Abstract

This research investigates students’ perspectives on the use of picture strategy in learning descriptive texts at SMA Santo Petrus Medan, Medan. The study employed a descriptive qualitative design, involving 34 students from class XI-B as the participants. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and questionnaires to explore students’ perceptions, experiences, and attitudes toward the use of pictures as learning media. The purpose of this study was to identify the benefits of picture strategy in enhancing students’ understanding and creativity in writing descriptive texts and to determine how students perceive its effectiveness in their learning process. The cognitive domain showed the highest percentage (62.50%), indicating that pictures effectively supported students’ comprehension, imagination, and vocabulary enrichment. The affective domain (20.83%) reflected an increase in students’ motivation, confidence, and interest in learning. Students stated that pictures made learning “more fun, less boring,” and helped them to express ideas with greater enthusiasm. The psychomotor domain (16.67%) demonstrated improvement in students’ writing performance, particularly in organizing ideas and maintaining coherence in their descriptive texts. In conclusion, the picture strategy proved to be an effective and motivating pedagogical tool that enhanced students’ cognitive understanding, emotional engagement, and technical writing skills in descriptive text learning

Abstract

Code-switching by teachers in English learning remains a topic of debate, as it is seen as aiding comprehension, but also raises concerns about increasing students' dependence on their native language. This study aims to analyze students' perceptions of teachers' use of code-switching and its impact on their dependence on Indonesian in English learning. The study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive study design. Thirty students were selected as participants. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis with the aid of NVivo software for coding and theme validation. The results indicate that students positively perceive code-switching as aiding comprehension of complex material, reducing anxiety, and increasing participation and confidence in using English. However, the use of Indonesian does not create permanent dependence. Students utilize their native language as a temporary buffer to grasp concepts before returning to English for communication and practice activities. These findings suggest that purposefully designed code-switching can serve as an effective pedagogical strategy to support comprehension, engagement, and learning independence without diminishing the use of English as the target language.
