Abstract

This research aimed to investigate the frequency and reasons for using fillers during proposal seminar presentations among students in the English Department. The study involved five students who took the proposal seminar exam on March 18, 2022. Using a mixed-method approach, data were collected and analyzed to identify the types and frequency of fillers used, as well as the underlying reasons for their use. The findings revealed that the frequency of unlexicalized fillers was higher (172 occurrences, average 74.78) compared to lexicalized fillers (31 occurrences, average 13.48). The main reasons for using fillers included nervousness, forgetting what to say, reflexive habits, and difficulty finding the right words. These results highlight the need for students to improve their speaking skills and practice more to minimize the use of fillers during presentations. Additionally, it is suggested that lecturers focus on reducing the use of fillers in speaking classes to enhance students' performance and confidence in public speaking. This research provides valuable insights for educators in developing more effective teaching strategies to improve students' oral communication skills.

Abstract

This study investigated the impact of ChatGPT as a guided thinking partner on ninth-grade students’ recount text writing skill at SMP Negeri 2 Suwawa. Although previous studies have shown that ChatGPT can support writing instruction, limited classroom-based quantitative evidence has examined its supervised use as a thinking partner rather than as an automatic text generator in junior secondary EFL recount writing. Grounded in sociocultural scaffolding theory, this study positioned ChatGPT as guided cognitive and linguistic support during idea generation, outlining, drafting, revising, and editing. A quantitative pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed with 30 students selected through purposive sampling. Students’ recount texts were assessed using an analytic rubric covering structure, grammar accuracy, vocabulary use, and coherence. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk test, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test, and effect size calculation in IBM SPSS Statistics 27. The findings showed that the mean score increased from 72.33 in the pre-test to 85.83 in the post-test, with improvements across all writing indicators, especially coherence and text structure. The Wilcoxon test indicated a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores (Z = -4.102, p < .001), with a large effect size (r = .75). The study concludes that ChatGPT can support recount text writing when it is used ethically, reflectively, and under teacher supervision as pedagogical scaffolding rather than as a substitute for students’ own writing process.

Abstract

The problems of waste are not only in Indonesia, but throughout the world. Waste production continues to increase along with population growth, changes in consumption patterns and people's lifestyles. This article discusses efforts to improve infrastructure quality through sustainable waste management with education about the importance of protecting the environment at SDN 11 Batudaa Pantai, Lamu Village. This research aims to increase environmental awareness among students through Real Work Lecture (KKN) activities. The method used includes three stages: preparation, implementation of educational and practical programs, and evaluation. Activities include education about types of waste, including making crafts from waste and waste management practices, including making crafts from organic and inorganic waste. The results show that students initially did not understand the types of waste and the 3R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). However, after education, they showed better understanding and increased motivation to keep the environment clean. It is hoped that this program can become an example for sustainable waste management and improving environmental quality in the future.

Abstract

This study explores the experiences of eighth-grade students at SMPN 1 Telaga Biru in using the Cake application to enrich their English vocabulary. Qualitative research design was employed, involving 10 Grade 8 students selected purposively based on their vocabulary levels, experience using the Cake application, and willingness to participate in in-depth interviews. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that 8 of the 10 participants perceived the audiovisual features, including videos, subtitles, pronunciation practice, and interactive exercises, as making vocabulary learning more enjoyable. Seven participants considered the application easy to use, while four explicitly reported perceived gradual improvement in their vocabulary. Students also highlighted contextualized conversations and repeated exposure as helpful for understanding and remembering vocabulary. However, three participants reported unstable internet connections, while other challenges included difficulty understanding fast speech, inconsistent learning habits, and distracting learning environments. Overall, the findings suggest that Cake can serve as a useful supplementary medium for contextual and flexible vocabulary learning. However, its effectiveness depends on supporting conditions such as teacher guidance, internet access, and students’ self-regulation.
