Abstract

Writing skills are crucial in Indonesian language learning at the secondary school level. However, students’ creative writing abilities remain weak, and low motivation is often cited as a contributing factor. Therefore, an effective solution is needed to support creative writing instruction. This study aimed to analyze students' needs for an Electronic Learner Worksheet (E-LKPD) to enhance creative writing skills in junior high school. A survey method was employed, involving 294 students. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews, and analyzed using both qualitative and quantitative techniques. The findings revealed three main points: (1) the E-LKPD should align with established principles of E-LKPD development, its characteristic features, and the fundamentals of poetry writing instruction; (2) existing E-LKPD exhibit significant shortcomings; and (3) teachers at Junior High School 56 Palembang express a strong need for interactive E-LKPD to support poetry writing instruction. The study underscores the necessity of developing more effective and engaging E-LKPD to improve students’ creative writing skills and overall literacy. Enhancing the quality of instructional materials could better motivate students and foster greater achievement in writing.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is a crucial skill that supports the academic success of junior high school students, particularly in an increasingly globalized world. Understanding students' proficiency in this area is essential for developing effective teaching strategies. This quantitative descriptive study evaluated the English reading comprehension abilities of 80 ninth-grade students at MTs Muqimus Sunnah. The assessment was based on an 18-question reading comprehension test covering four key aspects: contraction, sequence, vocabulary, and inference. The study also analyzed performance differences by gender and grade level. The results revealed that female students scored higher on average (4.43) than male students (3.66), though the difference was not statistically significant. Students demonstrated the strongest performance in contraction (8.68) and sequence (7.73) items. However, they struggled with context understanding and inference, indicating a need for improvement in higher-order reading skills. The findings suggest that while students show proficiency in recognizing structural and sequential elements, they face challenges in deeper analytical reading. This highlights the importance of targeted instructional strategies that emphasize vocabulary development and critical reading skills. This study provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers in enhancing English literacy instruction. Structured interventions focusing on analytical comprehension and vocabulary acquisition are recommended to address observed weaknesses and support overall reading development.
