Abstract

One of the most crucial language skills for students to achieve is reading. Through their participation in this activity, students can improve their language skills and get experience. Using Google Classroom, this study attempted to examine EFL students' perceptions of reading comprehension. Because TBI (English Teaching Department) IAIN Madura is one of the universities that conducts online learning, it was chosen as the study's subject. This study used a sample of 26 students. Purposive sampling was used as a sample technique in this study. The results indicate that the students submitted useful and good responses. The results show that no student answered strongly disagree (SD), 3 students chose to disagree (11,5%), 16 students chose to agree (75%), and 6 students chose to strongly agree (23%). Google Classroom, it can be concluded, is a solution for online learning classes. As a result, Google Classroom can be used to collect student assignments and, more importantly, to help students improve their reading comprehension. Furthermore, if this application is effective, successful, and also assists students in assisting in e-learning, particularly in receiving feedback after completing the work assigned by the lecturer, it can be used in conjunction with Google Classroom as an e-learning solution for COVID-19.

Abstract

This study investigates identifying the most appropriate song rhythms to support ideal English language learning in the madrasah context, as viewed from students’ perspectives. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving four students from MTs NU Pakis as participants. Data were collected through classroom observations, questionnaires, and interviews, with data validity ensured through triangulation. The findings indicate that songs with slow to moderate tempo are preferred and perceived as more effective in facilitating listening comprehension, speaking skill, and boosting motivation in language learning. Students reported that such rhythm made it easier to grasp meaning, imitate pronunciation, and reduce anxiety during English lessons. Songs like “I have a dream” and “You raise me up” were found to create a motivating and supportive learning environment. Therefore, rhythm selection plays a significant role in enhancing language acquisition in madrasah-based EFL instruction. This study offers practical insights for EFL practitioners in selecting effective musical aids, emphasizing the critical link between musical rhythm and pedagogical outcomes in religious educational settings.
