1. The topic is about Students’ Speaking Anxiety in the Classroom. I read it last night. By using google scholar. I feel like I just found out that there are many factors that make students feel anxiety.
2. I have a little difficulty with the language used.

1. The topic is The Use Of Total Physical Response Method To Teach Students
Motivation For Junior High School, i read that articles last week, and i access the articles from google schoolar. From that article i got the information about my interest in the TPR method. I feel so enjoyed while i’m reading the text, because the author writing concisely and clearly, and the method used is qualitative so it gives me an inspiration for my article.
2. In my opinion, the article has a clear structure but seems a little less formal and there are several typos that make the reader have to focus more to read it. Why is it memorable because this article is the shortest article I have ever read.

1. In my experience about reading an article, it was an interesting experience. When I was in my third year of my study in college, I read an article that discuss a topic about teaching with game media. I found it when I dive into google scholarship, searching for a different article topic. I was enjoying myself when I read it.

2. The first time I read it, I found it very difficult ’cause I wasn’t used to read such paper. But after keep reading it, i found myself drawn into the topic.

1. The topic is about Use of technology in English language learning: Challenges and benefits.I read the article last week. I access it through website and Google Scholar. The article have the same topic with mine.
2. Actually, it’s not really memorable, it just quite interesting cause the topic in line with mine.

Last week, I read an article titled “The Effect of Using Quizizz to EFL Students’ Engagement and Learning Outcome” from Google Scholar. I chose it because it clearly explains how Quizizz influences students’ engagement and learning outcomes in EFL classrooms. The challenging aspect of this study is that Quizizz improved students’ learning outcomes—psychomotor, cognitive, and affective, but did not significantly enhance their engagement. This means teachers still face difficulties in keeping students motivated and actively involved when using game-based learning platforms like Quizizz.

1. My experience reading the article “Technological, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge (TPACK): Exploring Saudi EFL Teachers’ Views to Improve Students’ Vocabulary Learning” was interesting. It discusses how English teachers in Saudi Arabia apply the TPACK model to improve students’ vocabulary. I read it last night after downloading it from Google Scholar. I found the topic relevant to English education and helpful in showing how technology supports teaching and learning. However, the article was quite long and used many academic terms like mixed-methods and reliability, which made it a bit challenging to understand.
2. This reading experience was memorable because it helped me realize the importance of integrating technology in learning, especially to improve vocabulary. The main challenge was the academic language and the dense structure of the article.

1. One of my most memorable experiences in reading a journal article was when I read “The Effect of the Four-Square Writing Method on 7th-Grade Students’ Informative Text Writing Skills.” I read it last month while preparing my research proposal about writing evaluation. I accessed it through DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals) using my laptop. At first, I felt curious and motivated because the topic was closely related to my study, but I also felt a bit overwhelmed by the academic terms and statistical explanations.

2. This experience was memorable because it helped me understand how researchers use pre-test and post-test designs to measure students’ writing improvement. However, it was also challenging because of the complex structure and formal academic language. The methodology and data analysis sections were especially hard to follow at first, but rereading them helped me learn a lot about how real research works.

1.The title of the journal article I read was “Using Digital Storytelling as a Strategy for Enhancing EFL Writing Skills,” which I read last year and accessed on Scholar.

1. I once read a journal article titled “The Influence of Digital Literacy and Learning Motivation on Learning Outcomes of Generation Z.” I found it on Google Scholar while working on a class project last semester. The topic caught my attention because it was very relevant to students today. While reading, I felt both interested and challenged since the language was quite formal and full of data. It became memorable because it helped me understand how digital literacy and motivation affect our learning results.
2. What made it memorable was how the article clearly connected digital literacy and motivation to students’ performance, which felt very relatable. The most challenging part was understanding the academic language and data interpretation since it used many formal and technical terms.

1. One of my most memorable experiences in reading a journal article was when I read about the use of Augmented Reality in Teaching Writing of Descriptive Text in English language learning. I read it around May last year through Google Scholar. At first, I felt quite challenged because the language was very academic and there were many unfamiliar technical terms.

2. What made this experience memorable was the article’s clear structure—from the background and methodology to the findings. Yet, the discussion part was quite difficult because it contained deep analyses and many theoretical references. From this experience, I realized that the common challenges students face when reading journal articles are the complex academic language, the need for broad theoretical understanding, and maintaining focus while reading long texts.

1. The lack of interest in reading among the millennial generation due to the dominance of digital media. This article is very well structured, with focused arguments supported by solid academic references.
2.In my opinion, what made reading this article memorable was that it was my first time writing an article, and I learned many new things and gained new knowledge.

At the same time,because by using movie, we dont need to worry about the students. Because most of students like to watch movie.

2. The topic are memoriable one. But the challanging is i still cannot figure it out. Like what kind of question we should start with, what should we do to test it (like what instruments of the question), and the use of movie will always works nowaday? It will be challenging for the teacher if we found out that actually there are a few students who doesn’t like to watch movie.
The language in the article are quiet challanging for me. There are still so much vocabulary I didnt know. And I also thought will students find the language is difficult when they watch movie?

1. Topic is a how to improve speaking skill The topic I read was about how to hone English speaking skills. I read it two days ago and found it on Google Scholar. It focused more on how we can hone our English speaking skills to make it easier and use supporting media such as social media.
2. Present arguments that are easy to understand, especially for junior high and high school students, using media that people often use nowadays.

1.I recently read an article entitled “The Correlation Between Students’ Vocabulary Mastery and Their Reading Comprehension Ability” last month. I accessed it through Google Scholar and downloaded the full text from an academic journal website. The article discussed how students’ vocabulary knowledge influences their ability to understand reading passages.
While reading it, I felt both interested and challenged. The topic was relevant to my studies in English education, and it helped me understand the strong connection between vocabulary size and reading comprehension. However, some parts were a bit difficult to follow because of the academic language and statistical explanations used in the methodology section.
2.In my opinion, the experience was memorable because the article gave me new insights into how vocabulary learning can directly affect reading skills. It was also challenging due to the complex structure and data analysis, which required careful reading and interpretation.

1. I read it last week through an online journal that I accessed using Google Scholar. The article discussed how technology supports teaching and learning, especially through digital platforms, interactive tools, and online resources. While reading it, I felt very interested and inspired because it showed how technology can make learning more effective and engaging. It also made me realize how important it is for teachers and students to adapt to new technological advancements in education.

2. The experience was memorable because the topic about technology in education is very relevant to my own learning experience. I could easily relate to how digital tools are changing the way we study and teach. However, it was also a bit challenging because the article used many academic terms and complex sentence structures. Understanding the author’s arguments and connecting them with real-life examples required careful reading and critical thinking. Despite the difficulty, it helped me improve my comprehension and vocabulary in academic writing.

2. ⁠After reading the article, I had difficulty understanding the arguments in the article.

The article I read was titled “The Effectiveness of the Duolingo App in Teaching Vocabulary to Seventh-Grade Junior High School Students.” I came across it last week via Google Scholar. The topic was very interesting because it discussed the use of the Duolingo app in improving junior high school students’ English comprehension. I accessed it online, and I found the article’s content quite clear and focused on experimental research. The experience of reading this article was very impressive because it showed that learning English can be more interactive and fun with the help of technology like Duolingo. I was curious and motivated to learn more about how this app can help students learn vocabulary effectively, and I was inspired by the research results that showed that the use of technology can actually improve students’ learning abilities.

2. The language used is quite challenging, so I had to read it slowly or repeatedly to understand the ideas.

1. The topic is about the Implementation of Augmented Reality (AR) as a Teaching Media in English Language Learning in Elementary School. I have read it last year. I can access that article from Google Scholar. Based on my experience I just discovered the importance of reading a book because of the demands of writing a research proposal. But since then I have also used scientific articles as one of the sources of information that I use to support my studies.

I access it in google scholar and I read it last year to find reference about my research proposal.
2. I think what makes it memorable is the language is very formal and moreover, a journal contains facts from research results in the field so that it can increase knowledge.

1. The topic is “Improving Students’ Vocabulary Mastery by using Upin and Ipin Cartoon Movie at Seventh Grade Students of SMP Angkasa Mandai”. I read it last week and I accessed it through Google Scholar. I was very interested and curious when I read the title of the article.
2. The memorable thing from reading this article is about its media. This article is using Upin Ipin cartoon as the media to teach vocabulary, it’s very interesting for me who love to watch Upin Ipin since I was young.

1. From my point of view, writing scientific articles is crucial for English language learners because it forms the foundation of their academic and professional development. This process trains students in critical thinking and research from problem formulation and literature review to data analysis essential skills for further study and careers.

2. I usually use Google Scholar to search for and read journal articles. I found two journals with the same theme: “APPLYING DIGITAL STORYTELLING TO IMPROVE INDONESIAN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’ VISUAL MEMORY AND WRITING SKILLS” and “The use of digital storytelling to improve students’ writing skills.” Both articles use the IMRaD (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion) structure, which is the standard format for scientific research articles. The difference between the two articles lies in the research subject.

3. The most difficult sections of journal articles for me to understand are usually the Methodology and Discussion. This difficulty arises because these two sections often present information in great detail and use dense technical language.

4. Reading journal articles helped improve my academic writing skills because journals served as role models. I learned firsthand how experts logically structure arguments (IMRaD), from introduction to conclusion. Furthermore, I was exposed to a formal and precise style of writing, which taught me how to use technical terminology correctly and master proper citation and referencing skills, which are the gold standard in scientific writing.

1. It moves students from being consumers of knowledge to producers of knowledge. They learn the conventions, structure, and formal tone of academic discourse, which is a powerful form of communication in its own right. The process forces them to formulate a clear research question, find and synthesize existing literature, and construct a logical, evidence-based argument. In my research process, I primarily rely on Google Scholar

2. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AyKZOHNiuD-BSGlHG8eanZke-s_YcXZj/view?usp=drive_link

3. The Methodology section is often the most challenging for me, particularly in quantitative studies. It is filled with field-specific and statistical terminology , The descriptions of experimental designs, data collection instruments, and statistical analyses require a certain level of technical knowledge to evaluate the validity and reliability of the study.
4. I see how other researchers integrate sources, paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting to support their claims and engage in a scholarly conversation. This teach me how to use evidence effectively.

1.reading a journal article was when I read an article titled “The Effectiveness of Quizlet Application towards Students’ Motivation in Learning Vocabulary.” Even though I had never used Quizlet before, the topic interested me because it was related to language learning and student motivation.

2. At first, I felt a bit unsure because I had never used Quizlet personally, so I didn’t have any direct experience to relate to. However, as I continued reading, I became curious about how this app works and why it seems to help many students learn vocabulary more effectively.

1. reading a journal article happened during my Academic Writing class. I read an article titled “The Effectiveness of Quizlet Application towards Students’ Motivation in Learning Vocabulary.” Even though I had never used Quizlet before, the topic caught my attention because it was related to vocabulary learning and student motivation—something I could still relate to as a language learner.
2. ⁠Despite the challenges, the article gave me new insight into how digital tools can be used in education, and I realized that academic reading is not just about understanding the topic, but also about learning how research is structured and presented.

Academic writing is critically important for students in higher education because it serves as the primary tool for demonstrating knowledge, facilitating critical thinking, and preparing for professional life. It is far more than just writing reports; it’s a fundamental skill that underpins success in every discipline.

Knowing how to find, read, and use journal articles is arguably one of the most important skills for success in college and beyond. Unlike textbooks or websites, scholarly journal articles are the bedrock of higher education because they represent the cutting edge of knowledge in every field.

Journal articles must be published to fulfill their role in the scientific and academic ecosystem. Publication is the mechanism that validates, disseminates, and establishes the findings as part of the official body of knowledge.

1. I think writing a scientific article is important because it helps us learn how to think critically, organize ideas, and use proper academic language. It also trains us to do research properly, which is really useful if we want to be teachers or continue studying later. Plus, it makes us more confident in writing formal English.
2. I usually use Google Scholar, because it’s the easiest to access and has lots of free articles. Sometimes I also check ResearchGate if I can’t find the full version on Google Scholar.
3. I found two articles about using songs to teach listening skills. Both of them have the same basic structure—abstract, introduction, literature review, method, results, discussion, and conclusion. But one article was more formal and used lots of data and statistics, while the other one explained things more simply and focused more on classroom examples. The writing style also felt different—one was more academic, the other more practical.
4. For me, the methodology part is the hardest to understand because it’s full of technical terms, research design details, and sometimes statistical analysis that I’m not very familiar with. Sometimes the sentences are also really long, which makes it harder to follow.
5. Reading journal articles helps a lot because I can see how academic writers structure their ideas, use formal language, and cite sources correctly. It also gives me inspiration for vocabulary and sentence patterns. The more I read, the more I understand how to write in a clear, logical, and academic way.

SYEIFH FAHMA SALSABILA (22220097)

1. Writing academic articles is very important for English Education students because it forces us to interact with precision and formality in academic writing. This encourages us to consume information and begin contributing new knowledge or providing critical analysis in our field. The journal finder I usually use is Google Scholar because it provides me with comprehensive articles. Sometimes I also search on Elsevier to find articles.
2. I have read two articles on reading comprehension for EFL students. The first article focuses on improving reading comprehension, while the second focuses on analysing problems in EFL students’ reading comprehension. Both articles examine students’ reading abilities but use different research methods.
3. I’d say that the Methodology section is often the most difficult part to fully understand, as there is data that needs to be read, especially in quantitative or mixed studies.
4. Reading journal articles is the best way to improve our academic writing skills because they provide authentic, high-quality examples of effective scientific communication.

Suci Samiarti

1. Writing a scientific article helps English education students explore classroom challenges and share practical solutions. “The study Teachers’ Perception of Using Quizizz to Enhance Students’ Motivation in Learning English Junior High School” was found through Google Scholar, a trusted and easy to use platform for accessing research on English teaching and learning, including digital tools like Quizizz.

2. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TgEP__QSgNUYNdZwGGAGxH9g502w7SSL/view?usp=sharing

3. ⁠In my opinion, the hardest part of a journal article to understand is the methodology section because it explains the research process, how data was collected, and what instruments were used. This section can be confusing since it often includes technical terms and detailed procedures that require a good understanding of research methods.

4. ⁠In my opinion, reading journal articles help me improve my academic writing because I can learn how to organize ideas, use formal language, and follow academic structures like IMRaD.

1. Its important to every students, not only English Education students because by writing scientific article, it means we are able to create new innovative research in real life time. By the fact that everyday goes by, students always change. The innovative strategies of teaching should developed each day and time, to make sure the process of teaching and learning are effective. By writing a scientific article, it proves that students able to contribute in the field, share original finding especially on a new teaching techniques effectiveness, and able to responsible to their writing. Its also able to develop critical thinking, research skills, and analysis skill on students.
Journal finder I usually use is Google Schoolar. Some of journal finder I also use is Project, and Sinta
2. I found five articles which were interesting for me, it has differences and similarities in some of their aspects. I put all those articles summary in google drive with word format. Here is the link to access it https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vjNks7hlYGyagjo2DO8LFwfZsBAJUjJm?usp=sharing
3. To me its methodology. Because some of article didn’t showed a specific information about it. Such as instruments in the research. They wrote they use interview for the instrument, but I didn’t know what kind of question they use, how to assess the interview sheets, etc. Suddenly, all I know is the research is showed positive results. All of journal parts have their own difficulties to me, like in the introduction. I find it quiet hard to write, looking for a references, till paraphrase. But overall Methodology is rather difficult to understand
4. writing is productive skill (output) so speaking does. To produce some output, we must receive some input which also called as receptive.
Reading, and listening are receptive skills. To be concluded, if we want to create some writing we must receive some input by reading. If we want to be able to speak, we must receive input by listening. By reading journal articles we will write better because we will find some vocabularies that are common used, we find strategies that suit the best, we will find the best approach and kind of method to used, also we will find new insight, opinion and fact from experts so the writing will more accurate. By reading, we will able to analyze multiple sources to build new arguments, statement, rather than just writing summaries.

1. Writing scientific articles is important for English education students because it helps us learn to write academically, think critically, and develop ideas with a strong theoretical basis. In addition, writing articles also trains research skills and the use of formal English.
I used Google Scholar to search for journals because it is easy to use and provides many reliable scientific articles.

2. I found two articles, both articles focus on English teaching, but from different perspectives. The first article discusses students’ perceptions of writing instruction, while the second article examines the influence of technology (Augmented Reality) in English learning. In terms of structure, both articles have the same sections, such as abstract, introduction, methods, results, and discussion, but the writing styles are different—the first article is more descriptive and reflective, while the second article is more technical and innovative.

3. The methodology section was the most difficult for me to understand because it contained many research terms and technical explanations about research design, instruments, and data analysis, which were sometimes confusing.

4. Reading journal articles helped me improve my academic writing skills because I was able to learn how to construct formal sentences, write with a neat structure, and understand how other writers develop arguments based on data and theory.

1. Writing scientific articles is very important for English Education students because it trains them to become competent professionals and critical thinkers, and i use google schoolar for finding journal

3. methodology, methodology is difficult because it demands uncompromising accuracy and must be able to explain every decision we make.
4. because by reading journals we have more references.

1. Writing a scientific article is important for English education students because it trains us to think critically, organize ideas systematically, and use academic English properly. Through journal writing, we also learn how to support our arguments with valid data and credible sources, which is very useful for future research or thesis writing. To find the journals, I used ‘Google Scholar and ResearchGate’, which provide many open-access articles related to English education.

2. I analyzed two journal articles on the same topic: one quantitative and one qualitative study about students’ motivation in learning English. The quantitative article used the IMRAD structure (Introduction, Method, Results, and Discussion) with clear statistical data and charts. The qualitative article, on the other hand, had a more narrative structure and focused on descriptions, interviews, and thematic analysis. Both had similar sections like the abstract and references, but they differed in terms of data presentation and writing style—the quantitative one was more objective and concise, while the qualitative one was more descriptive and interpretive.

3. The part I find most difficult to understand is the methodology section, especially in quantitative studies. It often includes complex statistical terms, formulas, and data analysis techniques that require more background knowledge. Sometimes, the explanation of sampling or instrument validation is also quite technical.

4. Reading journal articles helps me improve my academic writing because I can learn the correct structure, academic vocabulary, and citation style. It also helps me see how professional researchers build arguments logically and cohesively. By analyzing how they write introductions, present findings, and discuss implications, I can apply similar techniques to improve my own research papers and assignments.

1. Writing a scientific article is important for English education students because it trains us to think critically, organize ideas logically, and express arguments using academic language. It also helps us engage with current research trends in language teaching and learning. Publishing an article allows us to contribute to the field, share our insights, and develop our academic credibility as future educators and researchers.
2. I used the Elsevier Journal Finder to look for journals related to English language education and teaching methodologies. It was useful because I could input the title and abstract of my topic, and the tool suggested journals that matched the scope and keywords of my research.
3. Find two or more journal articles on the same topic. Compare and find what similarities or differences did you notice in their structure or style.
I found two journal articles on the topic of “Using technology in English language teaching.”
4. Reading journal articles helps me improve my academic writing by exposing me to examples of formal structure, academic vocabulary, and citation styles. I learn how researchers frame research problems, connect theory to practice, and present their findings logically. Over time, I become more aware of how to organize my own writing, build coherent arguments, and use evidence effectively.

1. Writing scientific article is very important for English education students because it helps us develop critical thinking, academic writing, and research skills. Through the process of writing, we learn how to organize ideas logically, use evidence to support our arguments, and communicate professionally in English. It also allows us to contribute to the development of English teaching and learning by sharing our findings and experiences with other educators.
to find journal articles, I used Google Scholar because it provides access to many academic journals related to English language teaching, especially topics like anxiety, motivation, and classroom strategies.

2. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YNxl-7bdMPeJ_0WBJFzFGN_TpbMwE0AL?usp=sharing

3. The most difficult part for me to understand is usually the Methodology section, especially when the researchers explain statistical analysis or complex research designs. Sometimes, the authors use technical terms like t-count, significance value, correlation coefficient, or Likert scale, which can be confusing if we are not familiar with research terminology.
However, in qualitative studies like Wirentake (2025), the methodology is easier to follow because it focuses on interviews and observations rather than statistical analysis.

4. In my opinion, reading journal articles greatly helps me enhance my academic writing skills. Through reading, I can observe how professional researchers organize their ideas, build logical arguments, and maintain coherence in their writing. It also exposes me to a variety of academic expressions and vocabulary that I can apply in my own writing. Moreover, by analyzing how authors present data and discuss findings, I learn how to write more critically and objectively. Overall, reading journal articles helps me understand what good academic writing looks like and motivates me to improve my own work.

1. I think scientific articles are really important for English education students because they contain a lot of useful knowledge. From these articles, we can learn about many research findings related to the English learning environment that are valid and trustworthy. Reading scientific articles also helps us think more critically and see things from different perspectives, since they provide reliable and interesting information. That’s why I believe reading scientific articles is essential for English education students. Personally, I often use Google Scholar to find articles because it’s easy to access and full of credible sources.
2. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-MqExzuXegTYgOaEQdDDWJER3oX6qOdb/view?usp=sharing
3. In my perspective, the most difficult parts of a journal article are the methodology and discussion sections. These parts need deeper understanding and sometimes special guidance, because they deal with data analysis and how to explain the results clearly. It’s not something we can just guess or do carelessly, we really need to know what we’re doing. That’s why I think students should get more support or mentoring to fully understand these sections.
4. I believe reading journal articles can really help us improve our academic writing skills. By reading different kinds of academic works, we can learn how to organize ideas better, use the right academic words, and follow the correct structure of a research paper. It also helps us become more open-minded and critical when reading or writing something. The more we read journal articles, the more we understand how to write our own papers with confidence and better quality.

3. I read a journal about using Duolingo to improve students’ grammar skills, then I compared it with another journal that discussed a similar topic. The structure of both was the same, with an introduction, methods, results, and discussion (IMRaD). But one of them had more complete explanations, especially in the statistics section.
4. The part that confused me the most was the methodology, because there were many technical terms and explanations about research design that were sometimes difficult to understand if you were not familiar with the terms.
5. By reading journals, I learned how to write well and correctly, from how to organize ideas, use more formal language, to understanding the correct structure of academic writing. So, it can be useful for writing assignments or theses later on.

1. In my opinion, writing an article is very important for English education students. This is because knowledge about language learning and the use of technology in English language learning is currently growing. This is certainly influenced by social conditions, increasingly sophisticated developments and supported by easy access to technology and the large number of people who are aware of the importance of learning and using English to support their careers, whether in education or other fields of work. It is hoped that the research conducted by English education students can produce concrete data that is presented in a scientific article about knowledge or English learning activities in order to improve the effectiveness of learning in the classroom. Additionally, it is hoped that writing a scientific article about English language learning can open new perspectives and ways of thinking for readers, showing them that English language learning is important to study and that language will always undergo development influenced by social conditions and the times.
I use Google Scholar to search for references to support my research article writing activities, because Google Scholar is one of the most reliable journal finders.

In the introduction, I am still a little confused about what aspects should be included in the introduction and how to organize and describe them clearly so that readers can easily understand the direction and purpose of the research conducted by the author.

4. In my opinion, reading many journal articles can help novice researchers like me in terms of improving academic writing skills, particularly in the brainstorming stage (searching for ideas). The more journal articles you read, the more insights and knowledge you gain, which facilitates the process of writing and compiling a research paper. This is because through reading, writers become aware of unresolved issues and research that has not yet been conducted, which can be used as research gaps for future research.

1. From my point of view, writing scientific articles is crucial for English language learners because it forms the foundation of their academic and professional development. This process trains students in critical thinking and research from problem formulation and literature review to data analysis essential skills for further study and careers.

2. I usually use Google Scholar to search for and read journal articles. I found two journals with the same theme: “APPLYING DIGITAL STORYTELLING TO IMPROVE INDONESIAN HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS’ VISUAL MEMORY AND WRITING SKILLS” and “The use of digital storytelling to improve students’ writing skills.” Both articles use the IMRaD (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion) structure, which is the standard format for scientific research articles. The difference between the two articles lies in the research subject.

3. The most difficult sections of journal articles for me to understand are usually the Methodology and Discussion. This difficulty arises because these two sections often present information in great detail and use dense technical language.

4. Reading journal articles helped improve my academic writing skills because journals served as role models. I learned firsthand how experts logically structure arguments (IMRaD), from introduction to conclusion. Furthermore, I was exposed to a formal and precise style of writing, which taught me how to use technical terminology correctly and master proper citation and referencing skills, which are the gold standard in scientific writing.

1. It moves students from being consumers of knowledge to producers of knowledge. They learn the conventions, structure, and formal tone of academic discourse, which is a powerful form of communication in its own right. The process forces them to formulate a clear research question, find and synthesize existing literature, and construct a logical, evidence-based argument. In my research process, I primarily rely on Google Scholar

3. The Methodology section is often the most challenging for me, particularly in quantitative studies. It is filled with field-specific and statistical terminology , The descriptions of experimental designs, data collection instruments, and statistical analyses require a certain level of technical knowledge to evaluate the validity and reliability of the study.
4. I see how other researchers integrate sources, paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting to support their claims and engage in a scholarly conversation. This teach me how to use evidence effectively.

1. I think it’s important because it helps us learn how to write formally, think critically, and understand how to support our ideas with evidence. As future teachers, we also need to know how to explain ideas clearly and professionally.
2. I used Google Scholar because it’s easy to use and I can find many journal articles there.
3. I read two articles about using apps for learning vocabulary—one about Quizlet, and the other about Kahoot. Both had similar structure: abstract, intro, method, results, and conclusion. But the language was a bit different. The Quizlet article was harder to understand, while the Kahoot one was easier and had more pictures and graphs.
4. The methodology part is the hardest for me because it has a lot of research terms and numbers that I don’t fully understand yet.
5. It helps me learn how to write in a formal way, how to organize my ideas, and how to use sources correctly. I also learn new vocabulary and how to write more clearly.

Thank you for submitting your questions. However, these questions are not quite strong or relevant enough for the upcoming interview with journal editors or reviewers.
• The question about time management is more related to personal writing habits, not to the publication process.
• The question about rejection or harsh feedback is quite common and does not lead to new or specific insights.
• The question about important parts of a research article is too general and already well known.
• The question “What are the most common mistakes students make in organizing their article structure?” is a good and relevant question. However, it is placed in the wrong category.
• This question should be moved to Category 3 – Challenges, because it focuses on the difficulties or problems writers often face when organizing their articles, rather than on the structure itself.

Please create new questions that are more meaningful and focused on the editors’ or reviewers’ professional perspectives — for example, what specific criteria they use when deciding whether to accept or reject an article, or what common weaknesses they often find in submissions.

4. Reading journal articles helps me understand how to write in a more academic and organized way. I can learn how authors develop their ideas, connect paragraphs, and support their statements with evidence. It also helps me improve my vocabulary and get used to formal expressions. The more I read, the more I understand how good academic writing should look.

Generating good questions is essential for deeper understanding and research planning. Based on the previous topics—the importance of academic writing and the necessity of journal publication—here are five high-level questions suitable for academic discussion, self-reflection, or a research proposal

Academic writing is a formal and structured way to present research supported by evidence. We have learned that it follows the IMRaD format and must include reliable references while avoiding plagiarism. Although we have not published a journal article yet, we understand that the process requires clear ideas, formal language, and careful review before acceptance. From our class experiences, we know an article usually includes a title, abstract, introduction, literature review, methodology, results, discussion, and references. Through this discussion, we hope to learn more about how to write and publish a good-quality research article, so we prepared several questions to guide us in the process.

These questions target the persistent difficulties in teaching and learning speaking skills in an EFL context.

“Beyond large class sizes, what is the single biggest systemic barrier that prevents you from providing students with adequate authentic, spontaneous speaking practice?” (To teachers/administrators)

“Describe a time when a student hesitated or refused to speak in English. What specific classroom factor (e.g., grading, peer anxiety, topic relevance) do you believe caused that hesitation?” (To teachers/students)

“How do you currently balance the instruction of grammatical accuracy with the need for communicative fluency in your speaking lessons?” (To teachers)

🤖 AI Literacy and Pedagogical Integration
These questions relate to the findings on AI literacy (low scores in Practical Skills and AI-Based Pedagogy) and the proposed Inquiry AI Learning Model.

“If you had access to a dedicated AI tool for teaching speaking, what is the most challenging pedagogical task (e.g., personalized feedback, motivating reluctant speakers) you would delegate to it?” (To teachers)

“Your conceptual knowledge of AI may be moderate, but your practical skill usage is low. What specific training or resources would best help you translate your understanding of AI’s potential into effective classroom application?” (To teachers)

“How do you envision the teacher’s role changing—from lecturer to facilitator—in a classroom that heavily uses AI for individualized speaking practice?” (To teachers/administrators)

That’s an excellent, comprehensive plan for conducting research interviews on the complex topic of scientific publishing. Since I can’t physically conduct the interview, I will provide the refinement and finalization of the interview questions, a professional interview schedule, and a template for summarizing the findings.

📝 Finalized Interview Questions
The following questions are designed to be open-ended, encouraging detailed and reflective responses from experts (professors, experienced researchers, journal editors, or peer reviewers).

a. Process: Steps in Writing and Submitting ➡️
“Can you walk me through your typical process, from ‘final data analysis’ to ‘first journal submission’? What are the non-negotiable steps you always follow?”

“At what point in the research lifecycle do you usually select your target journal, and how does that early selection influence your writing style and structure?”

“Describe the key differences in how you prepare the manuscript for the first submission versus how you revise it after receiving ‘Major Revisions’ feedback.”

b. Quality: Characteristics of a High-Quality Article ⭐
“In your opinion, what is the single most important element that distinguishes a ‘publishable’ article from a ‘rejected’ one, assuming the research is technically sound?”

“When reviewing, what tells you immediately that an article is well-written? Is it the clarity of the Methodology, the rigor of the Results, or the strength of the Discussion?”

“How critical is the ‘novelty’ or ‘originality’ of the findings compared to the clarity and elegance of the writing itself?”

c. Challenges: Common Obstacles 🚧
“From an author’s perspective, what is the most common time-consuming or mentally taxing hurdle faced during the writing phase, and how do you overcome it?”

“What are the most frequent reasons—other than ethical violations—for rejection letters you see or write? Is it primarily issues with English quality, statistical interpretation, or lack of scope?”

“What challenges do you face when trying to simplify complex data or highly technical procedures for a broad, interdisciplinary audience?”

d. Resources: Support and Tools 🛠️
“What specific tools, software, or support systems (e.g., statistical consultation, language editing) do you consider essential for a new researcher aiming for high-impact publication?”

“In your experience, what is the value of seeking pre-submission peer review or feedback from non-authors before formally submitting the manuscript?”

“What kind of training or mentorship should universities prioritize to improve the scientific writing skills of Ph.D. students and early-career researchers?”

e. Structure & Content: Main Components 🏗️
“In the Introduction section, what is the optimal strategy for moving from the broad context to the specific research gap and finally to the thesis/objective?”

“What are the most critical pieces of information that must be included in the Discussion section beyond simply restating the results, and how should they be structured?”

“How should authors approach the Limitations and Future Work section to make it sound constructive and not merely defensive?”
