Abstract

This study looks at how modeling and deep learning methods are used in teaching English and how they affect vocabulary knowledge and speaking confidence among fifth graders at Tandrawana Public Elementary School 074039. The research used a qualitative approach, involving one English teacher and 20 students. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with the teacher, and document analysis of the ATP (Flow of Learning Objectives) and observation sheets. The data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. To ensure credibility and trustworthiness, triangulation was applied by cross-checking findings from observations, interviews, and documents. This study contributes to existing literature by integrating modeling and deep learning in a real elementary EFL classroom and demonstrating that deep learning activities need to be pedagogically adapted to match primary students’ cognitive and linguistic development. The results showed that the teacher often used modeling by practicing pronunciation, using simple sentences, and having students repeat dialogues. Deep learning was used through visual aids, group work, and exercises that helped students understand and think about vocabulary more deeply. The study found that these methods helped improve students' vocabulary and speaking confidence. However, some activities, like role-playing, were not used as effectively because the students had limited analytical abilities. Overall, using both modeling and deep learning helps students develop their vocabulary and speaking skills, but the way these methods are applied should match the thinking level of elementary school students.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology in education has significantly transformed English language learning, particularly in writing instruction. However, pre-service teachers still face limitations in effectively integrating technology into classroom practices. This community service activity is aimed at enhancing pre-service teachers’ understanding and skills in using Wayground Web as a digital learning platform to supported controlled sentence construction in writing instruction. This community service activity involved ten pre-service teachers from Universitas Nias and was carried out through several stages, including platform introduction, guided practice, learning activity implementation, and evaluation of the activity outcomes. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, documentation, and video recordings. Observation results showed that the participants were able to use Wayground Web effectively in designing and implementing learning activities.Seven out of ten participants achieved Excellent and Very Good performance levels based on the observation results. Questionnaire findings also indicated positive responses, increased confidence, and better understanding of technology integration in teaching. Despite minor technical challenges such as login difficulties and limited prior experience, all participants successfully completed the activity. In conclusion, Wayground Web is an effective learning platform for supporting controlled sentence construction and contributes to the development of both pedagogical and technological competencies among pre-service teachers.
