Abstract

This study looks at how eighth-grade students feel about using self-rating when they write in English. The goal is to see how self-rating affects their understanding of their writing skills, their motivation, and the quality of their writing. The research uses a qualitative case study approach, where data was gathered through interviews with students from class 8D at MTsN 3 Kota Surabaya. The interviews were done online using Google Meet, and the questions were in Indonesian to make sure students understood them clearly. The results show that students mostly liked self-rating because it helped them become more aware of their strengths and weaknesses, improved their writing, and made them more motivated. But some students also mentioned problems like not knowing exactly how to evaluate their work and feeling unsure about their abilities. The study recommends including guided self-rating exercises in writing lessons to help students be more independent and reflective in their learning.

Abstract

This article discusses students' perspectives on the benefits of using video learning materials in the classroom to improve listening skills. By gathering students' views and experiences, this study identifies how video materials can increase engagement, understanding, and information retention. Through qualitative analysis, the findings show that the use of videos not only makes learning more interesting but also helps students overcome challenges in understanding various accents and intonations. This article aims to provide insights into the potential of video as an effective learning tool and its implications for developing essential listening skills in academic and everyday communication contexts. Therefore, this study is expected to contribute to more innovative teaching practices that are responsive to students' needs.
