Abstract

This research aims to improve students' writing skills. Some students consider writing skills in English to be difficult, boring and unpleasant. Because a teacher's learning model tends to be monotonous and lacking in teaching media. Many students are familiar with smartphones, and some even use them to study. Therefore, by using smartphones teachers and students can access several applications for learning such as quiz applications which have been proven to be effective in learning English. Quizizz is a form of digital instrument that requires all your students to start practicing together in class using technological tools such as computers, iPads, tablets, or smartphones, resulting in fun training for students. This research is a quantitative research using the Pre-Experimental design method using one group pretest-posttest to see the improvement in students' writing skills using media in the form of quizzes. This research was conducted in class XI MIPA MA Al- Mu'tadil. The sample was determined by total sampling technique and the number of samples was 10 people. To assist in data processing and prevent errors in data analysis, researchers used SPSS version 22 to analyze data based on data. From the results of the analysis based on the results of the Paired Sample t Test, the 2- tailed significance value of 0.000 is less than 0.005, indicating a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test with an average value of -38.00000. This shows that there is a significant effect on the difference in the treatment given to each variable.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate a teacher's instructional strategies in reading instruction using short stories and to analyze the multi-dimensional reading difficulties encountered by ninth-grade students in a rural EFL context. Utilizing a qualitative case study design integrated with phenomenological perspectives and educational ethnography, data were gathered from an English teacher and 25 ninth-grade students at MTs Sayyid Ali Geger Bangkalan. Data collection was executed through triangulation involving non-participant classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation of reading assessment worksheets, which were subsequently processed using the interactive qualitative analysis model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. The findings reveal that the teacher operationalized short stories through a systematic process-oriented framework spanning pre-reading, while-reading, and post-reading stages. The strategic shift from a text-only approach to an illustrated, tool-supported methodology successfully lowered the students' affective filters and enhanced predictive understanding. Concurrently, the analysis of student challenges identified three core dimensions of reading difficulties: psychological and affective barriers (manifested as public speaking phobia and intense performance anxiety), linguistic and lexical hurdles (characterized by an extreme vocabulary deficit, past tense verb confusion, and rigid polysemous interpretation), and phonological friction (stemming from rigid first-language orthographic transfer). The study concludes that while short stories serve as a potent alternative medium to stimulate textual interest, their efficacy remains strictly dependent on targeted scaffolding, visual materials, and systematic structural reinforcement to foster independent, sustainable literacy development among struggling foreign language learners.
