Abstract

The study aims to explore student involvement in vocabulary learning through the Total Physical Response (TPR) method. The TPR method combines physical movement with language learning processes, which are believed to improve student memory and understanding. This research uses a qualitative approach to the design of case studies. The study collected data through observations, interviews, and pre- and post-test vocabulary tests. The results showed that students showed positive engagement, both behavioral, emotional, and cognitive. Significant improvements in vocabulary skills also increased, as seen from the average student vocabulary test score after the application of the TPR method, from 38.55 on the pretest to 81.11 on the posttest. Observations and interviews revealed that students were more active and involved in the learning process, showing a higher interest and positive response to TPR methods. In addition, physical movements associated with vocabulary learning help students memorize and understand vocabulary better.

Abstract

Writing is a fundamental language skill that plays a crucial role in academic and professional success. Descriptive writing, in particular, requires students to vividly portray ideas, experiences, or concepts using words. The purpose of this study is to provide educators and policy makers with valuable insights into targeted interventions to help students overcome barriers and achieve proficiency with writing descriptive. The use of a purposive sampling method ensures targeted selection of participants, taking into account factors such as program specialization. This is achieved by ensuring comprehensive representation of the student population, through a strategic selection of participants who will offer a variety of insights. n conclusion, The teacher uses the "picture to picture" method, where students are asked to observe the picture and its description. Some students who feel confused by the picture to picture method, students find it more difficult to observe and express the characteristics of quiet people, lack of confidence in writing descriptions, limited mastery of English vocabulary and grammar. This causes students to lack confidence in writing descriptions using grammatically correct English.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a Design-Based Research (DBR) workshop in enhancing junior high school teachers' capacity to address educational problems. A four-day workshop was attended by 20 teachers from 5 junior high schools in a sample city. Mixed methods were used to analyze workshop outcomes, including pre-post surveys, analysis of mini DBR proposals, semi-structured interviews, and longitudinal follow-ups. Results show significant improvement in teachers' understanding and skills related to DBR. The workshop produced 15 mini DBR proposals ready for implementation. Key challenges included time constraints for data analysis, variation in participants' initial understanding, and concerns about institutional support. A three-month follow-up revealed that 60% participants had initiated DBR projects in their schools. This study highlights the potential of DBR workshops in enhancing research-based practices in schools and recommends strategies for sustainable implementation. The follow-up survey revealed that 60% of participants had initiated DBR projects in their schools within three months of the workshop. The analysis of the DBR implementation revealed several critical factors that contributed to successful outcomes, as well as certain barriers that posed challenges to the implementation process.
