The era of disruption becomes an era of innovations in various fields, including education. One of the impacts of the era of disruption is the readiness of English teachers in teaching. This study aims to investigate the understanding of English teachers in the era of disruption, the obstacles, and challenges of English teachers and how the teachers utilize the era of disruption in English learning. This study used a qualitative study through semi-structured interviews and classroom observation by engaging ten English teachers as subjects of research. The results show that some English teachers are not realizing that currently, the world is in the era of disruption; they even do not understand what the era of disruption is. However, they do not realize that they use the technology innovation affected by the era of disruption. English teachers face the internal and external obstacles: (1) the lack of motivation in conducting learning innovation by always updating the technology that is relevant to the times so as not to lose to the technological abilities of students; (2) some teachers have a limited understanding of how to integrate technology into teaching; and (3) limitations of available technological facilities. Meanwhile the challenge faced by the teachers is about controlling the internet content accessed by the students. English teachers utilize the era of disruption by integrating the use of technology in English learning.

Subjects were 15 student teachers enrolled at a state university in Indonesia. Data were gathered using think-aloud tasks, retellings, a reading comprehension test, in-depth interviews, and casual observation. Two students' strategy profiles are presented here, including the text used and points at which the students were asked to think aloud, data on the 'Dccurrence of specific strategies used by each student, excerpts from the protocols (in Indonesian), and discussion of the findings. It is concluded that while both students were considered above-average readers, the strategies they used showed both similarities and differences. Both used a high proportion of paraphrasing and inferring strategies. The students appeared to use differential monitoring processes, text evaluation, exemplification, and approaches to understanding text construction. Observations are made about the utility of the different types of data gathering (retellings, comprehension test, interviews, observations) in addition to the think-aloud protocol.

Good teaching materials are those developed based on an appropriate needs analysis. In this era of globalization, nurses must be skillful not only in nursing, but also in communicating in English with non-Indonesian patients. Therefore, one of the goals of nursing education is the mastery of spoken English. Related to this issue, the research reported in this paper aims to develop the appropriate speaking materials for the second semester students of nursing program based on their needs. This is a research and development study conducted at a nursing school in Yogyakarta. The development of the materials went through seven steps: conducting needs analysis, designing the course grid, developing the first draft of the textbook, getting the expert judgment, revising the product, implementing the product, and evaluating the product. The data were obtained from questionnaires and interview. The questionnaires were analyzed using quantitative data analysis, while the interview data were analyzed using qualitative data analysis. The research findings reveal the real needs of nursing students, the teacher's viewpoints on the practice of instructions, and the descriptions of English for nurses used in their field of work.

This research was collaborative classroom action research. The subjects were the 11 th grade students of Madrasah Aliyah Al-Ikhlash Cicalengka, Bandung. The data were collected through pretest and posttest, observation, field notes, and interviews. The students were introduced with the concept of critical thinking starting with the concept of position, agreement, disagreement, and argument as well as the categorization of the opinion and fact in the text. Finally the students were asked to do some tasks and give their opinion related to the position of the writer and their background knowledge. The result showed that there was an improvement in teaching processes. In the first cycle, the students' involvement in classroom activity was improved. There were about 70% of the students who actively involved in the process and it increased in the second cycle. In expressing opinion, the students could actively express their opinion related to the text being discussed both in written and orally. The improvement also occurred in students' reading comprehension skills score. The result of paired t-test showed that there was significant different in comparison of pretest and both posttests 1 and 2. The result showed that the significant value of 0.000 was smaller than the significant level of 0.05 or 5%. This means that the improvement was significant. The result proved that improving reading comprehension skills could be achieved by developing critical thinking in teaching reading process.

Studi kasus ini bertujuan mengungkap sejauh mana mahasiswa calon guru mampu memberikan alasan atas tindakan kelas yang dilakukan dalam pelatihan bahasa Inggris bagi pekerja industri kerajinan di Kabupaten Bantul dan Kota Yogyakarta. Data tentang tindakan, yang dikumpulkan melalui pengamatan non-partisipan yang didukung rekaman video, dianalisis dengan analisis model Blaxter, Hughes and Tight's (2006), sementara data tentang alasan tindakan dianalisis dengan model Miles & Huberman (1994: 10). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa calon guru dalam penelitian ini: (1) tidak selalu mampu memberikan alasan yang tepat atas tindakan yang secara pedagogik benar; (2) tidak mampu memberikan alasan atas sebagian besar tindakan yang secara pedagogik tidak tepat; dan (3) memberikan alasan yang berubah-ubah atas tindakan yang secara pedagogik tidak jelas tujuannya. Temuan kajian ini mendukung keraguan Chappell & Hawke (2003) apakah para guru memahami apa yang mereka lakukan.

To facilitate communication using English, other media are also needed to assist the implementation of English communication such as technology and information (Ma et al., 2015, Syakur, 2017). Indeed, the use of technology in the learning process provides opportunities and opportunities for teaching staff in this case lecturers to be able to improve and develop their competencies, especially professional competencies (Syakur, 2018, Saiz-Manzanares et al., 2020). The use of technology in learning problems in the classroom is expected to be able to provide solutions in overcoming learning in the classroom. This is caused by the less optimal role of a lecturer in utilizing technology in the world of education (Shah et al., 2011, Sulam et al., 2019). One of the things that can be utilized by the world of education, especially lecturers in learning English through the use of learning applications, one of which is Google Classroom (Wats and Wats, 2009, Syakur, 2019). This application is still popular even with an era like this Google Classroom is an innovation on the main menu for educators in Indonesia (Ortega-Moran et al., 2020, Syakur et al., 2020). This service is assumed to be one of the services in answering problems and challenges in Classroom. Like the limited time available in the class to discuss and study an assignment or material, especially English which is currently only maximized by 3 SCS (Semester Credit System).

The orientation of VHSs is to train students to be qualified enough for the world of work in the future. In other words, VHSs focus on the students' readiness to do certain job expertise. In order to achieve this goal, the English teacher should provide English learning materials that are appropriate to their fields and based on the students' need. Eventually, English teachers in VHSs are expected to have the ability to analyze the students' needs, so that they can design appropriate instructional materials. The purpose of this research was to describe the need analysis results of students who were prospective workers as well as English learners. This study involved 21 eleventh grade students of Multimedia Study Program at vocational school SMK Negeri 5 Jayapura.
