Abstract

This study investigated the use of mind mapping as a strategy for improving the writing skills of eleventh-grade students at MAS YasPen Nurul Huda Serapu. This study focused on 24 students who struggled to organize their ideas and effectively communicate them in written English. To measure the impact of mind mapping on students' writing abilities, the study used a combination of observation, instructor interviews, and several exams across three cycles. The first data in Cycle I revealed that students had a low average GPA of 57.66, indicating a substantial need for intervention. Students' average scores rose gradually as they used mind mapping, reaching 65.50 in Cycle II and 80.50 in Cycle III, surpassing the KKM standard of 72. The findings demonstrated that mind mapping effectively helps students organize their thoughts and improve their writing skills. This research highlights the potential of innovative teaching methods like mind mapping in enhancing educational outcomes and suggests further integration of such techniques in the curriculum to support student learning.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat penguasaan tata bahasa Inggris oleh mahasiswa program studi Nautika dalam konteks komunikasi keselamatan pelayaran. Fokus kajian diarahkan pada dua kelas mahasiswa semester II di Politeknik Pelayaran Malahayati. Penguasaan tata bahasa yang baik sangat penting dalam komunikasi maritim, terutama saat menggunakan Standard Marine Communication Phrases (SMCP) yang menuntut kejelasan, ketepatan, dan keseragaman dalam situasi darurat maupun operasional. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kuantitatif dengan instrumen berupa tes kemampuan tata bahasa dalam konteks keselamatan pelayaran serta wawancara terstruktur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar mahasiswa masih mengalami kesulitan dalam penggunaan struktur tata bahasa yang tepat, khususnya dalam bentuk imperatif, kalimat perintah, dan pola tanya yang berkaitan dengan situasi darurat. Faktor penyebab antara lain adalah kurangnya praktik berbahasa dalam konteks nyata serta pemahaman yang terbatas terhadap terminologi maritim berbahasa Inggris. Temuan ini menunjukkan pentingnya integrasi pembelajaran tata bahasa yang kontekstual dengan situasi keselamatan di laut guna meningkatkan kesiapan komunikasi profesional para calon pelaut.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the English vocabulary learning strategies used by undergraduate science education students and the challenges they face. A total of 53 students from various science education programs participated in the study. Using a descriptive quantitative and qualitative approach, data were collected through a questionnaire by Likert-scale items and open-ended questions. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while the qualitative responses were examined through content analysis to identify recurring themes. The results showed that students most frequently used digital tools, particularly using Google Scholar, Wikipedia, or search engines to find word meanings and usage (mean score = 3.53; 70.6%), followed by rewriting new words (3.21; 64.2%) and verbal repetition (3.09; 61.8%). However, 41.5% of students reported that they rarely read scientific texts in English, and 22.6% said they very rarely do so. Common challenges identified included the complexity and unfamiliarity of scientific terms, difficulty in memorization, low motivation, and limited opportunities for practice and exposure. It is recommended that science education programs provide more structured exposure to English texts, apply contextual vocabulary teaching, and encourage the use of digital tools and collaborative learning.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of storytelling as an instructional strategy for improving students’ reading comprehension. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 32 students divided into a control group (n=14) and an experimental group (n=18). The control group was taught using conventional methods, while the experimental group received a storytelling-based intervention. Pre-test and post-test scores were analyzed to measure the impact of the teaching methods.The results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group’s reading comprehension. The mean score for the experimental group increased from 64.89 in the pre-test to 78.22 in the post-test, while the control group’s mean score only increased from 65.21 to 68.57. A paired t-test revealed that the experimental group’s improvement was statistically significant (t=6.72, p<0.01), whereas the control group’s improvement was not (t=1.85, p>0.05). An independent t-test comparing the post-test scores of the two groups confirmed a significant difference (t=4.29, p<0.01), with the experimental group outperforming the control group. The effect size (Cohen’s d=1.12) indicated a large impact of the storytelling intervention. These findings highlighted storytelling’s potential to enhance students’ reading comprehension by fostering engagement and deeper understanding of the material. The study underscores the importance of integrating innovative teaching strategies, such as storytelling, into educational practices to improve learning outcomes. Further research is recommended to explore its application across different subjects and educational levels. Keywords : storytelling, teaching strategy, reading comprehension

Abstract

Students’ limited interest in reading English texts is often associated with low levels of reading comprehension. This study aimed to improve students’ reading comprehension through the implementation of the Index Card Match strategy in an English classroom. The research adopted a classroom action research design based on the Kemmis and McTaggart model, consisting of two cycles, each comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through observation sheets, field notes, interviews, reading comprehension tests, and student questionnaires. The quantitative findings demonstrated a progressive improvement in students’ reading comprehension across the research cycles. The proportion of students meeting the predetermined achievement criteria increased from 44% in the pre-test to 70% in Cycle I and further to 91% in Cycle II. Qualitative data supported these results, indicating increased student engagement, enjoyment, and motivation during reading activities. The findings suggest that the Index Card Match strategy is effective in enhancing students’ reading comprehension and creating a more interactive learning environment. Therefore, it is recommended that English teachers consider integrating this strategy into reading instruction, while future studies may explore its application in different educational contexts or through alternative research designs.

Abstract

Effective communication is a fundamental requirement in maritime operations, where clarity and accuracy are essential to ensuring safety at sea. One key element supporting this objective is the Maritime Alphabet, also known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, which standardizes oral communication among seafarers from diverse linguistic backgrounds. This literature review examines the role of the Maritime Alphabet in English language learning within maritime education contexts. The review analyzes 20 selected sources, including peer-reviewed journal articles, International Maritime Organization (IMO) conventions and guidelines, and Maritime English textbooks published between 2015 and 2024, drawing on pedagogical frameworks in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and Maritime English. The findings indicate that integrating the Maritime Alphabet into Maritime English instruction enhances pronunciation accuracy, listening comprehension, and learners’ confidence in oral communication. Furthermore, its integration with the Standard Marine Communication Phrases (SMCP) supports the development of professional communicative competence required by international maritime standards. The literature also highlights that simulation-based, task-oriented, and blended learning approaches significantly improve cadets’ engagement and practical communication performance. Despite these benefits, challenges remain, including persistent pronunciation difficulties among non-native speakers, limited exposure to authentic communication contexts, and insufficient instructional resources. Overall, this review underscores the Maritime Alphabet as a core component of Maritime English pedagogy, contributing to the development of standardized communicative competence essential for safety and professionalism in maritime education.
