                  1. Review the provided materials carefully.
                  Based on the review of the author guidelines and sample journal articles, it is clear that the process of writing a scientific paper must strictly follow academic structure and ethics. Each journal provides specific requirements that include formatting, citation style, and plagiarism limits. The common structure used is IMRaD, which requires writers to organize ideas systematically and logically. This aligns with Miss Gartika’s perspective, who also emphasizes the importance of following journal structures and understanding the function of each section so that the writing appears coherent, focused, and easy for readers to follow.

                  2a. How do your interview findings align or differ from the journal guidelines?
                  The interview findings with Miss Gartika show a strong alignment with the journal guidelines. She stated that the process of writing a scientific article begins with identifying a research gap and ensuring novelty, which are also essential points mentioned in the author guidelines. Both stress the importance of originality and clarity in structure. The main difference lies in focus: the guidelines emphasize technical aspects such as formatting, writing style, and citation, while Miss Gartika focuses more on the academic thinking process, including understanding theories, developing ideas, and maintaining consistency between the research questions and results.

                  2b. What practices or standards in the sample articles reflect (or contrast with) what you observed during interviews?
                  The practices observed in the sample article strongly reflect Miss Gartika’s explanations. In the article, the introduction directly highlights the main issue and the research gap, just as she suggested to help readers quickly understand the direction of the research. The discussion section also demonstrates an analysis that connects the findings with theoretical concepts, consistent with Miss Gartika’s advice on showing theoretical understanding in the discussion. However, there is a slight difference: Miss Gartika emphasized the importance of the process, such as using AI tools or literature mapping during writing, while the article itself does not display these aspects since they belong to the preparation stage before publication.

                  2c. Are there any challenges or strategies mentioned in your interviews that are addressed in the materials?
                  Some challenges mentioned by Miss Gartika, such as writer’s block, difficulty in determining variables, and maintaining originality, are indirectly addressed in the author guidelines. The journal guidelines highlight the importance of clarity, originality, and compliance with publication ethics all of which serve as strategies to overcome these challenges. Additionally, Miss Gartika suggested that writers should read more references and use AI tools wisely to help generate ideas and improve language quality. These strategies reinforce the idea presented in the materials that the quality of an article is determined not only by the final result but also by the systematic, critical, and ethical writing process.

                  3. Identify key similarities, differences, and patterns that indicate key characteristics of high-quality scientific writing.
                  From the comparison between the interview with Miss Gartika, the author guidelines, and the sample article, several key patterns emerge. The characteristics of high-quality scientific writing include clear novelty, consistent IMRaD structure, strong connection between theory and data, and adherence to academic standards and publication ethics. The similarities among all sources lie in emphasizing originality, coherence, and clarity of arguments. The difference is that Miss Gartika focuses more on the human and reflective aspects of the writing process such as managing ideas, overcoming difficulties, and using technology while the guidelines and article concentrate more on the final product. These patterns indicate that high-quality scientific writing results from a combination of critical thinking, theoretical depth, and accuracy in following journal standards, as emphasized by Miss Gartika.

                    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.

                    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.

                      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.
