AI Chatbots in ELT: A systematic review of pedagogical use and challenges in higher education
No full textThe advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has significantly impacted the field of education, particularly in English Language Teaching (ELT) at the higher education level. One prominent innovation is the use of AI-based chatbots as interactive learning partners. This study aims to systematically examine the pedagogical roles, potentials, and implementation challenges of AI chatbots in the context of ELT in Indonesian higher education institutions. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, this study analyzes 56 articles published in nationally indexed journals (SINTA 1 to 6) between 2020 and 2025. The analysis is grounded in the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Second Language Acquisition (SLA) frameworks, focusing on three main domains of challenges: technical, pedagogical, and affective. Findings indicate that AI chatbots such as ChatGPT, ELSA Speak, and Gemini play pivotal roles as writing assistants, intelligent tutors, and automated evaluation tools in English language instruction. The use of chatbots has been shown to improve students\u27 writing and speaking skills, support autonomous learning, and enhance motivation and engagement. However, implementation still faces significant challenges, including infrastructure limitations, low digital literacy among instructors, risks of plagiarism, and cultural resistance to technology. The study recommends continuous technical and pedagogical training, strategic integration of AI into the curriculum, and the development of ethical and regulatory policies to ensure the effective and responsible use of AI in higher education
Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in teaching writing and presentation skills: An analysis within the Kurikulum Merdeka
No full textProject-Based Learning (PjBL) has gained growing recognition as an effective approach in language teaching and learning. However, its application in developing students’ writing and presentation skills remains underexplored, particularly within the implementation of Kurikulum Merdeka in Indonesia, which emphasizes 21st-century skills. This research aims to explore the stages in implementing PjBL to teach writing and presentation skills in K-12 learners in Indonesia. This study employed a qualitative descriptive design. The participant of this research is an English teacher who actively implemented PjBL in the classroom. In collecting data, researchers used observation, in-depth interviews, and document review, including lesson plans, modules, and syllabi. Then, the data were analyzed using thematic analysis to clarify detailed information, and the technique of triangulation was employed as a means of ensuring the trustworthiness of the data. The findings revealed three primary stages of PjBL implementation in teaching writing and presentation skills: planning, implementation, and reporting stages. Planning stages include determining the project topic, conducting preliminary activities, formulating key questions, drafting project plans, and creating a project timeline. Then, the implementation stages included finishing the project. Lastly, the reporting stages were completed, which included assessing the project’s results and evaluating its progress. These findings highlight how PjBL can be systematically structured to address practical challenges in teaching writing and presentation skills, while supporting the broader objective of Kurikulum Merdeka
Islam and Professional Identity; Exploring the Influence of Religion in Shaping the English Teacher Professional Identities in Indonesia and Thailand
No full textThis study explores the influence of Islamic values on the professional identity of muslim english teachers in indonesia and thailand. while existing literature on teacher identity often emphasizes gender, race, and christian contexts, the role of islam remains underexamined. employing a narrative inquiry approach, this research draws on in-depth interviews and classroom observations of two english teachers—one from a pesantren in Indonesia and another from an islamic private school in southern Thailand. Thematic analysis reveals three key dimensions through which islam shapes teacher identity: as a motivational force in choosing the profession, as integrated content within english teaching materials, and as a guiding framework for upholding students’ religious values. The findings suggest that religious identity significantly informs pedagogical practices and teacher-student interactions. However, the prioritization of moral and religious instruction may at times overshadow the development of students’ English language proficiency. The study recommends that school stakeholders critically evaluate curriculum design to ensure a balanced integration of religious values and language competency
The Influence of Work Demands and Rewards on Hospital Service Quality through Employee Satisfaction
No full textThis study investigates how job demands and job rewards influence hospital service quality, and whether employee satisfaction mediates these relationships among staff at Prof. Dr. R. Soeharso Orthopedic Hospital, Surakarta. Using an explanatory quantitative design, Likert-scale questionnaires were collected from 235 medical and non-medical employees (n=235) through voluntary response sampling and analyzed with PLS-SEM (SmartPLS) to test a model comprising job demands (X1), job rewards (X2), employee satisfaction (Z), and service quality (Y), operationalized with demand, reward, satisfaction, and SERVQUAL-based service quality indicators. The measurement model met adequacy criteria (AVE>0.50; composite reliability=0.875–0.935; Cronbach’s alpha>0.80) and showed acceptable collinearity (VIF<5). In the structural model, job demands had a negative but non-significant direct effect on service quality (β=-0.025; t=0.415; p>0.05), while job rewards had a positive, significant direct effect (β=0.281; t=3.405; p=0.001). Job demands significantly reduced employee satisfaction (β=-0.198; t=3.455; p=0.001), whereas job rewards strongly increased satisfaction (β=0.759; t=26.836; p<0.001). Employee satisfaction positively predicted service quality (β=0.389; t=4.210; p<0.001) and mediated both exogenous variables’ effects on service quality; effect-size results indicated a large contribution of rewards to satisfaction (f²=1.564). The model explained 63.3% of the variance in employee satisfaction (R²=0.633; Q²=0.439) and 40.5% in service quality (R²=0.405; Q²=0.280). Theoretically, the findings extend job demands–resources logic in a hospital context by evidencing satisfaction as a key mechanism linking work conditions to perceived service quality. Practically, hospital managers should calibrate workloads and institutionalize fair financial and non-financial rewards to sustain satisfaction and improve service delivery. Overall, the study shows that reward strengthening and demand management are strategic levers for consistently high-quality hospital services
