Abstract

This Classroom Action Research study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of enhancing students' listening comprehension through picture dictation in the 8th G class of SMPN 2 Kota Sorong, with a sample size of 27 students. The research instrument included pre-test and post-test listening comprehension assessments, supplemented by visual stimuli to evaluate students' ability to understand spoken language and make inferences. A survey was administered to gather students' feedback on their engagement with picture dictation activities. The data analysis involved comparing pre-test and post-test scores, utilizing statistical tests to assess improvements in listening skills. The data indicates that the students' average score on the pretest or diagnostic test was 61.56. During the posttest 1 of the cycle, the mean score was 73.97. After administering treatment in the second cycle, the average score increased to 84.31. It showed that the use of picture dictation enhanced the students' listening comprehension. The results indicated a significant enhancement in students' listening comprehension following the implementation of picture dictation activities. The study's findings suggest that integrating visual aids in listening tasks can effectively support students' comprehension skills and promote active learning in the classroom setting.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the potential impact of the Tongue Twister Technique on the pronunciation skills of eighth H pupils at SMPN 2 Kota Sorong. The research employed a pre-experimental research design in relation to the purpose. The sample for this study comprised 26 eight H students from SMPN 2 Kota Sorong. The researcher employed a reading exam for both the pretest and posttest in data collection. The researcher utilized the SPSS 20 software to examine and calculate the data. Upon doing an analysis of the paired sample T-test results, it was determined that the Alternative hypothesis, which posits that the Tongue Twister technique has an impact on the pronunciation of eight H pupils at SMPN 2 Kota Sorong, is supported, whereas the Null hypothesis is denied. Furthermore, the obtained P-value (0.001) is greater than the critical P-value (0.05). This indicates a statistically significant difference in the students' pronunciation scores between the pretest and posttest. The impact of the Tongue Twister technique on pupils' pronunciation can be inferred.
