Abstract

The online learning environment provides a flexible learning environment where the students can learn anytime and anywhere despite the distance. Since the teaching and learning process shifts into online learning, the students should be able to manage their learning process by themselves. Implementing self-regulated online learning could help the students to be responsible for their learning process to achieve good academic performance. Several previous studies already discussed the implementation of self-regulated online learning across four language skills; listening, speaking, reading, and writing. However, in writing courses, the previous studies did not mention the specific writing text applied in self-regulated online learning. This study aimed to identify the frequency of the undergraduates’ use of forethought phase, performance phase, and self-reflection phase in self-regulated online learning toward expository and analytical writing course. The instrument used in this study was the OSEL Questionnaire which consisted of three phases: forethought phase, performance phase, and self-reflection phase. The subject enrolled in this study were 46 students from the freshmen class of the English Education program at one state university in Indonesia. In general, the result showed that three phases in self-regulated online learning toward expository and analytical writing course have medium means which were above 3.00. Only task strategies that had the lowest mean from all the sub-points were presented. Further discussion will explain previous studies and theories that support the finding of this research.

Abstract

Since the COVID-19 pandemic came up suddenly to this world, everything takes a drastic turn. The Ministry of Education and Culture Republic of Indonesia reacted to this issue by making an online learning policy Number 3 of 2020 on Prevention of COVID-19 in the Education Unit. Many education institutions adopted this policy by creating online tools such as YouTube as a resource of transition from face-to-face learning to virtual learning since it is seen as a popular medium used in online classes. This research investigates the use of YouTube as a medium in the English 1 course for non-English students at one of State Islamic University in Salatiga. YouTube is an online learning platform that enables lecturers and students to upload, view, share, and even interact through the comments column in the learning videos. A descriptive qualitative method is used to achieve the objective of the research, which involved three classes from the Early Childhood Islamic Education study program, the Islamic Elementary School study program, and the Islamic Religious Education study program as the objects in this research. The researcher limits the content of YouTube from the channel "AR," while the materials are about Degree of Comparison and Collocation. Students' responses from those three classes in the YouTube column have been analyzed to investigate the findings. The finding shows that YouTube brings a good impact on non-English students in ELT. This finding is supported by the result of the analysis answer sheet of the quiz from students, the survey on students’ perception, and other comments about the materials on the YouTube comment column. Finally, it can be concluded that YouTube can be an effective virtual teaching medium in ELT among non-English students at IAIN Salatiga based on the result of survey by respondents.

Abstract

Students majoring in communication believe that their nervousness when speaking will affect their lives. It will either limit their employment opportunities or cause them to perform poorly at work. In the digital era, English speaking is very important to communicate with other members of an organization. There are limited discussions about speaking anxiety in ESP class and students majoring in communication studies are expected to convey their messages persuasively in an organization. So, descriptive qualitative research was utilized by the researcher to describe speaking anxiety in ESP class; Types of Speaking Anxiety, Factors of Speaking Anxiety, Reducing Speaking Anxiety. Semi-structured interviews and observations were the sources in this study with 19 students involved. Three natural phenomena in speaking anxiety or research problems in speaking anxiety were analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion. The results showed that Communication Apprehension, Fear of Negative Acceptance, and Test Anxiety existed among the students in speaking class. They can overcome it using YouTube videos as references and community supports (teacher and close-friends). This study also found that students majoring in communication studies experience trait anxiety (one person), state anxiety (ten students), and situation-specific anxiety (eight students). Based on this result, further researchers related to speaking anxiety are to revise the approach using the mixed method in ESP class. These suggestions are to enrich speaking anxiety for English Specific Purposes, such as midwife students and economic students.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the learners' views and reflections on task-based instruction in teaching 21st Century literature from the Philippines and the World Subject. Specifically, the following objectives were attained: to determine the understanding of learners in the concept of task and task-based instruction, to know learners' perceptions in the implementation of task and task-based instruction used by the teacher in teaching 21st Century Literature subject, to point out the problems encountered by the students and how the students overcome those problems in performing task-based activities. 73 grade 11 students served as the respondents of this study. Using the descriptive method, specifically survey and interview, the study revealed that most students clearly understood the concept of task and task-based instruction. However, some students only agreed that performing tasks and the teacher's task-based instruction in teaching 21st Century Literature use the English language. The majority of the respondents strongly agreed that task and task-based instruction is implemented in their 21st Century Literature class. External factors, language used in the instructions written in the module, interest in literature and familiarity with literary materials, and difficulty level of task-based activities in the module are problems that the respondents encountered during the implementation of task-based instruction in their 21st Century Literature class. While seeking classmates' and teacher's assistance, teacher's motivation and teaching strategies, and self-initiative and motivation are the means for the students to overcome the difficulties they encountered in implementing the task and task-based instruction in 21st Century Literature class.

Abstract

This paper is based on research aiming to explore and evaluate the effectiveness of a game-based student response system platform, Kahoot, for teaching narrative writing. By using one group pre-test and post-test design, this quantitative research invited the eleventh-grade students of a senior high school in the academic year of 2021/2022, to actively participate in the project. In this case, the researchers administered a pre-test and post-test for measuring the significant difference in students’ scores, before and after the implementation of Kahoot. Based on the paired sample t-test result, the p-value is 0,000. In addition to that, the t-coefficient is greater than the t-table value, which is 18.436 > 1.690. It means that the difference between students’ skills in writing a narrative text before and after the use of Kahoot, is statistically significant. Specifically, Kahoot could enhance students’ writing in terms of organization, ideas development, grammar, mechanics, and writing style. Since the p-value is less than the significant level or 0,000 < 0,05, and the t-coefficient (18.436) is greater than the t-table (1.690), it can be safely concluded that Kahoot could significantly improve students’ writing skills, specifically in writing a narrative text.
