 0.001), with an average improvement of 5.11 points compared to the control group. This study concludes that the mandatory English Day program is effective in enhancing English-speaking proficiency in non-native English-speaking environments.
