Abstract

This research endeavors to enhance students' vocabulary through the innovative use of flashcards as a teaching tool. Employing a collaborative Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, the study engaged 19 seventh-grade students from VII.2A at SMP N 2 Pulau-Pulau Aru. Over a span of six sessions encompassing two cycles, the research gathered and analyzed two sets of data—tests and questionnaires—administered to the students. The analysis of these datasets revealed noteworthy insights. Initially, during cycle one, the treatment exhibited minimal progress in specific areas. However, after refining particular aspects in cycle two, substantial improvement was observed. Consequently, it is conclusive that there was a significant enhancement in students' vocabulary proficiency through the use of flashcards. This was evidenced by the test analysis, indicating an increase from 3.16% in cycle one to an impressive 22.11% in cycle two. Additionally, students' responses in the questionnaires provided valuable insights. Notably, 14.66% of students strongly agreed, while 4.13% agreed with the teaching approach. Intriguingly, there were no indications of disagreement among the students. Notably, 67% of the data emphasized that utilizing flashcards greatly aided students in memorizing and comprehending concrete, countable nouns taught during the sessions. This robustly supported the effectiveness of flashcards in facilitating a deeper understanding of vocabulary.

Abstract

The aim of this community service project is to investigate the implementation of the "Talk Dice Game" to improve the students' vocabulary skill in sentence construction in the fifth grade students of SD Kristen 1 Dobo which amounted to 28 students (Class VA). Although animals and body parts were previously introduced in English, students’ lexical knowledge was extended to four new categories: hobbies, food, family and jobs. Students played a game in which they rolled three dices to get a topic, a sentence starter, and the style of speaking; and then they each had to read the sentence they created in the style indicated by the third dice. The game promoted the technique of thinking on-the-spot, and also, created some rather surprising sentences. The findings were that not only did the game serve to promote vocabulary retention, it also enabled students to experiment with sentence-construction even with minimal training in grammar. The game supports the value of gamified, scaffolded language learning methods to early English instruction in an Indonesian primary school.

Abstract

This research aims to recognize common vocabulary learning strategies (VLS) and find out the factors that affect the selection and effectiveness of vocabulary learning strategies among sixth-semester English students at PSDKU Aru. The methodology that the researcher used is a mixed method with the questionnaire and interview as the instruments. The questionnaire, used only to identify the VLSs that students commonly use, was adapted from Schmitt's VLS taxonomy (1997). The interview questions are open-ended and focus on VLSs, the factors that influence VLSs, and the difficulties in learning VLSs. The results of this research explained that the most common VLSs that students used were using a dictionary, asking classmates for the meaning, working and practicing with peers/in groups, using English language media (songs, movies, etc.), creating a vocabulary notebook, listening to music with word lists, remembering words through projects, and writing the words on paper and sticking them on the walls of their houses. Most of these commonly used strategies are consolidation strategies, which aim to memorize and become familiar with the words. Furthermore, the results also showed that there are two important factors that influence their choice of strategies for learning vocabulary. These factors are motivation and belief. These factors not only help in the choice of strategies that are good for them but can also affect the consistency of learning. Besides that, using one VLS may encourage students to utilize other VLSs. As a result, these findings provide lecturers and students with information regarding alternate strategies for teaching and learning language in class.
