Abstract

ABSTRACTThe educational problems of children of Indonesian migrant workers who attend the Kota Kinabalu Indonesian School (SIKK) generally revolve around the problem of them not continuing their education to graduate level. This happens because they do not have university references and limited access to information to be able to continue their studies. More SIKK students come from Eastern Indonesia, specifically South and West Sulawesi. This encourages community service groups to carry out community service programs in Kinabalu City, Malaysia. This activity needs to be carried out to increase public knowledge, especially children of Indonesian migrant workers, about the importance of continuing their studies at university and to provide information about scholarship services. The service process is carried out in 3 stages, namely planning, implementation and evaluation. This activity went smoothly and was well received by the Indonesian Consulate General in Kinabalu City, SIKK and the Children of Indonesian Migrant Workers

Abstract

Teaching anxiety is feeling powerless and experiencing tension in teaching. A high level of anxiety affects the quality of teaching performance and teachers’ teaching resilience. This study aims to describe teaching anxiety levels and coping strategies of EFL novice teachers in teaching four English skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing). This study employed a descriptive quantitative design. The data were collected by using online surveys. Total sampling was employed, and ten novice teachers of Islamic schools in Sidrap regency, South Sulawesi, completed online questionnaires adapted from DASS 42 and the COPE scale. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics. The findings showed that EFL novice teachers experience severe anxiety in teaching productive skills (speaking 15.5 and writing 15.1) and moderate anxiety in teaching receptive skills (listening 13.8 and reading 14.8).EFL novice teachers used problem focused strategies more than emotion-focused strategies to combat their anxiety.Keywords: Teaching Anxiety; Coping Strategy; EFL Novice Teachers

Abstract

This study aims to enhance the pedagogical competence of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers through in-service training in Pinrang Regency. Pedagogical competence is a key component of teaching quality, encompassing the understanding of student characteristics, curriculum development, instructional delivery, and learning assessment. The research employed a mixed-method approach using a convergent parallel design, collecting both quantitative and qualitative data simultaneously. Quantitative data were obtained through pre-tests and post-tests using pedagogical knowledge assessments, while qualitative data were gathered via semi-structured interviews with six EFL teachers. The findings indicate that in-service training significantly improved teachers’ pedagogical competence, as evidenced by the increase in pre-test and post-test scores. Most participants reported that the training enhanced their understanding of learning theories, enabled them to design more effective teaching strategies, and increased their confidence in classroom management. However, some challenges were identified in the practical implementation of the training content, particularly due to limited institutional support. This study highlights the importance of sustained, context-specific teacher development programs that are supported by responsive educational policies. The results are expected to serve as a reference for improving teacher training strategies, especially in under-resourced educational settings.

Abstract

This scoping study examines the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Project-Based Learning (PBL) for diversified English language training and its benefits, drawbacks, and trends. Arksey and O'Malley's approach and PRISMA-ScR systematically review peer-reviewed articles from the last decade from Google Scholar, Scopus, ERIC, DOAJ, PubMed, and Science Direct. A complete literature search, inclusion-based selection, data extraction, and thematic analysis are used. AI can improve PBL by offering individualized learning, real-time feedback, and immersive learning settings. Intelligent virtual assistants, smart grading systems, and adaptive learning technologies provide personalized instruction that improves learning results and inclusivity. However, the analysis also notes ethical issues connected to data privacy and algorithmic biases and the need for teacher training to use AI in schools effectively. Despite these obstacles, AI in PBL can transform English language instruction by encouraging critical thinking, cooperation, and communication. This scoping review concludes that AI in PBL can transform differentiated English language instruction. To fully realize the benefits of AI-integrated PBL and improve English language learning for all students, research and innovation must continue.
