Abstract

This research investigates the implementation of the Audio-lingual Method (ALM) to enhance listening skills among Junior High School students. The study used a classroom action research (CAR) approach, involving three cycles with observations, pre-tests, post-tests, and a questionnaire. The findings revealed that students initially struggle with listening in English due to limited vocabulary, grammatical difficulties, pronunciation issues, and a lack of confidence. The ALM significantly improved students' listening comprehension skills through audio recordings, dialogues, interactive activities, and authentic materials. Around 75% of students felt significantly assisted and found it easier to comprehend English vocabulary after the ALM implementation. However, 15% of students expressed disagreement, citing continued struggles with limited vocabulary. The ALM positively influences students' listening skills by combining listening practice with interactive activities and authentic materials. To further enhance students' listening abilities, teachers should address vocabulary limitations and pronunciation challenges, and employ additional strategies to foster a supportive and enjoyable learning environment. Future research should explore supplementary approaches and resources that complement the ALM to further enhance students' listening skills. Evaluating the long-term impact of the ALM on students' listening abilities would provide valuable insights into its effectiveness over an extended period. By implementing these findings, educators can effectively enhance students' listening skills and promote their overall English language proficiency. Keywords: Listening skills, Audio Lingual Method (ALM), effectiveness, classroom action research (CAR), observations.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the implementation of language learning evaluation and assessment in the Independent Curriculum at Al Maksum Vocational High School (SMK), especially in language subjects. The data collection method involves observation and interviews, with a focus on the evaluation model used, assessment methods, and the obstacles teachers face in the evaluation and assessment process. The results of interviews with six language teachers showed variations in evaluation forms, such as written tests, presentations, group discussions, and projects. The main obstacles faced include time constraints, lack of training, and technological barriers during online learning. As innovations, the use of technology in assessment, project-based learning, and adaptive learning are proposed to increase the effectiveness of evaluation and assessment. This research contributes to understanding the dynamics of evaluation and assessment in language learning in the context of an independent curriculum, with implications for improving the quality of learning at Al Maksum Vocational School.
