Abstract

Incorporating ICT competencies into curricula, syllabuses, or course outlines is crucial to facilitate 21st century learning. However, as a receptive skill that the learner needs to develop, listening also requires supporting materials. such as ICTs, which can support instructors in providing the curriculum. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to create listening course syllabuses for the English Language Education Study Program (ELESP) that include ICT competencies. This research used Design and Development Research (DDR) as the methodology for their study. In this study, fourteen listening curricula from five Indonesian institutions served as the source of data. The following are the findings of this study: First, the ICT competencies are primarily incorporated, either explicitly or implicitly, in the following components: Learning Indicators (I), Learning Objectives (Lob), Teaching Method (TM), Materials (M), Assessment (AE), and Learning Media (LM). Furthermore, most integrated competencies in the current listening syllabuses are related to the utilization of audio and video files. Technology literacy, on the other hand, rises to the most applied level of ICT competencies, meaning that the ICT competencies included in the current listening curricula are still at the level of comprehension and use. Second, six methods for incorporating ICT Competencies into listening syllabuses were suggested by this study. Third, the study suggested creating integrated listening curricula for ICT competencies that encompass all ICT competency levels. Twelve components and a skill-based curriculum were used in the suggested curricula.

For non-linguistic challenges, the challenges are lack of practice, lack of confidence/language anxiety, environment factor, learning process/learning method and lack of motivation. To overcome the challenges, some strategies are proposed for both categories of challenges.

Abstract

UMKM actors in Puncak village do not understand the importance of business legality, including having a Business Identification Number (NIB). This is in line with the increasing number of UMKM actors in Puncak Village. The business licensing process, which is considered complicated and time-consuming, is the main obstacle. NIB is important for UMKM players. NIB processing is done through the OSS (Online Single Submission) system. In addition, many UMKMs in Puncak Village do not have a design or logo on their product packaging, and some existing UMKMs need to be redesigned. The method used is education on how to make NIB through OSS door to door to several UMKMs in Puncak Village. The results of this service are the issuance of NIB, packaging designs and new product logos for UMKM players in Puncak Village. This step was taken to support Puncak Village towards a smart village, where one of the main indicators is a smart economy. UMKMs play a role as the main driver of village economic activities, so strengthening UMKM players is very necessary. By having NIB and good product packaging, UMKMs in Puncak Village can contribute significantly in realizing a smarter and more competitive village economy.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of Self-Selected Reading (SSR) on enhancing students’ reading comprehension within the Extensive Reading Course at La Tansa Mashiro University. Utilizing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design, the research involved 20 undergraduate participants who engaged in interest-driven reading over two instructional cycles. Data were gathered through comprehension tests, classroom observations, and student reading logs, then analyzed using both qualitative and quantitative methods. Findings from the first cycle revealed that 62.5% of students demonstrated active engagement, yet only 35% achieved the benchmark score of 70 or higher. In contrast, the second cycle showed significant improvement, with 86.7% of students actively participating and 95% attaining the targeted comprehension score. These outcomes highlight a marked advancement in reading performance following the integration of SSR. The study concludes that embedding SSR into the Extensive Reading curriculum significantly enhances not only students’ reading proficiency but also cultivates a more positive disposition toward reading. It recommends that educators incorporate SSR to promote reading engagement and support the development of autonomous, motivated readers.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of applying the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) strategy on students’ reading comprehension of descriptive texts among eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 32 Medan. The research was motivated by observations that students struggled with reading comprehension due to monotonous teaching methods that lacked student engagement. Using an experimental design, the study involved two groups: the experimental group was taught using the TPS strategy, while the control group received conventional instruction. Both groups completed a pre-test and post-test comprising multiple-choice questions focused on descriptive texts. The results revealed a significant improvement in the reading comprehension scores of students in the experimental group. The mean score of the experimental group increased from 48.5 in the pre-test to 78.625 in the post-test, whereas the control group showed only a slight improvement, from 56.25 to 58.75. Statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test confirmed the effectiveness of the TPS strategy in enhancing students’ reading comprehension. These findings suggest that the TPS strategy is a beneficial approach for improving student engagement and comprehension in reading, particularly for descriptive texts.
