Abstract

This study aims to determine the Utilization of Word Wall Media in Improving Reading Mastery of Class X TAB Students at SMK Negeri 3 Tanjung Selor. This research is a type of class action research. Sampling techniques are observation, interview, questionnaire and documentation. Data analysis is quantitative analysis with an experimental approach. The results showed that the pretest scores ranged from 40 to 75 with an average score of 60.97. Meanwhile, posttest scores range from 70 to 100. Thus, it can be concluded that vocabulary mastery increases significantly after using Word Wall Media and the analysis results of this research show a significant difference in students' vocabulary proficiency in reading descriptive texts when taught using word wall media compared to when taught without media in class X at SMK Negeri 3 Tanjung Selor. This can be seen from the obtained data, The t-value of -30.68 with a p-value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000 shows that the difference between the pretest and post-test scores is statistically significant. Since the p-value is less than 0.05, we can conclude that the improvement in vocabulary is not due to chance.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is essential in ESL/EFL teaching, yet many students in Indonesia face difficulties in comprehending English passages. This study aims to investigate the strategies used by English language teachers to address these challenges. The research problem focuses on identifying effective strategies to improve students' reading comprehension skills. A qualitative research method was used, involving semi-structured interviews with four high school English teachers in Indonesia who were purposively selected. Data were collected in January 2024 through interviews conducted at different times and locations. The data were analyzed thematically to identify recurring challenges and effective strategies. The findings revealed that teachers faced significant barriers, such as students' limited vocabulary and difficulties with long texts. To address these issues, teachers used strategies such as selecting passages based on students' interests, using skimming and scanning techniques to quickly identify key ideas and specific information, and using mind mapping to help students organize and understand complex information. In conclusion, the study highlighted the importance of adaptive teaching methods in overcoming reading comprehension challenges. The suggested strategies - interest-based texts, skimming, scanning and mind mapping - were found to be effective in improving students' reading skills. Further research is recommended to investigate the long-term effects of these strategies and to develop additional methods for improving reading comprehension.

Abstract

This research investigated the effectiveness of Blookets, a gamified learning platform, in improving EFL students’ vocabulary learning. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a mixed-methods approach. The research collected quantitative data through vocabulary pre- and post-tests comprising 40 multiple-choice items, which were analyzed using SPSS version 30. Qualitative data were obtained through semi-structured interviews and were thus analyzed thematically. The results indicated that students in the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher vocabulary scores than those in the control group, mainly due to Blooket’s multimodal features such as real-time feedback and spaced repetition. Additionally, students expressed positive perceptions of the platform, highlighting enhanced enjoyment, practicality, reinforcement, motivation, and positive recommendations. These findings suggest that integrating a gamified learning platform like Blookets into vocabulary instruction offers a practical and engaging strategy for promoting language learning outcomes in secondary education.

Abstract

Limited Liability Companies as legal entities can operate in the banking sector. In its development, many companies have merged in the banking industry to increase activity and respond to economic conditions. However, banking mergers may not always be successful in their implementation, potentially harming customers. First, this article's problem formulation is procedures and regulations regarding limited liability company mergers in the banking business sector. And secondly, legal protection for customers after implementing a company merger in Indonesia. The research method in this article is legal research, with a statutory and regulatory approach and a conceptual approach. As for the results of this article, procedures and regulations regarding limited liability company mergers in the banking business sector are regulated in the Perseroan Terbatas Law, PP 28/1999, and OJK Regulation Number 6/POJK.07/2022. Legal protection for customers after a banking company merger in Indonesia is regulated in the provisions of PP 28/1999, OJK Regulation Number 41/POJK.03/2019, and OJK Regulation Number 6/POJK.07/2022. These provisions contain the legal ratio that bank merger efforts must consider customers' interests and not cause customer losses. Customers are also given alternative options for making objections or taking legal action if they feel disadvantaged and object to the company merger. Thus, what causes customer losses is actually at the implementation level, namely the legal structure (company organs and bank employees) that does not implement the provisions as regulated and the legal culture of society that does not understand the consequences of banking company mergers.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the quality of English reading comprehension test instruments used in informal learning, especially as English literacy tests. With a quantitative approach, the analysis was carried out using the Rasch model through the Quest program on 30 multiple-choice questions given to 30 grade IX students from informal educational institutions in Bantul. The results of the analysis showed that although all questions were included in the fit category for the Rasch model, the level of reliability was relatively low, that was 0.52 for items and 0.39 for participants. In addition, 13.3% of the questions showed inconsistent results (misfit), this means that there is inconsistency in the results and quality of the questions that need to be improved. The analysis of the level of difficulty also showed that there were questions that were too easy or too difficult. These findings highlight the importance of revising the test items and the need to increase the number of participants and items to obtain more accurate measurement results. This study also provides practical implications regarding the need for continuous and planned instrument development in the context of informal education, to provide valid and reliable evaluation tools to measure students' literacy skills.

Abstract

Previously, educators created a multiage classroom to address the growing age gap within a class and the unresolved issue of teacher shortage. However, some schools in specific countries currently use this system, which provides significant benefits and positive developments to their fall-behind students or classes. This study conducted peer tutoring to address speaking issues in the classroom and bridge the gap in students' basic English knowledge. Besides, it is eager to improve students' speaking skills in a multiage EFL classroom and enrich literature in non-formal education. This study used McNiff and Whitehead's (2006) theory cycle for classroom action research: observation, reflection, action, evaluation, and modification. Data were collected through tests and interviews, and then the questionnaire was added and analysed using the NVivo 12 Pro application. The finding revealed that peer tutoring improved the multiage students' speaking proficiency in their fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. In a non-academic setting, peer tutoring effectively boosted the students' self-confidence and collaboration and demonstrated grade-level skills or accelerated learning in the class.

Abstract

Students’ English narrative-writing skills remain weak, yet writing competence is essential in today’s global context. This study investigated the effectiveness of the Dictogloss technique for improving students’ narrative writing through a mixed-method classroom action research design involving eleventh-grade students at SMK N 1 Tanjung Selor. Data were gathered from observations, students’ worksheets, and writing tests, and analyzed using direct observation notes, self-assessment, and an analytical writing rubric. Findings revealed consistent gains across the five key aspects of writing—content, organization, vocabulary, grammar, and mechanics. From the pre-test to Cycle 1 and Cycle 2, students’ average scores steadily increased, and by the second cycle 34 students (91.2 %) surpassed the passing mark of 75, demonstrating a substantial improvement in overall writing performance. These results confirm the strong positive impact of the Dictogloss method on students’ narrative-writing ability. Pedagogically, teachers are encouraged to integrate Dictogloss as a regular classroom practice by providing structured note-taking activities, guiding pair or group reconstruction of texts, and offering focused feedback on content development, text structure, and precise vocabulary use. Such targeted strategies help students strengthen listening, collaborative, and writing skills simultaneously, ensuring more meaningful engagement and measurable progress in narrative writing. Overall, the research underscores Dictogloss as an integrative method that enhances not only writing accuracy but also collaboration and higher-order thinking skills highly relevant for vocational students preparing for the demands of a global workforce. The implication of the study is that students are encouraged to actively engage in the Dictogloss activities, as these activities help improve writing by developing listening, note-taking, and collaborative skills. It is important to focus on the text's content, structure, and vocabulary when working in pairs, as this will enhance their writing skills.
