Abstract

This study intended to determine whether or not SMAN 3 Kulisusu students' writing skills might be improved by using a scientific approach. The research was conducted using quasi-experiments. Students in SMAN 3 Kulisusu's tenth grade made up the research sample. The samples, which included 20 students in each of the two classes (for a total of 40), were purposefully selected. A written descriptive test for pre- and post-tests was the instrument utilized to collect the data. The results showed that the experimental group's mean post-test score (34.5) was higher than the control group's mean post-test score (18.2). With a degree of freedom (df) = 38, the value of the t-test (12.5) was higher than the t-table (2.024) at the level of significance 0.05. As a result, H0 was disproved, and Ha was accepted. Based on the results, it is considered that using a scientific approach helped the tenth-grade students at SMAN 3 Kulisusu, Kab Buton Utara, improve their writing skills.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to obtain data regarding students' perceptions of the intensity of corrective feedback (CF) provided by lecturers and its influence on their self-confidence and self-expression abilities. To achieve the above objectives, a qualitative approach was used thru in-depth semi-structured interviews conducted with students from the English Language Education Study Program, Faculty of Languages and Literature, Makassar State University, who were taking English courses thru synchronous and asynchronous media. To analyze the data obtained, this study uses thematic analysis, which includes the stages of transcription, data reduction, coding, categorization, and the extraction of thematic meaning. The results of the research data analysis show that (1) students positively perceive the intensity of corrective feedback, which includes attention, duration, and frequency, differing between one lecturer and another because synchronous CF provides space for direct interaction and quick clarification, while asynchronous CF gives students the opportunity to reflect and correct errors independently; and (2) the intensity of CF has a positive impact on increasing students' self-confidence and self-expression in English, both orally and in writing, although feedback that is too frequent and delivered inappropriately can reduce motivation and cause anxiety. The results of this study conclude that a balance of intensity and approach in providing corrective feedback has a positive impact on the optimal linguistic and psychological development of students.
