Abstract

This article aims to investigate the impact of Project-Based Learning (PBL) on the speaking performance and skills of second-semester students in the English Study Program at Universitas Ma’arif Lampung. PBL was employed in this study to address issues encountered in speaking classes. A pre-test was administered to 18 students from the English Study Program as part of the research conducted in March 2024. The analysis of the pre-test revealed a mean score of 54.89, with a standard deviation of 7.738 and a sample size of 18, alongside a minimum score of 44 and a maximum score of 64. The post-test results indicated an increase in the average score of students taught using PBL, suggesting a significant enhancement in both their performance and speaking skills attributable to the project-based learning approach. This underscores the efficacy of this method in yielding notable differences between pre-test and post-test results. The implementation of PBL in speaking instruction encompasses several phases, including the formulation of a project strategy, the establishment of a timeline, monitoring the progress of students and the project, analysing outcomes, and evaluating the overall experience.

Abstract

The rapid growth of the creative economy is often hampered by a mismatch between the quality of human resources and the digital literacy of younger generations. This study implements a Digital Literacy Assistance Program for Mahasantri at Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam (PTKI) in Metro City, aiming to empower them as drivers of the creative economy. Utilizing the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, the program leverages various assets, including individual skills, natural resources, and existing infrastructure. The results show that participants acquired critical digital knowledge and skills, enabling them to effectively use e-commerce platforms, expand their market reach, and enhance sales performance. Notably, the program led to a 20% increase in market reach and improvements in product branding strategies. It also raised awareness among Mahasantri about the potential of the creative economy, helping them recognize their own creative capacities and the opportunities available. This study highlights the importance of targeted digital literacy training in fostering economic empowerment and underscores the need for continued support in this area

Abstract

This autoethnographic study examines the lived experiences of learning English for Academic Purposes (EAP) within the Language Academic Preparation Program (LAPP), a key component of the Program Persiapan Studi Lanjut (PPSL) at UIN Sultan Syarif Kasim Riau. Drawing upon personal reflections and research journals, the study investigates how culturally responsive pedagogy, local wisdom, and immersive experiences shape academic language development. By engaging in activities such as traditional ceremonies, local arts performances, culinary practices, and educational field visits, the program contextualized English learning in ways that enhanced learner engagement and reinforced cultural identity. The findings suggest that EAP instruction becomes more effective and transformative when it integrates local cultural content with authentic learning contexts. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that autoethnography provides a valuable lens for capturing the emotional, intellectual, and pedagogical dimensions of language education. The main contribution of this research lies in proposing an alternative model of EAP instruction that is not only academically rigorous but also culturally grounded, offering new insights for the development of contextually relevant language education programs in Indonesia and beyond.
