Abstract

Continuous improvement of instructional competency among in-service English teachers constitutes a strategic imperative in advancing the caliber of language education at the secondary level. Grounded in a community service research framework, this study investigates the delivery and outcomes of a structured vocabulary teaching training program organized through the MGMP network for Senior High School English teachers in the city of Pekanbaru, Riau Province. The training was conducted on Saturday, 6 June 2026, at SMA Negeri 8 Pekanbaru. The overarching goal was to examine whether participation in this training produced measurable gains in teachers' capacity to implement vocabulary instruction that supports the development and assessment of students' oral communicative performance. A pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed, engaging 32 teachers drawn from various Senior High Schools across the city of Pekanbaru. Multiple data sources were utilized, comprising a validated knowledge assessment instrument (Cronbach's α = 0.87), structured classroom observation checklists, and individual semi-structured interviews. Statistical analysis revealed a substantial mean improvement of 23.38 points between pre- and post-training assessments (t(31) = 14.67, p 0.001; Cohen's d = 1.94). Observational records indicated that the majority of participants (87.5%) successfully transitioned from isolated vocabulary drills toward the integration of lexical learning within task-based oral communication activities. Thematic patterns extracted from interview responses highlighted three salient dimensions of professional growth: heightened instructional self-efficacy, expanded assessment design capability, and greater congruence between training content and pedagogical practice. These results underscore the value of institutionalizing vocabulary-focused pedagogical training within MGMP structures as an enduring mechanism for elevating English language teacher professionalism in the regional context.

Abstract

Kemampuan berbicara (speaking skill) dalam Bahasa Inggris sangat dipengaruhi oleh penguasaan kosakata (vocabulary) peserta didik, sebab keterbatasan kosakata sering menjadi penyebab utama siswa kesulitan mengungkapkan gagasan secara lisan. Persoalan yang ditemukan pada sejumlah guru Bahasa Inggris jenjang Sekolah Menengah Atas (SMA) di Provinsi Riau adalah belum beragamnya teknik pengajaran kosakata yang digunakan di kelas, ditambah lemahnya kemampuan guru dalam menyusun instrumen penilaian (asesmen) keterampilan berbicara yang terukur dan dapat dipertanggungjawabkan secara akademik. Menyikapi kondisi tersebut, tim pelaksana merancang program pengabdian masyarakat berupa pendampingan dan pelatihan pengajaran kosakata bagi guru-guru yang tergabung dalam Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP) Bahasa Inggris jenjang SMA, dengan harapan dapat memperkuat kualitas asesmen keterampilan berbicara siswa. Program ini diselenggarakan pada Sabtu, 6 Juni 2026, berlokasi di SMA Negeri 8 Pekanbaru, dan dihadiri oleh para guru Bahasa Inggris SMA dari wilayah Kota Pekanbaru. Pelaksanaannya mengikuti empat rangkaian kegiatan, yaitu penjajakan kebutuhan peserta, pemaparan konsep melalui ceramah dan tanya jawab, praktik langsung (workshop) merancang teknik pengajaran kosakata sekaligus rubrik penilaian berbicara, serta pengukuran hasil belajar melalui pre-test dan post-test. Setelah kegiatan berlangsung, terlihat peningkatan capaian peserta baik dalam memahami cara mengajarkan kosakata secara kontekstual maupun dalam menyusun instrumen penilaian keterampilan berbicara, sebagaimana tergambar dari skor post-test yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan skor pre-test, dan didukung pula oleh tanggapan positif para peserta. Program semacam ini diharapkan dapat dijadikan model pendampingan berkelanjutan bagi forum MGMP Bahasa Inggris guna mendorong perbaikan mutu pembelajaran dan penilaian keterampilan berbicara siswa SMA di wilayah Riau.
