Abstract

Listening comprehension involves understanding spoken language in real time, yet it is often underemphasized in classrooms. This study examined the effectiveness of the Dictogloss technique in teaching listening comprehension among 25 tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 2 Selakau in the 2024/2025 academic year. Using a one-group pre-test and post-test design over four sessions, data were collected through listening tests based on dialogue texts. Results showed an improvement in listening for details, with mean scores rising from 50 to 65.6 (a 31.2% increase). However, accuracy of answers declined from 44 to 36 (an 18.18% decrease). Overall, the average score increased from 47 to 50.8. Despite these changes, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test indicated no statistically significant effect (p = 0.153), and the small effect size (Cohen’s d = 0.271) suggested the Dictogloss technique had a limited impact.

Abstract

The implementation of Merdeka Curriculum within Deep Learning Approach play a significant role in shaping the quality of students’ learning experiences, particularly in developing 21st-century skills such as collaborative thinking. This study aims to investigate the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum with Deep Learning Approach on students’ collaborative thinking at SMA Negeri 01 Sungai Pinyuh. A qualitative case study design was employed in this research. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with an English teacher, a student questionnaire administered to 65 participants, and a document study of the teaching module. The data that gathered with interviews and document study were analyzed using thematic analysis following Braun and Clarke’s (2006) framework, while questionnaire data were analyzed using percentage calculations. The findings revealed four major themes: (1) collaborative engagement, (2) peer support and knowledge sharing, (3) openness and respect toward different opinions, and (4) responsibility and task management. The questionnaire results consistently showed high positive responses across all indicators of collaborative thinking, ranging from 87.7% to 100%. These findings suggest that the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum with Deep Learning Approach positively supports students’ collaborative thinking by fostering active participation, peer interaction, mutual respect, and individual accountability within group learning activities.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of Quizlet in improving students’ vocabulary mastery at SMPN 03 Entikong. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed. The participants were twenty-six eighth-grade students selected through cluster random sampling. A vocabulary test consisting of spelling, usage, and meaning aspects was used as the research instrument. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 27, including descriptive statistics, Shapiro-Wilk normality test, paired sample t-test, and effect size analysis. The findings revealed that students’ vocabulary performance improved after the implementation of Quizlet. The mean score increased from 50.08 in the pre-test to 62.22 in the post-test, with a mean difference of 12.14. The normality test showed that the data were normally distributed. The paired sample t-test indicated a statistically significant difference between the two tests (t = 3.885, p < 0.001). Furthermore, the effect size value of 0.76 demonstrated that Quizlet had a strong practical impact on students’ learning outcomes. Improvements were observed in all vocabulary aspects, although usage remained the most challenging. In conclusion, Quizlet is an effective supplementary tool for enhancing students’ vocabulary mastery. Its interactive features support students’ motivation, engagement, and independent learning in English classrooms.

Abstract

Children residing in the Juvenile Correctional Facility (LPKA) generally experience school dropout, low literacy levels, and limited access to educational opportunities that promote empowerment. These conditions negatively affect their academic abilities, learning motivation, and self-confidence. This community service program was implemented to enhance basic English proficiency while simultaneously fostering creative expression through an integrative learning model that combines experiential language activities with creativity-based tasks. The results of the pre-test and post-test indicate substantial improvement: vocabulary mastery increased by 63%, the ability to construct simple sentences improved by 61%, and the use of functional expressions rose by 65%. Observations and interviews further revealed positive changes in learning attitudes, motivation, and students’ willingness to participate actively. Creative skills also improved significantly, with 80% of participants able to produce English mini posters, 75% successfully developing story cards with clear narrative sequences, 60% capable of presenting their work orally, and 80% demonstrating positive expressions and enthusiasm throughout the activities. These findings suggest that creativity-based language learning not only enhances linguistic competence but also strengthens emotional resilience and self-expression. Overall, the program serves as an effective empowerment strategy for juvenile residents, supporting their academic, psychological, and social development.
