<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of the guided inquiry learning model on students' ability to transform hikayat into modern short stories. This research employed a quantitative approach with an experimental method and used a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The sample consisted of 31 students from class X-2 at SMA Santo Petrus Medan in the academic year 2024/2025. The instruments used were tests (pretest and posttest) and a student perception questionnaire, both validated by experts. The normality test results showed that the data were normally distributed, with significance values of 0.60 > 0.05 for the pretest and 0.75 > 0.05 for the posttest. The average pretest score was 64.22, which increased to 82.25 in the posttest, showing a gain of 18.03 points. The questionnaire results showed an average score of 4.4 out of 5, categorized as very high, indicating a highly positive response from students. The t-test analysis revealed that the t-count (8.027) was greater than the t-table (1.697), with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (H₁) is accepted, and the null hypothesis (H₀) is rejected, which indicates that the guided inquiry learning model significantly affects students’ ability to transform hikayat into short stories.]]>
