Abstract

Although written corrective feedback (WCF) is provided to give students information about their writing which intends to help them make improvement, students may have different expectations of how WCF should be delivered. This study was focused on investigating English Language Education (ELE) students’ preferences for the WCF covering the preferences for amount of feedback, writing aspects to focus on, correction techniques, and tones of feedback. A number of 188 ELE students participated in this study. Using mixed-methods design to collect data, the study revealed that the students expected to always have WCF on their errors as they have desire to always make improvement. Having WCF is considered essential as some students had difficulty analyzing errors independently. Besides believing the importance of all aspects of writing, the students mentioned some reasons related to their weaknesses that require focuses on all feedback. Most of the students preferred direct feedback and indirect feedback with location and indication of error types as they valued detailed feedback. The students saw feedback in negative tone and suggestive tone as the source of improvement, while one in positive tone increased positive feelings towards writing. The findings suggest the importance of increasing the students’ awareness of how to get benefits from different WCF techniques while still accommodating their preferences.

Abstract

Teachers today must create strategies or techniques that meet both the demands of students and the times since we are today grow and develop alongside technology. A gaming technique called gamification can be used in non-game environments, like education. In addition, many students continue to believe that grammar is uninteresting and contains a lot of content. The purpose of this study is to better understand how the lecturers utilize gamification in the classroom and how students react to it when it is used to teach grammar in higher education settings. A qualitative case study methodology is used in this research approach. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation; they were then condensed, displayed, and used to make inferences and conduct verification. Twenty-three students and a lecturer took part in this investigation. The findings are broken down into two points based on the research objectives. The implementation of gamification in grammar instruction can be done in ten phases and is supported by current theory. The second discovery is that there are five possible student reactions to gamified learning, each of which relates to the positives and negatives of utilizing gamification. The results of this study should help provide further light on how gamification might be used to teach English, particularly grammar.

Abstract

Numerous strategies for teaching conversational English online are utilised although some have less value for money due to constraints including poor connectivity, constant ‘load shedding’, and lack of computing device systems. The paper investigated a suitable strategy for teaching conversational English online to English Communication Skills students registered for Module 1141 in the 2022 academic year at the University of Venda, South Africa. A qualitative research approach was adopted as in-depth knowledge and a wide range of speech exchange systems could be obtained. Three lecturers were purposively selected from a pool of seven lecturers to participate in the paper because they were easily approachable and had been teaching the module for over five years. Data were collected using observations and semi-structured face-to-face interviews. Atlas ti version 22 software was used to analyse the data as it locates codes and interprets the findings in primary data material, weighs and evaluates their importance, and visualises the often-complex relationships between them. The pilot study results indicated that the lecturers were not comfortable with using the videoconferencing strategy for teaching conversational English online. But after showing them steps for using the identified strategy, the lecturers revealed extreme indebtedness towards the process. Using the identified strategy for teaching conversational English online is highly recommended.

Abstract

Language translating process by Indonesian students is particularly suffered from many errors. Its defined strategy should be carefully watched due to completing its translating perfection. Thus, this study identifies the problematic translation ways commonly referred and used by university students in Indonesia. The mixed method using embedded design between qualitative and quantitative data with a case study approach was carried out to find the preferences of the translation method used by the students. The respondents are 50 English Department students from different levels of studying years. The result shows that Post-Editing Machine Translation (PEMT) was preferred among other translating methods. The reasons are related to the ease and quality of the translation work. 76.90% of the students responded and chose to have PEMT as the preference. However, there were only 53.8% of them implementing PEMT as the translating process, and 38.5% were familiar with Machine Translation (MT) without post-editing instead. It indicates an inconsistency in the use of the translation methods as each of them experienced and chose different type of methods. However, PEMT was placed as the most referred translating method used by the students. This suggests that the presence of technology is well utilized while still paying attention to the quality of the translation through the post-editing process.

Abstract

serving as the foundation for reflection on learning, including in classes of EBP (English for Business Purposes) as a branch of ESP (English for Specific Purposes). The recent study aims at exploring EBP students’ acceptance of the use of Google Docs as a learning platform in their class using the framework of TAM (Technology Acceptance Model). A qualitative case study was adopted by administering an open-ended questionnaire and a structured-group interview. The participants involved were one class of EBP students consisting of 18 persons at one private university in Depok, West Java, Indonesia. The findings revealed that most of the students positively accept the use of Google Docs in their EBP writing class. Particularly, based on PU (Perceived Usefulness), the students viewed that Google Docs gives them assistance to write and improve their writing skills. In the view of PEU (Perceived Ease of Use), Google Docs has been seen as a user-friendly platform. The students also evinced a fine attitude in terms of ATT (Attitude Towards Technology). In the aspect of BI (Behavioral Intention), most students highlighted their preference for the use of Google Docs in the future, both for academic and professional purposes. Recommendations for ESP instructional practices with the utilization of Google Docs and potential research in the future are forwarded.

The study explicates the utility of Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA) in developing educational resources with the intent to facilitate the acquisition of medical English terminology among nursing students. This study employs a Research and Development (R&D) methodology to devise and evaluate the efficacy of pedagogical resources centered on the Systematic Functional Approach (SFA). The purpose of the present study is to conduct a comprehensive literature review to examine the importance of medical English terminology for nursing students, as well as the role of Speech Familiarity Aid (SFA) in designing educational materials. Furthermore, this review seeks to investigate contemporary research findings concerning the effectiveness of SFA in facilitating language acquisition. The research findings reveal that learning materials based on SFA substantially enhance the acquisition of medical English terminology among nursing students, underscoring the prospect of SFA as an efficient means for the development of language learning resources.
