The quality of education is very dependent on the role of teachers in it because teachers are professional educators. Quality education processes and outcomes are also inseparable from teacher performance. Therefore, given the importance of this, various efforts are still being made to improve teacher performance such as self-discipline, self-concept and self-efficacy as will be discussed in this study. This study uses a quantitative approach by using the method of observation and questionnaire design. The population observed was 38 teachers, because the number was less than 100, the sample was determined using the census technique. The data were then tested for validity and reliability as well as the classical assumption test. In the end there is multiple regression analysis using SPSS version 26.0 program. The conclusion that self-discipline has a significant effect on improving teacher performance. Likewise, what happened to the independent variables of self-concept and self-efficacy also had a partial and significant influence on improving teacher performance. These three variables have a significant effect simultaneously on improving teacher performance.

The purpose of this study is to describe the problems of using digital-based innovative learning media in the digitalization era which is an independent learning program in basic education. This problem is very important to study more deeply, considering that learning media is an important component that must exist in the implementation of learning. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The research was conducted at SDN Sidosermo 1 Surabaya during December 2022. The data needed in this study included literature studies, direct observation, supported by questionnaire results and interviews with PPG students who carried out PPL at SDN Sidosermo 1 Surabaya. The results of this study note that there are still teachers who have not utilized digital-based innovative learning media during learning. Teachers still use the lecture method and simple media in the form of pictures and word cards to support learning. The lack of use of digital-based innovative learning media is not only seen in Sidosermo 1 Surabaya Elementary School, but also in several schools in Indonesia. This is known from data which states that around 60% of teachers in Indonesia still do not master information and communication technology. Based on the results of this study it can be concluded that the use of digital-based innovative learning media is still minimal and needs to be improved in the future. It is intended that there is a balance between technological advances and scientific advances in the school environment, which in turn can improve the quality of learning

Learning English requires a special condition so that the learners can learn English, especially speaking skill, without anxiety. For that reason, preparing a comfortable place is essential for making the learners motivated to learn or at least to make them like English. This study attempts to explore the students of the customers in a coffee shop to learn English informally. It took 4 respondents of the coffee shop, at Djuw Cafe, selected by purposive sampling with the criteria as the loyal customers who very often come to the coffee shop. They were interview unintentionally with unstructured interview and observation by the researcher. The interview was also done with the owner of the coffee shop. These sources of data then interpreted and classified into the domain with the themes based on the semantic meanings. These themes then were analyzed and interpreted, and finally drawn the inferences for conclusion. It was found that the most essential factor that makes the respondents highly motivated to learn English is the listening of English songs. Secondly, they are motivated to enjoy learning English through the written English expressions that are decorated on the walls. Therefore, making the learners motivated to learn English, it requires a comfortable place with a specific design of the place with English songs and some written English expression for the decoration on the wall.

Studies have shown that during the process of Interlanguage development, language learners cannot avoid making grammatical errors in either spoken or written form. Although it is considered as a normal phase, errors can lower students' confidence to be active EFL learners in the class. Accordingly, they need teachers’ appropriate corrective feedback (CF) to produce effective communication in the target language. Thus, considering the significant contribution of grammar knowledge and teachers' feedback on students' English proficiency, this paper aims to explore the perception of 12 EFL teachers’ practices and 91 students, both of whom are involved in an English writing class, about CF. The instruments used to collect the data was closed- and open-ended questionnaire. The results indicate that teachers vary their CF in terms of frequency and types. In addition, students show a different perspective on the effectiveness of CF in writing class. Also, teachers need to become more familiar with electronic CF in order to implement it better in class including for writing instruction process and promoting peer corrective feedback. In line with these findings, suggestions for future research are provided.

Deductive and Inductive method are two common teaching method applied by teachers. Both of the methods provide advantages to teachers to their teaching process. However, each of them also present different principles of the implementation. In that case, this research was carried out to figure out the teacher’s teaching activities representing the principles of implementing deductive and inductive method as well as to figure out the teacher’s reasons of selection the teaching methods (deductive or inductive method) in context of teaching English text types. To obtain the data to answer the research questions, a case study approach was used. The instruments used were observation and interview while the participant of this study was the English teacher of one of vocational school in Jombang having 10 years experiences. The findings of the research showed that the teacher applied different method for different class as it appeared in teacher’s selection of the activities representing the principles of teaching methods. The teacher selected to apply deductive method in which the activities presented the general rule – example – practice. Meanwhile, in inductive teaching method, the activities covered example – practice – general rule. In addition, it was also revealed that the teacher considered students’ level of interaction, text type, vocabulary usage as the reasons of selection between deductive or inductive method. At last, deductive and inductive method were said to be effective and appropriate teaching method which provided students to learn deductively and inductively as long as the teacher choose the method appropriately based on some considerations; interaction level, text type, and vocabulary usage. These research results contribute significantly to the teachers who often find difficulties which way best to apply when teaching English text types since they present different genre of text and the language use. Thus, this research results present the practical ways as high consideration to those teachers who are willing to undergo the methods whether it is deductive or inductive teaching method.

Abstract: The objective of this study is to find autistic children use to learn English and understand how to teach English to autistic students at this elementary school. The qualitative research method was applied in this investigation. Qualitative mining yields detailed and unpredictable findings. In this instance, the principal, an English teacher, a physicist, autistic children from various backgrounds, and shadow teachers all took part in the investigation process. Tools included observations and interviews with teachers, a physicist, a shadow teacher, an English teacher, and a principal. Tunas Mekar School has the following six plans: The acronym ABA represents "Taking Control of Students' Actions." Modelling and role-playing are utilized to teach through movement and facial emotions. Less is more (with clear, simple instructions). To enhance the child's social skills in the classroom, assist them with visual materials and provide them with a range of stimuli. Employing PECS, being ability to obey instructions while maintaining composure is a sign of self-control. Learning a foreign language also benefits children with ASD by increasing their self-awareness. To organize and get along with others, parents should emphasize their child's talents and provide an organized learning environment.

By instructing students on pro-environmental behavior, early environmental education and training can start to establish pro-environmental behavior among student. To proof the value of environmental education in educating students about current environmental issues and their effects on public health and safety, as well as motivating them to adopt pro-environmental behaviors, a literature review is required. The review was based on nine studies from reputable international publications that were published in English between 2019 and 2023 and were selected based on title, population, objectives, and outcomes criteria. The articles were found in the ScienceDirect database. The review focuses mostly on establishing the effectiveness of environmental education in influencing pro-environmental behavior. The review also examines the ways in which students' perceptions of environmental education and their pro-environmental conduct are influenced by the interaction of internal and external influences. The study's findings demonstrate the significance of environmental education in influencing students' pro-environmental behavior. By providing students with reliable, accurate, and valid information, environmental education raises their awareness of environmental issues and promotes the development of pro-environmental behavior. Additional research on best practice design to rise pro-environmental behavior through environmental education can be developed from this study. More research is required on the topic of integrating more both internal and external factors of pro-environmental behavior in the environmental education curriculum.

The importance of developing critical thinking skills in elementary education has gained increasing recognition, particularly through the implementation of inquiry-based learning (IBL) models. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the social inquiry learning model in enhancing critical thinking skills among fourth-grade students at an public elementary school in Surabaya. Employing a qualitative case study methodology, data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, reflective journals, and document analysis. The thematic analysis revealed significant improvements in critical thinking for 75% of the participants, highlighting key themes such as "Engagement in Critical Thinking" and "Interaction Patterns in Learning Activities." These findings support the theoretical frameworks of Vygotsky and Piaget, demonstrating the model's applicability in non-Western educational contexts. The study suggests that culturally responsive teaching methods, incorporating social interactions and structured inquiry, can significantly enhance cognitive development. However, the limited scope of a single school and a small sample size suggest the need for further research across diverse settings. Future research should explore the long-term impacts of inquiry-based learning and the role of teacher preparation in implementing these strategies. This research underscores the importance of interactive, student-centered learning frameworks in fostering critical thinking and calls for a shift towards more dynamic educational approaches to prepare students for complex global challenges.
