Language Attitudes and Identity Construction of Rotenese EFL Learners in the English Department: A Case Study

XML

This case study examines Rotenese undergraduate EFL learners' attitudes toward English and how these attitudes shape their identity construction in English Education Study Program at Nusa Cendana University. The study aims to understand both the learners' attitudes toward English and the way these attitudes influence their identity formation. The study employs a mixed-method research design, combining both qualitative and quantitative approaches to provide a comprehensive analysis. A Likert scale questionnaire was used to gather quantitative data on the learners' attitudes, while semi-structured interviews offered qualitative insights into their experiences and identity formation. Results reveal varied attitudes shaped by personal backgrounds and motivations; while Nick and Allan display highly positive attitudes and active engagement, Angel, Mirma, and Endang show mixed feelings influenced by confidence and external factors. Generally, positive attitudes contribute to proactive and confident learner identities, whereas mixed attitudes lead to hesitancy and self-doubt. The implications of this study suggest that fostering positive attitudes toward English could enhance students' engagement and confidence, contributing to stronger learner identities. Language educators may consider integrating strategies that address both the cognitive and affective components of language learning to support EFL learners in overcoming challenges related to self-doubt and hesitation. Furthermore, the study underscores the importance of understanding students' individual motivations and backgrounds, as these factors can significantly influence their language learning experiences and identity development.
