Membaca pemahaman merupakan kegiatan yang dilakukan untuk mendapatkan makna dari hasil membaca sehingga dapat memahami informasi detail yang terkandung dalam bacaan. Ini adalah salah satu tantangan yang dihadapi oleh siswa sekolah menengah pertama dalam memahami makna teks. Mereka memiliki pemahaman bacaan yang buruk sehingga sulit bagi mereka untuk memahami dan menemukan informasi penting yang terkandung dalam sebuah teks. Akibatnya, guru harus menggunakan strategi yang tepat dan efektif untuk membantu siswa memahami teks. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini berfokus pada Question-Answer Relationship (QAR) sebagai strategi pelatihan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman membaca siswa dalam teks deskriptif dan menemukan tanggapan siswa setelah mengimplementasikan QAR dalam kegiatan kelas. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa QAR merupakan strategi yang sangat berguna dan efektif untuk meningkatkan kemampuan membaca pemahaman siswa di kelas. Siswa menjadi lebih baik dalam menanggapi pertanyaan pemahaman dalam teks deskriptif.

The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The study subjects consisted of 38 seventh-grade students and one English teacher. Data analysis was conducted in four stages: data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results showed that most students had positive attitudes toward learning English reading. This was evident from their active involvement in reading texts, their willingness to answer questions based on the reading, and their efforts to understand vocabulary and text content. However, several students also exhibited negative attitudes, such as a lack of interest in reading English texts, difficulty understanding the reading content, and a tendency to be passive during the reading activity. Factors influencing students' attitudes toward learning English reading include family environment, peer influence, unsupervised use of gadgets, the teacher's reading learning methods, and students' perceptions of the difficulty level of English reading texts. In addition, this study found that the application of interesting reading strategies, the use of texts that are appropriate to students' ability levels, the integration of character education, providing motivation, and increasing interaction between teachers and students are effective in building students' positive attitudes towards reading activities.

Abstract

This research aimed to develop an interactive educational game to improve students’ English speaking skills, focusing on the topics of Past Events and No Littering. The study employed the ADDIE development model, which consists of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation stages. Data were collected through classroom observation, semi-structured interviews with teachers and students, questionnaires, expert validation sheets, and speaking performance tests. The speaking tests were administered in the form of pre-test and post-test, using oral tasks such as short monologues and guided dialogues that assessed fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammatical accuracy. The interactive educational game was developed using the Wordwall platform and integrated game-based learning features to promote active participation, motivation, and meaningful speaking practice. The results of media and material expert validation indicated that the product achieved a “Very Good” category with an average feasibility score of 90%. Statistical analysis of students’ speaking performance showed an improvement in the mean score from the pre-test to the post-test, indicating a positive effect of the game on students’ speaking ability. In addition, students’ responses during the implementation phase revealed high levels of engagement and motivation. Based on these findings, the developed interactive educational game is feasible and effective as a supplementary learning medium for enhancing students’ English speaking skills. Future research is recommended to apply the game on a larger sample and over a longer period, as well as to integrate similar game-based media into other English language skills such as listening or writing.
