Abstract

This study examines how the Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy enhances students' abilities in descriptive writing. This study utilized a pre-experimental research design featuring a one-group pre-test and post-test approach, involving a total of 21 participants. The main tool for data collection was a writing test that evaluated five key components: organization, punctuation, grammar, vocabulary, and content. The findings revealed that the average score before the test was 65.65, which falls into the poor category, whereas the average score after the test rose to 81.67, placing it in the good category. The pre-test exhibited a standard deviation of 4.37, while the post-test demonstrated a standard deviation of 5.68. The analysis conducted using a paired t-test yielded a t-value of 5.09, surpassing the critical t-table value of 2.021 at a significance level of 0.05, thereby indicating a statistically significant enhancement in students’ writing performance. The results indicate that the TTW strategy serves as a potent instructional method that boosts student engagement and fosters the growth of writing abilities. Consequently, it is advisable for educators to integrate the TTW strategy as an alternative approach in writing instruction to enhance student engagement in text creation and elevate their overall writing skills.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of using inspiring novels as instructional media to enhance students’ reading comprehension. A pre-experimental design with one group pre-test and post-test was employed, involving 20 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through reading comprehension tests administered before and after the treatment. The intervention consisted of seven sessions in which students engaged with inspiring novels through group reading and comprehension activities. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students’ reading performance. The mean score increased from 65.5 (SD = 10.50) in the pre-test to 78.5 (SD = 7.45) in the post-test. A paired-samples t-test confirmed that the improvement was statistically significant (t = 10.23, p < .05). Beyond score gains, classroom observations indicated that students were more motivated, demonstrated richer vocabulary acquisition, and actively engaged with the reading materials. These results suggest that inspiring novels are an effective medium for improving reading comprehension in EFL contexts. By combining narrative engagement with structured comprehension tasks, this approach fosters both academic achievement and learner motivation.

Abstract

The development of technology has enabled language teachers to improve their learning objectives, media and systems. This study aimed to explore the effectiveness of the ELSA Speak Application to enhance EFL students’ pronunciation fluency and students' perspectives towards the use of the ELSA Speak App as mobile-assisted language learning at SMKS Kesehatan Babussalam Boddie, Pangkep. The research involved eight tenth-grade students in one experimental group. It employed pretests, a posttest, and a questionnaire for data collection. Both descriptive and inferential statistics methods were used to analyze the data. The analysis using Descriptive Statistics and the Paired Samples t-test revealed a significant improvement in students' pronunciation proficiency after the treatment. The mean score difference of -36.25 indicated a substantial increase in post-treatment scores, with a p-value of 0.000 confirming the results were statistically significant. The confidence interval of -39.96 to -32.54 further supports the effectiveness of the intervention. The study provided several recommendations for both teachers and learners to integrate mobile applications in the language classroom, especially ELSA Speak to improve English speaking skills in terms of pronunciation in the EFL context.
