Abstract

As times change, the education curriculum in Indonesia has undergone many modifications, with the latest being the Kurikulum Merdeka. This curriculum is a government response aimed at addressing the decline in meaningful learning during the pre-pandemic, pandemic, and post-pandemic phases. This study aims to examine the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka in the English language subject at a private elementary school in Batam City. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach. Data collection was conducted through classroom observations and interviews with teachers. The results indicate that the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka at the school is not yet fully realized, particularly in terms of applying student-centered learning. On the first day, teaching methods were still predominantly teacher-centered, although there was an increase in interaction between students and teachers on the second day. Additionally, this study found that teachers hold a positive view of the curriculum but face several challenges, such as inadequate facilities and resources, as well as difficulties in student adaptation. This study suggests the need for adequate teacher training and the provision of supportive facilities to enhance the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka. Furthermore, further research is needed to explore specific strategies to address these challenges and improve student learning outcomes. By gaining a deeper understanding of the challenges and factors affecting the implementation of this curriculum, it is hoped that targeted intervention strategies can be developed to improve the quality of education in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research investigates the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into 21st-century English language learning, with a focus on understanding student perceptions and expectations. Conducted in collaboration with a public high school in Batam City, the study aims to explore teachers' perspectives on ICT in English Language Teaching (ELT), identify student needs for technology-based instructional materials, and propose strategies to enhance digital literacy for English learners. Through classroom observations and student surveys, the study reveals a generally positive attitude towards English learning and ICT integration among students, alongside areas for improvement in enhancing collaborative learning experiences. Despite teachers' readiness to implement e-learning, there's a perceived lack of sufficient ICT support in EFL classes. Interviews with Grade 11 students underscore the efficacy and enjoyment of online resources, with a desire for more innovative technology-based learning methods. Collaboration with University International Batam offers potential for implementing such methods, though logistical challenges remain. The findings reveal the importance of addressing gaps in ICT integration to optimize English language learning experiences for students.

Abstract

The problem addressed by this research is the need for engaging and effective methods to enhance grammar learning among primary students. The research aims of this study were to investigate the feasibility of using Kahoot! as a tool to improve grammar classrooms, especially for young learners, in the only English course that uses books published by the Cambridge University Press. Six elementary students at the A2 level of English participated in one of English course choosen as subject. The data collection methods included pre-tests, post-tests, and semi-structured interviews. Researchers implemented Kahoot! four times during the study. The CAR was carried out in one cycle, as the results from this cycle were deemed sufficient. The instruments used for data collection were pre-tests, post-tests, and semi-structured interviews with the teacher. Data analysis involved comparing pre-test and post-test results to measure improvement and transcribing interview responses to gather qualitative insights. The main results revealed a significant improvement in students' grammar performance. The average score increased from a "poor" category in the pre-test to an average of 93 in the post-test, which falls under the "very good" category.The conclusion drawn from the study is that the use of Kahoot! has a positive impact on young learners' grammar learning and behavior. The implications of this research suggest that future studies should explore modifications of this approach to other different language skills to further enhance student learning outcomes.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menyelidiki keakuratan dan keefektifan penggunaan kerangka cerita dalam sebuah uji pilot yang akan diimplementasikan pada penelitian-penelitian selanjutnya. Dengan menggunakan Metode Cerita Berbasis Empati (MEBS), enam partisipan berpartisipasi dalam merangkai kerangka cerita positif dan negative melalui Google Forms. Penulis menggunakan metode observasi untuk menilai efektivitas kerangka cerita. Penulis juga menyertakan hasil penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya dan mencari validasi profesional untuk meningkatkan keandalan penelitian. Temuan penelitian ini menyoroti beberapa faktor yang perlu dipertimbangkan ketika mengintegrasikan kerangka cerita ke dalam penelitian MEBS di masa depan. Penelitian in mengungkapkan bahwa integrasi MEBS yang efektif dalam penelitian di masa depan membutuhkan pelaksanaan uji pilot untuk memastikan pengembangan kerangka cerita yang dirancang dengan baik. Selain itu, penyediaan lembar persetujuan penelitian terbukti secara signifikan meningkatkan otonomi partisipan untuk terlibat dalam kerangka cerita. Sementara itu, penggunaan instruksi dan kebebasan untuk menulis kerangka cerita dalam bahasa pertama, bersamaan dengan penjelasan berbasis video berdurasi 5 menit terbukti meningkatkan pemahaman dan keterlibatan partisipan dalam menulis bingkai cerita. Penelitian ini menyarankan untuk mendiversifikasi metode pengumpulan data selain Google Formulir, termasuk email dan media sosial, untuk memastikan temuan hasil penelitian dapat diterapkan di berbagai konteks.AsbtractThis study investigated the accuracy and effectiveness of employing frame stories in a pilot study to be implemented in future studies. Employing the Method of Empathy-based Stories (MEBS), six participants participated in constructing positive and negative frame stories through Google Forms. The writers used the observation method to assess the effectiveness of frame stories. The writers also included the results of previous studies and sought professional validation to enhance the study's reliability. The study's findings highlighted several factors that needed to be taken into account when integrating frame stories into future MEBS research. The study reveals that the effective integration of MEBS in future research requires the conduction of pilot studies to ensure the development of well-designed frame stories. Providing informed consent was found to significantly boost participants' autonomy in engaging with the frame story. Additionally, the use of instruction and freedom to write frame stories in first language, alongside with 5-minute video-based explanations was shown to enhance participants understanding and engagement in writing the frame stories. The study suggests diversifying data collection methods beyond Google Forms, including email and social media, to ensure the findings are applicable across diverse contexts.
