Abstract

Desa Tua Pejat, Kabupaten Kepulauan Mentawai, memiliki potensi yang besar untuk pengembangan pariwisata berbasis ekowisata, terutama dalam hal olahraga air seperti stand up paddle (SUP) dan water rescue. Namun, kendala utama untuk memaksimalkan potensi tersebut adalah kurangnya keterampilan masyarakat lokal dalam mengelola kegiatan tersebut. Dalam upaya mendukung wisata olahraga berbasis ekowisata, artikel ini akan menjelaskan metode yang dapat digunakan untuk memberikan pelatihan SUP dan water rescue. Pelatihan diberikan melalui kombinasi teori dan praktik langsung di lapangan, dengan melibatkan masyarakat lokal secara aktif. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa keterampilan peserta meningkat secara signifikan dalam menguasai teknik SUP dan kemampuan penyelamatan di air. Pelatihan ini juga berhasil meningkatkan kesadaran peserta akan pentingnya keselamatan dan keberlanjutan dalam kegiatan wisata air. Hasil dari program ini menunjukkan bahwa pelatihan berbasis masyarakat dapat menjadi strategi yang efektif untuk mendukung pertumbuhan pariwisata berbasis ekowisata sekaligus memberdayakan masyarakat lokal. Rekomendasi yang diberikan adalah bahwa program pelatihan ini harus dilanjutkan dan didukung oleh sektor swasta dan pemerintah untuk memaksimalkan potensi wisata olahraga di Kepulauan Mentawai.

Abstract

       Teaching writing to young learners in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context often met with concerns about developmental readiness. However, some studies show that young learners can benefit from creative and multimodal approaches to writing. While much has been studied on teaching speaking and listening skills, studies on visual stimuli like drawing for writing instruction at an early age are limited. This study aims to empower young learners to produce simple descriptive texts through a drawing-based writing task, using their favorite pets as the topic. Employing a case study design, this study involved one class of children, class I,I, which consisted of fourteen learners in a private English language course in Bengkulu, Indonesia. They were in the first and second grades in the elementary schools with ages between 6-7 years. Data were collected through classroom observations, student work, and reflective feedback from teachers. After young learners studied basic vocabulary and sentence structures in eight meetings, they drew their favorite pets and wrote short descriptions based on their drawings. The number of sentences that they should write ranges from four to six sentences. Each sentence contained five to eight words.  The results show that young learners could write simple descriptive texts using basic vocabulary and sentence structures using drawing-based writing tasks. This technique also helped young learners generate content and reduced cognitive load during writing. These findings suggest that creative, visual-based tasks can be effective in teaching writing to young EFL learners.

Abstract

      This study examines students’ performance in the TOEFL listening comprehension test, focusing on their strengths and weaknesses across three sections: short conversations (Part A), long conversations (Part B), and short talks (Part C). There are 45 students registered in the course “Aplikasi Pendidikan Bahasa dalam Pembelajaran PJOK” on the odd semester in the 2024/2025 academic year participated in this study. The participants are chosen because the course integrates TOEFL-based language instruction, as outlined in the semester learning plan (RPS), where one of the students’ difficulties is listening skills. A descriptive quantitative research design was conducted over a three-week study period, with listening tests administered weekly during three class meetings. The tests used questions adopted from standardized TOEFL practice materials, which were selected based on their alignment with the test's objectives and validated by experienced English instructors for relevance and difficulty. Data analysis discovered that students consistently performed best in Part C, with average scores increasing from 53% to 65% across three tests, while Part B presented the most significant challenges, with scores improving from 43% to 54%. Part A showed moderate performance, with scores rising from 49% to 60%. These results show that there is also an improvement on each part of the test, attributed to repeated exposure to the test format and the development of listening strategies. However, the persistent difficulty in Part B suggests the need for targeted instructional interventions to address challenges in extended dialogues. It can be concluded that the students demonstrated general improvement in TOEFL listening comprehension across all sections. The repeated exposure can be an effective strategy performance in TOEFL listening comprehension.
