Abstract

This study examined the English Education Department's project-based learning challenges and methods. In order to obtain insight into their experiences, the study concentrated on sixth-semester students enrolled at a state institution in Central Java. In conducting this research, qualitative data was used with a case study approach design. To gather the required data, a questionnaire is the data collection instrument used. Several challenges were found, such as difficulty finding theories and previous research related to their project, time management, and overlapping with other lecture assignments. Students then give their strategies to deal with that obstacle by collaborating with peers, breaking down the project into smaller ones to help avoid being overwhelmed, and setting goals and timelines for the project using a calendar planner.

Abstract

This study was done to know the types of Bloom's Taxonomy and Barrett's Taxonomy used in reading comprehension questions of summative assessment made by an English teacher at SMAN 2 Semarang and thedominant type of each taxonomy used. This study was conducted using descriptive qualitative with content analysis research design because its research focused on analyzing reading comprehension inside a summativeassessment made by an English teacher. This research focused on a passive observer who did not actively participate. The study aims to document findings. The data collected from the Bloom Taxonomy checklist revealed that the highest level of analysis (15) was predominant in all the reading comprehension questions. It was observed that the distribution of reading comprehension questions in the summative assessment was not spread evenly. The second dominant was the understanding level, with nine questions. Then, followed by applying the total question of 5. There are two remembering levels—the only questions related to evaluating. Even though the number of LOTS and HOTS questions are balanced, differences in results are shown by analysis using a checklist from Barrett's taxonomy. Low comprehension dominates with a percentage of 65,625%. Then,followed by medium comprehension with a portion of 31,25%. Unfortunately, high comprehension only has a portion of 3,125%. Hence, teachers should provide students with sufficient questions for evaluation grounded in HOTS to cultivate the essential critical thinking skills required for success in the twenty-first century.

Abstract

This study was to confirm a significant correlation between students' engagement with English YouTube podcasts and their listening skills. This co-relational research studied students of grade XI IPS-1 at SMAN 1 Solok Selatan of West Sumatra Province selected from some cluster random sampling technique comprising 36 students. The research employed a listening test and a set of questionnaires to collect the data. As a result of data analysis, this research revealed a positive correlation between the intensity of students' engagement with English YouTube podcasts and their listening skills. The calculated correlation coefficient (r_calculated) for this research was 0.717, surpassing the critical value (r_table) of 0.329 at a significance level of 0.05 and degrees of freedom (df = n - 2). This indicates that the calculated correlation was higher than the critical value (0.717 >0.329). To conclude, the research accepted the alternative hypothesis, affirming a significant correlation between students' intensity in watching English YouTube podcasts and their listening skills. Considering these findings, it is recommended that teachers incorporate YouTube podcasts into their teaching resources, creating a more engaging learning environment and motivating students to use YouTube for educational purposes, thereby enhancing their listening skills. Furthermore, students are encouraged to actively work on improving their listening skills by exploring various YouTube channels, including podcasts and other English audio resources. These efforts will contribute significantly to their language proficiency individually.
