Abstract

In the process of teaching, teachers must employ various strategies to ensure that students grasp and understand the subjects they are learning. One effective strategy for teaching reading is the Student Team Achievement Division (STAD) approach. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of the STAD technique on improving the reading comprehension scores of students at SMK Kesehatan Assyifa School in Banda Aceh. The sample for this research comprised of twenty-six second-semester grade XI students. The research involved conducting pre-tests and post-tests. The pretest was administered before implementing the STAD strategy and the posttest was conducted after four sessions of STAD treatment. The reading tests encompassed five aspects that aid in enhancing students' reading comprehension; identifying topic sentences, main ideas, details, inferences, synonyms/antonyms, and conclusions. The findings of the study revealed that students improved their reading comprehension through the STAD technique by engaging in discussions with their peers about the issues presented in the reading texts. A comparison of the pretest and posttest results demonstrated that the average score in the posttest was higher than in the pretest. Specifically, the students achieved an average score of 80.19% in the posttest, meeting the criteria for completing the minimum competency standard (KKM) set at 73%. Moreover, the students collaborated in heterogeneous teams to maximize their improvement in each cycle, which fostered a competitive atmosphere in the classroom and heightened students’ motivation to comprehend the reading texts.

Abstract

Contrastive analysis as a synchronic method in language analysis used in this study to show similarities and differences between languages or dialects in order to solve practical problems related to languages, such as language teaching and translation. Every language has its own rules, which is unique as well as common features. A language shares some the same rules to some extent which benefit English learners to better understand the rules of the target language by knowing the similarities between the language and their target language. This research deals with the descriptions and analyses on Subject-Predicate systems of English and Acehnese languages which shows several similarities and differences. The similar structure found in both language is subject and verb in both languages need an agreement depending on the subject of the sentence.  While the differences can be seen in the position of enclitic of both languages. In Acehnese, the clitics position be found within a verb or a noun. While in English, it appears only within a verb. The example sentences of the two languages have been compared with sufficient examples, making it clear where and how they are identical and different.

Abstract

In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the importance of 21st century skills in preparing individuals for success in the modern workforce. These skills, which include critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and digital literacy, are seen essential for individuals to navigate the complex and rapid change of global landscape. For language teachers, in particular, these skills are crucial in helping students develop the language proficiency and cultural competence necessary to communicate effectively in today's interconnected world. However, despite the recognized importance of these skills, there is limited literature on how to assess them among pre-service language teachers. To address this gap, a study was conducted to evaluate the level of 21st century skills among pre-service English language teachers in Turkish universities. The study sought to determine if there was a significant difference in the mean scores on the five latent variables of 21st century skills between two groups of pre-service teachers: group 1 consisting of freshmen and sophomores (45 students), and group 2 comprising juniors and seniors (41 students). The study utilized a survey questionnaire as the data-gathering tool and conducted a multivariate analysis of variance to analyze the data. The results of the analysis revealed a Wilks' Lambda value of .978 and a significance value of 0.674, indicating that there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding their 21st century skills. Despite this lack of difference, the study highlights the importance of exposing pre-service language teachers to 21st century skills and monitoring their learning, literacy, and life skills. The study recommends that Turkish universities' pre-service language teacher education programs should incorporate these skills into their curriculum to ensure that their graduates are well-equipped to meet the demands of the modern workforce and contribute to a more globally connected and culturally competent society.
