Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of using PowToon learning media on improving elementary school students' learning motivation and listening skills compared to conventional learning methods. The study used a quasi-experimental design with two classes: a control class and an experimental class. The population and sample in this study were all 81 upper grade students divided into a control class of 29 students and an experimental class of 52 students. Data collection techniques in this study included tests, observations, questionnaires, and documentation. The data analysis technique used the IBM Statistics application with the N-Gain Score formula. The analysis results showed that the experimental class using PowToon experienced a significant improvement in listening learning outcomes with an average N-Gain score of 0.79 (79.80%), which is considered high. In contrast, the control class only achieved an average N-Gain of 0.18 (18.67%), which is in the low category. Student learning motivation in the experimental class also showed significantly better results, with 96% of students in the excellent category, compared to the control class, where the majority (87%) were in the poor category. Furthermore, students' listening skills in the experimental class improved significantly, as evidenced by observations and questionnaires that recorded increased activity, focus, and understanding of the material. The data also showed that PowToon media was able to create a more interactive and enjoyable learning environment, encouraging students to be more active in asking questions, discussing, and expressing their opinions. Overall, the results of this study indicate that the use of PowToon learning media is effective in significantly increasing students' learning motivation and listening skills compared to conventional learning methods. Therefore, PowToon is recommended as an alternative innovative learning medium in elementary schools to create more meaningful and enjoyable learning.

Abstract

This study aims to describe teachers’ strategies in fostering children’s empathy through moral story-based learning in lower elementary grades. Empathy is a crucial aspect of children’s socio-emotional development that can be nurtured through literary literacy activities. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method involving grade 1–3 teachers in a public elementary school. Data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and analysis of instructional materials. The findings reveal three main strategies: (1) selecting moral stories relevant to children’s daily lives; (2) implementing interactive storytelling with value reflection; and (3) conducting follow-up activities such as empathetic discussions and role-playing. These strategies effectively enhance students’ social awareness, emotional understanding, and prosocial behavior in lower grades. The study recommends ongoing literary literacy training for teachers to integrate empathy values into Bahasa Indonesia learning sustainably.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of a cognitive approach in teaching pronunciation through tongue twisters among seventh-grade students at SMPTK Diaspora, Sorong. Indonesian EFL learners often face pronunciation problems caused by first language interference and limited exposure to authentic English sounds. Previous studies have shown that tongue twisters improve pronunciation accuracy, but few have explored how they support pronunciation from a cognitive perspective. This research aims to determine whether tongue twisters can enhance students’ pronunciation by engaging attention, memory, and self-monitoring processes. A pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest model was employed. The participants were 26 seventh-grade students selected from a total population of 37. Data were collected through pronunciation tests administered before and after treatment and analyzed using the Paired Sample T-test in SPSS 20. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ pronunciation scores, with the mean rising from 46.92 in the pretest to 65.88 in the posttest (p = 0.001 < 0.05). This indicates that tongue twister practice had a positive effect on pronunciation performance. The findings suggest that tongue twisters help learners internalize correct sound patterns by promoting focused attention, memory activation, and articulatory awareness. Applying a cognitive approach through tongue twisters effectively improves students’ pronunciation and creates an engaging learning experience. This study contributes to pronunciation pedagogy by linking cognitive theory with classroom practice and offers practical insights for teachers in similar EFL contexts.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of TikTok integration on students’ speaking achievement at SMAN 2 Sorong Regency, West Papua. Many senior high school students struggle with English speaking due to limited practice opportunities, low confidence, and lack of motivation. To address this issue, the researcher implemented TikTok as a digital learning platform to provide students with engaging opportunities to practice speaking English creatively and independently. This research employed a pre-experimental quantitative design using a one-group pre-test and post-test model. The population consisted of eleventh-grade students during the 2023/2024 academic year, with 30 students selected through purposive sampling. A speaking test was administered before and after six sessions of TikTok-based learning activities. Students’ performances were evaluated in terms of fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and confidence using a standardized speaking rubric. The results revealed a significant improvement in students’ speaking scores after the treatment. The mean score increased from 57.13 in the pre-test to 76.47 in the post-test, with a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating that TikTok integration had a positive effect on students’ speaking achievement. Students became more confident, fluent, and expressive in using English as they practiced through video recording, peer feedback, and self-reflection. The study concludes that TikTok can serve as an effective and motivating tool for enhancing students’ speaking ability. It offers teachers a creative approach to integrate technology into English instruction and provides students with enjoyable, authentic opportunities to communicate in English.

Abstract

This study aimed to compare students’ speaking performance and engagement between online and offline classes in English learning at the seventh grade of SMP Negeri 6 Kabupaten Sorong. The research was motivated by the shift in learning modes following the pandemic, which created differences in how students practiced and developed speaking skills. While online learning provided flexibility and digital exposure, offline classes allowed more direct interaction and immediate feedback from teachers. This research used a comparative quantitative design. The population consisted of all seventh-grade students, with two classes selected through purposive sampling: one representing online learning and the other offline instruction. Data were collected using a speaking performance test and a student questionnaire. The test assessed pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, grammar, and confidence, while the questionnaire measured motivation and learning preferences. The results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent sample t-test to determine whether there was a significant difference between the two groups. The findings showed that students in offline classes achieved higher speaking scores than those in online classes. The mean score of the offline group was 77.25, while the online group’s mean score was 70.80, with a p-value of 0.002 (< 0.05), indicating a significant difference. However, the questionnaire results revealed that students in both modes valued speaking practice, though offline learners benefited more from face-to-face interaction and corrective feedback. It can be concluded that offline learning remains more effective for improving speaking achievement among junior high school students, though online learning still provides meaningful exposure and flexibility when properly guided.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the skimming technique on students’ reading comprehension in TOEFL tests at the sixth semester of the English Education Study Program of UNIMUDA Sorong. Many students struggle to answer reading comprehension questions efficiently due to limited vocabulary, slow reading pace, and difficulty identifying main ideas. The skimming technique, which involves reading quickly to grasp the general meaning of a text, was implemented to help students improve their reading speed and comprehension accuracy. This research employed a pre-experimental quantitative design using a one-group pre-test and post-test model. The population consisted of all sixth-semester English education students, and a class of 25 students was selected through purposive sampling. The instrument used was a TOEFL reading comprehension test consisting of 50 multiple-choice items. The pre-test was conducted before applying the skimming technique, and the post-test was administered after four treatment sessions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test to determine the significance of improvement. The findings showed a notable increase in students’ reading comprehension scores after the treatment. The mean score improved from 52.84 on the pre-test to 72.36 on the post-test, with a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating that the skimming technique had a significant positive effect on students’ TOEFL reading performance. The skimming technique effectively enhanced students’ reading speed and comprehension ability. It can be used as an alternative strategy to help English education students improve their TOEFL test performance and reading proficiency in general.
