Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Kaili folktales in enhancing students’ reading comprehension at SMPN 19 Palu. The research was motivated by students' difficulties in understanding narrative texts, reflecting low reading comprehension levels. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 43 eighth-grade students divided into an experimental group (n = 23) and a control group (n = 20). The experimental group was taught using Kaili folktales, while the control group used general folktales. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests consisting of multiple-choice and essay questions. The results revealed that the experimental group achieved a higher average post-test score (71.04) compared to the control group (61.35). A Mann-Whitney test using SPSS 26 yielded a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.001, indicating a significant difference between the groups. The findings suggest that incorporating Kaili folktales into English instruction effectively enhances students’ reading comprehension.

Abstract

Grammar proficiency is vital for effective writing in English, particularly concerning the simple present tense in descriptive texts. While numerous studies have documented common grammatical errors, a gap exists in understanding the specific errors made by students at SMKN 5 Palu. This research aimed to identify and classify the types of errors made by tenth-grade students in their use of the simple present tense in descriptive texts and to determine the most prevalent error types. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach and Dulay's Surface Strategy Taxonomy, data were collected from 15 students through their written texts. The findings indicated that omission errors were the most frequent, accounting for 57.97% of total errors, followed by missordering errors at 8.70%. These results highlight significant challenges with subject-verb agreement and the correct application of auxiliary verbs. The study concludes that enhancing grammar instruction and incorporating error analysis can substantially improve students' writing proficiency. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions in grammar education to address specific error patterns and enhance overall writing skills.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the Snowball Throwing technique in improving the speaking skills of junior high school students. Speaking is considered a crucial aspect of English language learning, requiring students to communicate ideas clearly and confidently. Traditional methods often fail to stimulate active participation, prompting the need for more engaging approaches. The Snowball Throwing technique offers an interactive alternative that involves students writing questions on pieces of paper, crumpling them into balls, and throwing them to classmates who answer them verbally. This activity fosters spontaneous speech, peer interaction, and critical thinking. A quasi-experimental design was used with two classes: an experimental group taught using the Snowball Throwing technique and a control group taught using conventional methods. Before the treatment, the average score of the experimental group was 62.4 and the control group was 62.2. After the application of Snowball Throwing Technique, the experimental group’s post-test score increased to 82.6, while the control group only reached 68.5. The Mann-Whitney U test results showed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), which means there is a significant difference between the two groups. This technique proved to be effective in improving speaking skills, especially in the aspects of fluency, accuracy, and comprehensibility. In addition, this technique also increased students’ confidence and active participation, in line with Vygotsky’s theory that social interaction in cooperative learning accelerates language acquisition.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance students’ speaking skills in an academic setting by applying the Team-based Learning Model and describe how they perceive the implementation of IDLE digital technology-based devices in the application of the team-based learning model. Mixed Method research is used in this investigation. An experimental method was used to collect quantitative data, applying the Team-based Learning model to teach speaking skills to two student groups, which were selected using a probability sampling technique. Questionnaires and oral tests were used to gather quantitative data, while qualitative data was collected through focus group discussions and interviews. The quantitative data was analyzed using descriptive statistics with SPSS for Windows, and the qualitative data, which focuses on the problems and the objectives of the research, was analyzed using Content Analysis. The results of the data analysis show more students passed the Speaking in Academic Context Course than the students did in the previous academic years. The passing scores are between 71 to 76 and 86 to 100, or grades B (Good) and A (Very Good). According to the findings of data analysis on student perceptions obtained from questionnaires, students used several IDLE digital technology-based devices to complete projects, used the IDLE digital technology-based devices for fairly effective periods, between 30 minutes and over an hour per day, and used them for both receptive and productive activities individually and in group. The findings imply that the effective selection of teaching models and instructional media, especially the application of IDLE digital technology-based devices, is needed to motivate students to learn individually and in groups.

This research aims to analyze how to implement role play in teaching speaking English based on the previous research. This study applied a library research, which is part of qualitative research. Data were collected through undergraduate thesis, thesis, and journal articles published in 2014 to 2023. The data were analyzed using content analysis based on Harmer (2007). There are ten scientific writings from Susilo (2014), Hidayanti (2015), Sholikah (2017), Agustiningrum (2019), Sholiha (2020), Tumada et al. (2020), Marwa (2020), Arifin (2021), Farisya (2022), and Magfirah (2022). Some researchers refer to expert recommendations using role play by Harmer (2007), Lewin (1990), and Kemmis and Mc Taggart (1988) procedure. The results of the study show that the implementation of role play is effective in improving students speaking skills because students take a new identity and learn to use a foreign language students for every day interaction. Besides that, role play technique is ineffective in teaching speaking skills because of some factors for some students and teacher. Students and teachers using the role play technique to develop and teach speaking skills should prioritize preparation, participation, and reflection. To get the most out of the learning experience, students should actively participate in the scenarios, taking on their roles with excitement and originality. They should also be receptive to comments and willing to practice frequently in order to enhance their fluency and confidence. Teachers should carefully select or create role play scenarios that are both relevant and demanding, with clear directions and enough support.

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to describe how the implementation of Flashcards in teaching vocabulary and to describe how is students’ vocabulary mastery is after the implementation of Flashcards. The study applied qualitative design that implemented the Library Research Method. The data were collected from scientific writings on implementing Flashcards in teaching vocabulary between 2011 and 2021. The scientific writing was found on the internet. The data were analyzed using content analysis based on Wright (1989). There are nine scientific writings as the data. The results of data analysis showed that implementing Flashcards in nine different studies was carried out using many methods. Some researchers refer to expert recommendations using Flashcards. Buttner (2007), Budden (2013), Allen (1983), Read (2013), Wright (1989), and Harmer (2007). All studies show that students' vocabulary increases after applying Flashcards in their research. Flashcards have some impact on students. For example, Flashcards increase students' motivation to learn vocabulary, students easily understand the material, students can make simple sentences, students acquire new vocabulary, students' vocabulary increases, and students can understand the material. The increase in students' vocabulary is caused by several factors, namely the amount of treatment given, class conditions, and the strategies used by the teachers to overcome students' vocabulary weaknesses.
