Abstract

Feedback is necessary to measure whether students have understood well the lesson that has been delivered. Students should be given feedback to help them become autonomous learners who can regulate aspects of their thinking, motivation, and behaviour during learning. The study aimed to find out how feedback is implemented by the teacher based on Nicol’s framework and to find out students’ perceptions towards the application of formative assessment. A questionnaire was administered to get the data on how feedback that facilitates students’ self-regulation is implemented at MA Negeri 2 Kota Palu. Further, an in-depth interview was used to get students’ perception towards the implementation of feedback. The questionnaire showed that the implementation of feedback at MA Negeri 2 Kota Palu helps clarify what good performance is, facilitates the development of self-assessment in learning, delivers high quality information to students about their learning, encourages teacher and peer dialogue around learning, encourages positive motivational beliefs and self-esteem, and provides opportunities to close the gap between current and desired performance. The interview revealed that students have positive perception towards the feedback implemented by the teacher.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is a fundamental component of English language learning because it enables students to comprehend texts and communicate effectively. However, many junior high school students continue to experience limited vocabulary knowledge due to the use of conventional teaching materials that provide little contextual or cultural relevance. Although previous studies have demonstrated the benefits of storytelling and narrative-based instruction, limited research has explored the effectiveness of local folklore as a contextual medium for enhancing English vocabulary mastery among Indonesian EFL learners. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of folklore-based instruction in improving the English vocabulary mastery of seventh-grade students at SMPN 19 Palu. A pre-experimental design employing a one-group pre-test–post-test approach was used. The participants consisted of 30 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a vocabulary test covering nouns, verbs, and adjectives. The results showed that the mean score increased from 58.17 in the pre-test to 78.43 in the post-test. Furthermore, the paired-samples t-test revealed a statistically significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores (p 0.05). These findings indicate that folklore-based instruction is an effective, contextual, and engaging approach for improving students’ English vocabulary mastery.
