Abstract

Abstract: Grammar is one of the most important elements of the English language. There is not a single word in English that does not involve grammar. In fact, a lot of English proficiency tests use grammar as one of the parts. Mastering grammar is as easy as mastering writing and speaking. This makes grammar has a big contribution in mastering English. The purpose of this research is to improve English Grammar skills through the implementation of a grammar game application in English classes in the digital era. This application contains grammar exercises and interactive training games and is very contemporary. The approach used in this study is a quantitative experimental method, employing a pretest-posttest control group design. The study involved two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The data analysis process is divided into two stages. The first stage involves analyzing the pretest and posttest data, while the second stage focuses on analyzing data from the questionnaire on the application's use. For the pretest and posttest data, a t-test is applied. Specifically, an independent t-test, which is a type of parametric test, is used to compare two independent groups. The analysis is based on two criteria: (1) if the significance value (2-tailed) is greater than 0.05, it indicates no significant difference between the groups; (2) if the significance value (2-tailed) is less than 0.05, it indicates a significant difference. The comparison of pretest and posttest scores between the experimental and control groups serves to address the research question about the effectiveness of the English Grammar Practice application in enhancing grammar skills. The results suggest that the application has a positive impact. Although the experimental group initially scored lower on the pretest than the control group, the posttest results showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group, demonstrating the effectiveness of the application in improving grammar proficiency.

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of English speaking anxiety and academic achievement among second-semester English Education students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Lampung. Despite the recognized importance of speaking skills in EFL contexts, many Indonesian students experience significant anxiety that potentially impacts their academic performance. This research used a quantitative approach. The data were collected from 13 students through the adapted Speech Anxiety Thoughts Inventory (SATI) and speaking assessments evaluated with Brown and Abeywickrama's (2019) rubric. The Pearson correlation analysis showed a strong negative relationship between speaking anxiety and academic achievement (r = -0.876, p = 0.001), with anxiety accounting for 76.7% of the variance in speaking scores. Qualitative analysis of questionnaire responses identified fear of negative evaluation, limited vocabulary, and lack of confidence as primary anxiety sources. While the strong correlation indicates a significant relationship, the study's limitations, including small sample size and correlational design, preclude causal inferences. The finding underscores the need for pedagogical interventions addressing affective factors in language learning and suggests directions for future research with larger samples and experimentally designed.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of the Socratic Seminar in improving students’ speaking skills and fostering critical thinking. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was employed, with a quasi-experimental approach as the primary quantitative component. The participants were 30 vocational high school students, comprising 15 students in the experimental group and 15 in the control group. Data were collected through speaking tests, questionnaires, interviews, and observations. The Socratic Seminar was implemented as the intervention in the experimental group, with CAR used as a reflective process during implementation. The paired-samples t-test showed a significant improvement in speaking performance, t(14) = 7.9553, p = 0.00000146 < 0.05. An independent-samples t-test showed a significant difference in post-test speaking performance between the experimental and control groups, t(28) = 2.97, p = .006, with a large effect size (Cohen’s d = 1.08). The mean score increased from 2.80 to 3.56, with a mean difference of 0.76 Qualitative findings indicated that the Socratic Seminar encouraged students to express ideas, provide reasons and evidence, engage in reflective dialogue, and participate actively in discussions. The findings demonstrate that the Socratic Seminar is an effective strategy for integrating speaking development and critical thinking within a deep learning-oriented context.

Abstract

This study investigates the development and initial effectiveness of a blended instructional strategy integrating Systemic Functional Linguistics and Genre-Based Pedagogy to enhance writing proficiency in higher education, particularly within the context of 21st-century literacy and Indonesia's Merdeka Curriculum. Addressing challenges highlighted by low national literacy proficiency, the research proposes an approach that fosters deep learning through meaningful, mindful, and joyful engagement. Utilizing a Research and Development design based on the 4D model, a writing instruction module was created and piloted with 15 English Literature students. Findings reveal that the SFL-GBP integration provides a robust theoretical and pedagogical foundation, offering a comprehensive framework for linguistic analysis and systematic genre-based teaching. The developed module demonstrated expert-validated validity, high student practicality (85% positive feedback), and moderate effectiveness, evidenced by an average N-Gain score of 0.45, with observed improvements in content development, organization, and language use. This blended strategy presents a promising alternative for writing instruction, advocating for its adoption by lecturers and active student engagement, while suggesting broader implementation and integration with digital platforms for future research.
