The complexity of foreign language learning and its restricted time to learn in the classroom need proactive efforts from the English students outside the classroom with full initiative and effort. This study tended to investigate to what extent students’ autonomous learning activities outside the classroom to master English (four English skills). This study applied a descriptive quantitative design. It was conducted at a state university in Majene, West Sulawesi, Indonesia in the academic year 2021/2022. The population was English education students in the second and third years. There were 62 students who participated in this research. They were selected by using a convenience sampling technique. To gain the data, this research employed a questionnaire as a research instrument which consists of 16 items of statements. The data, then, were analyzed by employing descriptive statistics. Based on the data analysis, it was found that students’ autonomous learning activities outside the classroom are still limited to activities that are entertaining for them. Apart from that, it has not been found that their extra efforts are done independently to become more proficient in every English skill. This indicates that students are still passive learners. By knowing the independent learning efforts carried out by students out of the classroom, English lecturers are expected to be able to design policies or teaching strategies to guide students so that they can increase their efforts by optimizing the wealth of available independent learning resources.
This study aims to determine the forms of the fulfillment of education rights for children in conflict with the criminal law in Indonesia through the "Independent School" program and the factors hindering its practice. It was field research in the form of a case study with data collection techniques: observation and interviews. The research findings reveal that the fulfillment of the right to education for children conflicts with the criminal law (ABH) already carried out but not optimally as regulated in Permen PPPA No. 15 of 2010. This can be seen from the efforts of the staff at LPKA to open non-formal classes even though they do not have adequate classrooms and facilities and the unavailability of professional teaching staff. The inhibiting factor is the absence of human resources in the form of professional teaching staff and limited facilities and infrastructure. As a result, the implementation of education did not work well because the teaching staff did not have an official educational background, and teaching activities were only performed as additional duties as staff at LPKA. The study results show that the LPKA staff's role is vast in providing education to ABH regularly to fulfill education rights. The implications are expected to become input for the LPKA Class II Maros policy to provide management and learning techniques to staff and input for the central government to recruit teaching staff and social workers as well as the provision of facilities and infrastructure.
