“…The application of vocabulary in real-world contexts further underscores the relevance of experiential learning, as students indicate difficulty in applying technical terms within professional environments. Similar to the conclusions reached by Abrahamse et al (2015) and Astri et al (2022), this underscores the significance of proficient communication within the domain of PA. The two research findings suggest that a comprehensive approach should be taken toward language education in specialized fields.…”

The lack of attention given in scholarly research to the particular requirements of Public Administration has resulted in a knowledge deficit to suit students' interests in this discipline. Prior research has predominantly examined the quantitative dimensions of vocabulary acquisition while neglecting to adequately consider the qualitative aspects, including comprehension and language use, in a contextually appropriate manner. This study aims to fill in these knowledge deficits by investigating vocabulary themes or topics related to Public Administration, evaluating existing instructional approaches and challenges, and suggesting enhancements to bolster students' English language proficiency in Public Administration. The study employs a qualitative methodology, including an open-ended questionnaire and in-depth interviews with four lecturers and 100 first-year students from three universities in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The findings revealed that the English for Public Administration curriculum requires a diverse vocabulary of topics from administration, management, and governance to more nuanced areas such as economics, finance, taxation, social and ethics, technology and digitalization, leadership, and regulation and law. Various teaching and assessment strategies regarding instructional methods, including interactive and collaborative methods, technology integration, and contextual learning, suggest the importance of engaging students with diverse and practically relevant content to prepare them for the multifarious nature of public sector roles. Students, however, found some challenges in the complexity of the Public Administration vocabulary, highlighting the need for tailoring educational strategies, such as project-based learning and vocabulary reinforcement techniques, to overcome these obstacles. The study's findings have substantial implications for policymakers, curriculum developers, and lecturers specializing in public administration education.

“…In addition, to overcome the problems elementary school teachers face at SIKL, a needs analysis is needed before designing the program (Bekteshi & Xhaferi, 2020;Hazin et al, 2023). Needs analysis is a necessary first step in designing an English class, especially in designing English language learning materials (Astri et al, 2022;Trujeque-Moreno et al, 2021). The project team conducts a needs analysis before planning a community service program for partner schools.…”

To help the teaching and learning process, community service is carried out in two programs: designing digital student workbooks and assisting English language learning by integrating English for Young Learners activities. This study aims to report on implementing the English teaching assistant program for elementary school teachers. Descriptive research is used to describe activities that are expected to improve the teaching and learning process in the two partner schools. The subjects of this research were three elementary school teachers and six volunteer teachers from Indonesian students. This type of research is qualitative research. In collecting data, this research used interview and observation methods. The instruments used in this research include a list of interview questions for elementary school teachers and observation sheets to record the activities of English teaching assistants in the classroom. The approach used is descriptive because this research aims to describe an existing phenomenon: the English teaching assistant program for elementary school teachers at the Kuala Lumpur Indonesian School. Thus, the results of implementing the program show that community service has been carried out effectively to meet the needs of partner schools. Furthermore, teachers and school coordinators highlighted their positive feedback regarding the program results, indicating that the project team was successful in implementing the teaching assistant program in partner schools. In this way, the intended program presented to the community can be implemented effectively and is expected to continue in future partnerships.
