Abstract

The integration of digital media in language learning has become increasingly important in modern education. This study explores the use of TikTok as a tool to assess and improve students' descriptive text writing skills in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context. The research was conducted with Class X students at SMA Sultan Iskandar Muda Medan, North Sumatra, using a Classroom Action Research approach. The study involved two cycles: the first without TikTok and the second incorporating TikTok as a learning medium. Data was collected through observations, tests, and assessments of students' written and oral presentations. Results showed a significant improvement in students' descriptive writing skills when using TikTok, with higher scores in content relevance, clarity of description, and overall engagement. The study found that TikTok provided an interactive and engaging platform for students to practice their descriptive writing skills in a real-world context. This research concludes that incorporating TikTok in EFL classrooms can effectively enhance students' descriptive writing abilities and increase their motivation to learn English. The findings suggest that integrating social media platforms like TikTok can be a valuable strategy for language educators seeking to improve students' writing skills in a digital age.

Abstract

English proficiency is a critical skill for university graduates entering the professional world. However, many Indonesian students struggle with practical English applications due to traditional teaching methods that emphasize grammar rather than real-world communication. This study investigates the effectiveness of Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) in enhancing Unimed students’ understanding of English for professional purposes. A mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data, is employed to assess student progress. The research involves classroom observations, pre- and post-tests, surveys, and interviews with students who receive CLT-based instruction. Findings indicate that CLT significantly improves students' ability to write job-related documents, such as CVs, cover letters, and professional emails, as well as their confidence in workplace communication. The study highlights challenges in implementing CLT, including adaptation difficulties and varying levels of student engagement. Based on the results, recommendations are made to integrate CLT into university curricula to better prepare students for professional communication.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to synthesise the concept of entrepreneurial leadership, identify the independence program of Islamic boarding schools, and analyse leadership strategies in developing the entrepreneurial spirit of students. This study employs a qualitative approach, utilising a case study design, where data are collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The data are then analysed in three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The results of the study indicate that Islamic boarding schools integrate entrepreneurship education into their curriculum to equip students with practical skills that can be applied after graduation. Entrepreneurship programs, such as Job Training Centres and Cooperatives, as well as other economic sectors, aim to increase the financial independence of students, create jobs, and reduce unemployment. This approach to integrating religious education and entrepreneurship allows students to make positive contributions to society after graduation. This study suggests that fostering an entrepreneurial spirit in Islamic boarding schools can be an effective alternative educational model for enhancing students' economic independence. The integration of religious education and entrepreneurship prepares students to become entrepreneurial leaders who are economically prosperous and have spiritual values.
