Abstract

This article drawn from the local tracking study of how college students perceive the process of translating poetry. The aim of this study is to investigate the students’ challenge in translating poetry. The current study based upon the benefit of understanding poetry to build harmony in the society. Writers used descriptive qualitative research as the design of this study. The subject of the study were the sixth semester students of English Education Department of Universitas PGRI Semarang who had passed the Translation 1 subject and join the Translation 2 at the present time. The population of this study was 143 students in sixth semester. Writers then chose 20 students as the sample of this study. Students were assigned to translate English poem entitled ‘Huesca’ into Indonesian. The poem was written by John Conford, an American soldier who was endured on World War. After the assignment project, they were asked to respond the questionnaire related to the process of translating the poem and problems encountered. The finding revealed that most of students admitted that their biggest problem in poetry translation is associated with the linguistic difference. It refers to grammatical differences (source language and target language), lexical choices and meaning ambiguity. There were many factors behind the problems that encounter students in translating the English poem into Indonesian. Factors related to the culture, the use of figurative language, and the different structure between original poem and the target language are considered as main hindrances in translating literary works. The educational implication of the study is that our students need to be familiarized with literary works and its process of translation. However, since this study was only held in 2 months and had limited participants, the result of the study cannot be generalized. Further research, therefore, need to conduct by other researcher in order to get broader insight toward the theme

Abstract

The objective of this research is to provide a depiction of the effects of online science education on children between the ages of 5 and 6 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically in relation to the development of science learning abilities in this age group. This research aims to investigate the challenges and barriers encountered during the execution of science education for children aged 5–6 years at Barunawati 3 Samarinda Kindergarten. The research employs a case study methodology, which centers on the individuals involved in a particular teacher's online science learning case, as a means of adapting to crisis situations. The Barunawati 3 Samarinda Kindergarten has been accredited as "Good" based on the school's established criteria for evaluation. The study employed the interaction model proposed by Milles and Huberman to analyze the data collection methods, which included direct interviews, direct observation, and documentation, with a sample of one teacher, three parents, and three students. The findings indicate that the effects of incorporating online science education were facilitated via WhatsApp Video Calls and assignments completed by students with parental involvement. Additionally, the study examined student reactions during learning activities and the outcomes of instructional methods that did not employ digital learning resources. Hence, the findings of this research offer valuable insights for educational institutions to enhance their online science education programs, thereby facilitating a smooth transition of children to formal schooling.

Abstract

Evaluation is important to measure the achievement of learning outcomes. Multiple choices, form of test, is commonly used in learning evaluation. However, in the real situation shows that multiple choice tests make students choose the answers randomly. This study was conducted to provide a solution by developing a Four Tier Diagnostic Test based on iSpring Suite 9 to identify students' conceptual understanding of Static Fluid. This research methodology employed Research & Development (R&D). The subject in this study were students of the Faculty of Engineering at Universitas Islam Syekh-Yusuf who are studying Basic Physics. Data collection techniques use observation, interviews, tests, validation sheets, and questionnaires. The validation results of material experts are 93%, media experts are 84% so that they are included in the very feasible category. The validity of the test showed that 35 items were valid, and 7 questions were invalid. The reliability of the test is 0.93. The index of difficulty consists of 3 easy, 35 moderate and 4 difficult. The discriminating power of each item included 16 very good questions, 9 good questions, 11 enough questions, 5 bad questions and 1 very bad item. Student response to this instrument is 74.83% included in the high category. This test can identify four levels of students' understanding of concepts, namely understanding concepts, not understanding concepts, partially understanding and misconceptions. Based on the results, the Four Tier Diagnostic Test based on iSpring Suite 9 has met the criteria for a good instrument and is suitable for use.

Abstract

Students study in a variety of ways or styles. Understanding and learning challenges may be impacted by this learning style. One of the numerous types of research is on learning style. Student’s learning styles and diverse learning methods might help them become better writers in English. This research aims to demonstrate how students' learning styles and the development of their writing skill are related. The participants in this research are VIII-A graders at one of the Muhammadiyah private schools in Sidoarjo. This correlation study used a Likert scale questionnaire as the instrument. The answers to the questionnaire were then connected with the students' writing scores using a quantitative research strategy and the correlation with IBM SPSS 26. The researchers found that the result of testing the hypothesis (rcount) was 0.641 and the score (rtable) was 0.515 indicating that the score of rcount>rtable was 0.641>0.515. This means that Ha is accepted and H0 is rejected which has a positive meaning or there is a significant relationship between students' visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles and students' writing skill. This study implies that each student has certain learning style so that in the classroom instruction the teachers need to be aware their different characteristics to optimize the students’ learning outcomes including in English writing class

Abstract

The use of web in the teaching and learning process is one of the fun and challenging learning innovations such as wordwall.net. With this web students can memorize and remember vocabulary with interesting games. Wordwall.net offers a variety of interesting and original vocabulary-building games. The researchers discovered a problem through interview with a teacher: student scores are still low in one area of the assessment, so the purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of using wordwall.net on students’ English vocabulary in SMP Negeri 1 Wonoayu. This research used a true-experimental design with 35 students in the experimental group and 35 students in the control group. A vocabulary test was one of the research tools utilized in this study to gather data. The treatment was carried out for 3 weeks. The data analysis results revealed that there was difference between mean score of pre-test and post-test in both groups. The pre-test mean score was 65.00 (experimental group) and 57.73 (control group) and the post-test average score was 89.13 (experimental group) and 77.90 (control group). With SPSS version 26, an independent sample t-test was used to analyze the data. The result showed that the probability value of both groups is 0.001, so it indicates that wordwall influences students’ vocabulary improvement. Therefore, it might be suggested that applying Wordwall.net was beneficial in increasing students' vocabulary knowledge.
