Exploring Cadets’ Perceptions of Challenges and Benefits in Gamified ESP Reading: A Case Study at a Maritime Academy
type: item
description: English for Specific Purposes (ESP) is essential in maritime education, helping cadets with the language skills required to meet specific learning needs. However, traditional ESP reading instruction often lacks engagement and fails to motivate learners. In response, gamification, which integrates game design elements into learning environments, has emerged as a promising solution to enhance learner engagement and motivation. This study aims to explore cadets’ perceptions of the challenges and benefits of using gamification in ESP reading. The research was conducted using a qualitative case study approach at a maritime academy in East Java, Indonesia, involving 24 cadets. Participants were first-year students with intermediate English language proficiency. Data were collected through six sessions of gamified ESP reading lessons, semi-structured interviews, and participant observations. Thematic analysis was used to examine the cadets’ experiences, focusing on recurring themes related to motivation, learning outcomes, and technological challenges. The results showed that cadets generally expressed positive feelings about gamified ESP reading. They reported increased motivation and engagement due to game elements such as points, leaderboards, and real-time feedback, which made learning more interactive and enjoyable. However, challenges such as limited technological readiness, internet connectivity, and initial confusion with the game interface were also highlighted. Therefore, it can be concluded that gamification shows strong potential in enhancing cadets’ motivation and interest in ESP reading following the challenges and their constraints. These findings underscore the importance of integrating thoughtfully designed gamified strategies in maritime education to foster learner-centered and engaging ESP instruction.

description: This case study aims to explore the misconceptions surrounding acid-base concepts. It utilizes a qualitative descriptive research design to examine students’ comprehension of the acid-base concept. The sample includes 231 students from grades XI and XII in the science stream who have studied acid-base, selected randomly from SMAN 54 Jakarta and SMAN 14 Bekasi schools. The methodology involves the use of a two-tier diagnostic test tool, interviews, and reflective journals. The research tool consists of a two-tier diagnostic test with 10 hierarchical questions - multiple-choice at the first level and reasons for the first-level answers at the second level, totaling 20 questions adapted from a previous study (Ibrahim, 2016) to ensure validity and reliability. The diagnostic test tool was administered to students through Google Forms. The study findings from 231 participants showed that 44% of students grasped the acid-base concept, 19% had a partial understanding, 17% held misconceptions, 20% did not understand, and 19% did not provide a response. The research results were corroborated by interviews and reflective journals with students who took part in the two-tier diagnostic test. The identification of misconceptions in acid-base material highlights the necessity to enhance teaching approaches, stressing the significance of teachers recognizing the individual learning styles of their students.
