“…A new finding was found, which is that it eases students to understand sentence function, helping them to write and speak English. Moreover, their assignments can be done well with the learning using YouTube videos compared to the study of Mahmudah & Izzah (2019) that focuses on the aspect of students' understanding of simple past tense only. This study is also able to solve the problem of non native students during ODL for English subject similar to what is in the study of Tolkach & Pratt (2021) but it focuses more on tourism and hospitality.…”

In late 2019, the world was shaken when an unprecedented infectious pandemic, Coronavirus Disease, or Covid-19, broke out. As a result, all Malaysians are obligated to comply with and follow the new regulations based on guidelines provided by the Malaysian Ministry of Health (MOH). The situation affects the entire national education system regarding the Teaching and Learning (T&L) process. To ensure continuity in students' learning, the structure of T&L, which was previously conducted conventionally or face-to-face and centred on educators and students directly, has been changed to virtual and digital using the methods of Teaching and Learning at Home or Open and Distance Learning (ODL). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out the students in UiTM Melaka's perceptions on the effectiveness of teacher-made videos on YouTube as a teaching and learning tool during ODL. A set of questionnaires was distributed to students to seek input for this quantitative study. The data was analysed, and findings suggest that most of the students are highly interested in using lecturer-made videos in learning. In addition, students found that the use of YouTube assists them effectively in completing their course assignments and study assessments. As a result, it can be deduced that the use of lecturer-made videos in YouTube encourage the students to have meaningful learning experience and serve the aims of Open and Distance Learning.

Extensive listening is crucial for language development, especially when students' exposure to the target language is not adequate. This study presents how VOA Learning English website is integrated into an English listening classroom as a listening activity outside the class. Data were collected through questionnaires and learners' extensive listening journal weekly entries, seeking to examine students' learning experiences and views on experiencing the website. Thirty undergraduate students participated in this study for 14 weeks. Results indicated that learners were satisfied with their learning experience as they had the chance to select materials that they found suitable and appropriate to their proficiency level and interests. Although the students did not enjoy writing the weekly journal assigned after extensive listening, they discovered that learning from VOA Learning English is convenient and useful in enriching their vocabularies and widening their knowledge of the world.

“…Previous study reported that students were found to exhibit errors when it comes to writing recount text in which simple past tense is the core. Errors in writing simple past tense through various texts including narrative and recount text has been reported in high school and college settings (Burhan, 2019;Chan, 2016;Devie et al, (2019); Kristiani Br Ginting & Purwanto, 2019a;Mahmudah, (2017); Nurul Amla, (2022). ; Situmeang et al, 2021;Umar, 2015;Wahyuningtyas & Bram, 2018a).…”

“…Additionally, the negative and interrogative sentences are constructed through the emergence of the "did" as auxiliary verbs. Whenever "did" appears in the sentence, the verbs will turn into the infinitive (see more in Mahmudah, 2017.). Apparently, all these formulas have put more challenges to students as to why many of them fail in writing the grammatically correct simple past tense sentence.…”

Nursing students learn General English (GE) to prepare them to study English for Nursing as their core subject. The primary goal of GE is to prepare them to be able to talk about daily topics and grammar points including simple past tense which was taught implicitly. In fact, teaching grammar is assumed to be trivial lately as teachers shift to more into English teaching trends. Therefore, it is important to go to the root and find ways to help students with their grammar struggle. This study seeks to find the nursing students’ error in simple past tense through scrutinizing their writing and thus can evaluate the teaching grammar method. The methodology was descriptive quantitative where 50 students’ writing assignments were the data. The errors were identified in the table and were classified based on the error types based on Duly’s surface strategy taxonomy. The errors were then analysed quantitatively to find percentages of the errors. The excerpts from the students’ writing were included in the result to support the analysis. The findings indicate that mis-formation were the biggest errors with 57.59%, mis-ordering with 20.98%, addition with 12.95%, and omission with the smallest error with 8.48%. The analysis indicates that the interlingual and intralingual transfer contribute to these errors made. Thus, there needs to be a reflection on the grammar teaching done in nursing students now. Teachers should focus on helping the students with their grammar difficulties and flexibly switch the teaching implicitly and explicitly to suit the students need.
