Using Technology in Teaching English Language: Perceptions of Teachers and Students

Faisal Nasution — 2025-06-11

The integration of technology in English language teaching has brought about a paradigm shift in educational methodologies. It offers a diverse range of tools and resources that facilitate interactive, flexible, and student-centered learning environments. This study explores the perceptions of teachers and students on the use of technology in English language education, focusing on its benefits, challenges, and overall impact. Teachers perceive technology as a valuable aid in enhancing student engagement and providing access to authentic language materials, while also expressing concerns about dependency, technical issues, and unequal access. Students, on the other hand, appreciate the interactivity and flexibility provided by technological tools but acknowledge distractions and over-reliance as potential drawbacks. The research employs qualitative methods, including semi-structured interviews with teachers and focus group discussions with students, to uncover nuanced perspectives. Findings indicate that while technology enhances accessibility and personalized learning, its effectiveness depends on factors such as teacher preparedness, balanced usage, and equitable access. This study underscores the need for professional development for educators and strategic policies to address disparities in access. A balanced approach combining traditional and technological methods is recommended to optimize the potential of digital tools in English language teaching

This thesis research departs from problems seen in the field, where currently many educators still use conventional media. The background of this thesis is that the only media used by teachers in the eyes of Jurisprudence is the blackboard in the school. Even though at the school there are infocus facilities that can be used as learning media, teachers also do not utilize technology-based media. This has an impact on students' interest in learning and the quality of learning. Therefore, the researcher wants to develop an animated video on the Islamic Jurisprudence subject, using the Powtoon application at MTsN 15 Tanah Datar. The aim of this research is to determine the validity and practicality of the product being developed, namely animated videos on the Islamic Jurisprudence subject, the material on Mavaris. This research uses a type of field research, with the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implement and Evaluation) development model method. The research procedure begins with the needs analysis stage of product development, the design or product planning stage, the product development stage, the implementation or product testing stage and the evaluation stage. Data collection tools include validation sheets and questionnaires. The product trial subjects are located at MTsN 15 Tanah Datar.

This quasi-experimental classroom action research examined the effectiveness of creative art activities in enhancing attention among early childhood learners in Thailand's southern border provinces. The sample consisted of five kindergarten (K3) students from Ban Yaring School in Pattani Province, selected via purposive sampling based on preliminary attention assessments. Over a period of three months, participants engaged in 12 creative art sessions specifically designed to be developmentally appropriate and culturally relevant to the local Muslim context. Quantitative findings revealed a statistically significant improvement in children's attention levels (p < .05). Qualitative observations and interviews further indicated that children could concentrate on tasks for longer durations, exhibited better self-control, and parents reported a noticeable reduction in unnecessary screen time at home—demonstrating concrete positive changes in daily behavior. The study suggests that contextually relevant, age-appropriate creative art activities can serve as an effective tool for fostering attention development in young children, particularly within multicultural settings characterized by ethnic, religious, and linguistic diversity.

Systematic Literature Review : Penerapan VIKOR Dalam Sistem Pendukung Keputusan

Ryan Amanda — 2025-06-11

This study presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on the application of the VIKOR method in multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) within the context of Decision Support Systems (DSS). VIKOR is widely acknowledged as a powerful tool for generating compromise solutions when dealing with alternatives that involve conflicting criteria. The primary objectives of this review are to identify the key benefits of applying the VIKOR method, to analyze the common challenges encountered during its implementation in various domains, and to explore how the method has been modified or integrated with other decision-making approaches to improve its effectiveness. The literature was gathered through Google Scholar, applying strict inclusion criteria that focused on peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2024. Out of an initial pool of 50 articles, 10 high-quality and relevant studies were selected for detailed analysis. The results indicate that VIKOR offers substantial advantages in handling complex and non-commensurable criteria, making it well-suited for DSS applications. However, challenges such as dependency on accurate criteria weighting, computational complexity, and difficulty in interpreting compromise conditions persist. Notably, the integration of VIKOR with methods such as AHP, FUCOM, ELECTRE, and ROC has been shown to enhance decision quality and robustness. These findings contribute to the development of more adaptive, transparent, and data-driven DSS models for future implementation..
