Abstract This study aims to analyze the effect of debate techniques on the speaking skills of grade XI students at SMA Al- Washliyah Medan in the 2022/2023 academic year. Speaking skills are an important aspect in involving grade XI students as samples. The results showed that the use of debate techniques significantly improved students' speaking ability. The average pre-test score of the experimental group was 61.32, while the average post-test score increased to 74.73, with English learning, and debate techniques identified as an effective method to improve this ability, especially in vocabulary and pronunciation aspects. This study used a pre-test and post-test experimental design, with an increase of 22%. The t- test results also showed a higher value than the t-table (68.09> 2.023), indicating a significant difference before and after treatment. The conclusion of this study is that the debate technique provides a positive contribution to improving alternative skills in teaching English speaking to create a speaking environment for students. It is recommended that teachers consider using this technique as a more interactive and dynamic learning. Because the debate technique not only improves students' speaking skills, but also motivates them to think critically and be more confident in delivering arguments.

This study aims to analyze the listening skills of students at STIKES Columbia Asia Medan and identify the factors that influence their listening comprehension. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through an IELTS-format listening test provided by the British Council and semi-structured interviews. The results showed that 45% of students achieved an “Excellent” level, 25% were categorized as “Very Good,” 10% as “Good,” and 20% as “Fair,” with no students falling into the “Failed” category. The qualitative findings revealed several key factors affecting listening performance, including limited vocabulary, difficulties in understanding foreign accents, lack of concentration, minimal exposure to authentic English, unfamiliarity with test formats, and psychological aspects such as anxiety. The study concludes that British Council listening materials can effectively support listening skill development, but they must be complemented by comprehensive teaching strategies and consistent practice.

Pendidikan karakter merupakan salah satu komponen utama dalam sistem pendidikan nasional yang bertujuan untuk membentuk peserta didik yang tidak hanya cerdas secara intelektual, tetapi juga memiliki integritas moral, etika, dan kepribadian yang baik. Di tengah tantangan degradasi moral, penyimpangan perilaku, dan krisis identitas yang semakin marak pada anak usia sekolah dasar, kegiatan ekstrakurikuler hadir sebagai sarana strategis untuk menanamkan nilai-nilai karakter secara kontekstual dan aplikatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran kegiatan ekstrakurikuler dalam membentuk karakter siswa sekolah dasar, mengidentifikasi nilai-nilai karakter yang dikembangkan, serta mengevaluasi faktor-faktor pendukung dan penghambat dalam implementasinya. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi langsung terhadap kegiatan ekstrakurikuler, wawancara mendalam dengan guru pembina, kepala sekolah, siswa, dan orang tua, serta studi dokumentasi terhadap perencanaan dan laporan kegiatan sekolah. Subjek penelitian adalah siswa kelas IV hingga VI dari lima sekolah dasar di wilayah urban dan rural yang memiliki program ekstrakurikuler aktif dan beragam. Analisis data dilakukan secara induktif dengan cara reduksi data, kategorisasi tematik, dan penarikan kesimpulan.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan ekstrakurikuler secara signifikan mampu mengembangkan nilai-nilai karakter seperti tanggung jawab, kedisiplinan, kerja sama, kejujuran, kepedulian sosial, dan semangat kebangsaan. Kegiatan seperti pramuka, olahraga, seni budaya, dan kerohanian memberikan ruang nyata bagi siswa untuk belajar melalui pengalaman langsung, berinteraksi dengan teman sebaya, dan menghadapi tantangan secara aktif. Guru pembina yang berperan sebagai teladan moral, dukungan manajemen sekolah, serta partisipasi orang tua berkontribusi besar dalam keberhasilan kegiatan ini.Namun demikian, terdapat berbagai hambatan dalam pelaksanaan pendidikan karakter melalui ekstrakurikuler, seperti kurangnya alokasi waktu, keterbatasan sumber daya manusia yang terlatih dalam pembinaan karakter, belum adanya integrasi sistem evaluasi karakter yang sistematis, serta kurangnya pemahaman stakeholder terhadap pentingnya karakter dalam kegiatan non-akademik. Untuk mengatasi hal ini, diperlukan kebijakan sekolah yang integratif, pelatihan kompetensi guru pembina, serta pelibatan komunitas dan orang tua dalam perencanaan dan evaluasi kegiatan ekstrakurikuler. Implikasi dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ekstrakurikuler tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai pelengkap kegiatan belajar mengajar, tetapi harus menjadi bagian integral dari kurikulum berbasis karakter. Sekolah dasar perlu merancang program ekstrakurikuler yang berorientasi pada pembentukan profil pelajar Pancasila yang mencerminkan nilai-nilai religius, nasionalis, mandiri, gotong royong, bernalar kritis, dan kreatif. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi konseptual dan praktis bagi pengembangan kebijakan pendidikan karakter di tingkat sekolah dasar.

This qualitative study looks at how English teachers use code switching in the classroom, focusing on its types, functions, and how it affects teaching in an Indonesian EFL setting. The study took place at a junior high school in Medan and included classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with a small number of English teachers. The results showed that code switching is Often used as a strategic teaching tool to help students understand better, control classroom interactions, and give emotional support. Teachers often switched codes between sentences and within sentences, mostly going from English to Bahasa Indonesia. The study found that code switching has a number of teaching uses, such as helping students understand concepts, translating vocabulary, and keeping students interested. Teachers thought code switching was a good thing because it helped people with different languages talk to each other in a meaningful way. But there were worries that people might rely too much on their first language, which could make it harder for them to learn English. The study's conclusion is that code switching can help teachers do their jobs well in EFL classrooms if they use it wisely. It suggests that teachers come up with clear plans for using code switching and that more research be done on how students feel about it and how it affects their learning.

This study explores how English teachers in an Indonesian MGMP (Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran) community perceive and integrate Kahoot in EFL classrooms. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected from six teachers through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results show that teachers use Kahoot for various pedagogical purposes, including vocabulary review, grammar reinforcement, and formative assessment. Teachers also employed different integration strategies, using Kahoot as warm-ups, comprehension checks, and review activities. Despite challenges such as limited internet access, lack of devices, and time constraints, teachers observed significant improvements in student motivation, participation, and confidence. The study highlights the role of professional collaboration within MGMP in supporting technology use, and the importance of teacher agency in adapting digital tools to meet classroom needs. The findings suggest that teacher-mediated gamification through Kahoot can enhance both engagement and learning outcomes in EFL contexts, particularly when supported by reflective teaching practices and local collaboration.

Improving the quality of English learning in high schools is an ongoing priority to produce graduates with strong moral character and linguistic competence. This study aimed to develop English teaching materials based on advice poetry and evaluate their effectiveness in enhancing students’ moral character and English language skills. The research employed the Research and Development (R&D) model proposed by Borg & Gall, encompassing preliminary studies, material design, and evaluation phases. The sample consisted of 120 high school students, selected through purposive sampling, who participated in the intervention. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test to measure the statistical significance of learning outcomes before and after the implementation of the developed materials. The findings indicate that the developed teaching materials align with students’ needs, adhere to curriculum standards, and meet criteria for readability, clarity, and graphical presentation. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant improvement in students' learning outcomes, with average scores increasing from 65.4 (pre-test) to 82.7 (post-test) (p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 1.2), indicating a large effect size. Additionally, qualitative feedback showed that students were highly enthusiastic about the learning process, citing increased engagement and understanding of moral values embedded in the advice poetry. This study concludes that (1) the developed teaching materials are effective in improving both moral character and English language competence, and (2) students show positive attitudes toward poetry-based learning. The study recommends that educators incorporate advice poetry into English teaching materials to foster holistic student development. Future research could explore other literary genres or expand the sample size to generalize findings across diverse educational contexts.
