Project-based Learning is still being a prominent method to be investigated. As the rapid advancement of technology has resulted in a more user-friendly virtual learning environment, this study aimed to investigate the implementation of Online PBL in teaching 4Cs. A total of 33 fifth-semester students, 22 females & 11 males, of a public university in Central Java were involved in this study. Observation and Likert-scale questionnaires were employed in collecting the data. By calculating the overall score per item, the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The result of this study shows five stages of Online PBL implementation starting from selecting the topic and the purpose, outlining the project, rehearsing the product, presenting the product, and assessing the product. Online PBL helps students to master creativity and innovation skills, communication skills, critical thinking skills, and collaboration skills. Based on the positive responses from students, Online PBL becomes a suggested method for assisting students in acquiring the 4Cs.
Dictogloss can be considered as way for integrating form and meaning in the learning context. The main objective of this research is to analyze whether: (1) Dictogloss is more effective than Direct Instruction to teach writing for the eleventh grades students, and (2) students having high motivation have better writing skill than those having low motivation for the eleventh-grade students. This article refers to an experimental study on the effectiveness of Dictogloss to teach writing skill at one of Islamic School in Surakarta, Indonesia. The sampling used in this research was cluster random sampling with two classes as sample, namely the experimental class taught using Dictogloss and the control class taught using Direct Instruction. To collect the data, there were two instruments used in this research namely, the writing test and the motivation questionnaire. After treatment was given to both classes in eight meetings, a post-test of writing to obtain data was conducted. The data were analyzed by using 2x2 Multifactor Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Before conducting the ANOVA test, pre-requisite test namely normality and homogeneity test were conducted. The result of this research shows that: (1) Dictogloss is more effective than Direct Instruction to teach writing, and (2) students having high motivation have better writing skill than those having low motivation. Therefore, it is recommended for the English teacher to apply Dictogloss in writing activity to promote an effective teaching on writing skill. In conclusion, Dictogloss can be used to improve students’ writing skill for the eleventh-grade students.
PLEASE Strategy is a mnemonic that provides learners with a road map for writing a text. It is a strategy when a teacher teaches the students an acronym to remember each step in writing. PLEASE strategy will help students to write, to start the first sentence, and to put the data information in their writing. This article refers to an experimental study on the effectiveness of PLEASE Strategy to teach writing at the eleventh grade of SMA Negeri 1 Ngemplak. The samples were two classes, experimental class which was taught using PLEASE Strategy and control class which was taught using Guided Writing Strategy. To gain the data, two instruments were use, writing test and linguistic intelligence test. The data were, then, analyzed by using Multifactor Analysis of Variance ANOVA 2x2 and Tukey test. Before conducting the ANOVA test, pre-requisite test namely normality and homogeneity test were conducted. The findings of this research are: (1) PLEASE strategy is more effective than Guided Writing Strategy to teach writing; (2) The students having high linguistic intelligence have better writing skill than those having low linguistic intelligence; and (3) There is an interaction between teaching strategies and students’ linguistic intelligence in teaching writing.PLEASE Strategy is a mnemonic that provides learners with a road map for writing a text.

Task-based language teaching is an approach applying tasks as a key point of pedagogical instruments. This study explores teachers’ perceptions of task-based language teaching in the secondary school context in Indonesia. Descriptive qualitative research design is used with data collected by using questionnaires. This study used purposive sampling to choose the sample. The findings showed that most of the junior and senior high school EFL teachers appeared to embrace positive attitudes towards practicing task-based language teaching, even though their knowledge of task-based language teaching is still low. All teachers in the study said they have implemented task-based language teaching in the classroom. All of them will continue to use TBLT. The implication of the study is to inspire other researchers to investigate task-based language teaching with greater confidence. The researcher hopes that this research will motivate curriculum designers and other researchers to explore more fully the views of those who are key to successful classroom implementation.
This research was done in order to know students' perception toward integrating ICT in English Language Learning and also to find out problem that may faced by students during the ICT integration. This research used quantitative method in order to describe students' perception toward the use of ICT in ELL. This research involved English students from a state university in Jambi province as the respondents. The data were collected by using questionnaires adapted from Chutopama (2004). The questionnaires consisted of items related to the use of ICT for their learning, their reason(s) of using ICT, as well as the problem(s) encountered through the use of ICT for the learning. After that, the data were analyzed by using SPSS 16 that pointed at a point in which the students agreed that ICT is beneficial for their learning process, especially in terms of accessing information for learning. Nevertheless, employing ICT in learning needs to be supported by sufficient equipment, and needs to educate the students to be an agile user for better, more effective, and more efficient process of learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
