Classroom-based language assessment (CBLA) in the Indonesian context has become more significant since the shift of the assessment model from summative based assessment (Ujian Nasional or the final exam) to formative-based assessment (Asesmen Kompetensi Minimum (AKM); therefore, teachers need to develop their classroom-based language assessment literacy (CBLAL). The model places a greater emphasis on students' learning outcomes in class rather than final test scores. This study aims to examine the CBLAL level of experienced and novice EFL teachers, their perceptions of CBLAL, and their needs for CBLAL training. Quantitative and qualitative data were used in conjunction with a case study research design. The CBLAL questionnaire, adopted from Lan and Fan's work (2019), collected quantitative data from 55 EFL teachers. Meanwhile, the qualitative data were collected from four of them (novice and experienced) in the interview sessions. The CBLAL levels of 55 teachers are between functional and procedural-conceptual literacy levels. Both experienced (ETs) and novice teachers (NTs) could grasp fundamental principles in language assessment and can use them in the classroom. Although the ETs have higher levels, there is no significant difference in CBLAL levels between ETs and NTs. The study also revealed that the teachers' understandings of technical skills and language pedagogy were among the highest compared to their knowledge of theories and principles on language assessments. However, they indicated that still require professional development (PD) in CBLAL, despite their functional and procedural-conceptual literacy. The current study has pedagogical implications for both ETs and NTs. They should actively participate in various professional development activities, focusing on classroom evaluation.

Pesantren possesses a plus value to boost the idea of “go green” through its education system. Forest Watch reveals that Indonesia has lost its 18,91 millions hectare of forest since 2001 till 2014. In other words, Indonesia is on the fifth rank getting away from its big canopies. Based on this matter, some pesantren in Indonesia has taught their students to love their nature by doing real actions. Pondok Pesantren Al-Yasini in Pasuruan, Roudlotut Tholibin in Bojonegoro, Assiddiqiyah 11 in Lampung, Nu War in Bekasi, and Ridho Alloh in Temanggung have been taking an action to plant hundred thousands of trees. These achievements are pronounced through online mass media using the power of language to inspire audiences as campaign. The reciprocal correlation between environment and language is examined through an eco-linguistic study. Here, the change of language used represents the ecological change. Having to do with this issue, this dialectical ecolinguistic analysis is intended to elaborate lingual units standing for certain meanings. Collecting the data through green discourse news texts, this study confirms that dialectical eco-linguistic approach, covering three dimensions of social praxis i.e., ideological, social, and biological dimensions, related with eco-pesantren influences the people involved i.e. its speakers and readers; therefore, their attitude toward the environment is constructive e.g. being eager in planting trees

The corona virus that we've been dealing with since December 2019 resulted in unexpected emergency online instruction. Schools and universities were shuttered, face-to-face teaching and learning activities were suspended, and an emergency online teaching policy was implemented. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to identify the strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and opportunities of EFL lecturers' implementation of E-learning in EFL online classes during the Covid-19 Pandemic. A questionnaire with open-ended questions was used to collect the data. As a result of E-learning implementation, EFL instructors have become more familiar with CALL, according to the study's findings. Considered to be the drawbacks of the E-learning implementation were an unstable internet connection, a lack of direct interaction between lecturers and students, and the inability of EFL teachers to control their students. In addition, EFL instructors were required to oversee, supervise, and direct the entire assessment procedure. On the other side, English online instruction through E-learning generated chances for EFL lecturers, such as supplying more creative media or making their own instructional video.
