Abstract

This study uses a descriptive design in describing the abilities of students in grade VIII of Junior High School. The ability studied is the ability of students' comparative level in writing simple sentences using English. The ability tested is the degree of comparison of adjectives by giving students a writing test. The data was processed from taking convenience sampling of 20 students who were active in class. The test site was grade VIII students at the State Islamic Junior High School (MTsN) 5 Tebo. The researcher classified students' abilities based on the Madrasah Working Group (KKM) with a standard value of 75 (seventy-five). Students who have a score below 75 (seventy-five), are declared to have low abilities and those who have higher scores are declared to have high abilities. The test results are students with high abilities amounting to 15% who can write simple sentences using degrees of comparison in adjectives. Students with low abilities are 85% who cannot write simple sentences using degrees of comparison in adjectives. So, this study can be a reference in providing lessons on the ability to write simple sentences using adjectives to students in grade VIII of Junior High School.

Abstract

Crude coconut oil (crude coconut oil) is one of the vegetable oil commodities that plays an important role in international trade. Indonesia, as one of the largest coconut producers in the world, has great potential in exporting crude coconut oil; however, its performance remains volatile and faces competition from major rival countries, particularly the Philippines. This study aims to analyze the export competitiveness of Indonesian crude coconut oil in the international market during the period 2015–2024. The study employs a descriptive quantitative approach using secondary data sourced from ITC Trade Map and UN Comtrade. The analytical methods applied include Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Revealed Symmetric Comparative Advantage (RSCA), Growth RCA, and Export Product Dynamics (EPD). The results indicate that Indonesia's crude coconut oil exports have a comparative advantage (RCA > 1), but their competitiveness is not yet stable and is relatively lower than that of the Philippines. The EPD analysis places Indonesian crude coconut oil in the Retreat category, indicating that both Indonesia's export market share growth and global demand growth for crude coconut oil tend to weaken simultaneously. These findings suggest that Indonesia's comparative advantage in crude coconut oil has not yet been converted into dynamic export competitiveness, as reflected in the Retreat position in the EPD analysis and the fluctuating competitiveness growth during the study period.
