Abstract

Learning processes that remain dominated by teacher-centered instruction often limit students’ opportunities to engage in active verbal interaction, resulting in underdeveloped speaking abilities. This condition highlights the need for more exploratory and participatory learning approaches that allow students to construct oral communication meaningfully. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of a storytelling-based role-playing activity using character masks in enhancing students’ speaking skills. The research employed a quasi-experimental method with a one-group pre-test–post-test design involving 21 elementary students as research subjects. Data were collected through a speaking performance test, classroom observations, and documentation, with instruments validated through content validation by expert judgment. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired sample t-test, and N-Gain analysis. The findings indicate that the role-playing activity substantially improved students’ speaking performance, as reflected in a significant score increase from pre-test to post-test, categorized as highly effective based on the N-Gain value. These results imply that storytelling-based role play can serve as a relevant pedagogical strategy to strengthen students’ speaking proficiency while simultaneously promoting greater engagement in the learning process.

Abstract

The problem of this research lies in the suboptimal utilization of students' writing skills in the field of digital literacy entrepreneurship and the still low self-regulation and metacognitive abilities in the essay writing process. Writing learning in higher education still focuses on the final result, so that the process of planning, monitoring, and evaluation of writing has not been developed optimally. This study aims to analyze, evaluate, and test the effectiveness of the writerpreneur e-platform based on a metacognitive approach in improving students' essay writing and digital literacy entrepreneurship competencies. This study used a quasi-experimental research type with a nonequivalent control group design. The research subjects were 250 students and who were divided into experimental and control groups of 125 students each. Data collection methods were carried out through essay writing tests, digital entrepreneurship questionnaires, observations, and interviews using writing assessment rubrics, Likert scales, and interview guidelines. Data analysis used descriptive statistics, ANCOVA, chi-square tests, and t-tests. The results of the study indicate that the metacognitive-based writerpreneur e-platform significantly improves essay writing competency in the aspects of task achievement, coherence and cohesion, vocabulary, and grammatical accuracy, while also increasing students' motivation, interest, attitude, and self-efficacy in digital literacy entrepreneurship. The conclusion of the study shows that the integration of metacognitive-based technology effectively optimizes students' writing and digital entrepreneurship skills.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to develop digital teaching materials for explanatory texts designed for students in junior high school. The following issues represent the primary challenges associated with this research: (1) What is the optimal design of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs? (2) What are the outcomes of the implementation of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs? This research employs the research and development method (R&D) with the ADDIE model (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation). The research methodology comprises the following steps: analysis of needs, design of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, development of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, implementation of digital teaching materials for explanatory text, and evaluation of digital teaching materials for explanatory text. In this study, data were collected from the results of validation questionnaires completed by experts in learning models, media, and implementation in learning, as well as from the actual implementation of the learning model. The data were subjected to descriptive analysis using the Likert scale and paired sample t-test. The validation test conducted with material experts yielded a score of 3.5, while the test with media experts returned a score of 3.9. The validation test with Indonesian language teachers also produced a score of 3.9. The implementation of digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanatory texts for junior high school/MTs students prompted positive responses from the students, resulting in a score of 3.5. The findings of this study indicate that digital teaching materials for critical thinking explanations for junior high school/MTs students satisfy the criteria for feasibility in terms of their potential use as a learning model by teachers of Indonesian language subjects on explanatory text material for junior high school/MTs class VIII students.
