Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore whether blended learning might encourage students in the English-speaking second-grade class at SMPN 9 Kendari. This study is designed precisely to identify these issues. The focus of the research in this study is a second grade Junior High School class of 36 students. A qualitative research design was used for this study. Data is gathered through classroom observation and documentation. The findings show that blended learning is unsuccessfully implemented to encourage students' motivation in speaking class because there is an imbalance in the results between online and offline learning. The study also exposes the difficulties that students experience when studying online, such as their inability to use smartphone mobile functions, poor internet connections, and a lack of engagement as well as the teachers' insufficient supervision of such learning to prevent students from concentrating on the learning process.

Abstract

Curriculum changes are a common strategy to enhance the quality of education. The transition from the 2013 Curriculum to the Merdeka Curriculum requires teachers to be adequately prepared to comprehend changes in content, structure, planning, implementation, and evaluation of the new curriculum, particularly in the 2023-2024 academic year. This study aims to assess the readiness of teachers in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum for English instruction in elementary schools. A qualitative case study approach was employed, focusing on grade 1 and grade 4 teachers who have implemented the curriculum. Data collection methods included interviews, observations, and document analysis. The data analysis process followed three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The findings reveal that teachers demonstrate readiness in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum, preparing lesson plans, and adapting to its new elements. Despite the introduction of new terms and curriculum structures, teachers are utilizing online resources and textbooks as primary teaching aids. However, challenges persist, particularly as English is now a core subject, and many teachers lack formal training in English language education. Additionally, while formative and summative assessments have been incorporated, diagnostic assessments at the beginning of the learning process remain underutilized, limiting teachers’ ability to assess students' prior knowledge and learning gaps. This study contributes to policy development and teacher training by highlighting the need for targeted professional development programs, particularly in English language education, and suggesting the importance of incorporating diagnostic assessments to better address students' learning needs from the outset.

Abstract

This study conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) to examine the role of YouTube in enhancing English vocabulary acquisition among early childhood learners aged 3–8. Drawing upon 60 peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 to 2025, the review analyzes how YouTube functions as a digital learning tool, the strategies employed in classroom and home settings, and the challenges that accompany its integration. Findings reveal that YouTube provides multimodal, engaging, and contextual input that significantly supports vocabulary recognition, retention, and recall. Songs, animated stories, and interactive videos were found to increase children’s motivation, stimulate cognitive processing, and create enjoyable learning experiences. Moreover, the review highlights the importance of scaffolding by teachers and parents, whose mediation maximizes the effectiveness of YouTube by providing explanation, repetition, and guided practice. Despite its potential, several challenges remain, including risks of distraction, excessive screen time, inappropriate content, and unequal digital access.
