Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between reading anxiety, vocabulary mastery, and reading comprehension among eleventh-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Padangbolak Julu. Using a quantitative correlational design, data were collected through a reading comprehension test, a vocabulary mastery test, and a reading anxiety questionnaire. The results revealed a significant negative correlation between reading anxiety and reading comprehension, and a significant positive correlation between vocabulary mastery and reading comprehension. Moreover, a multiple regression analysis showed that reading anxiety and vocabulary mastery together significantly predicted reading comprehension, accounting for 26.8% of the variance. These findings suggest that both psychological and linguistic factors play essential roles in students’ reading performance. The study recommends that educators reduce students’ anxiety and enhance vocabulary instruction to improve reading outcomes.

Abstract

Critical thinking is the ability to analyze information objectively and logically, forming reasoned judgements. It is one of very necessary skills to traine to second semester students of Stikom Tunas Bangsa in the afternoon session class. Research-based learning (RBL) presents as an alternative learning model that can develop the critical thinking skills. This study aims at describing the effect of the implementation to the research-based learning (RBL) to develop fourth semester students’ critical thinking skills. Qualitative approach was used in the classroon research. The participants in this study consisted of 106 students. Data were collected using observation and test. The results of the research indicate that the implementation research-based learning (RBL) can develop critical thinking skills. It is proved by the fact that the students were able to show their interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference and explanation abilities. Meanwhile, aspect of self-regulation ability has not yet been able to be found. This research were used to make more sure previous research that implementation of the RBL can improve the quality learning process and make positive changes for the students in the intellectual and emotional.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is a fundamental skill in English language learning, yet many students continue to face challenges in understanding written texts. This study aims to improve students’ reading comprehension through the use of short stories as an instructional medium. The research was conducted at SMK Swasta Panca Dharma Padangsidimpuan using a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, which consisted of two cycles involving planning, action, observation, and reflection. The sample included 30 students from class X Akuntansi. Data were collected using pre-tests, post-tests, and classroom observations. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ reading comprehension. The average pre-test score was 43.67, increasing to 68.00 in post-test I, and reaching 80.00 in post-test II. The percentage of students achieving the Minimum Competency Criteria (KKM) increased from 20% to 83.33%. These findings indicate that the use of short stories can be an effective and engaging strategy to enhance reading comprehension in EFL classrooms.

Abstract

This integrative literature review examines the potential synergy between Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in improving university students’ reading comprehension within language education. Based on 276 selected articles, the analysis highlights three key themes: PBL's role in fostering critical reading, AI's function in personalizing language learning, and the importance of instructional design in linking both approaches. Findings show that while PBL and AI each contribute meaningfully, their integration in language education is rare and lacks systematic application. Major gaps include the absence of tested instructional models, limited evaluation tools, and a shortage of empirical studies in Southeast Asia. The study recommends developing theory-based integrative instructional models and conducting localized research to support effective implementation.
