Abstract

Students' speaking ability in Indonesian language learning is an important aspect that needs to be optimized. However, conventional learning approaches that are less relevant to students' lives often hinder the development of these skills. This study aims to analyze teachers' strategies, especially in the Muadalah Ulya Education Unit, in integrating the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) method to improve students' speaking skills, identify challenges and solutions to the implementation of CTL, and evaluate the transformation of students' speaking skills after the implementation of this method. This research used a qualitative approach with a case study design, where data was collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The results showed that the implementation of CTL encouraged students to be more active in speaking through learning activities relevant to daily life. Challenges faced include time constraints, technology support, and differences in students' level of understanding, but these can be overcome through the preparation of flexible lesson plans and collaboration between teachers and students. Visible transformations include increased student courage in expressing opinions, more structured language use, and better understanding of the context of the conversation. This study found that the application of CTL method in Indonesian language learning is effective in optimizing students' speaking skills, while providing meaningful and contextual learning experiences. This research emphasizes the development of learning strategies that are relevant to the needs of students in the modern era.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the mechanisms of lexical access in native speakers from a neurolinguistic perspective, with a particular focus on the processes of activation and selection of lexical representations in spontaneous spoken discourse. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data consisting of naturally occurring utterances produced by five native speakers of Indonesian. The data were collected through recorded conversations and analyzed by identifying surface-level linguistic markers, such as pauses, repetitions, self-repairs, and lexical stress, which reflect the dynamics of lexical access. The findings indicate that the process of lexical activation does not occur in a linear manner; rather, it involves competition among lexical representations prior to the final selection stage. This phenomenon is theoretically consistent with models of speech production that emphasize the interaction between activation and lexical selection control. This study contributes to theoretical neurolinguistics by presenting an analysis based on natural speech data in the context of the Indonesian language. The findings enrich the understanding of lexical access mechanisms in spontaneous speech production and demonstrate that surface-level linguistic phenomena can serve as a basis for interpreting cognitive processes in language production. The novelty of this study lies in its examination of lexical access mechanisms based on spontaneous spoken data, positioning lexical stress as a prosodic indicator of the lexical selection stage—an aspect that has rarely been addressed in previous neurolinguistic studies, which are generally based on experimental tasks.
