Abstract

A key to reading comprehension is understanding the message conveyed and it depends heavily on the understanding of the meaning of words appeared in the text. For students, reading comprehension becomes one of the skills that they are more familiar with since they deal with reading texts every day even in examinations. This situation drives students to cope with many unfamiliar English words causing them stuck in comprehending the message conveyed. Therefore, assisting students to improve their comprehension by inferring word meaning from context is very important. Corresponding to the idea, the writer did an experimental study to implement context clues strategy which (is believed) can help students to infer words meaning in reading text. The study was implemented on 20 students of XII IPS3 of SMAN 12 Banda Aceh to figure out how the strategy assists the students in inferring the meaning of unknown words. The result shows that the students’ comprehension improves well reflected on the mean score got by students from pretest and posttest increasing from 54.5 to 80.25. The development can be achieved since the strategy trains and guides the students to find out the clues provided in the text in the form of definition, synonym, antonym, example, or inference, that help them to guess the meaning of the word. In conclusion, context clues strategy does assist the students in inferring words meaning from context. Hence, it is suggested for English teacher to apply it in classroom in order to facilitate students’ reading comprehension.

Abstract

Writing is a crucial skill to have while learning English. Students must be able to write in English. Students at SMPN 10 Banda Aceh still have poor writing skills. Students continue to struggle with writing, particularly descriptive text. This is due to a lack of enthusiasm as well as monotonous classes. As a result, researcher was interested in using guessing games to help students improve their writing skills on descriptive text. The purpose of this study is to see if guessing games could help 7th grade students at SMPN 10 Banda Aceh improve their ability to write descriptive text. This research takes a quantitative approach and uses a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test post-test design. The sample for this study was 28 students from a total population of 89 students. The data was gathered by pre-tests and post-test. From the pre-test to the post-test, the findings of this study indicated a significant increase. This is seen by the increase in the average score from 37.23 to 68.21, as well as the improvement in each indicator by an average of 79 percent. It is clear that Ha has been accepted and Ho has been rejected. As a result, guessing games are effective in improving students’ descriptive text writing skills.

Abstract

The authors address the study on intercultural communicative competence (ICC) of EFL students from different culture at higher education in the classroom setting. ICC is the most interesting and important topic in every meeting among people from different ethnic groups. López-Rocha (2016) mentions that intercultural communicative competence (ICC) needs to be incorporated in the language curriculum if educators hope to help students develop an appreciation for the language and culture studied, an awareness of their own culture, and the development of skills that will allow them to be competent, adaptable, and communicators. This present study therefore aims at exploring students’ perceptions on the practice of intercultural communication competence in EFL classroom at English Department, Faculty of Languages and Literature State University of Makassar, Indonesia in 2019/2020 academic year. A questionnaire was distributed and responded by fifty four undergraduate students. The data obtained from respondents were analyzed using descriptive statistics illustrating mean, standard deviation (SD), sum, and percentage of students’ perceptions on the questionnaire dealing with ICC practices in EFL classroom. The findings reveal that the students enjoy interacting with other students from different cultures. Other evidences from the study are: 1) they find it easy to talk to students from different cultures, 2) they like to be with students from different cultures, 3) they are open-minded to students from different cultures, 4) they respect the ways students from different cultures behave, 5) They try to get as much information as they can when interacting with students from different cultures, 6) they never think their culture is better than other cultures, 7) they often give positive responses to students from other cultures when maintaining interaction, and 8) they have a feeling of enjoyment towards diversity in their classroom interaction. The implication of the study is that the inclusion of ICC in the curriculum at higher education is a must.

Abstract

Comprehensive teaching-learning about speaking evaluation, especially peer evaluation, is conspicuous by its absence in English Foreign Language (EFL) Speaking classes at all secondary and tertiary levels in Indonesia, especially in Aceh, This comparative research study looks at the various aspects used for evaluation and especially looks at peer evaluation in EFL speaking classes in Aceh. The paper describes twenty three (23) components recommended for evaluation of speaking communications: the seen, the spoken and the script (content) components. The results showed that teachers of EFL speaking are not using and are not even taught such detailed evaluation systems. Moreover the syllabi for speaking English at upper secondary level are severely lacking as are those used in tertiary courses. Educators need to learn from the Toastmasters International systems for evaluation and for making evaluation speeches, in particular the need to prioritise praise in evaluation with only a pointer or two on how to improve the next speech. This paper includes a simplified format for peer evaluations that students can easily be taught to use and also stresses the need for praise, not punishment, for successful evaluation. Teachers of Speaking English EFL, who practice the recommendations from this paper, should get much better results from their students.
