It has become a prominent interest in education around the globe, including in Indonesia. However, little is known about the contribution of a university program, especially a Master's program, towards TPL in the Indonesian context. This study aims to investigate the contribution of the Master's English Language Education (MELE) Program towards TPL on graduate students who have become teachers at once. The data were collected from graduate students of the program. A focus group was conducted with nine representatives of two classes that were categorized into two different groups. Constant comparison analysis was used as the data analysis method. The findings revealed three important themes namely applying knowledge into practice; transforming teaching through teachers’ self-inquiry; and improving knowledge, skills, and attitudes toward academic publication. The paper also presents the empirical evidence that takes place during the program and how it contributes to their professionalism.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":"55 14","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141809822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This skill is related to the individual's ability to cooperate with others in achieving a goal. Several previous studies related to the development of collaboration ability instruments using visible dimensions as their pivot, such as aspects of performance outcomes and levels of interaction. However, some previous studies suggest that a person's ability to collaborate comes from within as well. Therefore, an instrument is needed to measure students' collaborative abilities in depth and adapt to the diverse Indonesian context, which is diverse in so many aspects. The researchers developed an instrument called the Local Wisdom-Based Collaboration Skills Instrument (LWCSI), which is an instrument that measures students' collaboration abilities but is adapted to the context of Indonesia which is Godly and diverse in culture. The population in this study consisted of 166 students who took civics education classes in the short semester of 2022/2023. To determine the validity, the df value used is (166-2) = 164 with an α value of 0.05. The R-table value obtained is 0.1281. From the table the R-count is greater than the R-table, so it can be concluded that all items are valid. The number shows 0.06 so it can be concluded that the LWCSI instrument is reliable and can be utilized to measure student collaboration skills based on local wisdom. Therefore, it can be concluded that this instrument is able to measure the collaboration skills of students with a variety of beliefs and cultures, especially in Indonesia that have a large and diverse population.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":"105 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141812473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An important factor that could be seen in the responses obtained is that the context played an essential role. It was also obtained that the textual understanding and the cultural context show an important relationship when building a representation of the problem.

The students observed the native speakers' use of grammar in their transcribing and used that to understand grammar usage. To help with vocabulary development, the students also translate it into their native tongue. The students recount the podcasts' material to improve their speaking flow. The information the students learned from the podcast materials was applied to the description of images. Students utilized paraphrasing applications to complete the proofreading assignments. It is a procedure to hone their writing abilities. It is discovered by qualitative data analysis that students can successfully produce natural writing by using paraphrasing tools, translation services, and podcasts.

This study's model-type design and development research included a single-group pre-test-post-test design. The population consisted of students from upper-basic schools in Nigeria, specifically from upper-basic school two. Findings indicated that the developed application improved students' academic performance, as evidenced by their respective pre- and post-test performance percentage scores of 53.0% and 66.4%.
