Abstract

English Teachers’ Perception of Higher Order Thinking Skills Viewed from Importance and Complexity. Objectives: This study aims at exploring the Vocational High School English teachers’ perception of its importance as well as its complexity of teaching HOTS. Methods: A mix-method approach of data collection and analysis was applied in this study. The data were obtained from 40 VHS teachers, the members of the English teacher association of Wonosobo regency, Central Java, Indonesia by using one set of close-ended questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Findings: The result indicates 1) VHS English teachers have  a very high perception of the importance of teaching HOTS for their students; 2) a high perception of the complexity of applying HOTS resulted from the students’ unreadiness and teachers’ lack of competence in integrating HOT in English class. Conclusion: A very positive perception of the importance of teaching HOTS among VHS teachers. It is in constrast with the high perception of the complexity of applying HOTS. Training HOTS is needed for planning, implementing and assessing HOTS. Keywords: complexity, HOTS, importance, teachers’ perception, vocational high school.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v12.i1.202220

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Storybird in improving junior high school students’ writing skills and creativity in narrative text. The research employed Classroom Action Research involving 32 eighth-grade students at a junior high school in Purworejo, Indonesia. Data were collected through classroom observations and writing tests to monitor students’ progress in narrative writing skills and creativity. The study was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of two meetings. Writing assessments were administered three times: a pre-cycle test, a test in Cycle I, and a test in Cycle II. The results revealed a substantial improvement in students’ writing performance, with mean scores increasing from 56 in the pre-cycle to 65 in Cycle I, and further rising to 87 in Cycle II. In addition, students’ creativity showed progressive enhancement across the cycles, shifting from low creativity in the pre-cycle to creative in Cycle I and highly creative in Cycle II. These findings indicate that the implementation of Storybird effectively enhances both writing skills and creativity in narrative text. The study implies that integrating digital storytelling applications into English language instruction can significantly support students’ skill development and creative expression, particularly in writing.

Abstract

IPS is one of the areas of study at the elementary school level that studies social problems in society. Due to low student interests and learning outcomes, the researchers carried out learning improvements through Classroom Action Research with two learning cycles. The study aims to find out whether the use of Enviromental Learning learning models can enhance students' interest and learning outcomes in the subject matter IPS Nature Effects on Human Activity. The study was conducted with 39 students in the V class. The results of the study in the pre-cycle were only 15 students who obtained a score ≥ KKM or 38% of the score, with an average score of 2.58. In the 1st cycle there was an increase to 29 students or 74% of the number of students, with a mean score of 3.00, and the second cycle experienced another improvement with a grade of 95%, only 2 students who have not reached the KKM score with a average rating of 3.44. It can then be concluded that the use of Enviromental Learning learning model can increase the interest and learning outcomes of students in IPS subjects on the Impact of Natural Surveillance on Human Activity in Class V of SDN 2 Langon Tahunan Jepara.

Abstract

While extensive research has explored literacy policies in Southeast Asia, empirical cross-national comparisons of reading achievement at the junior secondary level remain scarce. This study addresses this gap by comparing the reading comprehension proficiency of eighth-grade students in Indonesia and Malaysia. Employing a comparative quantitative design, the research was conducted at SMP Negeri 6 Purworejo, Indonesia, and SMA Al-Falah Batu Talam, Malaysia, during the 2024/2025 academic year (N = 68). Data were elicited through a validated 25-item multiple-choice test focusing on descriptive and report texts. Independent samples t-test results revealed a significant performance disparity (t(66) = 4.38, p < .001), with Indonesian students (M = 89.53, SD = 11.73) significantly outperforming their Malaysian counterparts (M = 70.24, SD = 22.74). The calculation of Cohen’s d (1.066) further confirmed a large effect size. These findings suggest that higher proficiency in the Indonesian cohort is associated with standardized literacy practices and teacher-led "reading corners," whereas the lower, more heterogeneous performance in the Malaysian religious school is attributed to a "crowded curriculum" and limited English exposure. This study underscores the critical role of institutional focus and contextualized instructional materials in shaping literacy outcomes, providing a baseline for pedagogical interventions in specialized secondary education.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between students’ habit of watching English movies with subtitles and their vocabulary mastery in an EFL context, addressing the limited evidence on how informal audiovisual exposure functions in natural learning settings. A quantitative correlational design was employed, involving 27 students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a 20-item Likert-scale questionnaire to measure viewing habits (Cronbach’s α = .763) and a 25-item multiple-choice vocabulary test to assess vocabulary mastery. The results revealed a positive but weak and statistically non-significant correlation (r = .115; p = .568), indicating that frequent exposure to subtitled movies is not a strong predictor of vocabulary mastery. These findings suggest that informal exposure alone may not lead to substantial vocabulary development without sufficient cognitive engagement. The study highlights the importance of learner involvement and supports the view that the effectiveness of audiovisual input depends on how learners process the input rather than the exposure itself. This study contributes to the understanding of informal language learning by emphasizing the gap between perceived and actual learning outcomes in natural contexts.

Abstract

This study investigates the types of spelling errors found in descriptive texts written by Indonesian EFL learners and examines the linguistic factors contributing to these errors. Using a descriptive qualitative design with an error analysis approach, the study analyzed 39 spelling errors produced by 24 eleventh-grade students at SMA Muhammadiyah Kutoarjo. The errors were classified based on the Surface Strategy Taxonomy, including omission, substitution, addition, and transposition. The findings revealed that omission was the most frequent error type (38.46%), followed by substitution (30.77%), addition (20.51%), and transposition (10.26%). The analysis indicates that students’ spelling difficulties are strongly influenced by the inconsistency of English orthography and interference from Indonesian phonological patterns. The findings also suggest that learners tend to rely on phonetic spelling strategies when dealing with unfamiliar English words. Although limited by a small sample size and a single educational context, this study provides valuable insights into the orthographic challenges experienced by Indonesian EFL learners. The study further offers pedagogical implications for EFL teachers to provide more explicit instruction and targeted feedback on problematic spelling patterns, particularly silent letters and vowel combinations, to improve students’ writing accuracy.

Abstract

Mens Rea is a Latin legal term that translates to “guilty mind”. It refers to defendant’s criminal intent, knowledge, or mental state at the time they commited a crime. Stand-up comedy is a style of comedic performed in person where the comedian speaks directly to the audience with humor, irony, or satirical observations step. Many comedians use their performances to criticize, express opinions and challenge audiences with material thatmakes them question current events instead of just entertaining. This research analyzes how the contextual meaning is constructed from Mens Rea, a stand-up comedy performance by Pandji Pragiwaksono. More specifically, it examines how the interplay of setup and punchline generates comical effects and informs the audience's understanding of the performance as a whole. Stand-up comedy relies not only on lexical meanings but also on contextual meanings. The audiences construct and reconstruct meanings according to the communication situation, sharedbackground knowledge, and sociocultural experience. This study uses a qualitative approach within pragmatic-semantic framework. The data consist of utterances extracted from the Mens Rea performance transcription. Procedures concerning to the data collection and organizations are such as; researchers watch, listen, and documented the utterances by typewriting. Analyzed using data reduction. Categorizing the utterance. Interpretation the data and concluded the results. The findings show four major strategies in building contextual meaning: (1) contextual reframing that shifts audience’s expectations, (2) sociocultural references relying on shared public knowledge, (3) lexical reinterpretation via analogy, ambiguity, and wordplay, (4) pragmatic incongruity that purposefully breaks the assumption established in the setup. These strategies allow for the reconstruction of ordinary political, social, and everyday experiences into humorous discourse while at the same time communicating criticism and social commentary.
