Abstract

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of the summarizing strategy on improving students’ reading comprehension at SMA Negeri 5 Palu. This research was based on an initial study that showed many students still struggled to understand texts, had difficulty finding main ideas and detailed information, and lacked vocabulary. The researcher used the summarizing strategy as a method to help improve students’ reading skills. This study used a quasi-experimental design. The population was tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 5 Palu, involving classes X M5 and X M3, with 35 and 32 students respectively. To collect the data, the researcher used pre-tests and post-tests to measure students’ abilities before and after the treatment. The results of data analysis showed a significant improvement in reading comprehension. The average score of the experimental group increased from 68.85 to 79.06, while the average score of the control group slightly decreased from 69.33 to 67.52. Data analysis showed a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.050, which means that Ha was accepted. It can be concluded that the summarizing strategy significantly improved students’ reading comprehension.

Abstract

Students in EFL classrooms often exhibit low participation in speaking activities, leading to passive interaction and limited oral practice. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of applying the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) technique on improving students’ speaking skills at SMAN 5 Palu. A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test was employed involving two intact classes selected through purposive sampling: class XI M9 as the experimental group and class XI M7 as the control group, each consisting of 35 students. The experimental group received instruction using the TPS technique, while the control group received conventional instruction. Students’ speaking performance was assessed based on accuracy, fluency, and comprehensibility. Data from pre- and post-tests were analyzed using an independent-samples t-test. The results showed a statistically significant improvement in students’ speaking skills after the implementation of the TPS technique. The experimental mean score increased from 30.20 on the pre-test to 67.14 on the post-test, whereas the control group showed only a slight increase from 30.40 to 41.45. The statistical analysis indicated a significant difference between the two groups, t (68) = 12.20, p < .05. These findings indicate that the Think-Pair-Share technique is effective in enhancing students’ speaking performance.

Abstract

Descriptive speaking skills remain among the most challenging competencies for junior high school students, particularly in contexts where English is taught as a foreign language. Many students struggle with pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehensibility, resulting in limited confidence and difficulty expressing descriptive information. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Describing Picture Strategy in developing the descriptive speaking skills of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 7 Palu. Using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group, the study involved 57 students selected through simple random sampling. The experimental group received treatment using the Describing Picture Strategy, while the control group received conventional instruction. Data were collected using a speaking performance test and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS 25. The results show a significant improvement in the experimental group’s mean score from 59.69 to 71.81, compared to the control group’s increase from 58.24 to 61.08. An Independent Samples T-Test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between the groups. These findings demonstrate that the Describing Picture Strategy effectively enhances students' pronunciation, fluency, and comprehensibility by providing visual stimuli that trigger ideas and reduce speaking anxiety. The study concludes that visual-based, student-centered techniques are beneficial for improving descriptive speaking performance in EFL contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to determine whether the Sustained Silent Reading (SSR) method is effective in improving the reading comprehension of grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 1 Banawa Tengah. This study used a quasi-experimental design with two groups: the experimental group (VIII D) and the control group (VIII A). Both groups were given a pre-test and a post-test of the same type, consisting of multiple-choice, true/false, and detail questions that focused on literal understanding of the narrative text. The experimental group received the SSR method for six sessions, while the control group learned using the conventional method. The results showed a significant improvement in students' reading comprehension after the implementation of SSR. The average pre-test score of the experimental group increased from 44.64 to 74.68 in the post-test, while the control group increased from 42.71 to 63.46. The results of the t-test analysis showed that the t-counted value (3.82) was greater than the t-table value (1.675) at the 0.05 significance level, indicating that the alternative hypothesis is accepted. Thus, the application of the Sustained Silent Reading method has proven effective in improving the reading comprehension of grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 1 Banawa Tengah.

However, few studies have explored students' perceptions of the implementation of PjBL in writing. Therefore, this study investigates students' perceptions of the level of participation, benefits, and challenges in the implementation of PjBL in writing instruction among tenth-grade students at SMA Bala Keselamatan Palu. This study selected 7 students through purposive sampling, and data were obtained through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions in a qualitative phenomenological design. The results showed that they were actively involved in the learning process and increased their confidence in writing, even though they also faced various challenges, including limited vocabulary and differences of opinion within the group. However, most students generally had positive perceptions. In conclusion, PjBL is considered an effective teaching method in writing instruction.

Abstract

Many seventh-grade students struggle with speaking skills due to limited linguistic knowledge and speaking anxiety, despite the expectations of the Merdeka Curriculum for junior high school learners to communicate effectively in English. To address these challenges, group work is often recommended as a strategy to reduce anxiety and increase student participation. However, most previous studies were conducted at higher education levels, leaving limited evidence for younger learners. Therefore, this study aims to investigate whether group work significantly improves the speaking skills of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 18 Palu. A quasi-experimental design was used, involving two intact classes of 28 students each. Both groups completed a pre-test and post-test consisting of three oral questions assessing fluency and comprehensibility. The treatment will be administered over six sessions, from the second to the seventh meeting. The experimental group will use the group work technique, while the control group will receive conventional instruction. The data were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney U Test because the scores were not normally distributed. The findings showed that although both groups demonstrated increased mean scores from pre-test to post-test, the significance value (p = 0.113) exceeded the 0.05 threshold. Thus, the null hypothesis (H0) was accepted, indicating that group work did not produce a statistically significant improvement in students’ speaking skills. These results suggest that group work may require longer implementation or additional support to yield stronger effects for junior high school learners.

Abstract

Speaking self-efficacy plays a crucial role in EFL learners’ oral performance, as it influences confidence, anxiety management, and willingness to communicate. Despite the growing integration of artificial intelligence in language learning, empirical studies exploring students’ perceptions of AI voice-based tools, particularly ChatGPT Voice, remain limited in the Indonesian EFL context, especially among English major students. This study aims to investigate English Education students’ perceptions of using ChatGPT Voice and examine how it contributes to their speaking self-efficacy. Employing a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through preliminary observation interviews and in-depth semi-structured interviews with seventh-semester English Education students at Tadulako University. The findings reveal that ChatGPT Voice positively influences students’ speaking self-efficacy by increasing confidence, reducing speaking anxiety, improving fluency and vocabulary, and enhancing motivation and enjoyment. Despite minor technical challenges, students generally perceived the tool as supportive and effective. This study concludes that ChatGPT Voice serves as a valuable supplementary tool for fostering speaking self-efficacy in EFL contexts.
