Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study analyzed the types of sentences used in the Abstracts of Journal Articles written by 10 Female and 10 Male fully sourced from the Book Program of The First Annual International Seminar UNIMED Medan: November 19, 2016. Of the 195 sentences, 102 of which were written by females, and 92   by Males, all types of sentences are present. The occurrence of the types of sentence used by Females is Simple Sentence (50.1%), Complex Sentence (37.1%), Complex - Compound Sentence (6.8%),  and Compound Sentence (4.9%).  By Males , Simple Sentence  is (50.%), Complex Sentence (41%),  Compound Sentence  (5.4%) and Complex- Compound Sentence (3.3%). Thus, this proves that the frequency is only different in Complex-Compound, i.e. by Females in the third place, but by Males in the fourth and Compound in the third.  Overall, it can be concluded that gender has no relation with sentence types.Key Words: Types of sentence; Female and Male; Abstracts

Abstract

In higher education, cultivating effective speaking skills is crucial for preparing students to succeed in today's dynamic and interconnected world. Traditional teaching methods often fall short of engaging students and promoting active learning. This research explores the potential of interactive video as an innovative teaching medium to enhance speaking skills while incorporating the 4Cs - Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Creativity - into the learning process. The results indicate that interactive videos significantly impact students' speaking proficiency, as evidenced by improved pre-and post-assessment scores. Moreover, students reported enhanced engagement and motivation during the learning process, attributing it to the dynamic nature of interactive video content, which leverages multimedia elements, real-life scenarios, and interactive exercises. The results indicate that interactive videos significantly impact students' speaking proficiency, as evidenced by improved pre and post-assessment scores. Moreover, students reported enhanced engagement and motivation during the learning process, attributing it to the dynamic nature of interactive video content, which leverages multimedia elements, real-life scenarios, and interactive exercises. Furthermore, incorporating the 4Cs into interactive video design demonstrated transformative effects on students' speaking skills. Integrating collaborative activities fostered teamwork and communication among students, while critical thinking was stimulated through decision-making scenarios embedded within the videos. Additionally, the creative aspect of the interactive videos encouraged students to express their ideas and opinions more freely, ultimately boosting their confidence in public speaking. The findings of this research contribute to the growing body of knowledge on innovative teaching practices and the role of technology in higher education.

Abstract

This case study investigates the impact of blended learning on students' English writing skills, focusing on a group of third-semester students majoring in English Education. Blended learning, which combines traditional face-to-face instruction with online learning components, is explored as a pedagogical approach that enhances writing proficiency through increased engagement and personalized feedback. Data were collected through questionnaires administered to 20 participants, revealing that a significant majority of students perceive blended learning as a motivating factor that fosters their writing development. The findings indicate that this approach not only improves grammar and overall writing skills but also provides ample opportunities for practice and constructive feedback, which are essential for skill enhancement. Additionally, the study highlights the importance of a supportive learning environment that encourages collaboration and community among students. The results advocate for the broader implementation of blended learning strategies in English writing instruction, emphasizing their potential to empower students and improve their language acquisition outcomes. This research contributes to the growing body of literature on effective teaching methodologies in language education and underscores the need for continuous adaptation and innovation in instructional practices.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in enhancing digital content creation within project-based learning (PBL). Conducted at the Department of English Language and Literature, specifically the English Education Study Program, Faculty of Languages and Arts, Universitas Negeri Medan, the research focuses on students enrolled in the Digital Education Content Creator subject. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing the quality of educational video content compared to conventional methods within a project-based learning framework. The research used a randomized sampling method, involving 80 students divided into two groups: an experimental group of 40 students using AI tools and a control group of 40 students relying on traditional approaches. Both groups created videos assessed based on six key criteria: content quality and relevance, clarity and structure, engagement, technical quality, duration and tempo, and accessibility and usability. The results show that the experimental group achieved significantly higher post-test scores, with an average of 3.8 compared to 2.64 in the control group. Hypothesis testing also supports these findings, with a t-test result exceeding the critical value. The findings confirm that AI tools significantly improve content quality, enabling students to produce more relevant, accessible, and technically refined digital content within a PBL framework. Future research should address AI's long-term effectiveness in different subject areas, accessibility challenges, and ethical concerns in education.

Abstract

This study investigated how combining the case method approach and technology tools can be effective in 21st-century instructional methods. The case method approach in teaching instruments focuses on assisting students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. Its goal is to provide practical learning experiences that allow students to apply these skills in real-world situations. Teachers can successfully incorporate the case method approach into their instrument teaching by selecting appropriate case studies, establishing clear learning objectives, designing engaging activities,and incorporating technology tools such as digital media, interactive simulations, and online platforms. The study findings indicate that integrating the case method approach in technology tools in instruction, course syllabus, and materials improved student engagement and access to information, encouraged student collaboration and communication, and improved critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. As a result, incorporating the case method approach and technology tools into teaching instruments allows teachers to provide a hands-on learning experience that focuses on essential skills. This integration creates a dynamic and interactive learning environment, promoting skill development and optimizing students' overall learning experience.

Abstract

This study aims to design and evaluate SDG-oriented digital learning materials for the Productive Written Language Skill (PWLS) course in alignment with 21st-century learning principles. Responding to the growing need to integrate global citizenship and sustainability into English language education, the materials embed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within argumentative writing tasks. A research and development (R&D) approach (Branch, 2010) was employed, involving expert validation, student testing, and classroom observation. Two subject-matter experts assessed the materials and rated them as very good (M = 4.0) in terms of relevance, clarity, and integration of SDG content. Thirty students from the English Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Medan participated in the implementation stage. Their feedback indicated strong engagement and perceived usefulness (M = 4.16), while pre- and post-test results showed significant improvement in writing performance—from 65.30 to 76.40. Observational data confirmed high student participation and timely task completion, with only minor navigation issues. Overall, the SDG-oriented digital modules effectively supported language development, critical thinking, and 21st-century competencies. The findings imply that SDG-oriented digital materials can effectively foster students’ critical thinking and writing competence in the Productive Written Language Skill course, supporting the goals of 21st-century learning.
