Abstract

Based on observations made in one of many existing senior high specialized government schools specifically in SMAN 20 Batam where English is a compulsory subject, the writer found that speaking motivation and confidence is still lacking, as well as a lack of technology exploration. By combining technology and face-to-face instruction, the method of blended learning (BL) used in this study utilizes Classroom Action Research (CAR) method. In addition to the pre-test and scoring rubric of the CAR cycle, Live Worksheet is provided as a breakthrough to solve the shortcoming by executing the online interactive platform as a post-test (final evaluation). As a result, of the Live Worksheet implementation of the blended learning CAR method, 90% of students of a representative 10th senior grade class have increased their speaking motivation and confidence, with 3 out of 5 speaking skill elements such as grammar structures, fluency, and pronunciation showing improvement skyrocketed to 80 points, contrast to the low pre-test result of 60 points for each element.

Abstract

The implementation of a community service program by lecturers from Batam Tourism Polytechnic in the Ecotourism Village of Pandang Tak Jemu aims to enhance the basic English communication skills of prospective tour guides. This initiative addresses pressing needs identified in the field, including limited vocabulary mastery, low self-confidence, and a lack of practical training. Utilizing a cooperative learning approach combined with the use of realia (authentic physical objects), the training program was designed to be interactive and contextual, incorporating activities such as role-plays, group discussions, and on-site practice within the tourist environment. The outcomes of the program demonstrated a significant improvement in participants’ speaking abilities, particularly in welcoming and providing information to foreign visitors. Beyond individual capacity building, the program also contributes to strengthening the role of the local community in community-based tourism development. Furthermore, the program exhibits potential for sustainability due to its use of relevant and easily replicable methods and learning resources that the community can independently adopt.
