Abstract

Vocabulary development is critical from both a theoretical and a practical point of view. Vocabulary is a central factor in the process of language learning. This research is based on the idea that students are required to use English in daily interactions in the school's language program. Therefore, learning English vocabulary is crucial for improving students’ language skills. Teachers must know the students' abilities before conducting the learning activities. This study used ex post facto research design to reveal students’ vocabulary ability by conducting sentence construction tests. The study found that students' vocabulary is at a sufficient level. Therefore, students are required to improve their vocabulary to a higher level. This study highlights that various vocabulary activities should be intensified in the classroom to build up students’ active vocabulary and enable them to speak communicatively.

Abstract

Abstract This study examines learning models applied in learning activities used by teachers in the implementation of the independent curriculum. In this research, a qualitative descriptive method was used. The data were collected through interviews and participant observation in natural classroom settings. This study found that teachers observed in classes with the independent curriculum tended to apply learning models that supported students' creativity and improved their critical thinking skills. There are four learning models that teachers tend to implement, namely Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Project-based Learning (PJBL), Discovery Learning (DL), and Inquiry Learning (IL). These four models can foster 4C skills, namely collaborative, creative, critical thinking or critical thinking, and also communication or building good multi-directional communication in the learning process. This research implies that teachers must be able to choose the right learning model in learning so that students can improve their competence.

Abstract

Speaking skills are crucial for effective communication and a cornerstone of language learning. However, many seventh-grade students at SMPN 2 Ubud in the academic year 2024/2025 exhibited deficiencies in their speaking skills, characterized by shyness and fear of making mistakes. This research aimed to investigate whether the implementation of the ESA (Engage, Study, Activate) technique could significantly improve the speaking skills of these students. A classroom action research approach was employed, involving two cycles of data collection through pre-tests, post-tests, and student questionnaires. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in the students' mean scores from the pre-test to the post-test, indicating the effectiveness of the ESA technique. 1 Furthermore, the questionnaire revealed positive student feedback regarding the implementation of this approach. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the ESA technique is an effective strategy for enhancing the speaking skills of seventh-grade students at SMPN 2 Ubud in the academic year 2024/2025.

Abstract

This study examines the incorporation of local wisdom into pedagogical approaches in junior high schools in Bali, emphasizing how educators integrate Balinese cultural values and practices into classroom instruction. This research examines the utilization of local wisdom, the teaching methods employed, and the problems faced in various educational environments through culturally responsive pedagogy. A qualitative case study methodology encompassed classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with educators and administrators, and an analysis of instructional documents. Research indicates that Balinese philosophies, such Tri Hita Karana and Tat Twam Asi, and other local wisdom together with community-oriented practices, are amalgamated through storytelling, project-based learning, reflective writing, and experiential instruction. These methodologies promote student involvement, cultural consciousness, and moral advancement. Nonetheless, obstacles hinder its implementation, such as time limitations, the absence of culturally pertinent teaching materials, insufficient professional development, and demands from the conventional curriculum. The study underscores differences in integration methods based on regional and institutional contexts prioritizing reflective and discussion-oriented approaches. The findings confirm that teaching grounded on local wisdom increases the significance and effectiveness of education, while simultaneously acting as a vehicle for cultural preservation. The study advocates for enhanced institutional support, educator training, and curriculum adaptability to foster culturally relevant education.

Abstract

Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini berupaya meningkatkan profesionalisme guru melalui metodologi kolaboratif, khususnya melalui pelaksanaan Lesson Study dan Professional Learning Community (PLC) di sekolah mitra. Pelaksanaan program ini didorong oleh kurangnya tingkat refleksi guru dan praktik kolaboratif dalam desain dan evaluasi pembelajaran. Teknik implementasi program ini meliputi pelatihan, pendampingan siklus Lesson Study (Plan–Do–See), dan pembentukan Professional Learning Community (PLC) sebagai platform untuk refleksi kolektif dan peningkatan keterampilan. Keberhasilan PkM Lesson Study dan Professional Learning Community (PLC) yang diterapkan bagi para pendidik bahasa Inggris dapat dilihat dari data yang dikumpulkan selama PkM. Data pra-tes dan post-tes menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman peserta yang substansial, dengan skor rata-rata meningkat dari 60,28 menjadi 89,44. Lebih lanjut, hasil kuesioner menunjukkan bahwa 90% peserta menyatakan sangat setuju dengan manfaat PkM, tanpa ada umpan balik negatif yang terdokumentasi. Data tersebut menunjukkan bahwa lokakarya tersebut efektif meningkatkan pengetahuan dan sikap guru terhadap pembelajaran profesional kolaboratif. Laporan ini menganjurkan pengenalan dan promosi berkelanjutan kegiatan Lesson Study dan Professional Learning Community di lembaga pendidikan.

Abstract

The advancement of information and communication technology has profoundly altered educational models. The engagement between teachers and learners is no longer limited to traditional classrooms but expands to various online platforms. A qualitative method utilizing a descriptive-analytical approach has been implemented in this study. Information was gathered through detailed interviews with teachers, observations within academic environments, and reviews of existing literature. The analysis reveals trends in how teachers are adapting to technological advancements. The findings indicate that digitalization has redefined the role of teachers as the leading providers of knowledge, reducing their authority from students' perspective. While technology enhances accessibility to learning resources, it also brings ethical challenges, including a rise in consumer-oriented attitudes and a preference for instant gratification. Teachers must effectively integrate technology into their teaching, devise innovative strategies, and reconcile technological progress with character education to stay relevant. Therefore, transformations in education can serve as opportunities to enrich the overall quality of learning.

Abstract

With an emphasis on how social and cultural elements impact communication, identity, and interaction, this study investigates how sociolinguistics shapes students' language use in multilingual classrooms. Students frequently switch between local, national, and international languages like English in multilingual educational settings, leading to intricate linguistic patterns. Using a qualitative design, the study examined how sociolinguistic dynamics emerge through teacher and student interviews and classroom observations in regular learning interactions. The results show that various factors, including peer pressure, instructors' language preferences, and the sociocultural status of particular languages, influence how students use language. Interviews revealed, for example, that students frequently transition between Indonesian, English, and their native tongues based on the situation and the person speaking to them. Teachers also purposefully employed sociolinguistic techniques like translanguaging to establish connections and guarantee understanding. In addition to facilitating communication, these activities helped students develop their social identities. The findings highlight how crucial sociolinguistic understanding is to creating welcoming classrooms that celebrate linguistic variety. According to findings, incorporating sociolinguistic perspectives into teaching methods can improve language acquisition, advance linguistic equity, and fortify students' multilingual proficiency.
