Abstract

The Independent Learning Curriculum emphasized mastering foundational competencies, including English as a foreign language, to support students' academic development. In this curriculum, each phase of learning has specific learning objectives. Fifth-grade elementary school students, which is categorized as Phase C, need to achieve specific learning objectives in reading skills. However, preliminary studies revealed that many students struggle to meet these objectives, as indicated by their below-average performance and difficulties in mastering reading techniques. To address this issue, this paper aimed to reveal the improvement of students' reading skills through the implementation of Quizizz Paper-Mode and to find out the benefits of Quizizz Paper-Mode in enhancing elementary school students' reading skills. A mixed-method approach was employed to integrate qualitative and quantitative data, which were collected through tests, interviews, and questionnaires. The results of the study revealed the following: (1) Quizizz Paper-Mode improved students' reading abilities by 26.36%; (2) 80.4% of students responded positively to the implementation of Quizizz Paper-Mode, categorized as high; and (3) Quizizz Paper-Mode provided benefits to students' reading skills, with 71.5% categorized as medium. This study highlights the instructional value of Quizizz Paper-Mode as an effective alternative to enhance reading competencies in elementary education, especially in settings where digital infrastructure is limited.

Abstract

Tourism village development in Central Java continues to drive economic growth; however, limited English proficiency among rural tourism actors restricts their ability to fully engage in global tourism opportunities. This community service program aimed to empower residents of Makukuhan Kembang Madu Tourism Village, Temanggung, through communicative English training tailored to real tourism interactions. A total of 35 participants aged 16–45, representing various tourism-related occupations, joined an eight-week training built upon Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) principles. Contextual materials, including product storytelling, homestay communication, and mock tour-guiding, were integrated with local cultural content to foster identity expression and relevance to community livelihoods. Mixed evaluation methods, comprising pre- and post–assessments, classroom observations, and informal interviews, were employed to examine the outcomes. Results showed notable improvement in functional speaking skills, vocabulary recall, and participant confidence, confirmed by increased willingness to interact with simulated foreign tourists and use English to promote local products. Learners also reported increased cultural pride and a greater readiness to engage in tourism-related entrepreneurship. The findings highlight that community-based, context-driven English training can significantly enhance communication competence and socio-economic preparedness in rural tourism settings. Sustainability efforts include continued volunteer-led learning sessions and community learning resources. Future programs are recommended to extend their duration, apply differentiated instruction, and incorporate digital learning support to further strengthen long-term empowerment and tourism competitiveness in the region.
