Abstract

Research has indicated the importance of classroom interaction as one of the determinant factors for language learning to be successful. However, with the fact that the online learning mode has been a new norm in the education context, creating a supportive classroom interaction is considered challenging. Both the teachers and students rely on the technological resources to interact both synchronously or asynchronously. Although theoretically, the online platforms are available to make interaction more explicit, it seems that interaction among learners during online class is either more difficult to create or is not fully encouraged. This research intends to answer two questions, firstly, what challenges students face which potentially prevent them from participating in classroom interaction? And secondly, what can be done to improve the quantity and quality of classroom interaction to maximize learning. An online survey is conducted to explore possible challenges in creating interactive learning activities as well as strategies to improve classroom interaction. It is expected that the research may offer insights for instructors and educators to have a more meaningful classroom interaction and engage learners more effectively.

Abstract

As assessment becomes more important in education, teachers must be advanced in both assessment and teaching course materials. The most recent way of assessing the performance of students in listening classrooms is value-added assessment using Google Sites as e-portfolios, one of among the strongest instruments used to assess the efficacy of teachers as well as recognise growth in students. Nonetheless, the use of e-portfolios in EFL students' listening classrooms and how it influences their learning enjoyment remains undetermined due to neither researchers nor students have addressed these issues in depth, and studies on using Google Sites as an e-portfolio-based assessment for teaching listening comprehensions have also been underutilised. Thus, this research aims to gain insight towards EFL students' views on using Google Sites as an e-portfolio-based value-added assessment tool in listening classrooms. It made use of a qualitative case study and included second-year university students. Students' course reflections and semi-structured interviews were both utilised to collect data, which was thereafter analysed qualitatively using coding and thematic analysis. The results of the study revealed that creating e-portfolios with Google Sites proves helpful in assessing students' learning achievement, tracking and measuring students' progress, and diagnosing deficiencies that need to be addressed. This study renders a recommendation for the use of other well-developed assessment tools in future studies.

Abstract

The conditions of human personality and motivation significantly influence all activities undertaken, including during the learning process. The ability to recite poetry is one of the learning achievements in the Indonesian language subject in the realm of literature. This research aims to identify the conditions of personality types, learning motivation, and the ability to recite literary poetry in vocational school (SMK) students. In addition to describing each component, these three variables will be interconnected to determine the strength of the relationships that occur. The research method used is a quantitative method with a correlational research design. The population used consists of 10th-grade students at SMKN 12 Surabaya, with the research sample being 32 students from the X-2 class majoring in Creative Metal Crafts and Jewelry. Data collection is carried out using questionnaire and observation techniques. After the data is collected, a multiple correlation analysis is performed with the aim of demonstrating the relationship between the three research variables. The results of this research include: 1) The personality type of X-2 students majoring in Creative Metal Crafts and Jewelry at SMKN 12 Surabaya tends to be introverted; 2) The learning motivation of X-2 students majoring in Creative Metal Crafts and Jewelry at SMKN 12 Surabaya is in the Very Low category; 3) The ability to recite poetry of X-2 students majoring in Creative Metal Crafts and Jewelry at SMKN 12 Surabaya is classified as insufficient or falls into category D; 4) The personality type (X1) and learning motivation (X2) variables together have a positive and significant correlation in the Moderate category with the ability to recite poetry variable (Y), with a correlation coefficient value of 0.526.

This study applied Classroom Action Research as the research design. This study was conducted in two cycles at one of the Vocational high schools in West Java. The participants of this study were 21 students of class X. Class observations, tests, and questionnaires were used as data collection techniques. The data then were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The result of the analysis shows that students' grammar mastery skills developed, in Cycle I the average score was 72.8 while in Cycle II, the average score was 91.9. The students also responded well to the use of Baamboozle in learning grammar in which they had good perception of activities using game-based learning with the help of Baamboozle.

Abstract

Pre-writing is a preparation process before writing where students gather ideas, organize information, and plan their writing so that pre-writing has a significant influence on student writing outcomes. This study aims to analyze the effect of using whisper and write games as students' pre-writing activities on the descriptive writing abilities of the seventh-grade students at MTs Mamba'us Sholihin Gresik. This research uses class action research (CAR). The results showed that the improvement was seen from the cycle I and cycle II learning that had been implemented, comparing between cycle I and cycle II. The increase in learning outcomes was 76.19%, the increase obtained from the evaluation results in the first cycle was 14.28% and the second cycle was 90.47%. the learning outcomes of the last cycle show that the mastery of learning exceeds the KKM of 75%. Based on the results of the study it was explained that the use of whispering and writing as pre-writing activity games can help to understand and improve students' skills in writing descriptive text. and this can be seen from the increase in the percentage of student scores in each cycle. and the application of CAR can help students achieve the KKM target. The author admits that the writing of this research has several limitations. The limitation of this study is the inappropriate timing of the research because many agendas clashed with the school, so it is hoped that further research can adjust the time to be appropriate.
