Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of project-based learning (PjBL) in improving students' critical thinking skills. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with students and teachers, and analysis of learning documents. The results showed that PjBL significantly contributed to improving students' critical thinking skills, particularly in the aspects of information analysis, argument evaluation, and knowledge synthesis. Key findings revealed that the contextual and inquiry-oriented characteristics of PjBL were able to create learning experiences that encouraged students to actively engage in the process of inquiry, critical discussion, and authentic problem solving. Key factors for successful implementation included: (1) project design relevant to real life, (2) the role of teachers as effective facilitators, and (3) a collaborative learning environment. Identified obstacles were primarily related to students' readiness to manage independent projects and the need for appropriate scaffolding. Theoretically, these findings strengthen the constructivist basis of learning and emphasize the importance of a student-centered approach for the development of higher-order thinking skills. This study recommends the integration of PjBL into the curriculum by considering teacher training needs and adjusting implementation strategies according to the learning context. The research implications highlight the potential of PjBL as an innovative learning model to prepare students to face complex 21st century challenges.

Abstract

This research explores the use of irony in the film 500 Days of Summer (2009), directed by Mark Webb. Unlike typical romance films, this movie presents a non-linear narrative and avoids the usual happy ending, making it a rich subject for irony analysis. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the study identifies and explains different types of irony found in the film, including dramatic, situational, verbal, etc. These ironic moments are key to understanding the development of the main character, Tom Hansen, whose expectations about love often clash with reality. Scenes such as “Expectations vs. Reality” and the unexpected meeting with Autumn illustrate how irony shapes the story and reflects Tom’s emotional journey. The findings show that irony is a powerful narrative device that adds depth to the film, challenges traditional ideas about romance, and helps the audience connect more deeply with the character’s experience. This study highlights how irony can be used in film to reveal personal growth and present a more realistic view of love.

Abstract

Grammar proficiency is vital for effective writing in English, particularly concerning the simple present tense in descriptive texts. While numerous studies have documented common grammatical errors, a gap exists in understanding the specific errors made by students at SMKN 5 Palu. This research aimed to identify and classify the types of errors made by tenth-grade students in their use of the simple present tense in descriptive texts and to determine the most prevalent error types. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach and Dulay's Surface Strategy Taxonomy, data were collected from 15 students through their written texts. The findings indicated that omission errors were the most frequent, accounting for 57.97% of total errors, followed by missordering errors at 8.70%. These results highlight significant challenges with subject-verb agreement and the correct application of auxiliary verbs. The study concludes that enhancing grammar instruction and incorporating error analysis can substantially improve students' writing proficiency. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions in grammar education to address specific error patterns and enhance overall writing skills.

Abstract

Vocabulary development has a critical position in English language learning; however, numerous instructing practices need the connection between culture and ethical integration. Whereas folklore, particularly the story of Roro Jonggrang, offers ethical insights and cultural richness, its potential in vocabulary learning remains underexplored. This consideration points to examining how ethical values from the Indonesian stories of Roro Jonggrang can be coordinated into writing activities to upgrade students' English vocabulary acquisition. Applying qualitative descriptive methods, this study analysed the folklore content utilising content analysis to discover the ethical values and related vocabularies. The findings uncovered eight dominant ethical subjects, like honesty, hard work, humility, responsibility, respect, courage, justice, and wisdom. These topics give important vocabulary when consolidated into reflective writing tasks. The study concludes that writing activities based on the folklore of Roro Jonggrang upgrade vocabulary development and fortify character education, supporting a more relevant and values-driven approach to English learning.

Abstract

This research is qualitative research, namely research whose data sources are obtained from observations, interviews, and documentation obtained at the research location and on the objects and samples studied by the author to obtain valid and relevant information on the variables studied, namely in the form of movements, words, and images collected at the research location. Based on the research results, researchers found that: 1) The implementation of religious studies at the Waara Village Qur'anic Education Center (QEC) is routinely carried out every day after the Maghrib prayer, and sometimes continued after the Isha prayer if there are still children who have not had time to recite the Qur'an. The teaching carried out by the teachers starts from the introduction of the Hijayah letters, both pronunciation and makhraj, to children who are still at the Iqro level, as well as learning the laws of tajwid to children who have entered the Qur'an level. 2) The understanding of Islam, in this case understanding and implementing the pillars of Islam in the children of the Waara Village QEC, is quite good. This can be seen from the diligence of the children in performing prayers and fasting during Ramadan, and understanding the sentence of the shahada. This can be consistent because of the affirmation and supervision carried out by the Waara Village QEC teachers, who do not allow their students to learn to recite the Qur'an before performing prayers, and advise them every day before and after carrying out the Qur'an.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of verbal interaction in developing speaking competence classroom by analyzing verbal interactions between a lecturer and fourth-semester students at the University of Asahan. Using the Initiation–Response–Feedback (IRF) framework by Sinclair and Coulthard (1975), data were collected through classroom observation and analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal a predominantly teacher-centered discourse, where lecturers control most exchanges, with limited space for student participation. Although some extended IRF sequences indicated potential for dialogic engagement, overall interaction lacked spontaneity and learner agency. The study recommends adopting more student-centered discourse strategies to foster meaningful participation and promote communicative competence in EFL classrooms
