Abstract

Listening is essential in the EFL classroom; however, the textbook lacked listening activities. This study aims to design Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) supplementary listening activities for tenth-grade students at SMAN 10 Pontianak. This study uses the Analysis, Design, Development model as the research and development framework. Data were collected through interviews and a questionnaire involving two English teachers, 93 tenth-grade students, and a curriculum developer. The analysis phase revealed that students and teachers require supplementary material to develop listening skills. In the design phase, the researcher developed an e-book containing nine TBLT-based listening activities, each structured into pre-task, main task, and post-task phases, supported by twelve audio files accessible via QR codes. In the development phase, an internal evaluation was conducted, and the product achieved a high score and was categorized as very feasible across quality criteria, including curriculum alignment, TBLT implementation, and usability.

Abstract

This classroom action research investigated the effectiveness of integrating the EXCUL (Explore, eXpress, Create, Use, Link) method as a pedagogical strategy to foster deep learning engagement among 11th-grade EFL students. Conducted over two intervention cycles, the study examined how experiential and culturally responsive learning sequences supported students’ participation, critical thinking, and meaningful language use. Data were collected through observations, student worksheets, learning artifacts, and engagement checklists, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative thematic coding.Findings showed a clear increase in students’ behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement after the implementation of EXCUL. Students became more active in collaborative tasks, demonstrated improved confidence in expressing ideas, and displayed stronger abilities to connect English learning with real-life cultural contexts. Quantitative scores of engagement and task performance also showed notable gains between Cycle 1 and Cycle 2. The study concludes that the EXCUL method effectively promotes deeper learning approaches by positioning students as active constructors of knowledge. These findings highlight the potential of experiential–cultural integration as a powerful model for student-centered English language teaching in Indonesian classrooms.

Abstract

This research investigated how Telegram Group improved students' vocabulary achievement in terms of word class, consisting of nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, word meanings, and language usage among the grade eight students at SMP Negeri 25 Pontianak. A pre-experimental design was used in the investigation. Enrolment in the study was limited to ninety-four children from eight grade levels (A, B, and C). A total of 32 students from 8B were used as a sample in this study. The research data was derived from the outcomes of both the pre- and post-tests. With a total of thirty items, the test was comprised of multiple-choice questions. Microsoft Excel was used for the data analysis. There was a marked improvement between the results of the pre- and post-tests. Data analysis revealed that after the test, the average score was 89.84, up from 68.53 before the test. Moreover, the effect size was 1.728, suggesting that the alternative hypothesis “The use of Telegram group is effective on vocabulary acquisition of eighth-grade students of SMP Negeri 25 Pontianak” was accepted. Based on the acceptance of the hypothesis, it is suggested that teachers use Telegram Group more often in teaching vocabulary.

Abstract

Writing is an essential English language skill, yet many students experience difficulties in generating ideas, organizing content, and maintaining motivation. Although Canva has been increasingly integrated into language learning, limited studies have explored students' perceptions of its use in Project-Based Learning (PjBL) for writing activities at the junior high school level. This study aimed to explore ninth-grade students' perceptions of using Canva in PjBL for writing activities at SMP Suster Pontianak. A qualitative descriptive design was employed involving 35 students from Class 9B selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires, classroom observations, and documentation. The findings indicated that students generally perceived Canva positively, as it enhanced creativity, motivation, confidence, idea organization, collaboration, and active participation in writing activities. Despite challenges related to internet connectivity and certain Canva features, Canva was perceived as an effective learning tool that supported writing activities within the Project-Based Learning framework.
