Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of the Pre-Reading Plan (PREP) strategy in enhancing reading comprehension among eighth-grade students at SMPN 3 Panca Rijang. Employing a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest method, the research involved 20 students and one English teacher as participants. Data collection included pretests, posttests, and questionnaires, analyzed through qualitative and quantitative methods. Results indicated significant improvements in students' reading comprehension post-implementation of the PREP strategy, with the percentage of students meeting the minimum completeness criteria increasing from 35% to 70%. Additionally, students exhibited higher engagement levels during learning activities, and the teacher's performance in classroom management improved. Many students expressed a positive interest in the PREP strategy. These findings support the conclusion that the PREP strategy effectively enhances reading comprehension among students. It is recommended that the PREP strategy be adopted more widely to foster improved reading skills in English language learning contexts, as it encourages students to activate prior knowledge and engage more deeply with the reading material. Overall, this research highlights the importance of interactive and student-centered teaching strategies in improving reading comprehension and fostering a positive learning environment.

Abstract

This study aimed to 1) describe the types of speech acts used by members of the English Students Association (ESA), and 2) explore the communication strategies applied within the association. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with 20 ESA members as the subjects. The data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The findings revealed that the members of ESA employed locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts in their daily communication. Common speech acts identified included warning, requesting, inviting, suggesting, promising, refusal, and commanding. Furthermore, communication strategies such as politeness—both positive and negative—were evident, with members often using direct and indirect forms of communication to achieve their goals. The results also indicated that ESA members were interested in and actively engaged in utilizing speech acts and communication strategies in their interactions. This was evidenced by the average questionnaire score of 82.30, categorized as high interest. The findings suggest that understanding and applying speech acts and communication strategies enhance the effectiveness of communication within the organization.
