Abstract

ABSTRACTThis research analyzes the implementation of the "bits and pieces" game on students' learning outcomes in writing English descriptive texts. A quasi-experimental design with Junior High School students as the population and a cluster random sampling technique used to draw the sample. Furthermore, two groups were administered pre- and post-test to collect the data. According to the data analysis, a noteworthy disparity existed in the post-test outcomes between the two groups. The experimental group had an average score of 86.60, whereas the control group had 62.43 score. By setting a significance level of 0.05 and degree of freedom (df) of 40 (21+21-2), the t-test demonstrated that the calculated t-value (6.487) surpassed the critical value (1.684), thereby indicating the acceptance of the research hypothesis. This implied that bits and pieces games have an effect on enhancing students’ learning outcomes. Therefore, the game can be a great contribution for English teachers in teaching English descriptive text, in terms of improving content, mechanics, organization, sentence structure, and grammar. ABSTRAKPenelitian ini menganalisis implementasi permainan bits dan pieces terhadap hasil belajar siswa dalam menulis teks deskriptif dalam bahasa Inggris. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen semu. Populasinya siswa SMP dan teknik pengambilan sampel melalui cluster random sampling. Data diambil dari hasil pre- dan post-test pada kelompok kontrol dan eksperimen yang menunjukkan terdapat pengaruh atau peningkatan pada kelompok kontrol dan eksperimen. Nilai rata-rata dari post-test pada kelompok eksperimen sebesar 86.60 dan kelompok kontrol sebesar 62.43 dengan menerapkan tingkat signifikansi 0.05 dan derajat kebebasan (df) 40 (21+21-2), hal ini menunjukkan nilai t-hitung (6.487) lebih besar dari nilai t- tabel (1.684) yang bermakna bahwa hipotesa penelitian ini diterima. Dengan demikian permainan bits dan pieces berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan hasil belajar siswa dalam menulis teks deskriptif. Oleh karena itu, hasil penelitian ini sangat berkontribusi kepada guru Bahasa Inggris yang mengajarkan keterampilan menulis teks deskriptif Bahasa Inggris yang berkaitan dengan peningkatan isi, penggunaan tanda baca, huruf besar dan kecil, pengorganizatian teks deskriptif, dan aturan kata dalam kalimat.How to Cite: Hairul, M.A., Nurhayati.

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of Google Docs collaboration in improving descriptive text writing skills among eleventh-grade students at SMA Lab School Untad Palu. The research was conducted because many students faced challenges in writing descriptive text, particularly in mechanics (capitalization, punctuation, spelling), organization (logical structure and coherence), and content (idea development and relevance). A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control group design was employed. The sample consisted of two groups: the experimental group (n = 30), which was taught using Google Docs collaboration, and the control group (n = 29), which received conventional writing instruction. Students' writing skills were assessed using an analytic scoring rubric adapted from Oshima and Hogue (2006), focusing on three components: mechanics (5 points), organization (35 points), and content (20 points), totaling 60 points, converted to a 100-point scale. The descriptive statistics showed that the experimental group achieved notable improvement, with the mean score increasing from 43.67 in the pre-test to 83.43 in the post-test, whereas the control group showed minimal change from 28.48 to 79.31. The Mann-Whitney U test confirmed a significant difference between the groups, indicated by an Asymp. Sig. value of 0.000 < 0.05. These findings demonstrate that Google Docs collaboration helps students provide real-time feedback, revise their work collaboratively, and organize ideas more effectively, resulting in improved writing performance in mechanics, organization, and content. Therefore, Google Docs is considered and effective digital tool for enhancing descriptive writing skills and is recommended for use in English writing classrooms aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not the use of visual comic strips is effective to improve the descriptive text writing skills of seventh grade students at SMPN Model Terpadu Madani Palu. The researcher used quasi-experimental research design. The sample consisted of two classes: the experimental group (n = 22), which was taught using Comic Strips, and the control group (n = 22), which received conventional writing instructions methods. An analytical scoring rubric was used to evaluate students' writing abilities. It focused on three areas: mechanics (5 points), organization (35 points), and content (20 points), for a total of 60 points that were converted to a 100-point scale. According to the descriptive statistics, the experimental group improved significantly, with the mean score rising from 41.82 in the pre-test to 85.00 in the post-test, whereas the control group changed very little, from 32.27 to 73.41. A significant difference between the groups was established by the Independent Sample t-test, with an Asymp. Sig. value of 0.001 < 0.05. These results show that comic strips facilitate collaborative work revision and better concept organization for students. Therefore, Comic Strips is effective to improve descriptive writing skills of seventh grade students at SMPN Model Terpadu Madani Palu.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Listen-and-Draw technique in enhancing the listening comprehension of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Banawa Tengah. Employing a quantitative approach and quasi-experimental design, two classes were selected: one experimental group taught using the Listen-and-Draw method and one control group taught with conventional instruction. Pretest and posttest assessments were administered to measure student achievement. The results indicated a significant improvement in the experimental group’s performance (mean posttest score = 47) compared to the control group (mean = 33). The t-test analysis (t-count = 9.97 > t-table = 0.0195) confirmed a statistically significant difference between groups. These findings support the use of the Listen-and-Draw technique as an effective instructional method to improve listening comprehension among junior high school students.

Abstract

The Implementation of Genre-Based Approach in Writing Narrative Text aims to examine the effectiveness of the Genre-Based Approach (GBA) in enhancing narrative text writing skills among eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 19 Palu. The research method employed is quasi-experimental with two groups: an experimental group applying GBA and a control group that did not receive this treatment. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test assessments to measure students' writing skill improvements. The findings indicate that the average score of the experimental group increased from 54.55 to 73.62, while the control group improved from 40.07 to 64.15. In addition to score improvements, the quality of students' writing also showed enhancement in aspects of content, organization, vocabulary, language use, and mechanics. This study provides evidence that the Genre-Based Approach can significantly improve students' writing skills.
