The current research investigated the effectiveness of a proposed extensive online listening program in preparing postgraduate students to take the TOEFL listening test and enhancing their online language learning autonomy. The program targeted training students on the three major listening comprehension skills addressed in the TOEFL-ITP listening tests (listening for basic comprehension, listening for pragmatic understanding, and listening to connect information). The quasiexperimental design was adopted using a pre-post administration for one group consisting of 15 Master's students at the Faculties of Education and Nursing. The research adopted two equivalent TOEFL-ITP listening tests to measure students' listening skills. An autonomy scale was also designed and administered to assess students' online learning autonomy. Some online tools were employed in the program to provide authentic, extensive listening materials and to facilitate students' interaction (ELLLO, TED Talks, VoA, and Microsoft Teams). The results revealed that the research group students' mean ranks in the post-administration of the listening test and the autonomy scale were significantly higher than the pre-administration. Accordingly, the extensive online listening program proved to have significant effectiveness in improving students' listening skills and enhancing their online learning autonomy.

“…Hal ini juga sesuai dengan penelitian sebelumnya terkait persepsi orang tua dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di sekolah (Permatasari, Ressa Dwi Citra;Taufiq 2021). Selanjutnya, dukungan media yang sudah ada juga merupakan alternatif penguat yang bisa digunakan oleh para guru untuk berlatih dan mengembangkan diri (Arum and Taufiq 2019;Santoso and Taufiq 2021;Sinta and Saftari 2022;Taufiq, Santoso, and Fediyanto 2018). Alasan yang paling utama tentu saja adalah perlunya pengembangan materi bahasa Inggris untuk kegiatan luar sekolah itu sendiri, yang diharapkan akan mampu meningkatkan sumber daya manusia sekolah sekaligus meningkatkan kepercayaan para stake holders (Taufiq, Sinduwiatmo, and Adji Kusuma 2020).…”

Community service activities aimed at teachers in the Muhammadiyah 5 Porong Elementary School in the form of training and mentoring of English language materials are based on the need for the application of the use of English in the school environment, especially since English has become a local content lesson. This service activity is carried out for 6 months. In this activity, training and mentoring is(Permatasari, Ressa Dwi Citra; Taufiq, 2021) centered on three main materials, namely the use of English in the classroom, namely the use of English that can be inserted or included in the material taught by the teacher. The second material is English for activities outside the classroom, namely interaction activities between teachers and students outside of class hours and the third is English for daily communication, which can be practiced between teachers on various occasions within the school. The teachers are very enthusiastic about this activity, and it is hoped that there will be follow-up activities related to the material taught later. Furthermore, it is hoped that after this activity, teachers will be able and brave to teach in English, using it in school activities and in daily activities to support the use of English in schools.

“…Thus, they can select materials intended for the students with the corresponding level of language proficiency. However, even the shortest version of TOEFL, such as Institutional TOEFL, consists of three sections (Taufiq et al, 2018). It requires two hours to complete, with a 30-minute preparation, which is less feasible to be conducted in a classroom with this limitation.…”

Using standardized tests such as paper-based TOEFL with three subtests for classroom assessment is restricted by the length of the test, which is usually longer than the class duration. Therefore, it is significant to be able to predict other subtests by conducting only one subtest. Therefore, the current study aimed to calculate prediction coefficients, enabling teachers to predict scores in paper-based TOEFL by conducting only one subtest. The data to create the prediction models were obtained from 2,030 scores of Institutional TOEFL, i.e. paper-based TOEFL without writing subtest. The prediction coefficient was calculated by using linear regression analysis. The result shows that the listening comprehension sub-score predicts the TOEFL score more accurately (MSE of 520) than other sub-scores (MSE of 553 and 587). The intercept for listening comprehension sub-score was 373.07, 357.14 for structure & written expression, and 364.19 for reading comprehension. In addition, the slope for each sub-score was 4.07, 5.96, and 4.63, respectively. Therefore, a listening test should be used in predicting the overall TOEFL scores for an accurate prediction.
