Abstract

Pre-service English teachers face various challenges that can significantly impact their competencies and roles, particularly in dealing with students and fellow teachers. The COVID-19 pandemic has added an extra layer of complexity by necessitating the transition from traditional face-to-face learning to online education. This shift is evident in the case of the microteaching course, which originally took place in a physical classroom but was abruptly moved to an online format. This study aims to examine the experiences of pre-service English teachers in virtual teaching practice and how they navigate the challenges associated with professional development during the microteaching course. A total of 31 pre-service English teachers participated in this research, engaging in virtual teaching practice. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, questionnaires, and reflective journals. The findings indicate that pre-service English teachers acknowledge the ineffectiveness of virtual microteaching, citing difficulties in managing and accessing teaching processes as well as the challenges of creating suitable teaching materials. As a result, future pedagogical practices should focus on enhancing the preparation and design of teaching and learning materials to better support the professional development of pre-service English teachers. This will ultimately contribute to their growth as educators during their teaching internships.

Abstract

Humans, as social beings, naturally interact to fulfill various life needs. This study aimed to analyze different deixis types in Kim Namjoon's speech and understand their meanings. The research employed Stephen C. Levinson's Theory and utilized a descriptive qualitative method with a content analysis approach. The findings revealed five deixis categories in Kim Namjoon's speech: personal, spatial, temporal, discourse, and social. These were distributed as follows: 129 (65.8%) personal deixis, 15 (7.7%) spatial deixis, 10 (5.1%) temporal deixis, 31 (15.8%) discourse deixis, and 11 (5.6%) social deixis. In total, 196 deixis instances were identified in Kim Namjoon's speech. His speech, titled "Speak Yourself," aimed to inspire young people to embrace self-love, discover their inner voices, and confidently express themselves to the world. The significance of this research lies in enhancing our understanding of deixis and its role as a linguistic resource, particularly in terms of usage and significance within utterances.

Abstract

This study focused on analyzing the common errors made by students in their English writing skills. The study employed a descriptive research design, involving 100 EFL university students as participants. The primary data collection method was a writing test, and the collected data were analyzed using error analysis techniques. The findings showed that the most common errors made by the students were related to grammar, vocabulary, and spelling. The most common grammatical errors were associated with subject-verb agreement, verb tense, and articles. In terms of vocabulary errors, the study identified prevalent mistakes such as the incorrect use of word forms, inappropriate collocations, and confusion between homophones. Additionally, the analysis of spelling errors revealed that phonetic spelling mistakes were the most common, followed by misspelling of homophones and confusion of vowels. These findings highlight areas where students commonly struggle with their English writing skills and emphasize the crucial need for targeted instructional strategies to effectively address these challenges and improve students' proficiency in English writing.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between students' translation ability and their reading comprehension among eleventh-grade mathematics and science students at SMAN 1 Wonomulyo. This dtudy used a quantitative approach, employing a correlational research design. The sample consisted of 36 students selected through a simple random sampling technique from a total population of 212 students. The study employed translation and reading tests as its primary instruments. The data analysis using SPSS indicated a two-tailed significance value of 0.069, which was greater than the standard 0.05 threshold. Additionally, the result obtained using the multiple correlation formula showed a value of 0.329 with 34 degrees of freedom. The correlation coefficient (r-value) was -0.306, which fell below the calculated threshold of 0.329. A t-test was conducted, yielding a t-value of 1.8741724, which was less than the critical t-table value (2.03224) with 34 degrees of freedom at a 0.05 level of significance. Based on the data analysis, the study concluded that the research hypothesis (Ha) suggesting a significant correlation between students' translation ability and reading comprehension was rejected, while the null hypothesis (H0) suggesting no significant correlation was accepted.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the Listen-Read-Discuss (LRD) strategy in improving students' reading comprehension at SMAN 2 Majene. A quasi-experimental design was used with a population of 277 tenth-grade students. The sample, consisting of 60 students, was selected using convenience sampling. The assessment instrument comprised 20 multiple-choice questions administered to both the experiment and control groups before and after the treatment. The results revealed that the students' average pre-test scores in the experimental group were categorized as poor, with a mean score of 44.33. However, their post-test scores significantly improved to a good level, with a mean of 73.83. Similarly, the control group showed poor pre-test scores with a mean of 44.67, but their post-test scores improved to a good level, averaging 71.83. In conclusion, the students demonstrated enhancement in reading comprehension. The significant value of the pre-test and post-test results for both groups was 0.000, which is less than 0.05. Therefore, the t-test value was smaller than 0.05, confirming that the Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, and the Null Hypothesis (H0) was rejected, indicating a significant effect of the LRD strategy on the reading comprehension of tenth-grade students at SMAN 2 Majene.
