There are many techniques to avoid plagiarism in academic writing, paraphrasing is the most important one. Students often struggle with paraphrasing their quotations correctly and effectively. Furthermore, to overcome this challenge it is important for students to apply some paraphrasing techniques in their writing. The purpose of this study is to describe the paraphrasing techniques used by students and the most dominant techniques used in students' research proposal assignments. This study uses qualitative research that examines 58 paraphrases from 8 research proposal assignments of fifth semester students of English Education Study Program, Muhammadiyah University of Kotabumi. The category of paraphrasing techniques from Bailey 2015 is used in this study as well as the instrument to collect data. The instrument used is document analysis. Data analysis is carried out in several stages: collecting data, identifying data, finding the original source of data, comparing the original source and paraphrase, analyzing data, and interpreting data. The findings show that there are three paraphrasing techniques applied in students' research proposal assignments. Those three techniques are changing vocabulary with synonyms, changing the word class, Changing the word order. Researchers also found that the most dominant technique used by students in writing research proposals was changing vocabulary with synonyms. The paraphrasing technique can be effectively utilized in academic writing, particularly by students, as it allows for the avoidance of plagiarism while simultaneously encouraging the development of original ideas. Considering that this study only focuses on paraphrasing techniques without examining potential errors, future research is suggested to investigate various forms of errors in paraphrasing, not only in surface structure but also in the paraphrasing strategies used.

Abstract

The problems in this research were that the ninth-grade students of MTsN 2 North Lampung had low English language skills, limitations in mastering English vocabulary, low learning motivation, and a less of interest in learning English. In addition, teachers had not applied much variation in English teaching techniques, and games were rarely used as a learning method in English classes. To overcome these problems, the researcher applied a gamification strategy as an alternative method to improve students’ English vocabulary mastery. This study aimed to find out the influence of the gamification strategy towards English vocabulary mastery at the ninth-grade students of MTsN 2 North Lampung in the academic year 2025/2026. The population of this research was all ninth-grade students, totaling 224 students. The sample consisted of two classes: IX.1 as the experimental class and IX.2 as the control class, each consisting of 33 students, selected using the purposive sampling technique. The research method used was a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests to measure students’ vocabulary mastery before and after the treatment. The instrument used was a multiple-choice test consisting of 40 validated and reliable items. The data were analyzed using normality, homogeneity, and hypothesis tests with a t-test formula. The results showed that the average post-test score of the experimental class was significantly higher than that of the control class. The t-test result indicated that tobserved > ttable (0.937 > 0.334) at a significance level of 0.05, meaning that Ha was accepted. This finding shows that there is a significant influence of gamification strategy towards English vocabulary mastery at the ninth-grade students of MTsN 2 North Lampung in the academic year 2025/2026. Therefore, gamification can be considered an effective and enjoyable learning strategy to enhance students’ engagement and vocabulary acquisition in English learning.
