Abstract

The purpose of the study was to find out whether or not there was a significant difference in reading comprehension between the students who were taught by using THIEVES (Title, Heading, Introduction, Every first sentence, Visual, End of paragraph, Summary) strategy and that of those who were not.The quasi-experimental method was used to conduct the research. The population of the study was all of the eighth-grade students of SMPN 2 Teluk Gelam. In this study, the purposive sampling method was used.The total numbers of the samples were 62 students. The instrument of this research was 30 questions about recount text in the form of multiple-choice test. To analyze the data, t-test was used. Based on the result of independent sample t-test, the value of tobtained was 3.718 at significance level p<0.05 in two-tailed testing and df=60, the critical value of ttable was 2.0003. Since the value of tobtained (3.718) was higher than ttable (2.0003) and pvalue (0.000) was less than αvalue 0.05, it meant that there was a significant difference in reading comprehension between the students who were taught using THIEVES strategy and that of those who were not.

Abstract

This research aimed to investigate whether the students who were taught using Partner Reading Strategy had better reading comprehension achievement than those who were not. The method used was quasi-experimental. The sample of this study was 70 tenth graders involved experimental group (class X MIPA 2) and control group (class X MIPA 3). Each group consisted of 35 students. The written test in the form of multiplechoice was administered to get data collection. Before giving the test, the test was tried out to non-samples students of the eighth-grade students of SMA Negeri 4 Kayuagung class X MIPA 1 to check the validity and reliability of the test. The data were analyzed using t-test. The result of the t-test was significant at p<0.05 with df = 68, the critical value of ttable = 1.995. Since the value of tobtained (9.304) was higher than the critical value of ttable = (1.995), Ho was rejected and Ha was accepted. It means that the students who were taught using Partner Reading Strategy had comprehension in reading that made their reading comprehension achievement improve better and that those who were not.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate if POE (Predict, Observe, Explain) strategy influenced students' reading ability when reading an exposition text. This study was conducted using an experimental design. Purposive sampling was used to select the sample. The sample consisted of 42 students. The research instrument was a multiple-choice test with 40 questions about the exposition text. A t-test was used to analyze the data. Based on the independent sample t-test, the value of t- obtained was -6.793 at significance level p<0.005 in the two-tailed testing and df=40, the critical value of t-table was 2.0210. Since the value of t-obtain (-6.793) was higher than t-table (2.0210) and p-value (0.00) was less than the α value (0.05), it meant that Predict, Observe, Explain strategy helped students learn quickly to understand the content of the text.

Quasi-experimental method was used in this study. To collect data, a written test was in the form of multiple choice questions. The test was tried out in order to find out the reliability of the test. Before analyzing the data, normality and homogeneity were found. To analyze the data, t-test was used. Based on the results of the independent sample t-test, it was found that the t-test obtained (2.917) was higher than the t-table (2.00) and the Pvalue (0.000) was less than ɑ value (0.05). It showed that null hypotheses (Ho) was rejected and alternative hypotheses (Ha) was accepted.

Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into higher education has significantly transformed academic writing instruction, especially within English as an EFL learning environment. This study employed an Explanatory sequential mixed-methods design to investigate EFL students’ perceptions of AI-assisted academic writing and identify the perceived benefits and challenges of its implementation. The participants consisted of 28 EFL students from three Indonesian universities having experience using AI tools in academic writing courses. Quantitative data were collected via closed-ended questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were obtained through semi-structured in-depth interviews to explain the quantitative findings. The quantitative results revealed that students demonstrated highly positive perceptions toward the use of AI in academic writing classes, with an overall mean score of 4.32, categorized as excellent. Students perceived AI as a supportive technology for generating ideas, organizing written text, improving grammatical accuracy, and completing writing tasks more efficiently. The qualitative findings revealed four dominant themes: AI as a writing assistant, improvement of writing efficiency and quality, AI as a means of independent learning, and ethical awareness and academic responsibility. Participants reported that AI supported independent learning, provided immediate feedback, and increased confidence and creativity in writing activities. Nevertheless, students also raised concerns about becoming too dependent on AI and the potential ethical problems related to academic honesty and maintaining originality in their work. The results claim that AI has strong potential to enhance EFL academic writing instruction when integrated pedagogically and used responsibly. It also provides practical implications for EFL lecturers in designing ethical and effective AI-assisted writing instruction in higher education contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the REAP (Read, Encode, Annotate, Ponder) strategy on students’ reading comprehension across different reading habits. The research was conducted with 10 second-semester students from the English Language Education program at FKIP UNISKI Kayuagung. This study applied a quantitative method with a pre-experimental design. A reading habits questionnaire and a reading comprehension test were employed to collect the data. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-tests. Results indicated significant improvements in reading comprehension following the implementation of the REAP strategy, with high and low reading habits groups showing substantial gains. The REAP guided students to listen and read in the reading phase, and then encoding helped them to rephrase their ideas. After that, they could highlight the key points in annotation. Finally, they did group discussions. This process boosts comprehension for all students, regardless of reading habits. Additionally, student perceptions of the REAP strategy varied, with those possessing strong reading habits responding more positively. These findings suggest that the REAP strategy is an effective tool for enhancing reading comprehension across reading habits, fostering skill refinement in proficient readers and marked improvement in less proficient ones.
