Abstract

This research investigates the impact of social media usage on language development in adolescents. The study focuses on how frequent exposure to digital platforms affects vocabulary acquisition, language comprehension, and communication skills. It also examines the influence of online interactions on the development of informal and formal language styles among teenagers. Using a mixed-methods approach, including surveys and in-depth interviews, the findings highlight both the positive and negative effects of social media on language use. While social media fosters creativity and expands vocabulary through constant exposure to diverse content, it also presents challenges such as the informalization of language and potential negative impacts on grammar and writing skills. This research underscores the importance of balancing online interactions with real-world communication and parental guidance in shaping healthy language development in the digital age.

This research investigates how effective the Problem Based Learning (PBL) method is at improving students’ understanding of reading through narrative texts in SMP GKPS 13 Sibarou. The study was motivated by the finding that numerous eighth-grade students struggled with grasping text organization and main concepts in their reading materials.

The research included 14 students who were paired up, and it utilized worksheets, observation forms, reading comprehension assessments, and documentation as tools. Activities were crafted to encourage students to recognize the organization of narrative texts, apply past tense verbs, and derive meaning through guided inquiry. The reading aloud method aided learners in enhancing their pronunciation, fluency, and understanding of the texts. The findings indicated a significant improvement in students' narrative text comprehension, along with heightened confidence, involvement, and critical thinking skills. The incorporation of PBL encouraged teamwork and a more profound engagement with the content.
