Abstract

Speaking is an essential yet challenging skill for young English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners because it requires linguistic knowledge, communicative competence, and self-confidence. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Buzz Group Technique in improving the English speaking skills of sixth-grade students at MI Ma'arif NU Miru, Lamongan, Indonesia. A quantitative pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed involving 18 students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using speaking performance tests assessing pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, fluency, and comprehension, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and the paired-samples t-test. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students' speaking performance, with the mean score increasing from 62.11 in the pretest to 80.06 in the posttest. The paired-samples t-test confirmed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (t(17) = −18.26, p < .001). All speaking components improved, with fluency showing the greatest gain. These findings indicate that the Buzz Group Technique is an effective student-centered strategy for enhancing English speaking skills and communicative competence among young EFL learners in Indonesian elementary schools.

Abstract

This study analyzed the efficiency of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) using the application named Cake in improving the students’ reading comprehension skills at SMPN 1 Pucuk. A quantitative method using a pre-experimental design of one group pretest-posttest was used. Thirty eighth graders having problems with their reading comprehension participated in this study. The data collected was obtained through administering reading comprehension tests to the students both before and after the administration of treatment. The data collected was then analyzed using descriptive statistics, Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and paired sample t-test through the use of the Jamovi software. From the descriptive statistics, there was a remarkable improvement in the performance of the students in terms of reading with their average scores increasing from 46.1 to 86.4. There was also evidence of normal distribution of data (W=0.974, p=0.654). Moreover, the output obtained from conducting paired sample t-test on the scores obtained before the treatment and after the treatment was significantly different (t(29) = -23.5; p < .001). The finding indicates that the impact of the treatment in enhancing the reading skills of the subjects was significantly significant. Based on the findings, the Cake App can be considered as a MALA for enhancing the reading skills among junior high school students

Abstract

EFL university students frequently struggle to maintain coherence and fluency simultaneously during academic oral presentations, yet the pragmatic role of discourse markers in addressing this challenge remains underexplored in the Indonesian EFL context. This study investigated the types of discourse markers employed by EFL students, their pragmatic functions in supporting discourse coherence, and their contribution to fluency maintenance during academic oral presentations. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, applying Pragmatic Discourse Analysis as the analytical framework, drawing on the theoretical foundations of (Fraser, 1990) and (Schiffrin, 1987). The participants were 14 fifth-semester undergraduate students of the English Language Education Program at Universitas Islam Darul Ulum (UNISDA), Lamongan, Indonesia, at an intermediate level of English proficiency. Data were collected through audio recording and verbatim transcription of classroom presentations, using a researcher-developed Discourse Marker Identification Checklist and Coding Scheme. Data were analyzed through systematic identification, classification, and pragmatic interpretation across all transcripts. The findings revealed five functional categories: additive (31.19%), causal (21.56%), sequential (17.43%), elaborative (16.51%), and contrastive (13.30%), across 218 total instances. These markers functioned to organize discourse structure, signal logical relationships, and sustain speech fluency simultaneously. A key limitation is the small, institution-specific sample. The study concludes that discourse markers serve as integrative pragmatic devices managing coherence and fluency concurrently. EFL educators should integrate explicit instruction on all five discourse marker categories into academic speaking curricula. While future research should expand to larger, multi-institutional samples using mixed-method designs.
