Abstract

ABSTRACT The low level of elementary school students’ mastery of English grammatical structures, particularly comparative degrees, indicates the need for the implementation of more interactive and student-centered learning strategies. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of cooperative learning strategies in improving students’ understanding of comparative degrees among fifth-grade students at Fathona Islamic School Palembang. The study employed a quasi-experimental design using a pre-test and post-test non-equivalent control group model, involving 30 students who were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received instruction through cooperative learning strategies, while the control group was taught using conventional teaching methods. The results of the analysis showed that the average post-test score of the experimental group (85.4) was higher than that of the control group (72.8). An independent samples t-test confirmed a statistically significant difference between the two groups (p < 0.05). In addition to improving learning outcomes, cooperative learning was also found to enhance students’ active engagement in discussions and group work. These findings conclude that cooperative learning strategies are effective in improving students’ understanding of comparative degrees while also strengthening motivation and active participation in English language learning at the elementary school level. ABSTRAK Rendahnya penguasaan siswa sekolah dasar terhadap struktur tata bahasa Inggris, khususnya comparative degree, menunjukkan perlunya penerapan strategi pembelajaran yang lebih interaktif dan berorientasi pada keterlibatan siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji efektivitas strategi pembelajaran kooperatif dalam meningkatkan pemahaman comparative degree pada siswa kelas V di Sekolah Islam Fathona Palembang. Penelitian menggunakan desain quasi-eksperimental dengan model pre-test dan post-test non-equivalent control group, melibatkan 30 siswa yang terbagi ke dalam kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol. Kelompok eksperimen memperoleh pembelajaran dengan strategi kooperatif, sementara kelompok kontrol diajar menggunakan metode pembelajaran konvensional. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa nilai rata-rata post-test kelompok eksperimen (85,4) lebih tinggi dibandingkan kelompok kontrol (72,8). Uji independent samples t-test mengonfirmasi adanya perbedaan yang signifikan secara statistik antara kedua kelompok (p < 0,05). Selain meningkatkan hasil belajar, pembelajaran kooperatif juga terbukti mendorong keterlibatan aktif siswa dalam diskusi dan kerja kelompok. Temuan ini menyimpulkan bahwa strategi pembelajaran kooperatif efektif dalam meningkatkan pemahaman comparative degree sekaligus memperkuat motivasi dan partisipasi siswa dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris di sekolah dasar.

Abstract

This study explores the application of Krashen’s Input Hypothesis (i + 1) in enhancing elementary school students’ speaking skills through verb-based learning. The focus is to examine how comprehensible input supports the acquisition of English verbs and their use in simple sentences. The research employed a descriptive qualitative design involving 27 third grade students at SD Manggala Palembang. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and speaking performance tasks. Findings indicate that when students were first introduced to verbs through songs and actions (e.g., run, jump, sing) and later guided to use them in sentences (e.g., “We are running”, “My teacher is teaching English”), their confidence and fluency improved significantly. The study concludes that Krashen’s Input Hypothesis effectively promotes natural speaking development by offering meaningful, understandable, and enjoyable language exposure.

Abstract

This research examines for students studying English as a second language, mastering grammar—especially the simple past tense—is crucial. Nonetheless, a lot of students still struggle to write and speak in the past tense accurately. The purpose of this study is to examine how SMP 21 Palembang eighth-grade students acquire the simple past tense. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method supported by quantitative data. The participants were 28 students from class VIII in the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through questionnaires, classroom observations, and interviews. The results revealed that students applied three major types of strategies: cognitive strategies (memorizing verbs and practicing exercises), metacognitive strategies (planning and evaluating their learning), and social strategies (asking for help from teachers or peers). Cognitive strategies were the most dominant (53.6%), followed by social strategies (28.6%), and metacognitive strategies (17.8%). The results show that students' comprehension of the simple past tense was improved when they combined these tactics. The findings indicate that most students rely on repetition and memorization rather than contextual understanding, suggesting the need for more communicative and meaningful grammar instruction.

Abstract

Teaching the tense–aspect system has long posed challenges for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners due to its complex relationship between form, meaning, and use. Traditional grammar instruction in many EFL contexts often emphasizes rule memorization rather than meaningful application, resulting in learners’ limited ability to use tense forms accurately in communication. This study explores the integration of direct learning strategies—such as memory, cognitive, and compensation strategies—into the teaching of the tense–aspect system to enhance students’ grammatical competence and communicative accuracy. Using a mixed-method design, the research involved classroom implementation of direct strategies followed by tests, questionnaires, and observations. The findings indicate that learners who were taught using direct strategies showed significant improvement in recognizing and applying tense–aspect forms correctly. Moreover, students reported increased motivation, better retention, and greater confidence in using grammar communicatively. The results suggest that integrating direct strategies provides an effective framework for shifting grammar instruction from teacher-centered rule learning to student-centered strategy-based learning. It is recommended that EFL teachers combine direct strategies with communicative activities to promote both accuracy and fluency in language use.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly reshaping educational practices worldwide, particularly in language learning. This mixed-methods study investigates English teachers’ perceptions and readiness toward AI integration in junior high schools in Ogan Ilir, South Sumatra, Indonesia, an under-resourced and largely rural context that remains underrepresented in global AI-in-education research. Guided by the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework and technology acceptance perspectives, the study examines how teachers’ technological competence, pedagogical readiness, and institutional conditions interact to shape AI adoption in English language teaching (ELT). Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations and analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic triangulation. The findings indicate that teachers hold generally positive view on AI and recognize its potential to enhance instructional effectiveness, student motivation, and personalized learning. However, their readiness for AI integration remains moderate, constrained by limited professional development, inadequate digital infrastructure, insufficient AI literacy, and policy-related gaps. By foregrounding teachers’ voices from a rural context, this study extends international ELT and AI-in-education scholarship beyond technologically advantaged settings. This research adds empirical support to discussions of equitable AI integration while underscoring the importance of context-specific professional development, institutional infrastructure, and ethical governance in fostering sustainable AI-mediated ELT practices.
