Abstract

This study aims to analyse the difficulties experienced by female students at Tunas Ilmu Islamic Junior High School in learning English. English is an important subject in the curriculum, but some students still show difficulties in understanding and using the language effectively. This study uses a  qualitative descriptive method with observation, interviews and a questionnaire given to students. The initial results of the essay questionnaire show that 50% of students say they like English lessons, while the other 50% experience difficulties in learning. Meanwhile, the results of the multiple-choice questionnaire showed that students experienced three difficulties, namely difficulty reading sentences, understanding vocabulary, and understanding grammatical concepts. Learning difficulties are a problem that prevents students from following lessons as well as other students in general. Learning difficulties are commonly experienced by students. The results of the study show that the main difficulties students face are in speaking and listening skills, which are caused by a lack of vocabulary, low self-confidence, and limited exposure to English outside the classroom. Another contributing factor is the lack of variety in teaching methods. Therefore, this study is expected to serve as a basis for teachers to design more effective learning strategies that are tailored to the needs of students.

Abstract

This study examined the use of Augmented Reality (AR) integrated with Besemah local wisdom in descriptive-text reading instruction and learning engagement among university EFL students. A quantitative quasi-experimental approach with a non-equivalent control group pretest–posttest design was used. The final analyzable sample consisted of 32 students, with 16 in the experimental group and 16 in the control group. The experimental group received descriptive-text instruction supported by AR-based visual representations of Besemah cultural objects, whereas the control group received conventional instruction without AR. Reading comprehension was assessed across vocabulary, detail information, main idea, inference, and sequence. Learning engagement was measured using a 15-item five-point Likert questionnaire covering behavioral, emotional, and cognitive dimensions. The experimental group increased from 50.00 to 70.00, while the control group increased from 48.00 to 60.00. Between-group differences were significant for both posttest and gain scores, with large effect sizes. Learning engagement was also significantly higher in the experimental group. The findings indicate that culturally contextualized AR was associated with stronger reading outcomes and higher learning engagement in this setting.
