Abstract

This study conducts a review to analyze the pragmatic elements in Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar, focusing on how these elements contribute to the book's effectiveness as a tool for engaging young readers and enhancing language learning. The study addresses two main questions: (1) how pragmatic features such as speech acts, implicature, deixis, and conversational maxims are used in the book to convey meaning and facilitate interaction, and (2) the implications of these pragmatic elements for teaching English to children. This qualitative study employs content analysis to examine the book's text and illustrations through a pragmatic lens. The review identifies that The Very Hungry Caterpillar employs declarative and imperative speech acts to invite reader participation and enhance engagement. Implicature is used to convey implicit meanings related to the caterpillar’s growth and transformation, supported by contextual cues and illustrations. The study highlights that these pragmatic elements can influence educational strategies. Interactive reading sessions, activities focusing on deictic expressions, and exercises that encourage inference and adherence to conversational maxims are recommended as practical applications. These methods support early literacy development and promote meaningful language use, providing effective tools for educators to enhance language acquisition and communication skills in young learners. By integrating findings from existing research on pragmatics and children's literature, this study offers new insights into the role of pragmatic elements in early childhood education. The practical applications derived from the book’s use of language features underscore its value as an educational tool, contributing to improved teaching practices and language learning outcomes for young children.

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to explore the evolution and implications of curriculum reforms in English Language Teaching (ELT) in Indonesia, focusing on the challenges and opportunities these reforms present for educators and learners. This research is a qualitative study that examines the historical development of ELT curricula, pedagogical shifts, teacher and student adaptations, contextual challenges, and future recommendations. The sample of this research includes education policymakers, ELT educators, and students across different regions of Indonesia. The data were gathered by using interviews, surveys, and document analysis, and were analysed by employing thematic analysis to identify key trends and insights. The findings showed that while recent curriculum reforms have made significant strides in introducing competency-based learning, critical thinking, and digital literacy, they have also highlighted systemic challenges such as resource inequalities, regional disparities, and varying levels of teacher readiness. In conclusion, the research suggests that future curriculum reforms should focus on addressing these challenges through equitable resource distribution, enhancing teacher professional development, and adapting the curriculum to better meet the socio-cultural and linguistic diversity of Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores students' experiences and perceptions of using audio-visual media in supporting their pronounciation skills. A qualitative descriptive design is used to captures detailed and nuanced insights into participants’ experiences. Ten undergraduate students majoring in English Education were purposefully selected as participants to provide in-depth perspectives. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, which encouraged open discussions while addressing themes closely aligned with the research objectives. This study reveals that students commonly use YouTube videos, language learning apps like Duolingo, and movies or TV shows as audio visual media to practice pronunciation. They also employ techniques such as mimicking native speakers, shadowing, and recording and playback to refine their speech. As a result, students report noticeable improvements in articulation, clarity, intonation, and fluency. The combination of exposure to authentic speech patterns, feedback, and consistent practice enables students to enhance their pronunciation, gain confidence in speaking, and communicate more naturally. These findings underscore the value of integrating audio-visual media into pronunciation practice for English learners.

Abstract

The research aimed to explore the application of Webtoon media in increasing the vocabulary achievement of grade 11 students at SMAN 1 Karangbinangun. This was because learning had been perceived as boring, which made it difficult for students to memorize vocabulary. The lack of technology integration in learning contributed to this issue. The research employed the classroom action research method. It was carried out in two cycles. Data collected through observation sheets, tests, and questionnaires indicated significant enhancement in students' vocabulary achievement. The research results showed that in cycle 1 and cycle 2, students achieved a score of >75, with 0% of students in the pre-test, 25% in post-test 1, and 84% in post-test 2. Furthermore, the results of observations and questionnaires revealed that the use of Webtoon media had helped improve students' vocabulary mastery. The study concluded that Webtoon media, combined with contextualized vocabulary activities, effectively enhanced students’ engagement, creativity, and knowledge. It not only motivated students but also supported the integration of technology and materials in English language teaching.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is essential in English learning, yet many junior high school students struggle to understand descriptive texts because of limited vocabulary, difficulty identifying key ideas, and low engagement. This study investigated students’ perceptions of the Bumper Stickers Strategy as a visual–textual technique to support comprehension. Using a descriptive quantitative survey, data were collected from 40 seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Kayuagung using an 18-item Likert-scale questionnaire covering perceived effectiveness, engagement, motivation, clarity, and ease of use. Instrument validity was confirmed using Pearson product-moment correlation, and reliability was high (α = 0.84). Descriptive statistical analysis showed a positive overall perception with a mean score of 3.78, indicating that the strategy was effective, clear, easy to use, and helpful in organizing information visually, although engagement and motivation received slightly lower ratings. The findings suggest that the Bumper Stickers Strategy is a beneficial instructional tool for enhancing reading comprehension, supporting cognitive processing, and promoting creative learning, with the potential for broader application in various educational contexts.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of peer tutoring as a collaborative instructional approach to improve reading comprehension among EFL secondary school students. A pre-experimental design was employed over six sessions, consisting of four treatment meetings. The participants were thirty-six eleventh-grade students from a secondary school in Lubuklinggau who were enrolled in a reading comprehension course. Data were obtained through a reading comprehension test administered twice, namely as a pre-test prior to the intervention and a post-test following the treatments. The findings demonstrated an increase in the students’ mean score from 65.00 in the pre-test to 75.00 in the post-test. Moreover, the paired-samples t-test revealed a calculated t-value of 8.196, which exceeded the critical t-table value of 1.684. These results confirmed the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). Thereby indicating that Peer Tutoring exerted a significant and positive effect on the reading comprehension achievement of EFL secondary students.
