Abstract

Early introduction of English vocabulary is essential for young learners, particularly at the lower primary level where students begin developing basic language awareness. This article reports a community service program entitled “Wordventure: An Engaging Vocabulary Adventure for Elementary School Students,” implemented in Grade 1 of SDIT Qurratu A’yun Wahdah Islamiyah Gorontalo. The program aimed to enhance students’ understanding of basic English vocabulary, specifically names of the days, through a playful and age-appropriate learning approach. The activities were designed using a Total Physical Response–based framework and implemented through games, movement-based activities, and visual flashcards. The program was conducted in a single 40-minute session and evaluated through classroom observation focusing on students’ participation and vocabulary performance. The findings indicate that most students were able to pronounce and sequence the names of the days more accurately and demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm, active engagement, and confidence during the learning process. The program also helped maintain students’ attention and created a positive learning atmosphere. These results suggest that game-based and movement-oriented vocabulary instruction can effectively support meaningful English learning experiences for young learners in primary school contexts.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Skill Academy by Ruang Guru in enhancing students' listening comprehension skills for the TOEFL listening section. Using a quantitative pre-test and post-test design, 15 participants from the English Language Education Study Program underwent four sessions of TOEFL listening preparation through the Skill Academy platform. The study aimed to evaluate the platform’s impact on standardized test preparation and contribute to research on online education. A paired t-test analysis revealed a calculated value of 5.4, surpassing the table value of 2.145 at d_f = 14 and α = 0.05 (two-tailed), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. This indicated a significant improvement in participants' scores after the intervention. The findings suggest that Skill Academy effectively enhanced students' listening skills for the TOEFL, proving its value as an exam preparation tool. This research underscores the potential of online learning platforms in improving targeted test skills. Future studies could examine the long-term effects of such programs and compare different platforms to optimize TOEFL preparation strategies

Abstract

This study examined the level and categories of English reading anxiety among students of the English Language Education Study Program at Universitas Negeri Gorontalo, class of 2023. Using a quantitative descriptive approach, the English Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Inventory (EFLRAI) by Zoghi (2012) was administered to 108 students through Google Forms. The instrument measured three categories of anxiety: top-down, bottom-up, and classroom reading anxiety. Data were analyzed using percentage formulas to classify responses into low, moderate, and high levels. Findings indicated that most students experienced moderate anxiety (56.48%), followed by high (37.04%), and only a small number reported low anxiety (6.48%). Bottom-up anxiety was the most dominant (96.30%), mainly due to vocabulary, while grammar had less impact. Top-down anxiety was linked to general reading ability (93.52%) rather than background & cultural knowledge (3.70%). Classroom reading anxiety was least significant (1.83%). These results highlight vocabulary mastery and general reading ability as major factors, suggesting the need for improved vocabulary teaching and reading strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of inclusive education at the elementary school level from a teacher’s perspective, especially English language instruction. The analysis focus on four key indicators: the availability of instructional materials, the preparedness of human resources, institutional support, and parental involvement. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, using semi-structured interviews with a second-grade English language teacher at SD Laboratorium, Universitas Negeri Gorontalo, an inclusive elementary school located in Gorontalo, Indonesia. Findings reveal that while learning materials for students with special educational needs are available, they still require further adaptation and creativity on the part of the teacher. Regarding human resources, the teacher has received basic training in inclusive education but continues to face challenges, including the limited availability of special education support staff. Institutional support is evident through training programs and inclusive policies, although budget constraints remain a significant obstacle. Parental involvement is very active, contributing positively to the continuity of learning at home. This study emphasizes the importance of collaborative efforts among teachers, schools, government, and parents in constructing an effective inclusive education environment, particularly in the context of English language learning for students with special needs.

Abstract

Aphasia, a language disorder resulting from brain damage, significantly impacts both language production and comprehension. This paper reviews the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying aphasia, with a focus on expressive and receptive language deficits across different subtypes. In Broca's aphasia, individuals exhibit non-fluent, grammatically impaired speech, while Wernicke's aphasia is characterized by fluent but semantically meaningless speech. Conduction aphasia, a selective production deficit, highlights the role of the arcuate fasciculus in speech. The review also explores comprehension deficits, particularly in syntactic parsing, as seen in Broca’s aphasia. Recent neuroanatomical research has moved beyond the traditional Broca-Wernicke model, demonstrating the involvement of a broader network, including cortical and subcortical regions, in language processing. Assessment tools such as the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised (WAB-R) and the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination (BDAE) provide valuable insights into aphasia diagnosis and profile. The paper concludes by discussing modern therapeutic approaches like Constraint-Induced Language Therapy (CILT), Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT), and Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA), which target specific cognitive-linguistic impairments. This review contributes to the understanding of aphasia as a complex, multifaceted disorder, emphasizing its diagnosis, neural bases, and treatment strategies.
