Abstract

Recently, a promising model of teaching and learning is an engagement of students and teacher into theory and practice of learning. Doing a more theoretical and discussion models of learning are good to make students understand a topic, but in contrast they are not good in practice. A combination of less theoretical and more practical model of learning, called research-based learning, which allows students to learn things in practice and to train them to analyze and criticize situations deeply, was developed to help students learning various topics based on researches and practice their critical analysis. This study focused on the investigation to see students experience in learning writing skills through the application of research based instruction and see how the model of learning givesthem chance to finish their Skripsi (a research project conducted as a prerequisite of a bachelor degree). Subjects in this study were 60 EFL students enrolled in the Seminar on Language class at English Department of the Faculty of Letters and Cultures in Universitas Negeri Gorontalo. By applying an action research method, students showed significant changes in critical learning performance. The investigation included 2 systematic cycles – Planning, Action, Observation, and Reflection. The results of the study showed that the application of RBI was helpful for the students to help them finishing their final project (the Skripsi), particularly for students of English Department. Most students perceived positively toward the Research based Instruction in the learning process.

Abstract

This research aims to discover how English for Specific Purposes served the English subject materials at the Tourism department in tertiary education. A needs analysis is carried out to gain information about the student’s perception of English teaching and learning status in the Tourism department. The study's design is descriptive quantitative with a perceptional questionnaire as the primary research data collection instrument. The research participants were the students of the Tourism Department at the Muhammadiyah University of Gorontalo. The results showed that Tourism department students at the Muhammadiyah University of Gorontalo used textbooks that were still oriented towards general English, were not made for their specific department, and were not suited to their level of English mastery. Besides the motivation of students to learn English, the correlation of the English they learn with the needs of English for future work and institutional support also deserves attention. Therefore, developing ESP-based English teaching materials for Tourism students in tertiary institutions becomes a priority.

Abstract

Significant language development differences occur in preschoolers, resolving these differences is a key objective of preschool education because young children's language abilities at the start of school, particularly their vocabulary abilities, are a strong predictor of later academic ability. Storytelling is one of the methods used to teach English, it makes the learning environment more interesting, energetic, and conversational. This study aims to examine storytelling in increasing children's vocabulary. The research method is a case study that uses observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection tools. The participants are an English teacher and seven children aged 4-5 years. Although, many early childhoods English teachers state that one of the weaknesses of children in learning English is a lack of vocabulary mastery because it can hamper the learning process. The findings show that storytelling is effective in increasing children's vocabulary. Vocabulary is the foundation for improving children's ability to speak English, both orally and in writing. Second language vocabulary is important to learn and develop for the quality of early childhood learners in language education.

Abstract

Background: The teaching staff is not only responsible for the process of knowledge transactions but more than that, the teaching staff, in this case, lecturers, are also required to make assessment and measurement instruments to find out the extent to which students are able and able to master the English material in an evaluation process or rather a test. Purpose: To find out how the validity analysis of learning outcome tests made by English lecturers at the IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo Language Development Center Method: This research is evaluative research that evaluates question items using a quantitative approach. Results and Discussion: IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo lecturers tend to make learning outcome test questions in objective form based on practical courses' characteristics. With accurate tests, developing questions that can reveal students' applicative abilities, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation is more accessible than objective tests. In designing learning outcome test questions, not all lecturers (around 76%) make a grid of questions used as a reference for writing question items. Even though the grid is essential in writing good questions, in addition to writing questions, most lecturers use a combination of last year's questions and new ones. Making further questions related to the development of science and technology will be more meaningful. Conclusions and Implications: Not all lecturers of English courses at IAIN Sultan Amai Gorontalo have conducted a theoretical review regarding the quality of the questions that have been asked. However, one thing that is quite good and positive in the review that has been carried out by most lecturers, namely the most re-examined aspect, is the suitability of the question material with the competence of learning outcomes. There are still some weaknesses in several question sets, namely for objective tests. The aspect that is still weak is the non-uniformity of the short length of statements between answer choices and the separation of the main question page from the answer page. Another drawback to this form of the test is that there are still pictures accompanying the questions that are not clear.

Abstract

The study reported in this article aims to investigate whether the use of the Direct Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA) strategy can help students find ways to enhance their English reading comprehension of narrative texts at a vocational senior high school in the Province of Gorontalo. The study focused on first-grade students, particularly in class X TKJ. A quantitative method was employed, utilizing a one-group pre-test post-test design to determine the significant difference in students’ comprehension before and after being taught using the strategy. The results indicate that the use of the Direct Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA) strategy help enhances students’ reading comprehension of English narrative texts. This was evidenced by a significant difference between the mean scores of the pre-test (8.7) and post-test (18.48). The t-test result indicated that T-test was higher than T-list: 13.91 > 2.056, with a significance level (α) of 0.05 = 2.056. Thus, H1 was accepted since L0 < L-list (0.100 < 0.173). Moreover, the use of this strategy facilitated students in maintaining focus, fostering critical thinking, active engagement in the learning process, enhancing comprehension of reading components, and understanding reading texts more easily.
