Abstract

Having good writing competence is essential for both students and professionals for writing reports, completing academic assignments, and expressing ideas. However, to be able to write well, writers often face various challenges related to text structure, logical flow, and interference from the native language structure especially when writing in a foreign language. The logical flow in writing can be effectively realized through cohesion and coherence in the text. The objective of this research is to know the realization of both grammatical and lexical cohesion, and coherence strategies employed by students in their writing to perform text texture. This research adopts a qualitative descriptive design using a content analysis (document review) approach. The data were obtained from documents in the form of narrative paragraphs written by English department students. The data were analyzed using the cohesion theory of Halliday and Hasan (1976). The results of the analysis show that the students applied grammatical cohesion in the form of references (55.93%), substitution (0%), conjunctions (33.05%), and ellipsis (11.01%), as well as lexical cohesion in the form of reiteration (56.04%) and collocation (43.96%) in their writing. As for coherence, the students employed strategies such as the repetition of key words (35.07%), the use of pronouns (2.65%), the use of transitions (30.89%), and logical order (8.59%). These results reflect the quality of students’ writing and demonstrate how their flow of ideas are organized coherently and cohesively, resulting in messages to be well-delivered, clear, and unambiguous.

Abstract

Introducing vocabulary to kindergarten children is difficult, especially for foreign languages. They need clear visuals to illustrate a word. Based on the researcher's experience at BiMBA Kindergarten, students were less interested and less motivated in learning English because the learning methods and media were less interesting. Therefore, the researcher aims to conduct this study to assess the effectiveness of the methods and media used on vocabulary mastery. This research was conducted at BiMBA Genuksari with a sample of 30 kindergarten students. A quantitative research method was applied using a pre-experimental design with a pre-test, post-test, and observation as data collection. The results showed the statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test produced a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant difference after treatment. The observation results also showed that students' learning motivation increased after treatment. Therefore, teachers can use flashcards and dragon games to create an engaging and student-centered learning environment. Keywords : Dragon Game, Flashcard, Vocabulary
