The transformation of traditional education into hybrid and full online education in the pandemic era has affected the art of teaching and learning for all stakeholders, including teachers and students in the Indonesian tertiary education settings. Not only has the teaching-learning environment been different, but the technology use is also carefully determined due to the available access. This article aims to review the research studies on online English Language Teaching, mainly in the four language skills and language components, conducted between March 1, 2020, and January 31, 2022. To address the current research objective, the database search was focused on the articles indexed by Science and Technology Index (SINTA) ranging between levels 1-2. There were 909 articles in total and the data set included 24 articles. The results show that the topical foci of the works were the use of applications and methods for writing (42%), speaking (25%), grammar (13%), reading (8%), listening (8%), and combined skills (4%) respectively. This paper presents not only the identification, analysis, and critiques of the main streams in the published works, but also emphasizes the overview of each work. As a major finding of the review, the current Systematic Literature Review (SLR) suggests the need for more orientation on empirical studies in the areas of language skills teaching employing technology during this pandemic and subsequently post-pandemic era in the Indonesian tertiary education settings.
Learner autonomy is considered one of the essential factors affecting students' success in language learning. Students who have autonomy can manage and apply learning strategies to advance their language skills. It means learner autotomy will also help students improve their writing skills. This study aims to examine the level of learner autonomy of higher education students and its relationship with their writing skills. This is a quantitative study that examines the correlation between the two variables. A learner autonomy questionnaire and a writing test were used to collect quantitative data, which were then analyzed descriptively using the SPSS program. The sample included 125 undergraduate students from the Teacher Training and Education Faculty in Indonesia. An analysis of the Pearson Product Moment correlation was conducted to determine whether learner autonomy and writing skills had a significant and positive correlation. The finding showed a significant and positive correlation between the degree of learner autonomy and students' writing skills. This indicates that students with greater autonomy benefit from developing good writing abilities. This study also discovered that learner autonomy is one of the characteristics examined to predict students' learning achievement. From the results of the study, some recommendations on how to promote learner autonomy in language classrooms are provided.
