Abstract

Writing proficiency in English remains a significant challenge in the academic setting. This study explored how vocabulary knowledge mediates the relationship between Google Translate usage and writing proficiency. Mediation analysis was used to select 150 samples using a simple random sampling technique. The results revealed that the variable of interest did not significantly mediate the correlation between the predictive and criterion variables. This result challenged the proposition of the Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) framework. Further studies should explore other variables that mediate the link between Google Translate usage and writing proficiency. Additionally, educational institutions may introduce students to diverse technological tools to enhance their access to quality education, particularly in writing development.

Abstract

This article investigates the implementation of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as a pedagogical strategy to cultivate critical thinking skills among junior high school students. Utilizing a qualitative research design, the study synthesizes insights from recent research and theoretical frameworks published within the last five years, employing classroom observations, interviews, document analysis, and focus groups to gather comprehensive data. The analysis highlights PBL's effectiveness in fostering critical thinking through student-centered, inquiry-based learning processes, emphasizing improvements in analytical reasoning, problem-solving abilities, and collaborative communication. Key findings reveal that while PBL significantly enhances these skills, successful implementation is contingent upon addressing challenges related to teacher preparedness, time constraints, uneven student participation, and resource limitations. Strategies such as targeted professional development for teachers, structured scaffolding for students, and leveraging technology are discussed as potential solutions. The article concludes with recommendations for educators and policymakers, advocating for systemic changes to support widespread adoption of PBL and promote a shift towards more engaging, student-centered learning environments. This research contributes to the ongoing dialogue on innovative teaching practices that equip students with the essential skills needed for success in the 21st century.

Abstract

This study aims to identify factors that influence student learning achievement using the Random Forest method and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The data used include variables such as gender, part-time work, days of absence, extracurricular activities, weekly hours of independent study, and grades from various subjects. The results of the analysis show that weekly hours of independent study are the most dominant factor influencing student academic achievement, followed by involvement in extracurricular activities. In addition, student attendance was also found to be an important factor, with a significant correlation between days of absence and part-time work and gender. These findings provide valuable insights for educators and policy makers to encourage independent learning practices, support student involvement in extracurricular activities, and reduce student absenteeism. Educational strategies that focus on these factors are expected to significantly improve student academic achievement.

Abstract

The development of digital technology today has a major impact on various aspects of human life. In bridging intercultural communication, translation has a significant role that cannot be separated from the help of technology. Technology also has brought changes in the way translation is done, including helping individual translators to increase efficiency. For example, with the help of machine translation, Google Translate continues to develop transformers and AI. On the other hand, ChatGPT, built on artificial intelligence, allows translation. Both adopt NLP. This study aims to determine the quality of the translation of both based on the TQA proposed by House. In addition, it assesses the level of similarity of the translation results and errors that occur based on the translation technique used. Translation samples were selected based on purposive sampling techniques, namely from a report chapter available on the internet in English. The samples were translated into Indonesian using Google Translate (GT) and ChatGPT (CG) and then analyzed using TQA. The results show that GT and CG have high similarities and insignificant error rates. This is possible because GT and CG continue to be developed over time to respond to and translate languages that are increasingly natural and resemble human language.

Abstract

English is essential in the hospitality and tourism industry as the primary communication tool between hotel staff and international guests. Effective English communication enhances service quality, guest satisfaction, and the hotel's reputation in the global market. However, many hotels in Indonesia face challenges in maintaining consistent English standards, particularly in mastering key service phrases. This study aims to identify essential phrases for hotel professionals, evaluate their effectiveness, and analyze factors influencing English proficiency in hospitality settings. A mixed-methods approach with qualitative and quantitative descriptive methods was used. Data were collected through field observations, interviews with hotel managers and staff, and guest satisfaction surveys. Findings reveal that international hotels in major cities like Jakarta and Bali exhibit higher English proficiency compared to developing hotels in cities such as Bandung, Yogyakarta, Medan, and Surabaya. Contributing factors to better English standards include regular training, the use of standardized service scripts, and a work environment that necessitates English communication. In contrast, developing hotels struggle with challenges such as limited formal training, inconsistent English use, and low staff awareness of key service phrases. To address these issues, this study recommends strategies including real-life scenario-based training programs, language learning technology integration, periodic mentoring and evaluation, and the implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for service communication. These strategies are expected to improve hotel service communication, enhance guest satisfaction, and strengthen Indonesia’s hotel industry competitiveness on an international scale. By prioritizing English language training, hotels can create a more professional service environment, ensuring a seamless experience for international guests and fostering a strong global reputation.

Abstract

The Think Talk Write (TTW) learning model is considered effective for teaching descriptive text writing, as it helps students express their ideas and opinions more clearly. This study aims to determine the effect of the TTW model on the ability to write descriptive texts among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 155 Sayur Matinggi. The research employs a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design, specifically a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population consisted of all 29 fifth-grade students at the school. Data were collected using written tests focused on descriptive paragraph writing, administered before and after the implementation of the TTW model. The pretest results showed an average score of 42.75, categorized as very poor, indicating that students initially struggled with writing descriptive texts. After the intervention using the TTW model, the posttest results showed a significant improvement, with an average score of 78.27, categorized as sufficient. Hypothesis testing was conducted using SPSS version 23, which yielded a t-count of 11.892, higher than the t-table value of 1.701 at a significance level of 0.05. Since the t-count exceeded the t-table value (11.892 > 1.701), the hypothesis was accepted, confirming a significant effect of the TTW model on students’ descriptive writing ability. These findings suggest that the Think Talk Write learning model effectively enhances descriptive text writing skills and can be a beneficial instructional strategy for elementary school students.
