Abstract

The study underscores the essential importance of mastering English speaking skills at an early age as mandated by Indonesia’s Merdeka curriculum, which establishes English speaking as a vital subject for assessment in primary education. To ensure the effectiveness of the speaking test used for sixth-grade EFL students, the study focuses on evaluating the validity and reliability of the test. Using a qualitative methodology that combines interviews with an English teacher serving as the rater and document analysis, the research investigates multiple facets of test quality. The findings demonstrate that the speaking test is valid through the application of content validity—confirming the relevance and representativeness of test items—and consequential validity, which considers the implications and fairness of the test outcomes. Moreover, reliability is verified via intra-rater reliability, indicating that the scoring is consistent when conducted by the same evaluator over time. Ultimately, the study concludes that the speaking test for sixth-grade primary school EFL students possesses excellent quality in both validity and reliability. Consequently, it suggests that other educational institutions with similar levels and objectives may confidently adopt or adapt the test’s design, scoring rubric, and rating procedures to improve their own assessment practices

Abstract

In the context of globalization and the increasing accessibility of English-language media, movies have become a significant source for learning about different cultures. As English has become a global lingua franca, exposure to English-language movies offers learners valuable opportunities to engage with diverse cultural narratives, values, and social norms. This study explored the effect of English movies on intercultural awareness among English learners. Particularly, it explored how learners’ preferences for specific movie genres shaped their understanding of cultural differences and similarities. The present study used thematic analysis to analyze interview data from 14 English learners, aged 18 to 25, selected through convenience sampling. Participants were asked about their favorite genres and how they believed these movies influenced their perceptions of other cultures. The findings suggested that English movies significantly contributed to intercultural awareness by offering learners a deeper understanding of cultural practices, communication styles, and societal values. Genres such as comedy and romance helped participants reflect on humor, relationships, and individual freedom, highlighting cultural contrasts between their home cultures and Western norms. Furthermore, animation films introduced learners to unfamiliar cultural traditions and values in an engaging and accessible way. The research also emphasized that movies shaped learners’ intercultural perspectives, both intentionally and unintentionally. This study contributed to the growing field of intercultural communication and highlighted the potential of movies as means of fostering intercultural awareness, offering valuable insights for educators and learners seeking to enhance understanding in cultural diversity.
