The importance of integrating reading and writing activities in ESL/EFL classes cannot be overstated, especially in Indonesia where low literacy levels and reading interest present a challenge for teachers. This study conducted a literature review of 120 articles and books over the last 10 years taken from ZLibrary and Google Scholar's free database to identify effective strategies for incorporating reading and writing activities into the classroom that can be applied in many contexts and countries, including Indonesia. It was found that exposing students to various English text structures through these activities can greatly enhance their writing skills. By examining this literature, the study identifies 6 effective strategies for integrating reading and writing activities in ESL/EFL classes, namely summarizing, paraphrasing, short story writing, comparing and contrasting, discovery learning, and project-based learning. Teachers can employ these strategies to interplay reading and writing activities, helping students develop critical thinking skills, vocabulary, and writing abilities. In conclusion, it is clear that integrating reading and writing activities in ESL/EFL classes can provide a comprehensive approach to teaching and nurture students' writing skills, even in countries with low literacy levels and limited reading interest like Indonesia. Future research should explore additional effective strategies for integrating these activities.

Teacher agency is generally accepted as a strategy that teachers employ to face educational challenges. This article presents the result of a qualitative case study that examined learning difficulties that university students face during their study and prospects of exercising agency in facing the students’ learning difficulties. The current study was conducted at a postgraduate English department in a government University in West Nusa Tenggara. The participants of this study include three students in their third semester in the academic year 2020/2021 and three university English teachers who were purposively selected. Being qualitative in nature, this study used in-depth interviews with the students to obtain data on their learning difficulties. In-depth interviews were also conducted to the university English teachers to collect data on prospects of exercising their agency in dealing with learning difficulties facing the students. The collected data were then analyzed using the following steps: identifying, classifying, describing, and explaining. Data analysis indicated that the students experienced difficulties in reading and writing. The results of the study also revealed prospects of teacher agency exercise in helping students cope with their learning difficulties as enabled by specific conditions related to teachers’ pedagogical knowledge and teachers’ collaborative cultures.

Besides, it also supports students in producing a good piece of writing.…”

Students’ difficulties in mastering writing skills are exacerbated by teachers’ limited instruction in writing classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The present study aims to find out whether Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is effective in increasing distance learners’ writing skills and motivation to learn. This study employed the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method involving 13 students of twelfth-grade SMKN 1 Bungaraya, chosen through one-stage cluster sampling. This research was conducted online, synchronously, and asynchronously. The questionnaire, observation, and test results show that the PjBL approach allows students to be more engaged and creative in distance learning. The implementation of PjBL through comic strip creation has also driven students to increase their writing skills. It was evidenced by the increase in the student’s scores. The pretest score was 60.53, which increased after post-test I to 70.77, and continued to increase to 80 at the end of Cycle II.
