Abstract

This descriptive research aimed to assess the reading comprehension abilities of students regarding narrative texts at SMAN 2 VII Koto Sungai Sariak of Padang Pariaman regency. The study utilized stratified cluster random sampling to select a sample of 60 students and collected data through a reading test.  The study revealed that the students' overall ability to read narrative texts was low. Specifically, 65% of the students struggled to comprehend narrative texts. Within the narrative text components, 51% of students had difficulty understanding the orientation, 63% had trouble with the complication, 55% struggled with the resolution, and 67% found the reorientation challenging. Despite these difficulties, the study highlighted issues with students' learning motivation and the effectiveness of teaching strategies within the context of the current curriculum implementation, Kurikulum Merdeka. Based on these findings, the study recommends that English teachers should review and possibly revise the narrative text lesson materials and teaching strategies to make them more engaging and motivational for students. This is crucial for the successful implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka, with the teacher profile of Guru Penggerak being a key factor in developing students' character and reading skills in English. Additionally, the study suggests focusing on vocabulary development to facilitate better comprehension of English texts. Future research should investigate the underlying causes of students' difficulties with reading narrative texts to develop more effective interventions.

Abstract

Studi ini meneliti hubungan antara kemampuan tata bahasa dan kinerja berbicara di antara siswa kelas dua di sekolah menengah atas SMAN 2 Koto Baru, yang dimotivasi oleh pengamatan bahwa banyak siswa mengalami kesulitan dalam komunikasi lisan meskipun telah bertahun-tahun belajar bahasa Inggris. Dengan menggunakan desain penelitian korelasional, data dikumpulkan dari 30 siswa menggunakan tes tata bahasa pilihan ganda dan penilaian kinerja berbicara. Indeks reliabilitas tes tersebut masing-masing adalah 0,85 dan 0,97. Analisis data mengungkapkan korelasi positif yang signifikan secara statistik (r = 0,65), melebihi nilai r kritis 0,361 pada tingkat 0,05 (df = 28). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa siswa dengan kemahiran tata bahasa yang lebih kuat cenderung memiliki kinerja yang lebih baik dalam tugas berbicara. Namun, tingkat keterampilan yang sedang juga dapat menunjukkan pengaruh faktor instruksional seperti praktik komunikasi yang terbatas, kecemasan, dan lingkungan belajar yang berpusat pada guru. Studi ini menyoroti perlunya pendekatan yang terintegrasi, komunikatif, dan kaya umpan balik terhadap pengajaran tata bahasa dan berbicara di kelas bahasa Inggris dalam konteks yang serupa dengan studi ini.

Abstract

This descriptive research aimed to identify the writing skills of students engaged in the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) collaborative learning during English classroom activities. The study focused on 32 students from the Fashion 4 Department at SMKN 3 Payakumbuh Vocational High School, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a set of writing tests, where students collaboratively wrote personal letters being involved in the TPS, and a set of questionnaires to gather feedback from both students and the teacher regarding the implementation of the TPS. The results revealed that students demonstrated strong writing skills in various aspects of personal letter writing, including generic structures, vocabulary usage, grammar, and mechanics. According to the school's Criteria of Learning Mastery (KKM), the students' writing skills were classified as above average, with scores ranging from 75.5 to 94, indicating the effectiveness of the TPS collaborative activities in enhancing writing skills. Based on these findings, several recommendations are proposed for teachers, students, and future researchers. Teachers should continue to facilitate and oversee the use of TPS in writing instruction. Students are encouraged to practice letter-writing extensively, particularly focusing on improving their paragraph writing skills. Future researchers should explore the challenges students face in organizing paragraphs while writing various types of letters.
