Abstract

Some studies investigated the use of synchronous and asynchronous learning in EFL classrooms. However, the investigation of blended synchronous and asynchronous learning use in the reading comprehension class was scarce. Therefore, the researchers in this present study focused on investigating the effectiveness of the blended synchronous and asynchronous learning implementation for teaching reading comprehension. This study aimed to know whether or not there was a significant difference in the students’ reading comprehension ability before and after the blended synchronous and asynchronous learning implementation. This was a pre-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Meanwhile, the population in this study were three classes of the third-semester students of non-English departments of a university in Jombang. One class consisting of twenty-five students was taken as the sample using purposive sampling. The experimental students were given a pretest of reading comprehension before getting the six-meeting treatment of blended synchronous and asynchronous learning. After the treatment finished, they did the reading comprehension posttest. After all the reading scores were collected, the descriptive statistics, normality test, and paired sample t-test were applied using SPSS. The t-test result showed that the obtained t-count (11.616) was higher than the t-table (2.063). That result revealed that the students’ reading comprehension ability was significantly different before and after the blended synchronous and asynchronous learning application. Thus, blended synchronous and asynchronous learning was effective for teaching reading comprehension. Then, it is highly recommended for EFL lecturers to combine synchronous and asynchronous learning in their remote English classes.

Abstract

The online EFL teaching and learning in this COVID-19 pandemic era has been conducted synchronously and asynchronously. However, the implementation of blended synchronous and asynchronous learning in the online grammar class was still scarce. Therefore, this study was conducted with the purpose of knowing whether or not the use of blended synchronous and asynchronous learning was effective for teaching grammar. This study was a pre-experimental research using one-group pretest-posttest design. The population of this study was the students of the second semester in the English department of a private university located in East Java. Because there was only one class in this second semester so that the sample was the same as this population. There were fifteen students in this sample. In collecting the data, the researchers used the pretest and posttest of grammar. After the data of pretest and posttest were in the normal distribution, the testing of hyphothesis using t-test especially paired samples test was conducted. The result of this t-test showed that the Sig. (2-tailed) 0.000 was lower than 0.05. It revealed that the difference of the mean scores of pretest and posttest was significant. Thus, the use of blended synchronous and asynchronous learning was effective for teaching grammar.
