Abstract

This quantitative study investigated the impact of ChatGPT-assisted free writing on idea development in letter writing among seven 11th-grade students at SMA NAM IBS over six weeks. Using a single-group pre-test-post-test design, five assessments were conducted: a pre-test, three ChatGPT-assisted exercises, and a post-test. Descriptive statistics showed an increase in mean scores from pre-test (M = 78.43) to post-test (M = 86.00), indicating improvement. However, repeated measures ANOVA showed no significant difference (F(4, 24) = 1.43, p 0.05). This may have been due to small sample size, non-normal data, sphericity violations, and high within-subject variability. Despite the lack of statistical significance, the upward trend suggested potential benefits of ChatGPT. Further research with larger samples, improved rubrics, and adjusted statistical methods was suggested to validate ChatGPT’s effectiveness in enhancing idea development.Keywords: ChatGPT, Free Writing, Idea Development, Letter Writing

Abstract

This study examines thematic progression patterns in English economic articles on Batamnews.com, focusing on how themes and rhemes are organized to ensure textual coherence and effectively convey economic information. Employing Halliday and Hasan’s functional approach, themes are categorized into topical, interpersonal, and textual types. The research adopts a qualitative method, analyzing the introduction sections of seven articles using systematic segmentation into clauses and classification of thematic progression patterns into re-iteration, zigzag, and multiple-theme patterns. The results reveal that the re-iteration pattern is the most frequently employed (28 instances), followed by the zigzag pattern (26 instances), and the multiple-theme pattern (7 instances). Thematic progression patterns significantly contribute to enhancing the coherence and clarity of the articles, allowing economic concepts to be effectively communicated. The findings underscore the strategic role of thematic organization in digital journalism, providing practical insights for journalists and scholars in understanding how economic information is structured and adapted for diverse audiences. This study contributes to linguistics and media studies by offering a deeper understanding of the interaction between thematic patterns and the communication of complex economic topics in the digital age.

Latar belakang: Pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di ranah nonformal masih menghadapi tantangan berupa rendahnya motivasi, rasa percaya diri, serta keterbatasan konsentrasi anak. Program ini bertujuan meningkatkan partisipasi dan keberanian anak dalam menggunakan bahasa Inggris melalui pendekatan interaktif di Sanggar Belajar Tunas Harapan. Metode: yang diterapkan mencakup permainan, lagu, aktivitas fisik, dan media visual, dengan mahasiswa berperan sebagai fasilitator. Hasil: kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan keterlibatan secara signifikan. Dari 25–30 peserta tiap pertemuan, sekitar 17–20 anak (65–70%) aktif menjawab pertanyaan, menunjukkan perubahan positif dibanding kondisi awal yang cenderung pasif. Lingkungan belajar juga menjadi lebih menyenangkan, kolaboratif, suportif, dan secara konsisten mendorong tumbuhnya rasa percaya diri serta solidaritas antarpeserta.

Kesimpulan: ini menegaskan efektivitas metode interaktif dalam mendukung pembelajaran nonformal yang bermakna. Rekomendasi ke depan adalah memperluas variasi media ajar dan memastikan kesinambungan kerja sama dengan mitra lokal.
