Abstract

This study examines the challenges of teaching English, specifically listening comprehension, at MA Alhijrah Cimaung. Conventional teaching methods often fail to engage students effectively, leading to disinterest and a gap between learning objectives and achievement. To address this, the study explores the integration of technology, specifically the Powtoon app, as an innovative solution to improve the learning process. The research reveals a significant improvement in listening comprehension for students using Powtoon compared to those in the control group using traditional methods. While the effect size is relatively small, this finding provides concrete evidence of Powtoon's potential in enhancing English language learning at the high school level. Incorporating Powtoon into the curriculum at MA Alhijrah Cimaung can greatly benefit students' understanding of narrative text. The study recommends further integration of technology in English language teaching and suggests conducting additional research to explore the impact of technology on student learning. These efforts aim to enhance educational practices and improve the overall quality of education in schools.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine gender representation in the English for Nusantara textbook for Grade VIII and to explore students’ perceptions of these representations. The research method employed is a qualitative approach involving critical discourse analysis and semi-structured interviews. The analysis draws on Van Dijk’s Socio-cognitive Approach to examine how gender is represented semantically, syntactically, rhetorically, and visually. Data was collected from a criteria-based sample of two students at SMP Negeri 10 Cirebon, both of whom demonstrated strong English proficiency. The results showed revealed that male characters are predominantly represented in active, central roles across stories, visuals, and sentence structures.  In contrast, female characters tend to occupy background or passive roles and are often linked with emotional, domestic, or supportive functions. The use of language also shows a significant disparity in pronoun frequency and character traits, with males described using positive and dynamic adjectives, while females are more often associated with personal appearance and social limitations. The findings suggest that textbooks should strive for balanced portrayals to avoid reinforcing traditional gender stereotypes.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore students' perceptions of the use of Character AI in improving English speaking skills and to identify the limitations or problems encountered by students when practicing speaking with this technology. This study used a qualitative descriptive method conducted in the English Education Study Program at the Prima Bangsa Institute in Cirebon. The participants were eighth-semester students who had used Character AI. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and speaking test. The results of the study show that students have a positive perception of the use of Character AI because it helps improve fluency, pronunciation, and confidence, while also providing more opportunities for practice. However, there are also problems such as technical issues, limited response accuracy, and a lack of natural communication nuances compared to direct interaction. In conclusion, this study confirms that Character AI has great potential as an innovative learning medium for improving speaking skills.
