Abstract

This study aims to find out whether or not the incorporation of song lyrics is effective in improving students’ vocabulary of verbs in the Eleventh Grade at SMA Negeri 5 Bulukumba. This study employed a nonequivalent group design and a quasi-experimental methodology. Two classes were utilized as the sample by the researchers; the experimental group and the control group.

According to data analysis, there was a significant difference in students' vocabulary knowledge in the experimental class, which used English song lyrics, and the control class did not use song lyrics. This is proven by seeing the mean score of posttests for the control class was 68.91 categorized as fair. For the experimental class, the mean score on the pretests was 60.47, which was considered low, while the mean score on the posttests was 80.31, which was considered high.

Abstract

This study aims to determine whether window shopping has the potential to develop students' vocabulary in English, specifically within class VIII D at SMP Negeri 5 Mandai. This study integrates a quantitative methodology with a pre-experimental design. All eighth-grade students are included in the research population, and 31 students from class VIII D serve as a sample, which was selected randomly. To collect the data, a pre-test and post-test design was used, with the pre-test carried out before the treatment (the implementation of Window Shopping) and the post-test conducted afterward. SPSS was used to analyze the data. The use of Window-Shopping improved students’ vocabulary in English, according to the data analysis results. This can be proven by the significant difference shown in the results of the pre- and post-tests. The average pre-test score of the students was 52.7419, and the average post-test score was 89.1935. Since the T-test result was less than P, (0.001 < 0.05) the null hypothesis (H0) in this study is rejected, while the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that using Window Shopping as a learning method can enhance students’ English vocabulary.

Conversely, teachers with lower levels of emotional intelligence may struggle with classroom management and face challenges in building strong relationships with their students. Based on these findings, it is recommended that teachers attend training that can improve emotional intelligence, and further research should be suggested to explore the effect of emotional intelligence on student learning outcomes.
