Abstract

Students’ comprehension of narrative texts was hampered in the chosen educational setting, necessitating the implementation of effective interventions. The Rally Coach strategy, an emerging approach, is based on the notion that collaborative learning boosts student performance. This study aims to determine if there is a significant difference in reading comprehension achievement between students taught using the Rally Coach Strategy and those taught using traditional methods. A quasi-experimental research design was employed to assess the efficacy of Spencer Kagan's Rally Coach Strategy in improving students' reading comprehension skills. The study's t-test results showed a significant improvement in reading comprehension, with a value of 6.039 exceeding the t-table result of 2.048, indicating a substantial improvement in reading comprehension achievement. These findings support the alternative hypothesis, implying that implementing the Rally Coach Method in the experimental classroom would significantly improve the quality of reading comprehension instruction. Overall, this study adds valuable empirical evidence to support the Rally Coach strategy's effectiveness in improving students' reading comprehension skills. This study addresses a critical educational concern by identifying a successful intervention to address low reading comprehension achievement and emphasizes the importance of cooperative learning strategies, such as the Rally Coach Strategy, in improving students' overall reading comprehension abilities.

Abstract

As globalized EFL learners often elude themselves from participating in the designated reading learning activities prepared by their teachers due to the inevitable complexities, satiation, and frustration climates, the sustainable integration of a multimodal strategy is deemed as one of the essential digital learning approaches rewarding to be actualized by nowadays second language reading instructors. Previous researchers vehemently contended that with the support of a multimodal strategy, worldwide EFL learners no longer experience unpleasant reading learning climates since they interact with their digital texts enjoyably and meaningfully. This current small-scale library study is an actualization of the researcher's motivation to specifically reveal whether internalization of a multimodal strategy can reinforce globalized EFL learners' reading proficiency levels. To this end, the researcher employed a thematic analysis method in analyzing the specifically generated research results derived from 20 prior multimodal strategy scientific articles. To ascertain the credibility and relevancy of each analyzed research result, the researcher selected 20 already-published multimodal strategy articles ranging from 2018 until 2023. The thematically categorized research results highly advocated globalized second language reading instructors to arm language learners with the proper usage of a multimodal strategy to consistently promote more transformative reading learning enterprises in which EFL learners' targeted reading proficiency development can thrive to a greater level.

Abstract

Oral literature is a cultural expression that verbally transmits values from one generation to the next among the community supporters. This oral literature research aims at (1) presenting the stories' plots through the research's primary goal, 2) introducing the characters that appear in the story, (3) outlining the characters in the stories, (4) recognizing and explaining the settings of the stories, and 5) recognizing and defining symbols in the stories based on Yektingtyas's points of view (2016). The approach in this research incorporates literary criticism into secondary and primary qualitative data combined throughout the data collection process. The primary data were analyzed thoroughly, while the secondary data were utilized as references to analyze the primary data. The results show that Ilik was born to a mother under the shade without a father. Initially, the narrative focused solely on the character's day-to-day activities. The folks washing the pig gut rope cast away and flung the dog with the stone when he tried to devour the remaining portion. The pregnant woman and her children arrived in the village the following day to cook the raw pork they had managed to rescue. The portrait of this literary work depicts the characters’ lives and social harmony, allowing them to nurture indigenous values while learning to explore more life lessons from society.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the significant differences and effectiveness of podcasts on the listening skills of 9th grade students of SMP N 5 Jepara in the academic year 2022/2023. The researcher used a quasi-experimental design involving 30 students of 9H as the experimental class and 30 students of 9G as the control class. Data was collected using a listening test instrument consisting of pre-test and post-test. Then, the sampling technique used by the researcher was purposive sampling in which the sample was not taken at random. Furthermore, data analysis used SPSS statistical calculations. The results showed that the average post-test score for the experimental class was higher than the control class (86.9 > 78.9). This indicated that there was a significant difference in the post-test results. Then, the results of the hypothesis analysis showed that t observe was higher than table, namely (4,176 > 2,000). In addition, the 2 tailed sig was lower than alpha (0.00 < 0.05). This means that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. These results showed significant differences in the use of podcasts for students' listening skills. Besides that, podcast was also effectively used for listening learning.

Abstract

Register refers to a form of language variation specific to a particular community or group. Different language varieties within a community can convey distinct meanings. This paper aims to identify the forms of registers used by pro players from the Onic e-sports team in the online game Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and to explain their functions. The data found were 18 registers used by pro players to communicate in the team. The form of the register is classified into two: lingual units of word as many as 15 registers and lingual units of phrase consisting of 3 registers. From these registers there are three functions, namely; a) enhancing communication efficiency, b) boosting hype and atmosphere, and c) facilitating communication among players. Studying these registers is significant as it sheds light on the unique linguistic dynamics of gaming communities, contributing to a deeper understanding of language use in digital and collaborative environments.

Abstract

Amidst complex reading learning enterprises, it is fair to be acknowledged that globalized EFL learners need to improve their reading competencies and activate a self-regulation strategy to experience a positively sound reading learning atmosphere and become more strategic L2 readers knowing the reading strategies working best for their particular reading dynamics. This present small-scale qualitative investigation was conducted with the support of a library study approach to generate more reliable and apprehensible research results beneficial for the betterment of future reading learning dynamics. To achieve this main research objective, the researcher selectively selected 20 previous studies focusing on discovering the positive influences of self-regulation strategy in EFL reading enterprises. Thematic analysis was simultaneously employed while analyzing the previously obtained research results to yield more accurate themes that were rewarding and to pave more meaningful reading pathways for worldwide second language reading instructors and EFL learners. Based on the obtained research results, the internalization of the self-regulation strategy has successfully promoted more enjoyable reading learning processes where they can progressively transform into more autonomous L2 readers. As a point, these specifically attained research results strongly suggested globalized second language reading instructors cultivating EFL learners’ self-regulation growth at the onset of reading learning activities to gradually enable them to become high-achieving L2 readers.

Abstract

This research describes the teachers' and students' perception of using Interactive Whiteboards (IWB) and explain the opportunities and challenges of using IWB in English classrooms. This research uses library research. IWBs are large interactive displays used as input devices for computers. They can be used in educational institutions combining traditional presentation benefits with cutting-edge technology. IWB technology consists of a digital board, computer, and projector, which can be linked to a personal computer for easy use. It offers various tools including graphics, word processing, database, and multimedia tools. Using IWB as an educational tool increase new knowledge, provide innovations to students, improve the quality of students’ learning, facilitate interaction between teaching teams and students, improve teaching efficiency, and reduce paper usage. IWB has been found to significantly improve students' English skills, vocabulary proficiency, engagement, and attitude. However, implementing IWBs in schools presents challenges including large costs, insufficient technical support, technical issues, lack of adequate e-materials, limited time for lesson preparation, negative attitudes, lack of consensus among decision-makers, inadequate proficiency, and inadequate teacher training. Teachers need to master this technology so they can use it effectively in teaching. It is proposed that teachers receive training on utilizing IWBs more efficiently in various classroom settings. Teaching using proper operation of IWBs is a major factor in the teachers' ability to implement it successfully in the classroom. The trained teachers possessed a comprehension of the most efficient methods for utilizing the IWBs.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of combining digital flashcards with the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach to enhance interest and communication skills in English among elementary school children. Conducted at SD Negeri 058116 Kwala Sawit in Tangkahan, a rural tourist area in North Sumatra, the research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) model to test the impact of this innovative method in an under-resourced educational setting. The study involved 56 grades 5 and 6 students who completed two planning cycles: implementation, observation, and reflection. Results indicated a substantial increase in students' interest and engagement, with a 10.25% improvement in learning interest. Moreover, student proficiency in conversational English rose, as 72% of fifth graders and 78% of sixth graders demonstrated correct responses in practical dialogues after the intervention, a rise from the initial 40%. This study offers insights into the potential of digital, interactive tools to support language acquisition, especially in rural or resource-limited environments. These findings suggest that digital flashcards, combined with CLT, can provide a sustainable and engaging approach to language learning, fostering enthusiasm and communicative competence in young learners.

Abstract

Technology such as ChatGPT is central to effective instruction in English as a Second Language (ESL) pedagogy. However, language educators and students must have a shared understanding of its prospects to be used successfully in an academic setting. While extant studies have established its proliferation among students, this study investigated the sense-making of language educators as regards ChatGPT and its implications on assessment practices. A descriptive research design of the survey type was adopted for this study. The population of the study were forty-three university language educators and five hundred and five pre-service teachers who were purposively selected from two higher institutions in Ondo State, Nigeria. Self-structured questionnaire titled: Sense-making of ChatGPT among Language Educators Questionnaire (SCLEQ: r = 0.87) and Students’ Utilization of ChatGPT Questionnaire (SUCQ: r = 0.81). Three research questions were answered in this study. Findings revealed that students, to a very great extent, use ChatGPT to ace their essays (¯x=3.7) but then again, there is a gap-in-knowledge regarding its uses among university language educators (¯x=1.8). On the basis of these findings, the study recommended that language educators should get acquainted with AI tool and its applications in ESL pedagogy and also be creative on the best assessment mode given the reality on the ground.

Abstract

Reading is significant for learning; however, many Nigerian secondary students struggle. In developed nations, teachers engage their students via different online learning apps to complement classroom instruction and improve this skill. However, the same cannot be said for Nigeria, as no established online learning Apps exist. This study, therefore, investigated the effects of Google Classroom on secondary school students' reading comprehension in Ondo State, Nigeria. A quasi-experimental and descriptive research design was adopted for the study. The study population was eighty Senior Secondary School students who were purposefully selected from two secondary schools in Ondo State. The research instruments were the 2022 English Language WAEC questions and the Students' Attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ) r = 0.85. Two research questions were raised, and two research hypotheses were tested. The study's findings revealed that students taught reading comprehension using Google Classroom performed better (`X̅ = 29.98) than those taught using the conventional method (`X̅ =18.88). Similarly, the study's findings revealed that students held a positive attitude toward using Google Classroom for reading comprehension. On the basis of these findings, among others, the study recommended that English language teachers should explore the affordances of Google Classroom to teach reading. Furthermore, schools should allow the controlled use of phones, while the government should organize training for teachers on how to use Google Classroom effectively.
