Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the impact of Indonesia's Independent Learning Curriculum (Merdeka Curriculum) on the English learning achievement of vocational school students in West Jakarta. A quantitative research approach, including standardized English proficiency tests and surveys, was employed to assess the differences in achievement. The results show that students under the Independent Learning Curriculum achieved significantly higher scores in English proficiency, particularly in speaking and writing, compared to those following the previous 2013 curriculum. The improved outcomes are attributed to the curriculum's flexibility, focus on 21st-century skills, and integration of technology. However, successful implementation depends on factors such as teacher quality, school facilities, and stakeholder involvement. This study contributes to the ongoing discourse on curriculum reform and its effects on student learning outcomes in vocational education in Indonesia.

Abstract

Writing inspirational stories could encourage students to take positive cues from the story. Regretfully, the initial research revealed that grade IX–D students lacked enthusiasm for writing inspirational stories. In order to ensure that at least 65% of the students could receive even the smallest score of 75, collaborative action research was carried out. Sixteen out of twenty-five students (68%) received a score of 75 and above on cycle 2 after the digital picture and picture were implemented, indicating that the action research was successful. The use of the internet to implement the digital picture was the reason for the action's success. More research on internet exploitation for the purpose of educational expansion should be completed in light of the common use of the internet in educational settings.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the use of English collocations in abstracts of research articles written by Indonesian advanced learners. Thirty abstracts of research articles published in National Journals were taken as the data sources. Every collocation suspected as verb-noun lexical collocation was identified. The errors were analyzed using four different English dictionaries and BNC. The result showed that 46 out of 130 were unacceptable collocations. The types of unacceptable collocations found in this study were the wrong choice of verb, wrong choice of noun, Usage 1, Usage 2, preposition-related errors, article missing, the use of a singular noun instead of the plural one, and syntactic structure wrong. Findings also showed that errors produced by learners were attributed to their learning strategy, namely ignorance of rule restrictions, false concept hypothesized, use of synonyms, and approximation. In addition, the result also showed that learners’ use of collocation was influenced by their L1. The ignorance of rule restrictions seems to be the most frequently occurring. It can be concluded that the main causes of unacceptable collocations were errors in verb choice and the influence of the student's first language.

Abstract

This study aims to depict the ecological crisis and the portrayal of environmental awareness in Indra Sinha's novel Animal's People (2007), set against the backdrop of a devastating chemical accident. The research examines how the novel's characters, who are victims of the disaster navigate their disrupted lives while grappling with the environmental chaos that occurs. Through the lens of Greg Garrard's (2004) ecocriticism and ecology theory, this qualitative analysis delves into three distinct forms of environmental awareness: pastoral, wilderness, and dwelling. These concepts are used to unravel how the novel critiques industrial society's impact on nature and advocates for a deeper, more harmonious relationship between humans and their environment. The findings reveal that the characters' struggles are not just for survival but also for reclaiming their connection with the natural world, which has been severely compromised by the disaster. This study highlights the novel's powerful commentary on the urgent need to address environmental degradation and the social injustices intertwined with ecological issues, emphasizing the importance of preserving the surroundings for future generations.

Abstract

The present study aims to explore students' perceptions of the difficulties they encounter in the "Structure and Written Expression" section of the TOEFL test at Pamulang University. This study is grounded in the context of the ongoing challenges in test preparation, particularly as students face obstacles related to grammar, sentence structure, and familiarity with the test format. The research utilizes a qualitative approach, specifically employing a case study method to gain a deep understanding of the students' perspectives. Three participants were selected based on specific criteria: Academic Performance, completion of a TOEFL course in the previous semester, and varying levels of TOEFL scores. The data collection process involved in-depth interviews with the participants, which were analyzed through thematic analysis to identify, analyze, and report patterns (themes) within their responses. This allowed for a rich, detailed interpretation of the challenges students face, focusing on their personal experiences with the "Structure and Written Expression" section. The findings from this research are expected to shed light on the common issues faced by students and suggest potential improvements in TOEFL test preparation methods. This study aims to provide valuable insights that could inform more effective instructional strategies, ultimately enhancing students' performance and confidence in the TOEFL test.
