Abstract

Listening, the most commonly utilized language skill, is paramount in everyday communication and educational settings. Recognizing the significance of listening comprehension and the challenges associated with teaching it, researchers have explored innovative methods such as podcasts and audio scripting to enhance listening skills. This study examines the efficacy of employing podcasts through the audio scripting method in improving students' listening abilities. The research adopts a quasi-experimental design with an equivalent control group to investigate the impact of this method on listening learning. The experimental group received instruction through podcasts and audio scripting, while the control group followed traditional listening exercises. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to both groups to measure listening proficiency. The findings indicate a positive correlation between the audio scripting method and enhanced listening skills, with the experimental group showing significant improvement compared to the control group. These results suggest that audio scripting is an effective pedagogical approach for enhancing listening comprehension. Consequently, incorporating audio scripting into the curriculum offers a promising avenue for bolstering students' listening proficiency, which is crucial for their academic success and professional development in healthcare. Further research is recommended to explore this method's long-term effects and potential applications across different educational contexts.

Abstract

This literature review explores the evolving landscape of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and examines how traditional methods can be integrated with modern educational needs to enhance language instruction. Initially, ESP focused on specialized vocabulary and discourse practices within specific professional fields, relying heavily on textbook-based instruction and rigid methodologies. These traditional approaches, while foundational, have been critiqued for their limited flexibility, engagement, and broader communicative development. Recent advancements in educational technology have introduced new opportunities for ESP, including interactive learning platforms, personalized instruction, and increased accessibility. These innovations address several limitations of traditional ESP methods by making learning more engaging and adaptable to diverse learner needs. The review highlights the benefits of integrating technology into ESP instruction, such as enhanced student engagement and personalized learning experiences. To bridge the gap between traditional and modern approaches, a balanced method combining face-to-face instruction with digital tools is proposed. Blended learning models and collaborative online platforms offer a more holistic and effective ESP education. However, challenges such as resource constraints, digital literacy, and appropriate assessment methods remain. The review concludes by emphasizing the importance of adopting a balanced approach that incorporates both traditional and modern methods to meet the evolving needs of ESP learners. Future research should focus on overcoming existing challenges and developing innovative solutions to further enhance ESP instruction in a rapidly changing educational environment. Keywords: English for Specific Purposes (ESP), traditional methods, educational technology, blended learning, personalized instruction, interactive learning, digital tools, resource constraints, digital literacy, assessment methods.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between eating habits and food presentation with food acceptance in the free nutritious meal program at SMPN 36 Bandar Lampung in 2025. The background of this study is the importance of good eating habits and attractive food presentation to improve students' food acceptance, thereby ensuring the program runs effectively. The study used a cross-sectional design with 88 respondents selected through total sampling. Eating habits data were collected using a questionnaire, food presentation was assessed through an observation sheet, while acceptance was measured using the food residue weighing method. Analysis included univariate analysis for frequency distribution and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that most students had good eating habits (59.1%), rated food presentation as sufficiently appealing (58.0%), and had good food acceptance (56.8%). Bivariate test results showed no significant relationship between eating habits and food acceptability (p 0.05), but there was a significant relationship between food presentation and acceptability (p 0.05). In conclusion, food presentation influences acceptability, while eating habits do not. It is recommended that program managers pay attention to the visual aspects, aroma, and portion sizes of food to support program success.
