This study investigates the impact of Differentiated Instruction (DI) in high school English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education, analyzing its influence on students' perceptions, motivation, and engagement. Using mixed methods, it delivers a comprehensive assessment of DI's effectiveness. Quantitative analysis of survey data reveals a strong, positive perception of DI among EFL high school students. Each one-unit increase in students' DI perception corresponds to a 0.508 units increase in DI (t = 10.613, p < 0.001, Beta = 0.639). Engagement also significantly impacts DI; a one-unit increase in engagement yields a 0.496 units increase in DI (t = 10.512, p < 0.001, Beta = 0.653). Conversely, motivation negatively relates to DI; a one-unit increase in motivation results in a 0.353 units decrease in DI (t = -7.219, p < 0.001, Beta = -0.305). Qualitative insights from in-depth interviews resonate with the quantitative findings. Students express heightened engagement, enjoyment, and empowerment through DI, accompanied by a positive shift in their perspectives. They credit DI with accommodating diverse readiness levels, enhancing learning achievements, and reshaping their views of English as a subject. Additionally, the flexible grouping strategies within DI foster dynamic, collaborative learning environments. In sum, this research highlights the multifaceted benefits of DI in EFL high school education, offering a nuanced understanding of its implications within this context. This abstract has been expanded to 240 words to provide a more comprehensive overview of the study's findings and implications.
本研究调查了 "差异化教学"(Differentiated Instruction,DI)在高中英语作为外语(EFL)教育中的影响,分析了其对学生认知、学习动机和参与度的影响。本研究采用混合方法,对 DI 的有效性进行了全面评估。对调查数据的定量分析显示,EFL 高中学生对 DI 有着强烈而积极的看法。学生对 DI 的认知每增加一个单位,DI 就会增加 0.508 个单位(t = 10.613,p < 0.001,Beta = 0.639)。参与度也对学习兴趣有重大影响;参与度每增加一个单位,学习兴趣就会增加 0.496 个单位(t = 10.512,p < 0.001,Beta = 0.653)。相反,动机与 DI 呈负相关;动机增加一个单位,DI 减少 0.353 个单位(t = -7.219,p < 0.001,Beta = -0.305)。深入访谈的定性分析结果与定量分析结果产生了共鸣。学生们通过 DI 表达了更高的参与度、乐趣和能力,同时他们的观点也发生了积极的转变。他们认为,DI 适应了不同的准备水平,提高了学习成绩,并重塑了他们对英语学科的看法。此外,DI 中灵活的分组策略营造了动态的协作学习环境。总之,本研究强调了 DI 在 EFL 高中教育中的多方面益处,对其在这一背景下的意义提供了细致入微的理解。本摘要已扩展至 240 字,以便更全面地概述本研究的发现和意义。

The global significance of English is undeniable, especially for students. While learning the language is vital for effective communication, practical usage often remains limited to classroom activities. Surprisingly, English education students also face challenges in practical English communication. Anxiety about making errors leads students to revert to their native language during communication. Language anxiety, in the forms of trait, state, and situation-specific speaking anxiety hampers language mastery. Speaking anxiety particularly affects students especially during presentations and discussions. Addressing this anxiety is crucial for enhancing language skills. By acknowledging this issue, a study was conducted among English education department students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Gresik to identify anxiety triggers and understand strategies for effective English communication. Interview was conducted to explore students’ experiences, emotions, and cognitive processes related to speaking anxiety. The findings unveiled speaking anxiety experienced by students in classroom activities, uncovering the complex interplay of trait and state anxiety as well as situation-specific anxiety. Students’ diverse experiences, thoughts, and triggers shaped anxiety levels, revealing the intricate interplay of cognitive, situational, and individual factors in speaking anxiety. From impromptu to rehearsed speeches, students’ experiences of state anxiety fluctuated, while coping strategies like deep breathing and positive self-talk play a crucial role. Effective preparation and cognitive strategies emerged as valuable tools in managing anxiety. The variety of strategies employed reflects students’ adaptive skills in handling anxiety-inducing situations. This study illuminated the intricate aspects of speaking anxiety and the dynamic strategies students use to navigate the speaking anxiety challenges in classroom activities.

Technological advancements are profoundly impacting education, particularly in the selection of learning media. Appropriate utilization of learning media can make learning easier and more effective. Language acquisition in children typically begins when they first begin to speak words independently. However, autistic children may struggle with acquiring new languages and demonstrating school readiness skills such as social, emotional, language, literacy, and executive functioning due to their individual social, communication, and behavioral presentations. This research aims to determine the implementation of YouTube as a medium for toddlers with autistic spectrum disorder in second language acquisition. The method used is qualitative with the instruments used are questionnaire, observation, and interview. The research subject was 5 autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) students at the Smart Kids School. The researchers did a questionnaire with 5 respondents as the parents of kindergarten students. The researchers also interviewed the teachers of the kindergarten. There were 5 questions to answer, which were described based on the respondents’ opinions. The research results show the process of implementing YouTube in English learning for autistic spectrum disorder students is appropriate and advantageous. Because YouTube provides exciting videos for children; they can hear the words spoken and see their physical appearance, which can aid comprehension. The children often imitate the dialogue of the characters they see on screen and their behavior. In addition, this research also showed that it is crucial for parents and teachers to monitor the content children watch on YouTube.

This research presented an album by alternative rock band Radiohead's "Ok Computer". The objective of this research was to analyse the capitalist state employed in Radiohead's Ok Computer album in relation to slavery and poverty. Therefore, as this study used literary marxism, the method used by researchers was the qualitative method to describe naturally occurring occurrences. Radiohead's song. Overall, this research argued that Radiohead's Ok Computer album presented a literary marxist critique of capitalist state slavery and poverty. The album depicts the lives of the poor as jobs that slowly kill them and expresses disappointment in a system that protects a form of slavery. The album suggests that the capitalist state's poverty is the result of a new crisis, with the state ignoring the voices of the proletariat and exploiting them for the state's benefit. The capitalist state is driven by profits and structural inequality, which cannot be abolished unless we address the violent power structures underlying it.
