Abstract

Language is something that humans have from birth, both verbal and nonverbal. Every child's language development is different. In the early stages, children will use simple words to express what they want to say. Late talker refers to delays the development of spoken language in children, including delays in understanding language, pronouncing words correctly, and the ability to speaking fluently. This study aims to: 1. Explore the phonological processes produced by late talkers; and 2. Explore the dominant sound errors that occur in late talkers. The samples were 15 late talkers aged 3-5 years. The method used qualitative, the data was collected by observation and using the PRAAT software to analyze the pronunciation errors. PRAAT is software written and maintained by Paul Boersma and David Weenink from the University of Amsterdam. The findings show that there are 26 processes, namely lateral substitution, flap substitution, palatal fronting, onset deletion, velarization, cluster reduction, velar fronting, approximats substitution, affricates substitution, devoicing, favorite sound, voicing, nasalization, consonant vowel interaction, nasal simplification, vowel lowring, other harmony patterns (labial targeting coronal, labial targeting dorsal, coronal targeting dorsal), /s/-clusters, harmony targeting coronal, positional variation, syllable deletion, fricativization, final consonant deletion, reduplication, coda cluster simplification, and vowel raising. Late talkers employ velar fronting (41%), lateral substitution (40%), and cluster reduction (19%). The conclusion from this research is that late talkers employ 26 different processes and the process preferred by late talkers is changing velar consonants (k, g, ŋ) into alveolar consonants (t, d, s, z, n, l, r).

Abstract

This study investigates the use of nonverbal communication (NVC), namely gestures, in the narrative exercises of students at SMAN 1 Semaka. The objective is to determine and classify the precise types and frequencies of gestures used. The use of ELAN software allows for a thorough study, which shows that specific gestures, such as Open Hands (OP) and Head Tilting (HT), are commonly employed and have a substantial impact on improving the delivery of a narrative. On the other hand, gestures such as Hands on Hips (HH) and Hand on Cheek (HCH) were not frequently seen, indicating that their significance may vary depending on the situation and the individual's way of expressing a tale. This study highlights the significance of incorporating Nonviolent Communication (NVC) into educational methods in order to enhance students' proficiency in communication and storytelling. This study enhances our overall comprehension of nonverbal communication in educational environments and emphasises the usefulness of technological tools such as ELAN in furthering educational research.

Abstract

Effective pronunciation and vocabulary acquisition are essential in English language learning, particularly for non-native speakers. Drilling and word repetition techniques are widely regarded as effective strategies for enhancing linguistic skills. This study examines the implementation and perceived effectiveness of these techniques in improving pronunciation, vocabulary, and comprehension among eleventh-grade students at SMK Swadhipa 1 Natar, Lampung Province, Indonesia. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through a structured questionnaire comprising 25 questions, designed to assess students’ confidence, interest, and perceptions of the effectiveness of these methods. Out of 60 students, 29 participated, sharing valuable insights into their experiences and attitudes toward drilling and repetition techniques. The findings reveal that these methods are effective in improving pronunciation, grammatical understanding, and text comprehension. They also boost students’ confidence and interest by offering opportunities for repeated practice and corrective feedback. However, challenges such as pronunciation difficulties and a lack of confidence were reported, highlighting the need for adaptive and supportive teaching practices. This study underscores the importance of integrating repetitive learning approaches into English instruction to foster effective and engaging learning experiences.

Abstract

Education is a right for every individual. For students with mental disorders, teaching English poses a unique challenge that requires teachers to find effective teaching media for vocabulary instruction. This study aims to identify phonological errors of students with intelectual disabilities learning vocabulary and explore how to teach vocabulary to students with intelectual disabilities using flashcards the research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis, involving observation and auditory analysis to identify four voice recordings from students with different intelectual disabilities. The results reveal that students who experienced ADHD and communication disorder showed good engagement during the learning process, but encountered pronunciation errors. Meanwhile, students with autism and slow learning experienced difficulties in both participating in learning activities and pronunciation. These difficulties are caused by intelectual disabilities affecting their socialization abilities and leading to learning delays. Based on these findings, it can be said that the use of flashcards is effective as a vocabulary-learning medium for students with mild mental disorders. However, for students with more severe mental disorders, a more authentic approach is required. This is important for educators to understand students’ conditions in determining the appropriate teaching media.

Abstract

Vocabulary is a fundamental component of language proficiency and plays a crucial role in students’ ability to comprehend texts and communicate effectively. Effective vocabulary instruction requires the use of appropriate teaching strategies to support students in acquiring, retaining, and applying new words. The purpose of this study was to examine the strategies used by English teachers to teach vocabulary at SMK SWADHIPA 1 Natar, a vocational school in Lampung Province. A qualitative descriptive research design was used to explore instructional practices in depth. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with two English teachers. Observations focused on vocabulary teaching during classroom activities, while interviews were conducted to gain further insights into the rationale behind the instructional approaches used. The findings revealed that both teachers utilized similar strategies, notably the use of contextual learning and repetition and reinforcement techniques, to enhance students’ vocabulary acquisition. These strategies were found to be effective in promoting student engagement and supporting long-term retention of new vocabulary, as evidenced by active student participation and the consistent use of 75–80% of newly introduced words during observed lessons. Furthermore, post-lesson assessments indicated a vocabulary retention rate of 82% among students. The results suggest that incorporating contextualized vocabulary instruction and repeated practice into vocational English curricula can better equip students with the language needed for specific workplace communication tasks.
