Abstract

ABSTRACTAlthough reading aloud is an old teaching strategy, its relevance has been vouched by research from time to time. The present study aimed to critically review experts' opinions and results of previous research on the definition and characteristics of reading aloud and its benefits for young children in the EFL contexts by employing George’s (2008) model of literature review. The review revealed that the teacher plays the most crucial role in reading aloud, acting as the bridge between the text and the student's comprehension. A good design of reading aloud demands the teacher’s competence in choosing the text to meet the students’ interest and level; planning the tempo of the reading and the pauses to pose questions and comments; and making connections with the text and the children. Reading aloud benefits children’s English regarding their vocabulary, pronunciation, comprehension, listening skills, reading skills, speaking skills, communicative skills, and motivation, literacy, and critical thinking skills. These results imply that reading aloud is still relevant to be implemented nowadays because of the benefits it brings to children’s English. ABSTRAKMeski sering dianggap metode lama, membaca nyaring memberi banyak manfaat. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk melakukan kajian kritis terhadap pendapat ahli dan penelitian terdahulu mengenai pengertian, ciri khas, serta manfaat membaca nyaring, dengan mengikuti model penelitian kajian pustaka George (2008). Diungkapkan bahwa guru menjadi penentu kesuksesan kegiatan membaca nyaring sebagai jembatan yang menghubungkan siswa dengan teks yang dibaca. Kegiatan membaca nyaring bergantung pada kemampuan guru untuk memilih teks yang sesuai dengan minat dan kemampuan siswa, serta merancang proses pembacaan terkait tempo dan penempatan jeda untuk memberi komentar, bertanya, maupun membuat kaitan-kaitan antara teks dan siswa. Ahli dan penelitian terdahulu berpendapat bahwa kegiatan membaca nyaring berkontribusi secara positif terhadap siswa terkait pembentukan kosakata, pelafalan, pemahaman, keterampilan mendengar, membaca, berbicara, dan berkomunikasi, serta motivasi, literasi, dan kemampuan berpikir kritis berkomunikasi mereka. Jadi, membaca nyaring sangat relevan diimmplementasikan pada jaman sekarang karena kegiatan ini sangat positif untuk perkembangan Bahasa Inggris siswa.
大声朗读对儿童的好处:英语语境下的回顾
尽管朗读是一种古老的教学策略,但它的相关性已被不时的研究所证实。本研究旨在通过采用George(2008)的文献综述模型,批判性地回顾专家们对朗读的定义、特征及其在英语环境中对幼儿的益处的看法和先前的研究结果。评论显示,教师在朗读中起着最关键的作用,是连接课文和学生理解的桥梁。一个好的朗读设计要求教师有能力选择符合学生兴趣和水平的课文;计划阅读的节奏和提出问题和评论的停顿;与文本和孩子们建立联系。大声朗读有利于儿童的英语词汇、发音、理解、听力、阅读技能、口语技能、沟通技能以及动机、识字和批判性思维技能。这些结果表明,由于朗读给儿童英语带来的好处,朗读在今天仍然有意义。ABSTRAKAL通常被认为是一种古老的方法,大声阅读有很多好处。本文的目的是按照乔治的研究模式(2008),对专家的意见和以往关于清晰阅读的理解、特点和好处的研究进行批判性研究。有人说,老师是活动的成功因素,大声朗读是连接学生与阅读文本的桥梁。活动显然依赖于教师选择适合学生兴趣和能力的文本的能力,以及设计与阅读相关的节奏和休息场所的过程,以评论、提问或在文本和学生之间建立联系。先前的科学家和研究人员认为,识字能力对学生的化妆品、通奸、理解、听力、阅读、交谈和沟通技能,以及沟通的动机、识字能力和批判性思维有积极贡献。因此,清晰阅读在当今时代非常重要,因为这项活动对英语学生的发展非常积极。
