Abstract

The purpose of the study is to determine whether the word mapping technique can improve students’ vocabulary. The research involved 20 students from class VIII at SMP N 2 Tompaso. This study is a quantitative research using pre-experimental design with pre-test and post-test design. Data were collected using multiple-choice test, each consisting of 15 items. The result reveals a significant improvement in student performance between the pre-test and the post-test. The average score increased from 47,7 in the pre-test to 81,5 in the post-test. This suggests that word mapping technique effectively improves students’ vocabulary at SMP Negeri 2 Tompaso. Furthermore, students reported that word mapping helped them improve their vocabulary and write descriptive text more effectively. This research recommends using the word mapping technique as an alternative teaching strategy, especially in teaching vocabulary for descriptive texts, to improve students’ vocabulary in school.

Abstract

This study explores the potential of English cartoon films as an educational tool to enhance vocabulary mastery among seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 6 Satap Kawangkoan. The research addresses common issues in language learning, such as difficulty in understanding reading texts, limited vocabulary, and lack of student engagement in learning English. Employing a quantitative research design with a pre-test and post-test structure, the study measures the impact of English cartoon films, particularly We Bare Bears: Burrito, on students’ vocabulary mastery. The results indicate that cartoon films are an effective medium for teaching English vocabulary, as evidenced by a significant increase in student scores between the pre-test (70.71) and post-test (91.71). Observations further demonstrate that the use of cartoons makes learning more enjoyable, interactive, and engaging for students, fostering greater enthusiasm and active participation in the classroom. These findings suggest that integrating cartoons as media can be a valuable strategy for improving English vocabulary skills among young learners.

Abstract

This research explores the psychological transformation of Louis Creed, the protagonist in Stephen King’s Pet Sematary, through the lens of the Dual Process Model of Coping with Bereavement developed by Stroebe and Schut (1999). The study aims to analyze how grief and loss shape Louis’s character, behavior, and moral decisions throughout the novel. By examining his response to the death of his son and his subsequent descent into denial and irrationality, this research reveals a failure to oscillate between the two critical coping mechanisms proposed in the model: loss-oriented and restoration-oriented coping. The analysis demonstrates that Louis becomes trapped in grief and unable to adapt to life after loss, ultimately leading to psychological collapse and catastrophic outcomes. Supporting evidence is drawn from key scenes and direct quotations from the novel. This study not only contributes to literary character analysis but also highlights the relevance of psychological frameworks in understanding human responses to trauma and bereavement
