Abstract

Listening skills are rarely emphasized in English classes compared to other skills so there is a need for additional media such as TED Talk. Moreover, it is still rarely used as a learning medium in high school. Therefore, this research aims to investigate secondary school students' responses using TED Talks for their motivation to improve listening skills autonomously. This research uses qualitative methods with questionnaires using Google Forms and Focus Group Discussions using Zoom or Google Meet. The sampling was conducted randomly with 10 participants from class XII students at SMAS Dua Mei in South Tangerang. This study analyzes students' knowledge and perceptions of TED Talk videos as autonomous learning media in listening skills. The researchers are interested in exploring how TED Talk can help students' motivation for autonomous learning and their interest in learning by listening after watching it. The results showed that some students still needed to familiarize themselves with TED Talks. Their responses became more positive after watching the video. Videos that balance an interesting speaker with various expressions, relevant topics, and audio-visual aspects are more likely to be well-received by students. They believe that TED Talks as supplementary material can improve listening skills by motivating them to learn autonomously.

Abstract

The influence of Javanese accents on the pronunciation of English by Indonesia students is still limited. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate how Javanese accents influence students' pronunciation of English and to understand their perceptions of the challenges they face in improving their pronunciation. We employed a qualitative method, utilizing semi-structured interviews, with approximately eight students from various universities in Indonesia who speak Javanese as their mother tongue participating. The collected data will be analyzed by topic to find different patterns and topics related to the influence of accents on English pronunciation. The expected result of this research is to provide a deeper understanding of how Javanese accents influence students ' pronunciation of English, especially in phonetic aspects. The results of this research are also expected to make a significant contribution to pronunciation teaching strategies, enabling teachers to more effectively address the common difficulties faced by students from a Javanese background.
