Abstract

Socrative as one of educational technologies provides the students an ease to learn language through reading activities. They can practice reading on screen as the students in global era have commonly familiarized with. However, the teacher can apply certain reading strategies for students’ understandings on materials when trying to integrate technology for reading. Thus, this research proposes to investigate the effectiveness of Socrative and Moodle in reading classrooms that employ Kow-Want to Know-Learned (KWL) strategy. By using causal comparative study, seventy students of English Department at one of Islamic state universities in East Java Indonesia who are in the third semester are divided into intervention and control groups. The previous group is directed to read by using Moodle and do quiz with Socrative, while the latter read and do the quiz in Moodle. Here, KWL strategy is integrated with both technologies. The results of study exemplify that there is no significance difference between the students in the intervention and the control group. However, the mean scores of posttest on the intervention group increased better than the control group.

The data collected were analyzed using the descriptive content analysis method. Along with the two researchers, the study involved an inter-rater in order to augment the reliability of the results. He was selected among the English staff based on a random sampling technique. The findings of the research indicated that the comprehension questions of the instructional materials are characterized by the initiations of a preponderance of text-based comprehension sub-skills in general and recognition of comparison and details sub-skills in particular. Additionally, the textbooks do not ask all sub-skills of the comprehension levels except those residing in the literal comprehension. The study also found out that the questions do not teach the comprehension levels in line with their difficulty sequence. Based on the findings, it is stipulated that material designers of grades eleven and twelve EFL textbooks should keep the order of reading comprehension categories and balance the distribution of sub-skills within the comprehension levels while preparing comprehension questions for grades eleven and twelve EFL textbooks.

Abstract

Writing is a vital ability for students to develop their communication skills. Nevertheless, some students believe that writing skills are challenging. Therefore, Google Jamboard can facilitate the learning of the writing process, as it provides opportunities for collaboratively enhancing learning experiences. The purpose of this study was to examine the efficacy of Google Jamboard in enhancing students’ ability to compose personal recount texts. There was no control or comparison in the pre-experimental design. A private vocational high school in Surabaya served as the location. There were 34 pupils in the tenth grade from a Surabaya private vocational high school involved. The instruments were a pre-test and post-test along with a writing rubric. The data were obtained by administering a writing test before and after the implementation of Google Jamboard. Using SPSS version 22, a paired sample T-test was utilized to analyze the data. The results demonstrate a significant gain in the mean score between the pre-test and post-test, with an increase of 19.97 points. Additionally, the two-tailed significance value (Sig) is below 0.05, specifically 0.000. This statement implies that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) has been approved. To sum up, Google Jamboard can enhance students’ personal recount writing skills. It is recommended that other researchers utilize Google Jamboard to teach additional English skills.

Abstract

The choice of instructional media is pivotal, requiring innovation and practicality. One such medium that has demonstrated considerable promise is the Audiobook, whose effectiveness has already been demonstrated in the context of ELT in Azerbaijan. Building upon this precedent, the present study seeks to adapt this medium for implementation in Indonesia, employing distinct instruments and datasets. The overarching aim of this research endeavor is to assess the viability of Audiobooks as an instructional medium for teaching question tags to ninth-grade students in Indonesia. To rigorously investigate this question, the research design adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing an experimental methodology. The study selects two classes from the ninth-grade population as the sample, encompassing a total of 56 students. Data analysis techniques encompass both descriptive and inferential methods, with the Mann-Whitney U-test applied.. The findings reveal a noteworthy outcome: the achievement of students in the experimental group, exposed to Audiobook-based instruction, surpasses that of the control group. Crucially, this difference is statistically significant, as evidenced by the z-value exceeding the critical z-table value (6.198 > 1.96). Consequently, it is possible to conclude that Audiobooks serve as an effective method for teaching question tags to ninth-grade students in Indonesian junior high schools. These results contribute to the growing body of evidence supporting the integration of innovative media, such as Audiobooks, into ELT practices. Moreover, they underscore the adaptability and potential transferability of such instructional approaches across diverse educational contexts, emphasizing the importance of pedagogical innovation in fostering effective language learning.

HOTS is essential to be owned by English education students, especially in writing discussion because it made them being critical in writing their discussion. Thus, tThis study aims to determine the level of HOTS in writing the discussion section of the thesis, the difficulties faced by students in criticizing research results in the discussion section of the thesis and the challenges faced by the thesis supervisor lecturers in guiding students to write critical discussions. This study was motivated by complaints from students who experienced difficulties in writing the discussion section of the thesis, so it was necessary to do research on this matter. One alternative solution that can be done is the implementation of students' HOTS in writing, so that students can better critique the results of research data analysis in the discussion section. This study applies case studies which are part of qualitative research. The samples of this study were 5 student thesis discussions from the University of Bengkulu English Language Education study program. This study uses writing rubrics and interview guides as research instruments. The data obtained was analyzed qualitatively by applying several stages such as data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The result showed that students implemented HOTS in writing their discussion, but only in the level of analyzing and evaluation. Students could not reach the level of creating. Another result showed that students faced problems in writing their discussion, either technical problems, language problems, or content problems. It is the same as what happened to the lecturer supervisors. They got challenged in guiding students in writing their discussions. Their challenges were students’ language ability in writing, time management, ideas, and sources.
