Abstract

This study aims to analyze the choice of student reading books that are directed to support their professional goals. A descriptive qualitative approach is used to explore preferences, motivations, and factors that influence students in choosing reading. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document review on students from various study programs. The results show that the majority of students choose books that are relevant to the field of work they want to pursue, such as practical management, education, and applied technology. The dominant factors that affect the selection are the relevance of the content to career, lecturer recommendations, and the availability of books in the library. However, a gap was found between the needs of students and the available reading collection, especially in the current and applicative aspects. Students also develop independent strategies in finding alternative reading sources digitally. These findings confirm the importance of information literacy and the support of educational institutions in providing professional reading according to their needs. This study recommends strengthening the professional literacy ecosystem through improving library collections, digital literacy training, and recognition of students' independent learning.

Abstract

This study explores the reading comprehension skills of junior high school students by using local folklore texts as reading material. Local folklore is a culturally rich and engaging medium that enhances students’ understanding of narrative structures, vocabulary, and moral values. The research aims to examine the level of students’ reading comprehension and how local culture-based texts can be effectively integrated into reading lessons. The study uses a quantitative approach, including reading tests based on one local folklore, an interview sheet, and observations. The subjects of the research were 50 eighth-grade students from two classes at a private school in Indonesia. The analysis of pre-test and post-test scores revealed a significant improvement in reading comprehension for the experimental group. The mean post-test score for the experimental group was 15% higher than the pre-test score, indicating that exposure to local folklore had a positive effect on students' comprehension abilities. Findings indicate that folklore texts positively influence students’ comprehension, particularly in identifying main ideas, interpreting implicit meanings, and relating texts to personal experiences. This supports the integration of local literature in language learning to promote cultural literacy and comprehension skills.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach on the speaking ability of first-grade students. A quantitative method was employed, specifically a quasi-experimental design. There were two classes selected: one as the experimental group (X) and the other as the control group (Y). The participants were the first-grade students of SMAN 2 Kupang in the 2024/2025 academic year. Class A and Class B were chosen as the samples using purposive sampling. A questionnaire was administered to assess the perceptions of the experimental group regarding the implementation of the CLT approach. In addition, tests were conducted to measure students’ progress in speaking ability, and classroom observations were carried out to monitor student engagement during the application of the CLT approach. Based on the comparison between pre-test and post-test results, students’ post-test scores were higher than their pre-test scores. The results of the hypothesis testing showed that the calculated t-value is 12.503, which exceeded the critical t-value of 1.701 (tₐ ≥ tₜ). Therefore, the null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Hₐ) is accepted. These findings indicated that the implementation of the CLT approach was effective in improving the speaking ability of first-grade students.
