Abstract

This paper discusses the improvement of the reading-aloud ability of grade 2 elementary school students through a constructivism approach. The research uses the classroom action method, which begins with the pre-cycle stages, cycle 1 and cycle 2 where each stage includes planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. After carrying out the research procedures and collecting data, the results indicate that the reading-aloud ability of grade 2 students using the constructivism approach provided a significant increase in grade 2 elementary school students’ reading-aloud ability. The assessment indicators of reading aloud ability were pronunciation, intonation, fluency, and students' courage, which describes an improvement in the students' reading-aloud ability test. The average pre-cycle score of students' reading-aloud ability was 67.85 increased to 73.53 in cycle 1. Subsequently, the average score increased to 80.23 in cycle 2. Based on the research results above, the researcher concludes that students' reading-aloud ability could be improved by using a constructivism approach for grade 2 elementary school students.

Abstract

Early in 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic spread in almost all regions of Indonesia, which resulted in changes in the teaching process. Teaching was carried out by using various digital applications, one of which was WhatsApp application. The purpose of this study was to describe the teaching through WhatsApp application as a learning resource and tool, and to find out the effect of WhatsApp on the students’ reading ability at grade 1. The method in this study was a quantitative experimental research with a questionnaire, interviews, and observations as the instruments. The subjects of this study were grade I students who were registered in elementary schools and participating in teaching with WhatsApp. The results of the study illustrated that WhatsApp application used by the teacher was ineffective as a medium and learning tool for grade 1 elementary school students. The data revealed that 70% of parents stated that their children were not yet able to read, 12% of parents stated that their children were not able to recognize and pronounce words correctly. In conclusion, WhatsApp had no effect on students' initial reading abilities during the Covid-19 pandemic as the result of the hypothesis testing indicated that the probability value (significance) was 0.000; thus, Ho was rejected. Using WhatsApp application as a medium for early reading was not recommended.Keywords: , ,
