Abstract

This study was undertaken to highlight the best English teaching method in Katsina state secondary schools by comparing communicative method (CLT) against traditional method (GTM)  to ascertain the best approach for teaching Grammar, vocabulary, written composition, oral composition, and oral English. The study population comprised all 2023/2024 SS2 students of public secondary schools in Katsina State. It deploys experimental design which involved gathering quantitative data from the students’ post-tests to assess their mastery of these language skills. In order to analyze the collected data, the researchers utilized the SPSS (IBM Statistical Processor Version 25) for precise and efficient processing, generating various necessary outputs to draw meaningful conclusions. Based on the findings, with the exception of teaching grammar which revealed no significant difference as the p-value was.003 which is below .05, CLT proved to be more impactful compared to traditional method in teaching the other four subjects. To this end, the researchers recommend the full implementation of CLT method at Senior Secondary Schools in Katsina State. Similarly, it is suggested that CLT and GTM should be blended in teaching grammar in order to help students to learn the grammatical structures of English and use them in a meaningful and engaging way.

Abstract

Matematika sangat penting untuk menumbuhkembangkan kemampuan berpikir siswa serta menanamkan pendidikan karakter pada diri siswa sehingga dengan kemampuan itu diharapkan peserta didik mampu bertahan hidup dalam keadaan yang tidak pasti dan kompetitif. Namun sampai saat ini sebagian besar siswa tidak menyukai dan bahkan benci dengan matematika karena mereka merasa matematika adalah sesuatu yang membosankan dan menakutkan. terdapat bukti dengan masalah umum matematika seperti rendahnya rata-rata NEM nasional, rendahnya daya saing di ajang internasional serta rendahnya minat belajar matematika. Banyak upaya-upaya yang telah dilakukan oleh pakar pendidikan matematika di Indonesia bahkan di negara-negara maju pun melakukan banyak inovasi-inovasi pendidikan khususnya pada matematika. Indonesia sendiri tengah dipopulerkan Pembelajaran Matematika Realistik Indonesia atau disingkat PMRI. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode penelitian kualitatif yang akan menghasilkan data deskriptif berupa kata-kata tertulis atau lisan dari subjek yang diamati. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah dengan menggunakan metode observasi, metode angket, metode wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian ini bahwa Perkembangan PMRI di Jawa Barat khususnya Bandung Barat belum berkembang maksimal sesuai yang diharapkan pada saat pertama kali PMRI dikenalkan di Indonesia. Hal ini dapat dilihat hanya beberapa yang menerapkan PMRI itu sendiri di sekolah. Pada saat sekarang ini LPTK-LPTK sudah mulai jarang mengadakan pelatihan/workshop, seminar dan juga penelitian yang bertemakan PMRI. Kemudian ditunjang juga bahwa kurang adanya dukungan dari pemerintah mengenai PMRI. Sehingga, PMRI dalam perkembangannya belum menyebar secara menyeluruh di Bandung Raya.
