Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation of the Project-Based Learning model to improve English communication skills among seventh-grade students at SMP Antonius Nabire. This research employed the Pre-Experimental Design method, with a sample of 29 eighth-grade students. Data were collected using an oral test (speaking test). The results of the study showed that the application of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model significantly improved students' communication skills in the English subject. Before the implementation of PjBL, the majority of students fell into the failing category with an average score of 57.58%. However, after the implementation of PjBL, there was a significant improvement, with the average student score reaching 94.48%, and the majority of students achieving the "very good" qualification. These results align with various studies that assert PjBL's effectiveness in enhancing communication skills, as students actively engage in discussions, collaboration, and project presentations. In addition to improving academic abilities, PjBL also hones essential social skills needed for 21st-century learning. The N-Gain results showed that all students achieved a high qualification in communication skills, confirming that PjBL is an effective method for significantly increasing student engagement and communication skills.

Abstract

English speaking skills are an important competency that students need to have, especially in facing the challenges of globalization. However, at SMP St. Antonius Nabire, the English speaking skills of grade VII students are still low due to the lack of opportunities to practice and exposure to the language. This community service program aims to improve students' English speaking skills through the English Conversation Club. The methods used are structured discussions, conversation simulations, and light debates in English, which are carried out in weekly sessions for several months. Active student participation in a supportive and pressure-free environment is the main focus of this activity. The results showed a significant increase in students' speaking skills, including fluency, pronunciation, and vocabulary. More than 70% of students experienced an increase in their English speaking skills and increased self-confidence. However, there were several weaknesses, such as limited implementation time and variations in student abilities that required further adjustments. The conclusion of this activity is that the English Conversation Club is effective in improving the English speaking skills of grade VII students at SMP St. Antonius Nabire. In the future, technology integration and expansion of the program to other schools can be the next steps to increase the positive impact of this program.
