Abstract

EFL learners inevitably will enter the world of academia, which makes it mandatory for them to write academic writings, especially in the form of research articles. They are obliged to broaden knowledge in the field of their interest by conducting research. Unfortunately, academic writing has always been a serious challenge for them. Writing research articles indeed requires them to be familiar with the writing guidelines, particularly about how the ideas are developed. This present study is therefore intended to assist EFL learners, particularly those who have just started their academic writing experience. Insight and ideas on how to write a research article are presented in this paper. To do that, a qualitative methodology on discourse analysis was employed. The data was taken from a research article focusing on discourse marker comparisons between academic and non-academic writings. The article is broken down in detail to provide a clear picture of how it is constructed by the authors. The analysis revealed that even though it contains some minor weaknesses, the research article overall is well-written and follows the author guidelines. This study allows EFL learners to receive more explicit input and, hopefully, adapt and adopt the steps of how the article is written.

Abstract

The problem in this study is the low ability to solve mathematical problems in geometry materials (square, rectangle, and triangle).  An effort to overcome this problem is to conduct learning using the PREMIER model, which combines Project  Based Learning, Realistic Mathematics Education, and Course Review Horay. This research uses a qualitative approach with the type of Classroom Action Research (CAR), carried out with four meetings. The subject of the study was a grade IV student of a public elementary school in Banjarmasin City in the academic year of 2021/2022, with a total of 13 students. The data analysis used is qualitative and quantitative. The results of this study show that student activity has increased, which at meeting one only reached 38.5% until at meeting four, it increased to 92.3% with a very active category.

Abstract

Self-assessment in language learning is important to understanding students' needs and challenges in mastering Arabic and English skills, especially for those outside the language department. Therefore, this study aims to explore the differences in the level of language learning difficulty and the readiness of students from non-language majors to learn Arabic and English. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a survey method, involving 109 students from three Islamic universities in the Cirebon area as respondents. Data was collected through a questionnaire consisting of two main components: the language learning difficulty scale and the learning readiness scale. Data analysis was carried out to compare the difficulty level felt with the student's readiness to learn English. The results showed that both variables had the same response in terms of difficulty and readiness to learn. The classification of difficulty in Arabic and English is the same, namely at a moderate level with a percentage of 64% and 51%, and the dominant indicator that is considered difficult for students to master is the fluency indicator. In addition, the comparison of learning readiness in Arabic and English did not differ significantly. The motivation indicators of both languages have the same percentage of 35%. Thus, the motivation of non-language students to learn Arabic and English is higher than the other two indicators.
