Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is a skill that refers to a high level of proficiency in processing words in a language. The students at the tenth grade of SMK Negeri 1 Gunungsitoli lacked vocabulary mastery, so they found it difficulty to understand texts properly and did not achieve the minimum competency criteria (MMC) that has been set at school. The purpose of this study was to improve the students' ability to vocabulary mastery. In improving students' vocabulary mastery, the researcher used Word Cloud and applied it in Classroom Action Research (CAR). This research was conducted in Cycle II, there were four steps in conducting research, namely: planning, action, observation and reflection. . In Cycle I, there was no student who was classified in "very good level", there were two students (5.72%) in "good level". Instead of that, there were 19 students (54.28%) in "fair level", 14 students (40%) in "poor level". In addition, the average of the students' mark was 53.00. The results show that many students were at enough and less levels so it really needed to be improved in the next cycle. In Cycle II, there was 1 student (2.86 ) in “poor level”, there were 7 students (20%) in “fair level”, there were 6 students (17.14%) in “good level”, and 22 students ( 62.86 % ) in “very good level”. In addition, the average of the students' mark was 86.42. The students' average mark was higher than the MMC that was 75. Based on the explanation above, it is concluded that the Word Cloud can improve the students' vocabulary mastery at the tenth grade of SMK Negeri 1 Gunungsitoli in 2022/2023.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of using folktales in improving the English speaking skills of students in class VIII of SMPN 1 Gunungsitoli Barat. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study involved 26 students as the main subjects. The results showed that the integration of folktales in learning had a significant impact on students' pronunciation ability, where 60% of them achieved a good score. Folklore not only improves pronunciation, but also eases the teaching and assessment process, and fosters students' interest in learning. Supporting factors such as the use of varied teaching methods and students' interest in local culture also catalysed the success. Comparative analysis showed that students who were active in folklore-based activities had higher levels of fluency and confidence than the less engaged group. However, the study also identified a number of challenges, such as limited learning time and limited available resources, which require further attention. In conclusion, folklore proved to be an effective learning medium in improving students' English speaking skills. In addition, it made a positive contribution to overall learning, by strengthening students' appreciation of local culture while improving the quality of the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

This study seeks to enhance students' speaking abilities through small group discussions. Many students face challenges in speaking English due to a lack of confidence and practice, while teachers often overlook engaging strategies that motivate students to participate. To address this, the researcher employed Classroom Action Research (CAR), which consisted of two cycles, each comprising two meetings focused on planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through observations, field notes, and evaluation sheets. The findings revealed significant improvement in each cycle, thanks to the grouping technique. In the first cycle, the average student score was 51, with many students not meeting the minimum competency standards (KKM). By the second cycle, however, all students successfully passed, achieving an average score of 79. The researcher concluded that small group discussions are an effective way to boost students' speaking ability. It is recommended that both students and teachers adopt this technique to further improve their speaking abilities.
