Strategy instruction (SI) and strategy-based writing instruction (SBI) in English in recent years have obtained great attention for having considerable educational and evaluation usefulness. Studies on how strategic teaching improves students’ writing ability were limited, resulting in significant gaps in the declarative and procedural knowledge of writing among university freshmen. To address this gap, this study was conducted to examine the effects of strategy instruction and strategy-based writing instruction on students' writing based on several parameters: content, organization, language, citation, idea, revision, modification, replacement, plagiarism, and creativity on students' writing ability. This experimental study involved 100 students majoring English Education at the State University of Malang. The results of the ANCOVA test on all dependent variables showed a significant effect on idea construction in both control and experimental group. This study revealed that SBI and SI positively affected students' writing ability, making them regarded as effective methods in teaching writing.

This research investigates the topic of dynamic assessment (DA) in an Indonesian setting and to a specific degree of competence to extract key facts. In the first phase of the investigation, quantitative data were collected, and analytic approaches were used. In the second phase, a qualitative approach was employed to explore learners' and teachers' impressions of DA on students' writing abilities. The participants were 100 students recruited from the State University of Malang, Indonesia. The paired and independent sample t-test results demonstrated that the DA enhances learners' writing skills on multiple levels, including content, vocabulary, language, organisation, and mechanics. It is strongly recommended that EFL writing teachers in all learning contexts use DA in academic EFL writing programs. Further research can look at some DA concerns and develop acceptable solutions.

Vocabulary has an important role in language learning at the college level, but in teaching practice, various obstacles are experienced by lecturers in implementing effective vocabulary learning. This study took place in Batam, Indonesia, and aims to investigate the English lecturers’ beliefs and practices in vocabulary learning; the phenomena of how they negotiate their teaching practices and what determines their choice of teaching methods when it comes to vocabulary learning. Five English lecturers from different universities were interviewed. The results of the interview were transcribed and analyzed based on the themes that appeared from data. The results showed that a requirement for practicality in class, curriculum, student atmosphere, and lecturers’ confidence in applying the right methods have effects on vocabulary learning. Lecturers have combined vocabulary learning with reading, writing, listening, and speaking in class. The main reference of a coursebook as the main guidance of the vocabulary learning varied between one class and another. All lecturers stated that they should find their own way to adopt external sources such as songs, vocabulary learning programs, and games to combine with their coursebook to beneficially meet the students’ preference. The new technology of teaching and learning is now part of classroom activities. Henceforth, this study concludes that the lecturers’ beliefs in the vocabulary learning approach are important. In practice, the lecturers need to combine them with various methods as the class situation do not always count on academic interests.
