Abstract

This quasi-experimental study investigates the effectiveness of self-assessment in the context of Islamic education, specifically focusing on its impact on students’ English speaking performance at Madrasah Aliyah Al-Khoirot Malang. The research adopts a pre-test and post-test control group design to measure students' development in speaking skills. A total of 40 secondary-level students participated, divided equally into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received instruction that incorporated self-assessment strategies, while the control group was taught using conventional methods without self-assessment integration. Data collection was conducted through structured speaking assessments administered before and after the intervention. The results demonstrated a notable improvement in the experimental group's speaking performance, with their mean score increasing from 57.65 (pre-test) to 63.90 (post-test). In contrast, the control group exhibited only a slight increase from 54.70 to 55.80. Statistical analysis using SPSS version 25 and a significance level of α = 0.05 revealed a p-value of 0.039, which is less than 0.05, indicating a statistically significant difference between the two groups. These results confirm that self-assessment positively influences students' speaking proficiency. Beyond score improvements, students in the experimental group also showed increased self-awareness, better self-regulation, and deeper reflection on their speaking abilities, identifying their strengths and areas for improvement more effectively. This suggests that self-assessment fosters not only language performance but also metacognitive skills that are crucial for lifelong learning. This study contributes to the relatively limited body of research on self-assessment practices in Islamic education environments, particularly within madrasah contexts. It highlights the pedagogical value of self-assessment in enhancing speaking skills and suggests that incorporating self-reflective practices in language instruction can lead to more autonomous and engaged learners.

Abstract

This study analyzes deixis in Pamungkas's song "To The Bone" using Levinson's (1983) framework to examine how deictic elements create emotional resonance. A qualitative analysis of the lyrics identified 92 deictic expressions: personal (83), spatial (8), and temporal (1). The predominance of personal deixis (90.2%), particularly first-person ("I", "me") and second-person ("you") references, establishes an intimate singer-listener connection, enhancing the song's confessional tone. Minimal temporal ("now") and spatial ("that", "there") deixis suggests a focus on emotional immediacy rather than specific time/space. Findings reveal deixis functions as: (1) a tool for building intimacy, (2) a marker of authenticity, and (3) a means for listener identification. The study contributes to music pragmatics by demonstrating how deixis shapes meaning in popular music, offering insights for both linguistic analysis and songwriting.

Abstract

This research explores the impact of accent bias on the speaking confidence of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. In various educational contexts, native-like accents, particularly those from American and British speakers, are often idealized, which can create pressure for students to match these accents. Adopting a qualitative approach, the study gathered data through semi-structured text interviews with 20 fourth -semester university students enrolled in an English education program. It is evident that while accent bias may lead Feelings of Insecurity Regarding Accent, social pressure, and Perceptions of the Importance of Accent in Communication, Variation in Speaking Confidence, Impact of Accent Bias on Language Learning, and Relationship Between Confidence and Speaking Ability. The study reveals that a majority of participants feel a societal pressure to adopt native accents, particularly American or British, in order to be perceived as more proficient in speaking. Additionally, some participants reported feelings of inferiority when their accents differed from those of native speakers.

Abstract

English is crucial in Indonesia's educational curriculum, taught early to ensure proficiency by graduation. Its global importance is seen in business, technology, science, and tourism. Mastering English, especially tenses like the Simple Past Tense, is key for effective communication. However, many students struggle with its rules and structure. This study aims to analyze these errors in narrative texts, providing insights and recommendations to improve English education at Jawharot Al Muzakky Islamic Junior High School in Malang. Using descriptive qualitative methods, the authors explored error patterns in the simple past tense among Class 9C students at MTS Jawharot Al Muzakky. Observations, interviews, and analysis of students' written work revealed common mistakes such as omitting the -ed ending on regular verbs and incorrect forms of irregular verbs. These insights can help teachers develop effective strategies to improve student learning and understanding of grammar. The assessment instrument evaluates students' narrative writing using the simple past tense, focusing on grammar, discourse management, punctuation, and neatness, rated on a scale of 1 to 4. Grammar and vocabulary scored 68.75%, indicating moderate difficulty. Discourse management scored 65.63%, showing partial relevance in idea processing. Punctuation use scored 56.25%, with 50% errors. Neatness scored 69.75%, indicating legible but untidy writing. The results suggest students have basic proficiency but need improvement in these areas.
