Abstract

The present study examines students’ perspectives regarding the potential English language enhancement on the implementation of video-making project in the business English course at a vocational higher education context. The video-making as the PBLL method is one of the effective teaching strategies because it encourages student participation in the learning process and fosters an environment conducive to active learning. Forty-eight students enrolled in business English course- the accounting program at the State Polytechnic of Ujung Pandang comprised the participants of this investigation. This study employed a mixed-methods approach (convergent design) and gathered quantitative and qualitative data through a questionnaire. By employing this methodology, the researcher gathered both types of data simultaneously incorporated the data into a comprehensive analysis of the research issues by interpreting the overall results. The results of this study indicate that using video-making project as a Project-Based Language Learning (PBLL) framework enhance the students’ English skills effectively. This method also enhances the students’ engagement and practical application of Business English concept. Moreover, through this project, the students claim that it fosters collaboration since they must work in group. However, they did face challenges in the implementation of this method, such as time management and technical aspect of video making.
