Abstract

This study aims to determine the significant effect of implementing the Project- Based Learning (PjBL) model on the news comprehension skills of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Sibolangit in the 2025/2026 academic year. The research employed a post-test-only control group design with a sample of 59 students divided into two groups: 29 students in the control class and 30 students in the experimental class. The research instrument was a test administered to 59 students and validated by experts. The normality test showed that the control class obtained a statistic value of 0.166 with a significance (p-value) of 0.364, while the experimental class obtained a statistic value of 0.127 with a significance of 0.200, indicating that both significance values were above the 0.05 threshold and thus normally distributed. The homogeneity test using Levene’s Test showed a Levene Statistic value of 3.695 with a significance (Sig.) of 0.060 based on the mean approach. Since the significance value was greater than 0.05, it can be concluded that the variances between the experimental and control classes were homogeneous. The t-test result showed t = 11.798 (df = 57) with Sig. 0.000 < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between the experimental class (mean = 88.66) and the control class (mean = 66.62). The mean difference of 22.03 (95% CI: 18.18–25.89) indicates that the learning applied in the experimental class significantly improved students’ learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of portfolio assessment in Indonesian language learning under the Merdeka Curriculum for seventh-grade students at SMP Swasta Katolik Budi Murni 2 Medan. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. The subjects consisted of an Indonesian language teacher, 22 seventh-grade students, and students’ portfolio documents. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, documentation, and open-ended questionnaires, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings show that the teacher understands portfolio assessment as a continuous evaluation, yet its implementation remains limited to certain writing tasks and has not been fully integrated into daily learning activities. Student reflection and teacher feedback were not optimal, while the main challenges included limited time, students’ discipline, and insufficient facilities. Nevertheless, portfolio assessment was proven to enhance students’ motivation, writing skills, participation, and self-confidence. The study concludes that portfolio assessment is relevant to the principles of the Merdeka Curriculum as it authentically evaluates both process and outcomes of learning. Therefore, teacher training, effective time management, and the development of digital portfolios are needed to optimize its implementation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the structure, elements, errors, and corrections in writing news texts by students of grade VII-2 of Methodist Private Middle School Berastagi in the 2024/2025 Academic Year.The focus of the research includes the application of text structure (title, lead, content, and conclusion), the completeness of the 5W+1H elements (what, who, when, where, why, how), and the use of language in accordance with the General Guidelines for Indonesian Spelling (PUEBI). This research provides theoretical benefits in the development of writing skills studies at the junior high school level, as well as practical benefits for teachers as learning evaluation materials and for students as a means of reflection to improve their writing skills. The method used is descriptive qualitative with data in the form of written works of 30 students analyzed using structural, elemental, and linguistic analysis sheets. Data collection techniques are carried out through documentation, while validity is maintained through diligent observation, peer review, and audit trails. The results of the study indicate that although students have understood the basic structure of news texts, there are still many inaccuracies in arranging the parts of the text logically, as well as incomplete news elements, especially the why and how elements. Linguistic errors such as the use of capital letters, punctuation, and word choice are also still common. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that students' ability to write news texts still needs to be improved, especially in the aspects of completeness of content and accuracy of language. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of more contextual, targeted, and structured practice-oriented writing instruction. The limitations of this study lie in its scope, which only analyzed written output without directly observing the learning process. Therefore, further research is recommended to explore more comprehensive learning strategies to improve students' writing skills.

Abstract

This research presents a comprehensive analysis of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) in higher education, drawing insights from seven studies involving 150 students. The investigation delves into various factors such as academic proficiency, TOEFL scores, and gender distribution. Findings reveal a clustering of TOEFL scores around the midpoint of the range, suggesting a normal distribution. However, gender distribution exhibits significant deviations from normalcy. Despite these variations, detailed statistical analyses offer valuable insights into student performance within EMI programs. Moving beyond data analysis, a systematic review explores the impact and effective practices of EMI in higher education. It acknowledges the ongoing debate regarding EMI's influence on language proficiency and academic achievement. While some studies suggest positive outcomes, others highlight challenges and discrepancies, emphasizing the complexity of evaluating EMI's success. The review underscores the importance of examining diverse linguistic and non-linguistic factors and calls for further research to inform instructional strategies. Furthermore, the study identifies effective practices in EMI implementation, emphasizing instructional techniques, curriculum design, language support services, assessment procedures, faculty development, and reflective practice. These approaches aim to create inclusive learning environments conducive to language acquisition, subject matter learning, and student success. Additionally, the review proposes solutions to address challenges and promote inclusivity in EMI contexts, including cultural orientation programs, academic assistance, institutional regulations, social justice initiatives, intercultural competencies, and student-centered teaching approaches. This holistic approach seeks to enhance the long-term success and well-being of students within the EMI framework in higher education.
