Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of using YouTube as a media tool in conjunction with Vlog Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) to improve high school students' speaking abilities. This study used a quasi-experimental desing. While the control group adhered to a traditional curriculum that excluded vlogs and digital media, the experimental group actively participated in Vlog TBLT sessions, where students produced, edited, and engaged with YouTube video content. The findings showed that students' speaking skills significantly improved after being exposed to the Vlog TBLT technique. Compared to the passive learning seen in traditional approaches, the active participation demanded by vlog-based assignments allowed for a more deep and engaged learning experience, producing better results. Additionally, the findings implied that using YouTube vlogs in language instruction not only improved speaking ability but also fostered higher levels of student interest and involvement. This study had important ramifications for teachers looking to integrate digital media into their lesson plans. This study offered a viable substitute for conventional educational approaches that might not be able to satisfy the demands of today's students by demonstrating that Vlog TBLT with YouTube could be a potent instrument in contemporary language instruction. In the end, this study promoted a change to more creative and captivating teaching methods that used technology to improve language learning results.

Abstract

In the context of senior high school education, this study examines the relative contributions of visual learning style and self-efficacy on students' reading comprehension. 120 eleventh-grade students were chosen for the study using stratified random sampling, which was framed inside a quantitative correlational research design. A standardized reading comprehension exam, a self-efficacy scale, and a validated visual learning style questionnaire were among the tools used to collect the data.Self-efficacy emerged as the stronger predictor, however both visual learning style and self-efficacy had a statistically significant impact on reading comprehension, according to multiple regression analysis. These results highlight how crucial it is to support kids' self-belief and cater to their unique learning styles in order to improve reading performance. With a focus on the incorporation of visually enhanced instructional tactics and self-efficacy-enhancing interventions into English language teaching practices, the study provides pedagogical implications for educators and curriculum developers.
