Abstract

This study investigates the use of ChatGPT to assist students in English writing classes, specifically in the Paragraph Writing course at UNM Parangtambung. The objectives of the research are to explore: (1) how ChatGPT supports students in English writing classes, and (2) the impact of using ChatGPT on students’ writing. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews involving one English lecturer and students from class E24 at UNM Parangtambung. The findings reveal that: (1) students use ChatGPT to help generate ideas, construct sentences, and improve efficiency in completing writing tasks; (2) most students acknowledged that ChatGPT facilitates the writing process by providing quick references, enriching vocabulary, and offering feedback; (3) however, students were also aware of ChatGPT’s limitations, such as the use of complex language, occasional inaccuracies, the need for lecturer validation, and ethical concerns regarding student dependence on ChatGPT, which may reduce critical thinking skills and interest in reading. The study concludes that while ChatGPT is considered helpful in addressing writing challenges and enhancing learning motivation, it cannot replace the essential role of lecturers in the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of YouTube videos as a learning media in improving students’ learning interest at SMP Negeri 1 Watampone. The method used is quantitative, utilizing a pre-experimental design. The research involved 27 students from class IX CIBI, with data collected through pre- and post-questionnaires administered before and after a four-meeting intervention using YouTube videos from February to March 2025. The study employed a quantitative approach, with data analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired samples t-test via SPSS v.25.0. Findings revealed a significant increase in students’ learning interest, with the mean score rising from 66.1852 (high category) in the pre-questionnaire to 80.1481 (high, approaching very high) in the post-questionnaire, and a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho) and acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). The results indicate that YouTube videos significantly improve students’ learning interest by fostering engagement, attention, participation, and feelings of pleasure. This study underscores YouTube as an effective educational tool to address the limitations of traditional teaching methods, offering practical implications for teachers to integrate multimedia into English instruction and suggestions for future research to explore additional educational outcomes.

Abstract

This study explores how students learning English as a foreign language (EFL) view the value of using video projects in their learning process. Using the framework of the Situated Expectancy-Value Theory (SEVT), the research focuses on how students feel about the usefulness, importance, and enjoyment of creating videos during their English course. A total of 149 students from the Intermediate English Grammar class at Universitas Negeri Makassar completed a questionnaire. The results showed that most students found video projects highly valuable. Many believed these tasks helped improve their English skills, creativity, and preparation for future careers. This suggests that video projects can support both learning and student motivation in EFL classes.

Abstract

This research aimed to ascertain if digital comics enhance students' reading comprehension of narrative texts. This study employed a quantitative methodology utilizing a quasi-experimental design. The data for this research were collected using pre-tests, post-tests, and in-depth interviews. The data analysis procedures employed were the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and the Mann-Whitney U test. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank analysis yielded an Asymp.Sig (2-tailed) of 0.663, exceeding α = 0.05, while the Mann-Whitney U analysis produced an Asymp.Sig (2-tailed) of 0.668, also surpassing α = 0.05. It can be established that digital comics do not enhance students' reading comprehension of narrative texts. In-depth interviews were performed to ascertain the causes of the notable decrease in the scores of numerous students. The findings from the in-depth interviews revealed that insufficient vocabulary comprehension, linguistic challenges, disparities in fundamental abilities between the experimental and control groups, difficulties in concentration, and the researcher's explanation of the material were contributing factors.
