Abstract

Berdasarkan analisis permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh mitra dalam hal ini dosen dan mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris Universitas Muhammadiyah Palu adalah rendahnya kemampuan menulis mahasiswa. Salah satu faktor penyebab kondisi tersebut adalah kurangnya umpan balik yang optimal dari dosen terhadap hasil penilaian keterampilan menulis mahasiswa secara sistematis dan berkesinambungan dikarenakan minimnya waktu yang dibutuhkan saat proses pembelajaran di kelas. Padahal, pemberian umpan balik sangat penting bagi mahasiswa untuk berlatih menulis secara sistematis dan berkesinambungan. Kemajuan teknology dapat digunakan untuk memaksimalkan pemberian umpan balik kepada siswa. Oleh karena itu, untuk mendorong dosen agar rutin memberikan umpan balik terhadap hasil karya mahasiswa, maka program pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini memberikan desiminasi kepada dosen dan mahasiswa tentang cara memanfaatkan platform pembelajaran berbasis elektronik yaitu dengan menggunakan aplikasi G-Docs. Desiminasi ini terdiri dari tiga tahap yaitu; persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi. Program ini bertujuan untuk melatih dosen dan mahasiswa dalam memberikan umpan balik melalui G-Docs. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi, dosen dan mahasiswa memberikan respon positif terhadap penggunaan G-Docs dalam memberikan umpan balik. Respon positif juga diberikan terhadap program pelatihan G-Docs.Abstract. Based on the study of the issue experienced by partners in this case, both instructors and learners of the English Language Education Program at one private institution in Palu City is the low students’ writing skills. The absence of constructive and sustained feedback from teachers on students' writing skills resulting from the limited amount of time required throughout the learning process in class is one of the elements aggravating this condition. Actually, a student's capacity to practice writing methodically and consistently depends much on receiving feedback. Modern technologies allow one to maximize the availability of comments to pupils. Thus, this community service program offers instructors and students distribution on an electronic-based learning platform, especially using the G-Docs application, encouraging lecturers to submit comments on student work consistently. Three stages characterize this sharing: planning, execution, and assessment. This initiative seeks to equip teachers and students to use G-Docs for feedback. The evaluation results showed that teachers and students responded favorably about using G-Docs for feedback. The G-Docs training program has received excellent comments.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the effect of self-assessment on grammar teaching and learning, by analyzing how students identify and correct errors related to the use of simple past tense in their own work. A quantitative approach was used in this study by using a quasi-experimental design. The sample was selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through a test, which was divided into two: pre-test and post-test. The population in this study was the ninth grade of MTs Muhammadiyah Al-Haq Palu, where class IX C was the experimental group (n=21) and class IX B was the control group (n=18). Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test due to the study data was not normally distributed. The results demonstrated that there was an increase in learning outcomes in the use of simple past tense in the experimental group, compared to the control group. It was shown by calculations using the SPSS 24 software system where the Sig (2-tailed) value = 0.000 < 0.05, which means that the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted. In summary, this study indicated that self-assessment has a significant impact on enhancing students’ ability in simple past tense. The findings offer a new perspective for students, teachers and future researchers in enhancing English language teaching and learning.

Abstract

This research examines how well eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 7 Sigi improve their reading comprehension skills through Project-Based Learning (PjBL). Reading comprehension is one of the most important skills for students learning English as a foreign language (EFL). However, the lack of vocabulary, low motivation, and inefficient teaching strategies cause problems for many students. PjBL is used as a student-centered learning strategy to address this issue. This research applied a quasi-experimental approach, with a control group learning conventionally and an experimental group using PjBL. Pre-tests and post-tests were used to gather information about students' reading comprehension development. The average score of the experimental group increased from 34.37 to 49.28, showing a substantial improvement, while the control group increased from 35.82 to 46.38. A p-value of 0.001, which is less than 0.05, was obtained through statistical analysis using an independent sample T-test, indicating that the improvement in the experimental group is statistically significant. This study shows that PjBL can improve students' reading comprehension by encouraging active learning, collaboration, and critical thinking. Based on this, the researchers recommend applying PjBL in English language teaching to create a more engaging and meaningful learning experience.

Abstract

The current EFL curriculum for high schools in Indonesia demands integrating cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains in assessment. Therefore, teachers must consider these domains in designing assessment instruments and use them, including in a full-online class. In this type of class, they must choose effective methods with principled eclecticism that meet the assessment principles. This study examines the teachers assessment process, from constructing the assessment devices to implementing the test in virtual classrooms. The qualitative research approach was used to explore the online-based assessments involving 16 English teachers recruited through convenience sampling techniques. Accordingly, the data were collected using virtual semi-structured interviews through a WhatsApp call. The data were analysed descriptively through a thematic analysis integrated with an interactive technique to locate and identify common patterns of meaning in a data set. The findings show that teachers used several methods to design their tests in the planning stage, considering several aspects based on the eclectic approach principles for effective assessment practices. However, teachers need more assessment literacy regarding their knowledge of test quality. This research employed qualitative data from a small number of teachers, so future studies that include more teachers from different locations and consider different viewpoints, including those of students, families, and policymakers, on how to evaluate student achievement virtually are recommended.
