Abstract

This study aims to analyze differences in student learning outcomes in science using PhET Simulation learning media using ordinary learning media, analyze differences in science learning outcomes students have high learning motivation with low learning motivation in class IX SMP Negeri 7 Tarutung, and analyze the interaction between computer learning media and learning motivation on science learning outcomes for grade IX students of SMP Negeri 7 Tarutung. The research population was all grade IX students of SMP Negeri 7 Tarutung. The sample was set at 55 people consisting of 2 (two) classes, with details of class IX-A totaling 30 people, class IX-C totaling 25 people. The research design used in this study was an experimental design with a 2x2 factorial. In this study, the first independent variable consisted of two, namely PhET Simulation media and ordinary media. Meanwhile, the second independent variable (moderator variable) consists of high and low learning motivation and the dependent variable is science learning outcomes. The results showed that based on the Anova test, the results obtained were sig = 0.000 < sig = 0.05, which means that the science learning outcomes of students using PhET Simulation media were higher in science learning outcomes of students using conventional media. Based on the Anova test, the results obtained are sig = 0.003 <sig = 0.05, which means that groups of students who have high learning motivation get higher science learning outcomes than groups of students who have low learning motivation. The results of the Anova test obtained the results of sig = 0.004 <sig = 0.05, which means that there is an interaction between the use of learning media and learning motivation in influencing students' science learning outcomes.

Variabel bebas kedua (variabel moderator) terdiri dari motivasi belajar tinggi dan rendah serta variabel terikatnya adalah hasil belajar IPA. Hasil penelitian dikemukakan bahwa berdasarkan uji Anava diperoleh hasil hitung sig=0,000<sig=0,05 yang berarti bahwa hasil belajar IPA siswa menggunakan media PhET Simulation lebih tinggi hasil belajar IPA siswa menggunakan media konvensional. Berdasarkan uji Anava diperoleh hasil hitung sig=0,003<sig=0,05 yang berarti bahwa kelompok siswa yang memiliki motivasi belajar tinggi memperoleh hasil belajar IPA lebih tinggi dari kelompok siswa yang memiliki motivasi belajar rendah. Hasil uji Anava diperoleh hasil hitung sig=0,004<sig=0,05 yang berarti bahwa terdapat interaksi antara penggunaan media pembelajaran dan motivasi belajar dalam memberikan pengaruh terhadap hasil belajar IPA siswa.

Abstract

In this digital age, the presence of internet memes becomes a common way to share information online. People may use different stylistic and rhetoric elements to communicate their ideas and convey a particular meaning. This paper aimed to analyze stylistic and rhetoric elements employed in the selected memes in education context by using Van Dijk Critical Discourse Analysis. The data were forty memes related to education which were collected from four Instagram groups, namely itb.receh, school_life memoriess, 9gag.com, and memeindonesia.real. This research utilized descriptive qualitative method. The result showed that in stylistic, the most dominant dictions used were slang and denotative. The high frequency of using slang is done as a strategy to express a sense of familiarity to audiences and to show portrait of daily basis situation in students’ lives, while the use of denotative dictions conveys clear understanding and avoid misinterpretation toward these memes. Furthermore, in rhetoric elements, no metaphor is found in the selected memes while graphics is mostly used in the memes to highlight important parts. It was delivered through the production of words in bigger size, bold, different colour, different type of fonts, words which are crossed out, and the use of emoticon. Graphic provides a visual representation for audiences and these highlighted words help them comprehend messages and values which the writer is trying to deliver.

Abstract

A pleasant environment is essential for student motivation and interaction, and effective classroom management plays a key role in this. Utilizing humor in teaching creates a more welcoming and humanistic classroom atmosphere, thereby improving the overall teaching-learning process. This study aims to identify the categories of humor employed by English teachers in the classroom. A qualitative descriptive method was used for the research. Six English class sessions were observed and recorded. The data for this study consisted of humor-containing utterances made by English teachers. The analysis classified teacher humor into two main categories: appropriate and inappropriate forms. Most of the humor used by teachers fell into the appropriate category, with the majority being related to the class material, followed by humor unrelated to the subject being taught. A small portion of inappropriate humor included self-deprecating humor, while another small portion was unintentional or unplanned. In contrast, inappropriate humor was rare and typically involved derogatory comments directed at others. These findings highlight that most of the humor used was lesson-related and aligned with pedagogical objectives, while inappropriate humor was infrequent. The results suggest that humor in the classroom is primarily used as a positive pedagogical tool, contributing to an engaging and supportive learning environment. Future research should explore the impact of different humor categories on student learning outcomes and classroom dynamics.

Abstract

Language proficiency, particularly in English, is pivotal for students in Indonesia, yet many encounter Foreign Language Speaking Anxiety (FLSA) when required to speak English. This study examines FLSA among tenth-grade students, identifying varying anxiety levels. Most students fell into the moderate anxiety category, indicating that a significant portion experiences a moderate level of anxiety when speaking in a foreign language. A smaller but notable group of students reported high levels of anxiety, suggesting they face significant challenges due to their high anxiety levels. Internal factors contributing to anxiety include low proficiency, lack of practice, and fear of errors, while external factors encompass negative evaluations and social scrutiny. Additional factors identified include anxiety from recording and past negative experiences. Insights from Horwitz, MacIntyre, and Gardner's anxiety frameworks guide the study, emphasizing the complex interplay of cognitive, affective, and environmental factors. Data from questionnaires and interviews underscore the pervasive nature of speaking anxiety and highlight the need for supportive learning environments to alleviate anxiety and enhance language learning outcomes.
