Abstract

This research aims to critically evaluate high school Indonesian language textbooks from the perspective of developing students' creative thinking. The type of research in this study is qualitative. The research design used is a case study. Primary data was obtained directly from Indonesian language textbooks used in high school. Secondary data includes related documents, such as curriculum, textbook development guidelines, and relevant academic literature. The data collection technique is an intensive reading technique. The data analysis technique in this research involves several stages. The first stage is transcription and organizing data. The second stage is thematic analysis. The third stage is data triangulation. The fourth stage is interpretation and preparation of the report. The research results show that this book has been prepared in accordance with national curriculum standards and covers various basic competencies. Several aspects still need to be improved to better support the development of students' creative thinking. The tasks are dominated by mechanical activities, so they do not fully support the development of critical and creative thinking. Apart from that, the relevance of the material to actual issues and students' real lives is still lacking.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of Script-Based Improvisation on students’ speaking achievement at SMA Muhammadiyah Pangsid. The research compared the speaking performance of students taught using Script-Based Improvisation and those taught using the conventional memorization technique. A quantitative approach was employed, with two groups of eleventh-grade students selected through Cluster Random Sampling. The experimental group was taught using Script-Based Improvisation, while the control group utilized the memorizing dialogue technique. After six sessions of treatment, both groups were administered a post-test to assess their speaking abilities. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, with the results showing that the experimental group outperformed the control group. The mean score for the experimental group was higher, and t-test analysis revealed a significant difference between the two groups. This indicates that Script-Based Improvisation significantly improved students' speaking achievement compared to the conventional memorization method.

Abstract

Microteaching plays a significant role in enhancing the teaching skills of prospective teachers, particularly in the Professional Teacher Education Program (PPG) at UMS Rappang. This method offers a structured and systematic approach to prepare future educators for real classroom settings by simulating teaching experiences in a controlled environment. Through microteaching, participants practice specific teaching skills such as lesson planning, classroom management, and effective communication. They also receive direct feedback from peers and mentors, allowing them to reflect and improve continuously. The implementation of microteaching at UMS Rappang has shown to boost pedagogical competence, confidence, and readiness among prospective teachers, ultimately contributing to the improvement of educational quality.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop descriptive text learning materials based on local wisdom for seventh grade students of MTs Negeri 1 Manado. To make the research more focused, the problem formulation is limited to three main issues: (1) what are the learning needs of descriptive texts in seventh grade at MTs Negeri 1 Manado; (2) what is the form and design of local wisdom–based learning materials in descriptive text learning; and (3) how effective is the implementation of local wisdom–based learning materials in descriptive text learning. This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using Sugiyono’s model, which consists of ten steps, ranging from identifying potentials and problems to mass production. The research subjects included material experts, media experts, and seventh grade students. Data collection instruments consisted of questionnaires, tests, observations, and interviews. The data were analyzed descriptively to determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the product. The results of the study show that: (1) the developed learning materials meet the eligibility criteria in terms of content, language, presentation, and graphics, categorized as very feasible; (2) the local wisdom–based learning materials of North Sulawesi attracted students’ learning interest and facilitated their understanding of the structure and linguistic features of descriptive texts; and (3) the effectiveness test results revealed an improvement in students’ ability to write descriptive texts, with N-gain values falling into the medium to high categories. This study concludes that local wisdom–based learning materials are effective in improving students’ descriptive writing skills while simultaneously instilling the values of local wisdom in learners.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the role playing and presentation methods on the speaking skills of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 14 Batarang, Maiwa District, Enrekang Regency. The research used a quantitative approach with a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The independent variables in this study are the role playing method (X1) and the presentation method (X2), while the dependent variable is speaking ability (Y). The subjects were 10 students. The instrument used was a speaking skills test administered before and after the treatment. The data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially using normality tests and paired sample t-tests. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ speaking skills after the application of role playing, presentation, and the combination of both methods. The average pretest score of 49.80 increased to 78.70 after role playing, 80.70 after presentation, and 84.00 after the combination. The paired sample t-test revealed a significance value (Sig.) < 0.05 for all treatments, indicating that the differences between pretest and posttest scores were statistically significant. The combination method produced the highest and most consistent improvement in students' speaking performance.It can be concluded that both the role playing and presentation methods, whether applied separately or in combination, have a positive effect on improving students’ speaking abilities. The combined approach is considered the most effective in enhancing students’ confidence, expression, and structured speaking skills.
