Abstract

The strategy of refusal has been carried out in many ways. Since it deals with the strategy done through language, the result portrays culture which the language used. As English in Indonesia is still as foreign language, the teaching learning process does not present the actual use of the expression. Since the English taught in Indonesian Language way, the learners use the English expression in Indonesian culture. It will give impact to the language the learners use. They use English but in Indonesian language way of thinking. The condition or the context when the utterances produced will give different meanings. Understanding meaning from utterances is a rather difficult. In some utterance, the meaning is not conveyed clearly in the structure of the sentences but it is hidden. The context will help the listener understand the hidden meaning of an utterance. To understand the context, movie is chosen as the media. Movie is believed gives more advantages than other media. It can give good effect on the students’ language acquisition as stated by Gardner (1984) and Lazear (1992) cited in Lynch (2006) that an audio-visual approach is highly effective in both lowering learner affective filters (Krashen-Terrell, 1984) and in language acquisition and learning.

Abstract

The aim of this research conducted at one of the public universities in Banten was to investigate the perception of second-semester students in the English Department regarding the features of the Tophonetics application in improving their pronunciation of fricatives. Employing a phenomenological qualitative research design, the researchers selected five participants through purposive sampling, focusing on students who had experience using Tophonetics and were willing to participate. Data was collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews conducted via online Zoom meetings, utilizing three main open-ended questions to delve deeper into participants' experiences. The obtained data was analyzed using the Stevick-Colaizzi-Kenn technique, as described by Moustakas (1994). The analysis revealed four themes, including positive perception, negative perception, the features of Tophonetics, and the obstacles of using Tophonetics. The findings suggest that students in the English Department perceive Tophonetics positively in terms of improving their pronunciation of fricative sounds, highlighting the potential benefits of integrating this application into language teaching and learning practices.

Abstract

Speaking skills in English language learning are one of the language competencies that need to be developed in order to broaden students’ knowledge and understanding. These skills enable students to acquire, process, and convey information and knowledge that are useful and applicable in their daily lives. The Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) model is a learning method expected to help students master English vocabulary pronunciation and learn how to speak English independently. The general objective of this study was to determine the effect of implementing the STAD model on improving students’ English speaking skills and to examine whether the implementation of the STAD model could enhance English speaking skills at SDIT Al-Hikmah. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental research method. The research design applied was the Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The sample consisted of 49 fifth-grade students of SDIT Al-Hikmah in the 2024/2025 academic year. The findings of this study reveal that the implementation of the STAD (Student Teams Achievement Divisions) learning model effectively improved students English speaking skills. The results indicate a difference in the mean learning outcomes between the experimental and control groups. Based on the t-test analysis, the experimental group obtained a t-value of -2.45, while the control group obtained a t-value of -3.47, compared to the critical t-value of 2.01. In addition, the average N-Gain score of the experimental group was 0.46, which was higher than that of the control group (0.37). These findings suggest that the STAD learning model contributes more effectively to the improvement of students' speaking skills than conventional learning methods.
