Abstract

This study investigated the influence of English songs on students’ pronunciation skills at UPT SMP Negeri 3 Pangsid. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pre-test–post-test control-group design was employed. The participants were 27 seventh-grade students, consisting of 15 students in the experimental group and 12 students in the control group. The experimental group received pronunciation instruction through the English children’s song “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star,” whereas the control group was taught through conventional classroom activities. Data were collected using a pronunciation test assessing articulation, word stress, rhythm, and intonation. The data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, Shapiro–Wilk normality testing, Levene’s homogeneity testing, and an independent-samples t-test. The experimental group’s mean score increased from 42.33 in the pre-test to 72.00 in the post-test, while the control group increased only from 51.67 to 53.33. The post-test difference was statistically significant, t(25) = 3.784, p < .001, with a mean difference of 18.667. These findings demonstrate that English songs significantly improve junior high school students’ pronunciation by providing repeated, meaningful, and enjoyable exposure to English sounds and prosodic patterns. English songs are therefore recommended as an engaging instructional medium for pronunciation practice.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Fun English Learning (FEL) application in enhancing the English vocabulary mastery of eighth-grade students at UPT SMP Negeri 1 Pangsid, Sidenreng Rappang. A quantitative quasi-experimental method with a pre-test-post-test control group design was employed. The participants consisted of 31 students: 16 students in the experimental group who learned vocabulary through the FEL application and 15 students in the control group who received conventional instruction. A 20-item multiple-choice vocabulary test was administered before and after the treatment. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk test, Levene's test, and an Independent Samples t-test with SPSS version 26. The experimental group's mean score increased from 63.13 on the pre-test to 77.19 on the post-test, whereas the control group's mean score changed only from 58.00 to 58.67. The post-test comparison yielded t(29) = 5.007, p < 0.001, with a mean difference of 18.52 points. The findings demonstrate that students taught through FEL achieved significantly higher vocabulary outcomes than students taught through conventional instruction. The application's interactive games, quizzes, pronunciation practice, listening activities, multimedia support, and immediate feedback provided repeated and engaging opportunities to process vocabulary. Therefore, FEL can be considered an effective technology-assisted medium for supporting vocabulary instruction among junior high school students.

Abstract

This study investigated the level of tenth-grade students' interest in learning English through English pop songs at SMAN 4 Wajo and identified the internal and external factors influencing that interest. The research employed an integrated mixed-method design. Quantitative data were collected through a 12-item questionnaire organized around four indicators: feeling of enjoyment, students' interest, acceptance, and students' engagement. Qualitative data were obtained through semi-structured interviews with selected students and classroom observations. Questionnaire data were analyzed using score percentages and interest-level categories, while qualitative data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing and verification, and triangulation. The results showed a total questionnaire score of 694 out of a maximum of 840, producing an overall percentage of 82.62%, which was categorized as high. Feeling of enjoyment contributed the largest share of the total score (186; 26.80%), followed by acceptance (171; 24.64%), students' interest (170; 24.50%), and students' engagement (167; 24.06%). Qualitative findings identified four internal factors - enjoyment, motivation, curiosity about lyrics and vocabulary, and personal preference for pop songs - and two external factors - teachers and learning activities, and accessibility through social media and digital platforms. These findings indicate that English pop songs can provide an enjoyable and relevant learning medium that supports students' interest, motivation, and participation in English learning.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate whether the use of interactive multimedia improved students’ reading comprehension and increased their interest in learning reading among eighth-grade students of SMP Negeri 4 Panca Rijang. The study employed a mixed-method design involving experimental and control groups. The population consisted of 82 eighth-grade students, while the sample comprised 40 students selected through cluster sampling. Class VIII.C was assigned as the experimental group, and Class VIII.D served as the control group, with 20 students in each class. Data were collected through reading comprehension tests and a questionnaire on students’ learning interest. The findings showed that students taught using interactive multimedia achieved better reading comprehension than those taught through conventional instruction. The mean post-test score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group (59.35 > 46.75). In addition, the t-test value was greater than the t-table value at the 0.05 significance level (3.581 > 2.021), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. The questionnaire results also revealed that students showed positive interest in learning reading comprehension through interactive multimedia. Specifically, 20% of students were strongly interested, 70% were interested, and 10% were moderately interested. The mean questionnaire score was 79.55, which was categorized as interested. Therefore, interactive multimedia can be considered an effective and engaging instructional medium for enhancing students’ reading comprehension in the English classroom.

Abstract

Writing recount texts requires students to retell past experiences coherently while applying appropriate grammatical features, especially past tense forms, prepositions, noun pluralization, articles, pronouns, conjunctions, and punctuation. However, EFL students frequently experience difficulties in producing grammatically accurate recount texts. This study aims to identify and classify the most frequent grammatical errors found in students’ recount text writing. The study employed a descriptive quantitative design involving 40 third-year students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected from students’ written recount texts about unforgettable personal experiences, which were written in class within 60 minutes. The data were analyzed using an error analysis procedure consisting of error identification, classification, tabulation, and percentage calculation. The errors were categorized into verb forms, prepositions, noun pluralization, articles, pronouns, conjunctions, and punctuation or writing mechanics. The findings revealed that verb form errors were the most frequent, occurring in 92.5% of students’ texts, followed by preposition errors at 85%, noun pluralization errors at 75%, article errors at 57.5%, pronoun errors at 52.5%, conjunction errors at 37.5%, and punctuation errors at 22.5%. These results indicate that students had not fully mastered the grammatical features required in recount writing, particularly the consistent use of past tense forms. The study suggests that grammar instruction should be integrated with genre-based writing practice, explicit feedback, and remedial activities focused on students’ recurring grammatical problems. The findings provide pedagogical input for English teachers in designing more effective writing instruction to improve students’ grammatical accuracy and overall writing quality.
