Abstract

Pronunciation is an important aspect of English learning, especially at the elementary school level. However, many students experience difficulties in pronouncing vocabulary due to monotonous teaching methods and minimal phonological stimulation. This study aims to test the effectiveness of using the Hokey Pokey song in improving elementary school students' pronunciation skills. This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design of one-group pretest-posttest. The study sample consisted of 24 fourth-grade students who were given treatment in the form of learning using the Hokey Pokey song for four meetings. The research instrument was a pronunciation test before and after the treatment. Data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test. The results show an increase in the average pronunciation score from 63.75 in the pretest to 79.58 in the posttest, with a difference of 15.83 points. The t-test results show a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), which indicates that the use of the Hokey Pokey song has a significant effect on improving students’ pronunciation skills. Song-based learning not only provides repetitive and rhythmic phonological practice but also creates a pleasant learning atmosphere, reduces psychological barriers, and increases students’ active participation. Thus, children’s songs like Hokey Pokey can be used as an alternative, effective pronunciation learning medium, adapting to students' learning styles, and promoting more comprehensive English language skills. These findings are relevant for application in thematic learning contexts and multilingual literacy-based curricula at the elementary level.

Pembelajaran jarak jauh menjadi alternatif pelaksanaan pembelajaran ditengah pandemi coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Pelaksanaan pembelajaran secara daring tentunya akan berdampak pada keefektifan dari capaian pembelajaran itu sendiri. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui keefektifan pembelajaran jarak jauh bagi siswa kelas X jurusan Otomatisasi dan Tata Kelola Perkantoran (OTKP) pada mata pelajaran korespondensi di SMKN 2 Blitar berdasarkan 4 indikator keefektifan pembelajaran, yakni mutu pengajaran, tingkat pengajaran yang tepat, insentif dan waktu. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian survey dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Teknik pengambilan sampel dipilih berdasarkan teknik probability sampling jenis simple random sampling dengan jumlah responden sebesar 106 siswa/i. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Teknik analisis data menggunakan teknik analisis kuantitatif dan deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan pembelajaran jarak jauh bagi siswa berjalan efektif, hal ini terbukti dari perolehan hasil rata-rata sebesar 70.4% yang berada pada kategori efektif. Indikator mutu pengajaran kategori efektif (70.4%), tingkat pengajaran kategori efektif (76.1%), insentif kategori efektif (67.1%) dan indikator waktu kategori efektif (65.4%). Hasil penelitian ini dapat memberikan informasi berbasis data bagi pihak sekolah terkait pelaksanaan pembelajaran jarak jauh yang telah dilaksanakan. Sehingga dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu bahan evaluasi dalam menyusun kebijakan yang tepat untuk menciptakan pembelajaran daring yang efektif serta dapat dijadikan bahan kajian peneliti lain. The Effectiveness of Distance Learning for Students in Correspondence Subjects Distance learning was an alternative for learning in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The implementation of online learning would certainly have an impact on the effectiveness of the learning outcomes themselves. The implementation of online learning would certainly have an impact on the effectiveness of the learning outcomes themselves. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of distance learning for class X students majoring in Office Automation and Management (OTKP) in correspondence subjects at SMKN 2 Blitar based on 4 indicators of learning effectiveness, namely teaching quality, appropriate teaching levels, incentives, and time. This research was survey research with a quantitative approach. The sampling technique was chosen based on probability sampling technique, simple random sampling, with a sample size of 106 students. Data collection techniques using questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis technique used quantitative and descriptive analysis techniques. The results showed that the implementation of distance learning for class X students was effective. This is evidenced by the average result of 70.4% which is in the effective category. Teaching quality indicators are effective category (70.4%), effective category teaching rate (76.1%), effective category incentives (67.1%) and time indicators are effective categories (65.4%). Results of this study can provide data-based information for school regarding the implementation of distance learning correspondence has been implemented, can be used as an evaluation material in formulating the right policies to create learning online effectively and can be used as study material for other researchers.

Abstract

The geographical conditions of an area have a significant influence on the social, economic, and environmental life of the local community. This study aims to analyze the impact of geographical conditions on these aspects in Klaces Village, Kampung Laut District, Cilacap Regency, using qualitative methods. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with the community and stakeholders, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that the geographical conditions of Klaces Village, which are dominated by coastal and swamp areas, cause scattered settlement patterns and limited accessibility, which affect social interaction and access to public services. From an economic perspective, the community relies on the fisheries sector, wetland agriculture, and water transportation as their main sources of livelihood, but limited infrastructure and environmental changes are major challenges in economic sustainability. From an environmental aspect, this village faces problems such as abrasion, tidal flooding, and ecosystem changes that have an impact on the sustainability of natural resources. This study concludes that geographical conditions play an important role in shaping the social, economic, and environmental dynamics in Klaces Village. Therefore, adaptive and sustainable development policies are needed to improve community welfare and maintain ecosystem balance.

Abstract

In the digital age, educational technology plays a critical role in enhancing students' learning experiences, particularly in the domain of reading comprehension. This study aims to determine the extent to which an artificial intelligence (AI)-based reading platform can enhance the reading comprehension skills of sixth-grade students at the Elementary School of 2 Waluyorejo, Kebumen. A quasi-experimental design was employed, wherein a single group of 25 students was administered a pre-test and post-test. Over a period of 4 weeks, students engaged in reading practice activities using the AI platform, which provided leveled reading materials, comprehension exercises, and automated feedback. The results, analyzed through paired-samples t-tests, revealed a significant improvement in reading scores, with an average increase of 14.2 points and a p-value < 0.001. The large effect size (Cohen’s d = 2.86) underscores the substantial impact of AI use on students' literacy development. These findings suggest that AI technology offers an effective, personalized approach to enhancing reading comprehension skills in elementary school students
