Abstract

Writing is an essential skill for students to master in English. One of the texts that students need to learn is procedure text. Procedure text is a text that describes a sequence of actions needed to achieve a goal. However, students often face difficulties in learning to write procedure texts. One common problem is difficulty in explaining the steps. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using mind mapping techniques to improve students' ability in writing procedure texts. This study uses a quantitative approach with pre-experimental design, one group pretest-posttest design. The sample consists of 19 tenth grade students in MA Al-Falah Tolutu selected through random sampling. Data were collected through tests and questionnaires, then analyzed using paired sample t-test.The results showed an increase in the average value of students' procedure text writing skills before being given treatment (pretest) of 59.94 to 77.76 after being given treatment (posttest). Hypothesis testing obtained sig value. (p-value) of 0,000 <0.05 which means that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that the mind mapping technique effectively improves students' ability in writing procedure texts. The questionnaire results also showed very good student responses regarding the application of mind mapping techniques in writing procedure texts.

Abstract

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of research on online assessment platforms in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms, with a focus on Indonesian educational contexts from 2018 to 2022. The analysis highlights the growing recognition of digital tools in enhancing student assessment and learning outcomes. The findings reveal a significant increase in the number of publications on online assessment tools, reflecting the shift toward technology-driven education, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Quantitative research methods are predominantly used, emphasizing the objective evaluation of student performance through standardized tests, such as the Cornell Critical Thinking Test (CCTT). However, a noticeable gap exists in qualitative research, which could provide deeper insights into the contextual factors affecting the effectiveness of these tools. Additionally, the study identifies concerns regarding the transparency of data collection instruments, particularly their validity and reliability. The study concludes that while quantitative approaches dominate the field, there is a need for more balanced research methodologies and rigorous validation of assessment tools to ensure credible and comprehensive insights into the role of online assessments in EFL education.

Abstract

This study investigates the Genre-Based Approach to Teaching Writing, as reported in English language education journals in Indonesia from 2018 to 2022, based on SINTA rankings 1 to 4. The research predominantly employs qualitative and quantitative methods, with less frequent use of Classroom Action Research (CAR) and Research and Development (R&D) approaches. The review highlights a peak in research activity in 2020, likely due to adaptations required by the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings reveal that the genre-based approach has evolved from a niche method to a mainstream educational strategy, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving students' writing skills through structured genre-specific instruction. Data collection methods varied across studies, with questionnaires being the most commonly used instrument, supplemented by observation tests and interviews. The research indicates significant improvements in writing abilities, supported by diverse methodological approaches including empirical evidence and iterative improvements. The study provides a comprehensive overview of key research trends, influential publications, and emerging themes, offering valuable insights for educators, researchers, and policymakers. By mapping the development of genre-based approaches, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of its impact on writing education and informs future research directions.

Abstract

This bibliometric study investigates the development and trends within pragmatic studies in language research over the past five years. Pragmatics, which explores language use in context, including phenomena such as speech acts, implicature, deixis, and conversational strategies, has gained prominence as scholars recognize its importance for effective communication. Using a quantitative bibliometric approach, this study analyzes academic publications from databases like Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar to identify key research themes, influential works, and evolving methodologies in the field. The analysis reveals a significant peak in research activity in 2020, with seven articles published, likely driven by increased interest in communication during the COVID-19 pandemic. The variability in publication numbers across other years suggests that research trends in pragmatics are influenced by broader academic and global contexts. The predominant use of qualitative methods, including observation, attentive reading, and listening, highlights the nuanced nature of pragmatic research, which often involves detailed analysis of language use in media such as films, novels, and dramas. Findings also indicate a focus on speech acts, with twelve out of fifteen articles addressing this topic, while research on EFL learning and pragmatic failure is less represented. Data collection primarily involves observational methods, supported by analysis and interviews, reflecting the complexity of studying pragmatic phenomena. The data analysis techniques mostly include percentage-based methods, with fewer studies employing advanced statistical analyses like ANCOVA. This study underscores the evolving nature of pragmatic research and highlights the need for further exploration in areas such as educational settings and advanced methodological approaches. The insights gained provide valuable guidance for future research and practical applications of pragmatic theories, contributing to a deeper understanding of language use and communication.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the influence of the hybrid learning model on students' learning attitudes in English language learning and examine the students’ learning attitudes in English language learning using the hybrid learning model. The study utilize a mixed-methods approach with a concurrent embedded design, employing questionnaires, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The result of the study indicate that the hybrid learning model in English language learning influences students’ learning attitudes, with a coefficient of determination (R-squared) value of 0.299. This implies that the hybrid learning model accounts for 29.9% of the variance in students’ learning attitudes, while the remaining 70.1% is influenced by other unexplored variables. The implementation of the hybrid learning model at MTs.N 1 Kabupaten Gorontalo takes place during the transition period from full online learning to limited face-to-face learning, where students are scheduled to come to school. Students learning attitudes in the hybrid learning model exhibit both positive and negative aspects. Additionally, there is a special class in the school where many students display positive learning attitudes. However, it should be noted that students who are not part of the special class can still possess positive learning attitudes.

Abstract

The listening process in the classroom involves a series of steps that students go through as they receive, interpret, and respond to spoken language. This study aims at scrutinizing the strategies of EFL teachers in instructing listening skill in the classroom. The research data was first described in a quantitative descriptive manner using the frequency format on the results of the questionnaire which was distributed to 46 students at SMP N 3 Limboto, Gorontalo. In addition, further research data is the result of interviews with two English teachers at the school regarding listening learning strategies so far. The findings of this study revealed that the EFL teachers in SMP 3 Limboto used a variety of listening learning strategies that are quite similar to one another. They have a solid understanding of the goals that should be accomplished by students at the junior high school level while using listening resources. They draw from a variety of sources, including books and the extensive online content available now, when putting together listening materials. The model for learning through hearing should be engaging and have a variety of components, and the utilisation of various learning media should be enabled by modern technology. The method of evaluation should incorporate activities at various points throughout the learning process and make use of a rubric as an assessment tool to determine the level of listening ability possessed by the students. The results of the student questionnaire regarding the teacher's strategy also confirmed the correctness of the strategy conveyed by the two teachers during the interview. These results certainly illustrate that the English teacher at SMP N 3 is quite good at teaching listening to students by paying attention to variations in strategies when learning takes place in the classroom.
