Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of applying the Problem-Based Learning model on improving the ability to analyze the intrinsic elements of short stories. This study uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method and a Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The study was conducted in the odd semester of 2025/2026 at SMPN 5 Campaka. The population of this study was ninth-grade students who participated in learning using problem-based learning. The research sample consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which received treatment using the Problem-Based Learning model, and the control class, which received conventional learning. Data were collected through pre- and post-tests on the ability to analyze the intrinsic elements of short stories. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and parametric inferential statistics, namely the t-test. The results of the study indicate that the application of the Problem-Based Learning model has a significant impact on improving students' abilities to analyze the intrinsic elements of short stories. Students who learned using the Problem-Based Learning model showed a higher increase in scores compared to students who learned conventionally. Thus, the Problem-Based Learning model is effectively used in literature learning to develop students' critical and analytical thinking skills.

Abstract

Vocabulary is an important element in language skills that influences students' speaking, reading, and writing abilities. However, many students still experience limited vocabulary, thus hindering fluency in communication and comprehension of written texts. Through written texts of children's songs, students can learn language in a fun, contextual, and memorable way. This study aims to describe the use of children's songs as a learning medium in developing vocabulary in Indonesian language learning. This study used a quasi-experimental method. The study took place in the odd semester of the 2025/2026 academic year in grade III of Sindangraja 1 State Elementary School, Sukaluyu Cianjur. Indonesian vocabulary data were collected using a test instrument that was compiled objectively and systematically. Vocabulary data were analyzed using descriptive statistical procedures. The results showed that children's songs were able to improve students' vocabulary mastery through repetition of lyrics, pronunciation, and understanding of word meanings. Thus, children's songs are effectively used as a medium for Indonesian language learning in grade III of elementary school.
