Abstract

This study explores the experiences of EFL students at the State Islamic University of Raden Intan Lampung in using the ReadTheory.org website to enhance their reading comprehension. Employing a qualitative narrative inquiry design, the research aims to gain in-depth insights into how students interact with and benefit from the platform. Data were collected primarily through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory (1984), which includes four stages—concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation—served as the analytical framework. The findings indicate that ReadTheory.org supports students’ reading development by providing level-adjusted reading texts, which contribute significantly to improving their reading comprehension skills.

Abstract

The results of research conducted at SMA Negeri 1 Mengwi and SMA Negeri 1 Kuta Utara showed differences in student learning activities in geography learning between rural and urban areas in Badung Regency. This study aims to compare students' learning activities by using comparative quantitative research methods. Data collection techniques were conducted through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, then analyzed using descriptive techniques and hypothesis testing. Based on the analysis, it was found that the average student learning activity in urban areas was higher than that in rural areas. The larger standard deviation in urban areas indicates a wider variety of learning activities than in rural areas. The distribution of learning activity categories also shows that more students in urban areas fall into the “high” and “very high” categories compared to students in rural areas. Hypothesis testing results show significant differences between students' learning activities in the two regions. This finding is an important basis in formulating more effective and contextualized learning strategies according to the characteristics of each region.

Abstract

This research aims to develop a phonics-based learning method using a "Magic Board" to stimulate reading abilities in children aged 5–6 years at Kindergarten A Grace. The study adopts the Rowntree development model, which includes the stages of planning, development, and evaluation, and is tested using Tessmer’s formative evaluation approach. This includes self-evaluation, expert review, one-to-one evaluation, and small group evaluation. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The validation results from expert judgment indicated that the media aspect achieved a score of 90%, while the material aspect scored 97%, demonstrating high validity. In the one-to-one evaluation involving three children, the effectiveness reached 92%, while the small group evaluation with nine children yielded a practicality score of 93%, resulting in an average practicality of 92% (categorized as very practical). The development of the Magic Board media for children aged 5–6 years at Kindergarten A Grace is therefore proven to be highly valid and practical. These findings are supported by the strong alignment between the media content and the characteristics of young learners, as well as its relevance to the curriculum in use. The media development process involved several key stages, from initial prototype design and expert review to child-centered evaluations using Tessmer’s formative assessment. Each step yielded positive results, supporting the effectiveness of the Magic Board as a learning tool in early childhood education.

Abstract

This study analyzes the poem O Captain! My Captain! by Walt Whitman using pragmatic stylistic analysis based on speech acts, deixis, and implicature. It adopts a qualitative descriptive analytic model and seeks to answer the question of how Whitman’s linguistic choices affect the emotional and communicative dimensions of the poem. It’s found that expressive, directive, and commission speech acts create feelings of grief, admiration, and a promise of remembrance. Personal, temporal, and spatial deixes emphasize the relationship between the speaker, the deceased leader, and the historical context. The message of the poem, the irony of victory hidden in deep loss, is revealed through implicature. This study shows that Whitman’s choice of language in the elegy touches the hearts of the nation. The study reveals the importance of carrying out a pragmatic stylistic analysis of poetry to discover more meanings behind the text.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the correlation between reading comprehension and writing coherence among English language learners in junior high school. This study used a quantitative approach with a correlational design to determine the correlation between reading and writing. 17 eighth grade students from MTs Raudatul Jannah were selected through purposive sampling. Data were obtained using a standardized reading comprehension test and an analytic rubric that assessed coherence in students' written texts. Pearson correlation analysis showed a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.63, p 0.05) between students' reading comprehension scores and the coherence of their writing. This finding suggests that higher reading comprehension is associated with greater coherence in writing. This study highlights the pedagogical implication that integrated reading and writing instruction can improve students' overall language performance in an EFL environment.
