Email this article How is Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) Implemented by Senior High School English Teachers?
Abstract
Abstract: Implementing Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) is one way to develop language teaching practices. Finding out how MALL is implemented by English teachers could provide insights to the future of MALL. Three high school English teachers were chosen as the subjects of the study representing three degrees of implementation–high, medium and low. It was revealed that the teachers recognized the potentials and practices of mobile devices for language learning. However, their familiarity with MALL does not automatically make them able or willing to employ MALL. Their application is limited in the range of mobile applications and learning activities.
Key Words: degree of implementation, MALL
Abstrak: Menerapkan Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) merupakan sebuah cara untuk mengembangkan praktik pengajaran bahasa Inggris. Mengetahui bagaimana MALL diterapkan oleh guru bahasa Inggris dapat memberikan gambaran tentang masa depan MALL. Tiga guru bahasa Inggris dipilih sebagai subjek penelitian yang masing-masing mewakili tiga tingkat penerapan MALL, yakni tinggi, menengah dan rendah. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa guru-guru menyadari akan potensi dan penggunaan perangkat mobile untuk pembelajaran bahasa. Namun, hal itu tidak menjamin kemampuan dan kemauan mereka dalam menerapkan MALL. Faktanya, penerapannya masih terbatas dalam hal aplikasi perangkat mobile yang digunakan dan kegiatan pembelajaran.
Kata kunci: tingkat implementasi, MALL
