Abstract

Writing is one of the essential skills of language. It is a way we can communicate with others. It is considered a skill that needs study and practice. Although writing is important, many students who are learning English assume that writing is a difficult skill because of some elements that need to be considered, such as word choices, grammar, punctuation, spelling, coherence, and many others. Similarly, the use of monotonous learning models by teachers without regard to the student's learning style. The aim of the research was to analyze the influence of the PBL model, the EL model, and students’ learning styles on their descriptive writing skills. This research used a quasi-experimental research design with a pattern of treatment by the level design. The population in this study was all class VII students at SMP Advent 3 Ranotana as many as 23 students (11 women and 12 men) aged 11-12 years in experimental classes who received treatment in the form of PBL learning models and in control classes involving 21 students (8 women and 13 men) using EL model. From the data analysis, it was found that there was no significant difference between the PBL model, and EL model. The learning model has no effect on the student’s descriptive writing skills. There is a significant difference between visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. In this case, learning styles have an effect on the student’s descriptive writing skills. However, the interaction between learning models and styles affects the student's descriptive writing skills

Abstract

Most students struggle with English descriptive writing skills, particularly generating ideas, creating sentences, and developing paragraphs, resulting in a lack of motivation. A teacher-created tutorial video (TCTV) was utilized to address the students' difficulties with descriptive writing skills. This study aims to investigate TCTV media's effect on students' descriptive writing skills and to determine their perceptions of the medium. This research employed a mixed method with an explanatory research design. The study's sample comprised 25 of 98 seventh-grade students from an Indonesian public secondary school in (city) Indonesia. The findings indicated that Zcount is greater than ttable, 26.0 > 1.708. It was concluded that the hypothesis is accepted, indicating that the use of TCTV media affected the descriptive writing skills of the students. In addition, students had good responses about the use of TCTV media in producing a descriptive text since it enables them to cope with the stages of the writing process by adapting the concepts of the Genre-based Approach (GBA) through the stimulus provided by the teacher. It is highly advised that the teacher create appropriate media to assist the students in accomplishing the learning goals. TCTV media can also be designed with the learning purpose, student profile, and student needs in mind.

The research aims to describe the use of local wisdom-based instructional materials in English language teaching. Research focuses on junior high schools in Timor Tengah Selatan, emphasizing local cultural elements like historical sites, legends, and symbols. The data can be obtained through observation on the application of local wisdom-based instructional materials in English language teaching, analysis of lesson plan documents, using interviews, and a series of questionnaires.

Abstract

BIPA has gained significant momentum on a global scale since the Indonesian language (IL) became the official language. Due to the high demand for industry-specific material development, researchers conduct a needs analysis regarding IL as a foreign language. From the standpoint of target situation analysis, this study aims to identify the outcomes of a need analysis of foreign learners concerning industrial-oriented IL skills by utilizing a qualitative methodology through a questionnaire. A total of fifty-two people participated voluntarily. The data analysis was qualitative. The findings revealed that IL skills should be related to the industry context, which covers listening, speaking, reading, writing, and knowledge of language structure. It is also essential to reflect metacognitive strategies through the content on material development. These findings will guide the design of learning material and processes by considering the learners' needs and characteristics from the perspective of BIPA as a foreign language.
