Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using picture media in learning English speaking skills for eighth grade students of SMPN 1 Kendari. This study uses a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design involving 32 students of grades VIII-8 selected through purposive sampling techniques. Data were collected through oral tests assessed based on aspects of fluency, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and comprehension, then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests with the help of the SPSS program. The results of the study showed a significant increase in students' speaking skills after learning using picture media, with an average score increasing from 11.81 in the pre-test to 21.19 in the post-test. The results of the Wilcoxon test showed a significance value of 0.000 0.05, which means there was a significant difference between the results of the pre-test and post-test. The use of visual media also positively impacts students' motivation and confidence in speaking English, as well as creating a more active and enjoyable learning environment. Thus, visual media has proven effective as a relevant learning strategy for improving students' speaking skills at the junior high school level.

Abstract

This research investigates the use of speech acts by Levi Kane, the main character in the 2025 romantic action-thriller film The Gorge, through the framework of Searle’s Speech Act Theory. The study aims to classify and analyze Levi’s utterances based on their types, forms, and pragmatic levels to understand how language reflects his identity and emotional transformation. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, 170 utterances were analyzed from the film’s official transcript. The utterances were categorized into five speech act types (assertive, directive, commissive, expressive, and declarative), identified as either direct or indirect, and evaluated according to three pragmatic levels: locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary. The findings reveal that assertive speech acts are the most dominant, followed by directives, expressives, and commissives. No declaratives were found, which reflects Levi’s role as an executor rather than a formal authority. Direct speech acts significantly outnumber indirect ones, illustrating his concise and action-oriented communication style. At the pragmatic level, illocutionary acts dominate, suggesting that Levi’s speech is highly intentional and performative. These results indicate that Levi’s speech patterns mirror his shift from a reserved soldier to an emotionally engaged individual. The study highlights how pragmatic analysis can be used to trace psychological depth and character development in film, providing valuable insights for linguists, educators, and scholars of media discourse

Abstract

In this digital era, students often lack motivation in conventional English learning. Although ice-breaking is found to be helpful, conventional methods can feel monotonous for students who are familiar with digital technology, and the impact of digital ice-breaking has not been widely explored. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of digital ice-breaking (using platforms such as Bamboozle, Kahoot! and Quizizz) on the learning motivation of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Diwek. A pre-experimental design with one pre-test/post-test group was used on 31 eighth-grade students in class C. Motivation was measured using a questionnaire before (pre-test) and after (post-test) the digital ice-breaking treatment. The results showed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.009) between the pre-test motivation scores (mean = 30.29) and post-test scores (mean = 33.36). The Paired Samples T-test (t = -2.790) and moderate effect size (Cohen's d = -0.501) confirmed the positive impact of the treatment. Digital ice-breaking proved to be effective in increasing students' motivation in learning English.

Abstract

The quality of education in Vocational High Schools (SMK) is strongly influenced by teachers’ pedagogical competence, especially in the industry 4.0 era which requires continuous competence development through systematic human resource management. This study aims to analyze the management of pedagogical competence development of teachers at SMK Muhammadiyah Pondok Pesantren Imam Syuhodo, covering the stages of planning, implementation, and evaluation. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach and descriptive analytical method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving principals, management teams, and teachers. Data validity was tested through source and technique triangulation, and analysis used the Miles Huberman model. The results show that pedagogical competence development is managed through: (1) planning based on supervision, self-evaluation, and student feedback aligned with the school’s vision; (2) implementation via In House Training, workshops, MGMP, lesson study, mentoring, and industry internships supported by the principal’s role as supervisor and motivator; and (3) evaluation through classroom supervision, performance assessment, peer observation, and feedback from students, alumni, and industry. Success is supported by strong management, collaborative professional learning communities, and program relevance to business and industrial needs. The study concludes that systematic and continuous human resource management effectively enhances teachers’ pedagogical quality, integrates Islamic values in learning, and produces competent, Islamic-charactered graduates, serving as a model for other vocational schools.

Abstract

In the modern era of rapid scientific and technological progress, the development of student morals and character often lags behind, leading to behaviors inconsistent with religious principles such as disrespect, poor ethics, and a lack of empathy. This study posits that education is crucial in countering this trend by fostering religious character through the implementation of the Living Qur'an concept. Focusing on Budi Satrya Junior High School, this qualitative case study research investigates the process of building students' religious character. It describes the understanding of teachers and students regarding the Living Qur'an, identifies the religious principles being taught, and analyzes the teachers' role. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the Living Qur'an is perceived not merely as a literacy program but as an effort to internalize Qur'anic values in daily life. Instilled practices include reading short surahs, memorizing Juz 'Amma, reciting prayers and shalawat, performing Dhuha and congregational Zuhr prayers, memorizing Asmaul Husna, and participating in the Iqra' extracurricular. Teachers play a critical role as role models, guides, and motivators. The program's implementation has effectively created positive changes, evidenced by increased discipline, improved morals, and a stronger religious culture. Thus, the Living Qur'an is concluded to be an effective strategy for forming students into faithful, pious, and noble individuals.

Abstract

The EFL students' difficulties in academic writing, including limitations in grammar, vocabulary, and idea development, necessitate innovative AI-based writing tools solutions. The usage of artificial intelligence (AI)-based writing tools to assist students in producing academic essays is examined in this study. Five English education majors who had completed essay writing classes and had prior experience with AI tools participated in semi-structured interviews as part of a phenomenological qualitative technique to gather data. Students utilize a variety of tools, including ChatGPT, Grammarly, and QuillBot, for brainstorming, grammatical correction, and idea organization, according to the study's findings. In general, they considered AI to be effective in speeding up the writing process, improving language accuracy, and reducing anxiety. However, they emphasized the importance of wise use to avoid sacrificing critical thinking independence. These findings confirm these tools serve as a support, not a substitute, in the development of students' academic writing skills.

Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the efficacy of a trilingual speech activity at MTs Al-Jihad Kerasan in developing students' soft skills, framing the activity as an integrated pedagogical model. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were gathered through direct observation, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation. The data were then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, encompassing data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The analysis reveals that the trilingual speech activity serves as a multifaceted platform for holistic soft skill development. The structured process—comprising preparation, practice, evaluation, and intensive mentoring, and reinforced by a reward system—proves effective in cultivating a suite of competencies. These include communication skills, selfconfidence, presentation skills, creativity, critical thinking, adaptability, and emotional intelligence. Furthermore, the study identifies a unique symbiotic outcome: the simultaneous enhancement of linguistic proficiency in three languages and the strengthening of religious identity, multicultural awareness, and global perspectives. The trilingual speech model is a potent pedagogical strategy for soft skill integration in madrasah education. For future implementation, this study recommends the development of more innovative training methods and the provision of dedicated facilities, such as a speech practice room, to optimize outcomes. Subsequent research could quantitatively compare speech proficiency across the three languages to generalize the findings more broadly.
