Abstract

  This community service project aimed to enhance the reading skills of second-semester university students at Universitas Islam Tribakti Lirboyo Kediri and Universitas Nusantara PGRI Kediri through an extensive reading program. The program, conducted from April to July 2025, involved 59 students and included training sessions and seminars focused on extensive reading strategies. The objective was to improve students' vocabulary, reading comprehension, and overall reading interest. This study employed a service-learning approach that included four key stages: investigation, preparation, action, and reflection. During the investigation stage, a pre-test and observations were conducted to assess students' baseline reading abilities. The results of the program showed significant improvements in students' vocabulary, reading comprehension, and reading interest. The program not only helped students understand academic texts more effectively but also fostered a more positive attitude toward reading. These findings suggest that extensive reading can significantly contribute to the development of essential literacy skills in EFL students. The program's success highlights the potential of using extensive reading as a key strategy to enhance students' language proficiency and foster a lifelong reading habit.

Abstract

English listening materials in schools frequently lack relevance to students' lives due to resource limitations. This study aims to explore students' and teacher’s perceptions of AI-generated contextual listening materials. Employing a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through interviews and observations from three ninth-grade students and one English teacher at State Junior High School 1 Sintang, and subsequently analyzed thematically. The findings revealed positive responses from students, as they felt more confident and comprehended the lessons more easily through familiar local content (such as the narrative of Bukit Kelam), effectively reducing their cognitive load. Students also highlighted technical challenges regarding the inconsistent clarity of the AI-generated audio. From the teacher's perspective, AI proved to facilitate the customization of localized materials that are typically difficult to find in conventional resources. However, the teacher emphasized that AI outputs require human editing and collaborative feedback to align with formal pedagogical standards. In conclusion, integrating AI into the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach is highly effective for developing culturally relevant materials and enhancing students' learning motivation, provided it is balanced with appropriate instructional design by the teacher

Abstract

Children residing in the Juvenile Correctional Facility (LPKA) generally experience school dropout, low literacy levels, and limited access to educational opportunities that promote empowerment. These conditions negatively affect their academic abilities, learning motivation, and self-confidence. This community service program was implemented to enhance basic English proficiency while simultaneously fostering creative expression through an integrative learning model that combines experiential language activities with creativity-based tasks. The results of the pre-test and post-test indicate substantial improvement: vocabulary mastery increased by 63%, the ability to construct simple sentences improved by 61%, and the use of functional expressions rose by 65%. Observations and interviews further revealed positive changes in learning attitudes, motivation, and students’ willingness to participate actively. Creative skills also improved significantly, with 80% of participants able to produce English mini posters, 75% successfully developing story cards with clear narrative sequences, 60% capable of presenting their work orally, and 80% demonstrating positive expressions and enthusiasm throughout the activities. These findings suggest that creativity-based language learning not only enhances linguistic competence but also strengthens emotional resilience and self-expression. Overall, the program serves as an effective empowerment strategy for juvenile residents, supporting their academic, psychological, and social development.
