Abstract

This study concentrated on assessing the effects of the mind mapping technique on enhancing students' speaking skills, tackling the frequent difficulty of articulating thoughts in English. The research was driven by students' difficulties in communication stemming from a lack of motivation, fear of making errors, and limited vocabulary. Conducted as a pre-experimental quantitative study at SMP Negeri 4 Muara Bungo, the research involved 30 eighth-grade students from class VIII 6, selected through cluster random sampling. Data gathering involved a preliminary test, an intervention phase, and a final assessment.. The results revealed a significant improvement in speaking performance, with mean scores increasing from 55. 00 in the initial assessment to 67. 83 in the final assessment.The t-test value of 7.409 exceeded the critical t-value of 2.034 at the significance level, confirming the intervention's effectiveness. Furthermore, the normality test values improved from 2.87 to 7.22, reflecting a total gain of 4.35 in speaking ability. In conclusion, The method of mind mapping was found to be extremely useful in improving the oral communication abilities of eighth graders at SMPN 4 Muara Bungo by providing a structured visual framework that enables students to organize and articulate their ideas with greater confidence.

Abstract

This research tittle is Students' Perceptions of Using Ice Breaking in English Learning at At Sd Alam Muara Bungo. English learning in elementary schools often faces challenges in maintaining student concentration and motivation. One strategy used is icebreaking, an activity to break the ice, increase engagement, and create a pleasant learning atmosphere. This study aims to describe the perceptions of fourth-grade students at Muara Bungo Natural Elementary School regarding the use of icebreaking in English learning. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with fourth-grade students as subjects. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews, with interview protocol based on Bandura's social learning theory. Data analysis was conducted thematically using NVivo 12. The results showed that most students had positive perceptions, considering icebreaking to be calming, increase enthusiasm, focus, and self-confidence. However, a small number of students expressed negative perceptions, such as boredom due to the lack of variety and discomfort in participating. These findings emphasize the importance of icebreaking variations tailored to students' needs for optimal benefits.
