Abstract

Aims to describe the types of difficulties, contributing factors, and solutions in poetry declamation among eighth-grade students of class VIII C at SMP Negeri 1 Mempawah Hulu. The study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method with a single instrumental case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. Data analysis involved data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through technique and source triangulation. The findings reveal that students’ difficulties in poetry declamation include unclear articulation, monotonous intonation, rigid expressions and gestures, and insufficient internalization of the poem’s meaning. These difficulties are influenced by internal and external factors. Internal factors include low self-confidence, performance anxiety, limited understanding of the poem’s meaning, and insufficiently trained vocal skills. External factors include less varied teaching methods, a lack of appropriate declamation models, limited practice opportunities, an unsupportive learning environment, and limited facilities for literature learning. The solutions implemented include continuous declamation practice, the use of more engaging teaching methods and learning media, the provision of appropriate declamation examples, and teacher guidance to enhance students’ self-confidence. This study is expected to serve as a reference for improving the quality of poetry declamation instruction at the junior high school level.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the correlation between self-confidence and news text speaking skills of eleventh-grade students at SMA Koperasi Pontianak. This study used a quantitative method with a correlation research design. The population and sample of this study were eleventh-grade students at SMA Koperasi Pontianak. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire instrument to measure self-confidence and a performance assessment rubric to measure news text speaking skills. The data analysis technique used was the Product Moment correlation analysis. The results showed that the students' self-confidence level was in the fairly good category (mean 70.94) and the speaking skill level was also in the fairly good category (mean 71.11). Based on the analysis, a very strong and significant positive correlation was found between self-confidence and news text speaking skills. This finding is evidenced by a correlation coefficient value of 0.911, which is greater than the r-table value of 0.388, indicating that the research hypothesis is accepted.
