Abstract

Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro is a widely acclaimed novel that explores themes of identity, conformity, and social control. While numerous studies have examined the novel through various literary and critical lenses, there is a notable lack of research analyzing it through the Marxist postulates of power dynamics, and ideological control. This study addresses this gap by applying Van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) to investigate how the novel portrays power dynamics and ideological control resulting in oppression of characters and the internalization of ideology. This qualitative research examines Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro through the Marxist postulates of power dynamics, and ideological control, utilizing Van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as an analytical model.  By applying Van Dijk’s CDA framework, the research reveals how the clones, as a marginalized underclass, internalize their exploitation, reinforcing the hegemonic structures that govern them. The findings of this study contributes to Marxist literary criticism and discourse analysis, offering new insights into the intersection of language, power, and ideology in Ishiguro’s dystopian narrative. Keywords : Never Let Me Go, Critical Discourse Analysis, Marxist Criticism, Ideological

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of storytelling as an instructional strategy for improving students’ reading comprehension. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 32 students divided into a control group (n=14) and an experimental group (n=18). The control group was taught using conventional methods, while the experimental group received a storytelling-based intervention. Pre-test and post-test scores were analyzed to measure the impact of the teaching methods.The results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group’s reading comprehension. The mean score for the experimental group increased from 64.89 in the pre-test to 78.22 in the post-test, while the control group’s mean score only increased from 65.21 to 68.57. A paired t-test revealed that the experimental group’s improvement was statistically significant (t=6.72, p<0.01), whereas the control group’s improvement was not (t=1.85, p>0.05). An independent t-test comparing the post-test scores of the two groups confirmed a significant difference (t=4.29, p<0.01), with the experimental group outperforming the control group. The effect size (Cohen’s d=1.12) indicated a large impact of the storytelling intervention. These findings highlighted storytelling’s potential to enhance students’ reading comprehension by fostering engagement and deeper understanding of the material. The study underscores the importance of integrating innovative teaching strategies, such as storytelling, into educational practices to improve learning outcomes. Further research is recommended to explore its application across different subjects and educational levels. Keywords : storytelling, teaching strategy, reading comprehension
