Abstract

This research aims to enhance students' speaking skills through project-based learning, increasing their engagement and active participation. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and classroom observations involving ten eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Sembalun academic year 2024. Thematic analysis was employed to identify critical patterns and themes within the collected data. The findings indicate that students found the project-based method a more enjoyable and meaningful way to practice speaking. They reported increased confidence and engagement in speaking activities due to the opportunities to work in groups and undertake relevant projects. However, some students also faced challenges like group collaboration and time management. This study provides in-depth insights into how project-based learning methods can impact students' speaking skills and offers recommendations for improving the implementation of this approach in the classroom.

Abstract

This researcher aims to determine the students' interest through pop up books towards the success of English learning and the students' ability to use this technique in the learning process. For qualitative data, a questionnaire was used by distributing questionnaires to students and then conducting several interviews about the application of the technique. The test results increased to 85%. Meanwhile, as a result of analyzing students' opinions, we found that pop up book media is effective in improving students' English interest. Applying pop up technique in English learning, especially interest, is an appropriate strategy to increase students' English interest in the classroom.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the factors contributing to students' anxiety when speaking English in the tenth grade at SMAN 1 Masbagik during the 2025-2026 academic year. A qualitative descriptive design was used, employing observation, interviews, and questionnaires as the main data collection instruments. The findings reveal that students experience three types of anxiety: communication concerns, test anxiety, and fear of negative evaluation. The main factors that trigger speaking anxiety include limited vocabulary, fear of making mistakes, pronunciation difficulties, and fear of negative evaluation. To overcome these challenges, students applied several strategies such as repeated practice, relaxation techniques, positive self-talk, preparing for language comprehension/grammar, and seeking peer support. This study concluded that student speaking anxiety is a multidimensional problem influenced by linguistic and psychological factors, requiring efforts from teachers and students to foster a more supportive learning environment.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in enhancing the speaking skills of students at SMAN 1 Sembalun. Using a pre-experimental design with pre-test and post-test assessments, the research involved 16 eleventh-grade students. The results indicated a significant improvement in speaking abilities, with the average pre-test score of 48.75 increasing to an average post-test score of 71.56 after the PBL intervention. This shift reflected enhanced pronunciation, fluency, and grammar usage, demonstrating that students became more confident communicators. While PBL proved beneficial, challenges such as time constraints and the need for effective facilitation were identified. This research contributed to the growing body of evidence supporting PBL as an effective pedagogical approach, highlighting its potential to foster independent learning and improve communication skills.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to improve elementary school students’ interest and basic competence in learning English through the implementation of Fun English Activities in Gubuk Daya, Kelayu Utara Village. The program was conducted due to the absence of English instruction in the local primary school, which limited students’ early exposure to the language. The activities were carried out in the form of tutoring sessions using a play-based learning approach that integrated games, songs, picture-based quizzes, and interactive activities focusing on basic vocabulary, simple expressions, adjectives, and colors. The results indicated that students showed improvement in vocabulary mastery, confidence in speaking, and learning motivation. The use of fun and interactive activities created a positive learning environment and encouraged active participation. Therefore, Fun English Activities proved to be an effective alternative strategy for introducing English to young learners in community-based educational programs.

Abstract

Pronunciation clarity is one of the most crucial aspects in mastering English for EFL learners, yet many students still struggle with phoneme articulation, word stress, and intonation. Preliminary observation at MA Birrul Walidain NW Rensing revealed that 11th-grade students frequently mispronounced phonemes such as /θ/ and /ð/, misplaced stress, and produced monotonous intonation, which hindered their intelligibility and confidence. This highlights the urgency of applying an effective and structured phonological training method to improve students’ pronunciation. The present study aimed to examine the impact of the Repeated Reading (RR) technique as a phonological practice tool to enhance pronunciation clarity. This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group design. The study was conducted at MA Birrul Walidain NW Rensing during the 2025/2026 academic year, involving 26 eleventh-grade students selected randomly into experimental (n=12) and control groups (n=14). Data were collected through pre-test and post-test oral reading tasks, assessed with a pronunciation rubric covering both segmental and suprasegmental features. The instrument was validated by two English teachers, and data were analyzed using SPSS through Shapiro-Wilk test, Levene’s test, Paired Sample t-Test, and Independent Sample t-Test. The results showed that the experimental group’s mean score increased from 9.00 to 12.58 (SD=2.49 to 2.30), with a mean difference of 3.58 (t=10.62, p=0.000). In contrast, the control group only improved from 9.00 to 9.64 (mean difference=0.64, t=1.64, p=0.125). Independent Sample t-Test confirmed a significant difference in post-test scores between groups (mean diff=2.94, t=2.83, p=0.009). These findings indicate that RR significantly enhances pronunciation clarity, particularly in phoneme accuracy, stress placement, intonation, and rhythm. Thus, repeated reading can be considered an effective strategy for EFL pronunciation instruction.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Mindful, Meaningful, and Joyful Learning (MMJL) principles within the Merdeka Curriculum framework in English language teaching at SDN 01 Pijot Utara. The research subjects consisted of a sixth-grade English teacher who served as both the designer of the Teaching Module and the classroom practitioner, along with sixth-grade students as secondary participants. Adopting a qualitative descriptive case study design grounded in Policy Enactment theory, data were collected through document analysis of the Teaching Module and systematic classroom observations. The findings reveal that while the MMJL principles are thoroughly embedded in the macro-structural design of the Teaching Module and successfully enacted during foundational and receptive instructional phases, a significant divergence occurs during productive phases. Activities demanding student autonomy, such as independent writing, reflection, and collaborative summarization, were only partially enacted, largely due to a lack of anticipatory scaffolding in the written plan and the persistence of teacher-centered norms intended to manage classroom silence. The study concludes that although MMJL principles effectively support classroom management and emotional well-being, their potential to drive higher-order intellectual engagement remains constrained by the gap between policy intentions and classroom realities. Practically, this research contributes to curriculum development and teacher training by recommending that Teaching Modules evolve into dynamic pedagogical instruments, supplemented by anticipatory scaffolds and differentiated strategies, to bridge the distance between curriculum vision and practice.
