Abstract

The context of this study is that students' ability to speak English is quite concerning. Students' interest in speaking English is relatively low due to a lack of mastery of vocabulary, and a fear of making mistakes in pronunciation, so they rarely practice it. Students become bored learning English, so their interest in English lessons decreases. Descriptive qualitative research methodologies are used in the research. The research population consisted of MAS PAB 1 Sampali students with a total sample size of 31. The researcher chose 11 students using a purposive sampling technique, in which the sample was determined based on the selection of information sources rather than the number of participants. Methods for gathering data include observation, interviews, and documentation. Data processing involves the reduction of data, the display of data, and the drawing/verification of conclusions. The study's findings are (1) students' perceptions of using the Hello English application revealed that as many as 98% of students believed the application could help improve students' speaking skills, (2) students used Technology progress very well by using it to learn, one of which was using the Hello English application, (3) the Hello English application was very efficient for teachers in helping teach speaking English in class. Based on research findings, the Hello English application is very useful and effective in teaching and learning activities, owing to its easy and practical access on any device, as well as fun features for students that keep them interested in learning English in the future.

Abstract

To boost English major students’ autonomous learning beyond classroom learning through the Self-Access Center (SAC), the provision of learning resources and activities in SAC should meet their needs. The issue that arises is that little is known about the specific needs of autonomous learning in SAC for English major students. This research focuses on autonomous learning based on the needs of digital authentic resources and activities through SAC as accelerated learning outside the classroom for students majoring in English. A mixed method was applied based on the need analysis model by Hutchinson and Waters (1987). Around 51 English major students of UMM as users of “American Corner” (Amcor) UMM were required to fill out the questionnaires consisting of 6 questions adapted from Ortiz (2006) and 16 of them were selected as interview participants. Observation was also held to support both data. The findings revealed the digital authentic resource needed, lacking, and wanted the most by English major students. Additionally, the types of activities needed the most to support autonomous learning in SAC were also described. The implication of the research is for SAC managers to consider future development and recommendations of resource provision as well as ideas for forthcoming programs of SAC based on the identified needs particularly for the English major students.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the 'need analysis' of English for Psychology courses and evaluate the ESP textbook from the point of view of the textbook users at the Faculty of Psychology. A need analysis survey in learning ESP and ESP textbook evaluation was conducted and then analyzed quantitively. The data sources of this research were students of the Faculty of Psychology who were taken by purposive sampling, which amounted to 20 people already in the 4th, 6th, and 8th semesters, the head of the Psychology department, and three lecturers in the Psychology Faculty. The data collection used was a questionnaire and documentation. The data is in the form of questionnaire results and interviews. Documentation technique is used in collecting data, while analysis technique is used in analyzing data, namely reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions and verification. The study results show that language skill materials are crucial for future Psychology students. Regarding speaking skills, students primarily require resources for conversing with current issues that are up-to-date. Regarding the students' need to access psychology journals and textbooks, writing and skills in composing scientific articles, reports, and lab documents are essential. However, the study reveals dissatisfaction among Psychology students with the current ESP textbook, particularly in appearance, visuals, design, layout, and writing materials. Despite some elements meeting their needs, such as layout, content, exercises, and speaking resources, improvements are needed in certain areas. Consequently, it is recommended that the ESP textbook be enhanced to better cater to these requirements, and future researchers undertaking similar studies should consider this focus on English for Specific Purposes (ESP).

Abstract

The use of instructional media has become essential in addressing challenges faced by teachers in delivering effective lessons. This research, therefore, focuses on the development of video as an instructional media for teaching English listening skills to seventh-grade students. The research identifies a gap in traditional teaching methods, where English teachers primarily rely on textbooks, resulting in passive student engagement and limited focus on listening skills. The lack of appropriate instructional media makes the problem more complicated, despite available resources like language laboratories, LCD screens, and sound systems. To bridge this gap, the researcher developed video created with AVS Video Editor to stimulate students' interest and improve listening skills. Hence, the research follows the research and development (R&D) approach proposed by Sugiyono (2010). The development procedure from Sugiyono, then is adapted to: 1) analysis, 2) data collection, 3) product creation, 4) validation of the product, and 5) product revision. The findings highlight the effectiveness of the developed video media in capturing students' attention and aligning with curriculum objectives. The validation process leads to constructive feedback, prompting revisions such as adding illustrations, adjusting audio volume, and improving pronunciation. The final product is in the form of videos containing some listening materials under the topic of Introduction, describing people, and giving direction. It also considers feedback from the experts and the teacher in order to give solutions to the teaching problems and provide valuable media for enhancing English listening skills in seventh-grade students in MTs Al Karimi.

Abstract

Readability of texts is generally determined by the application of readability metrics. In most cases, the learner (grader) is not directly involved in assessing the readability of texts assigned to his/her grade. This study sought to determine the extent of reconcilability of metric and grader readability assessment values on the same texts. The textual data was culled from the Global Series English textbook series used in Ghanaian Senior High Schools for the teaching of the English language. Applying the mixed methods research, primary data was also collected from a total of 150 graders across the 3 grades of SHS in Ghana. Using a descriptive research design, within the constructivist research paradigm, the study reveals that metric and grader readability assessments do not agree to a very large extent. Only two percent (2%) of the texts were found to be suitable for their intended grades at the senior high school. The grader readability assessment of texts was found to be at variance with the metric readability assessment. Whilst most graders found most texts to be readable (over 96%), metric readability assessment found the same texts to be unreadable (about 98%). Both metric and grader readability assessments need to be conducted on the same texts to conclude properly on their realistic readability status before assigning them to respective grades. This is a result of the wide metric-grader readability assessment disparity. Where the grader readability assessment reveals a text to be readable and the metric readability assessment finds the same text to be unreadable, the grader assessment should be considered as that is a more realistic assessment.
