Abstract

The essential ecosystem of mangroves Ujungpangkah (KEE MUP) is a protection and limited utilization area located on the coastal area in the north of Gresik Regency. This area has high biodiversity, especially various mangroves and waterbird species from different parts of the world due to their migration process. To protect this area, it is required to enhance the sensitivity of students as the young generation to react appropriately to keep the environment sustainable. In this case, education-based environmental studies (Ecological Education) is used as a sustainable approach to answering this challenge. Various activities of community services are structured through a strategic plan for ecological education implementation. With this Ecological Education, students can increase their sense of love for the environment to keep the KEE MUP conservation zone inherited sustainably

Abstract

In academic writing, cohesion plays a crucial role in creating clarity and flow. However, students often struggle to use cohesive devices effectively, which can impact the coherence of their writing. This study explores the use of grammatical cohesive devices in pros and cons essays written by students in the Marine Science study program to assess their effectiveness in conveying the writer’s intention. It aims to examine how these devices; references, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction are employed to convey the writers’ intended meaning. Moreover, this study also identifies the most frequently used types of grammatical cohesive devices. Using qualitative content analysis approach, the researchers analyzed 80 essays to identify the frequency and effectiveness of each cohesive device. The findings reveal that reference (62.50%) was the most frequently used device, followed by conjunction (34.38%), while substitution and ellipsis were rarely employed (1.56% each). These results indicate that students primarily rely on pronouns, pointer words, and conjunctions to link ideas and maintain the flow of their arguments. This study highlights the need for more structured instruction and additional support to help students improve their use of cohesive devices. The results also contribute to the development of cohesion theory, particularly in the context of student writing, and suggest future research directions. Further exploration of underutilized devices like substitution and ellipsis, as well as the use of cohesive devices in other text types, could enhance understanding of student writing and inform teaching strategies to promote stronger cohesion and clarity in student essays.

Abstract

Kemampuan literasi dan numerasi siswa SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Gresik tergolong rendah berdasarkan hasil asesmen internal dan survei PISA. Salah satu faktor penyebabnya adalah kurangnya kolaborasi antar-guru dalam pengembangan pembelajaran. Pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan kompetensi guru dalam merancang dan mengimplementasikan pembelajaran inovatif berbasis literasi-numerasi melalui Lesson Study for Learning Community (LSLC). Metode yang digunakan adalah Assest Based Community Development (5 tahap: Discovery, Dream, Design, Define, Destiny) dengan melibatkan 21 guru dan 184 siswa dari 4 jurusan di SMK mitra. Kegiatan Open Class dilaksanakan oleh 4(empat) guru model pada mata pelajaran matematika, kimia, Pendidikan Agama dan Budi Pekerti serta Dasar-dasar Program Keahlian. Hasil pelatihan dan pendampingan menunjukkan dampak utama berupa peningkatan keterampilan pedagogis guru serta penguatan budaya refleksi kolektif.  Guru berpartisipasi aktif menyusun perangkat ajar kolaboratif berbasis literasi dan numerasi serta menggunakan metode-metode pembelajaran inovatif. Selain itu, terbentuk komunitas belajar guru di SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Gresik. Program ini sejalan dengan kebijakan Merdeka Belajar dan mendukung Indikator Kinerja Utama (IKU) pendidikan tinggi serta berkontribusi aktif pada pengembangan pendidikan vokasi untuk generasi yang lebih baik.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of using WhatsApp as a tool for teaching English idiomatic expressions to pre-intermediate EAP students in the Non-English Department at the University of Muhammadiyah Gresik. From a pool of 250 students, 64 participants were selected based on their English proficiency using the Nelson Quick Check Placement Test and divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received idiom lessons and exercises through a WhatsApp group called Idiom Learning Group. They practiced 60 idioms outside the classroom, interacted with the researcher, and could make WhatsApp video calls for additional clarification. In contrast, the control group received the same lessons through traditional face-to-face instruction. The study was conducted over nine sessions. The first two sessions involved administering the placement test and a pre-test on idiomatic competence. The treatment phase spanned six sessions, during which the experimental group used WhatsApp for instruction and practice while the control group engaged in in-class learning. In the final session, both groups took a post-test to measure their improvement in idiomatic competence. Data analysis using paired samples and independent samples t-tests revealed a significant difference in post-test scores between the two groups, with the experimental group significantly outperforming the control group (p < .05). The findings demonstrate that teaching idioms through mobile technology, specifically WhatsApp, enhances idiomatic competence more effectively than traditional methods. This suggests that integrating mobile technology into language teaching can provide learners with flexible, interactive, and engaging opportunities for language practice, ultimately improving their learning outcomes.
