Micro learning comes as one of the alternatives to deliver the knowledge to the students which became the focus of this study on seeing the significance of the strategy in improving students’ ability to write English text. This is an experimental research involving 64 participants which was done in Universitas Muhammadiyah Sumatera Barat (UM Sumbar). The population of this study consisted of 124 students distributed across 4 classes. The sample selection was done using cluster random sampling, which resulted in one class being assigned as the experimental group and another class as the control group The data was gained by determining whether students have improved their writing scores (through writing rubric) by implementing micro teaching through pre-test and post-test. The researchers look for the statistical t-value with a significance level of <0.05. Furthermore, the researchers conduct further analysis through descriptive analysis using SPSS 24. The results of this research were obtained through a t-test with a significance level of 5% (0.05), yielding an observed t-value of 2.975, while the critical t-value was 2.306. These findings indicate that students' achievement in writing texts improved. Therefore, it can be concluded that micro-learning is an effective instructional method for enhancing the writing skills of English Education students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Sumatera Barat.","PeriodicalId":31676,"journal":{"name":"Lectura Jurnal Pendidikan","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135971464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dual-coding theory believes when verbal and non-verbal stimuli are connected, it brings a deeper understanding and better imaging of certain things. The objectives of this study are to find out whether the use of nursery rhymes is significantly effective or not, and how effective the use of nursery rhymes is for vocabulary teaching processes based on the perspective of the dual-coding theory and the aspect of vocabulary knowledge to the elementary students. The participants of this study are 64 of the Year-3 students at MI Ushuluddin Singkawang in 2022/2023 of academic year divided into two groups, control and experimental group. The data were taken from the students’ pretest and posttest results and tools to measure the data were thirty numbers of short answer questions. The findings show nursery rhymes are significantly effective for the vocabulary teaching processes to the elementary students. Nursery rhymes not only run mechanically but also activate the students’ experiences, emotions, and thoughts through the process of repeating, reciting, then practicing related to the aspect of form, meaning, and use in vocabulary knowledge. All of these processes in the classroom bring a better recall for them specifically related to vocabulary learning.","PeriodicalId":31676,"journal":{"name":"Lectura Jurnal Pendidikan","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136019965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research was experimental research with a form of quasi-experimental design. The sample of this study was two classes, the control class and the experimental class, from Grade X SMA Negeri 1 Pangkalan Kerinci. The number of each class consisted of 32 students. In the experimental class, discovery learning is applied as a treatment, while the control class still uses a conventional learning model. The data analysis used descriptive statistics. The results of the study revealed that learning using the discovery learning model in students’ ability in writing poetry obtains the value of learning completeness at 86.7% which is higher than the conventional learning model. Based on the significant value of Sig (2-tailed) between discovery learning and the ability to write poetry is 0.000 < 0.0.

The data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five Indonesian mothers aged 34 to 39 years. An interview guide was used as an instrument of the study to assist the authors during the process of the interview including support and roles provided by the parents in enhancing their English learning and some challenges they found. The findings reveal that Indonesian parents particularly mothers have roles in helping the success of their children’s English learning including facilitating children in accessing English learning resources, introducing English through daily interaction, facilitating children with English courses, and accompanying children in learning English at home. However, they also experienced some barriers to doing their roles such as the lack of knowledge in English, lack of English exposure in the community, and the need for being up to date with technological advancement.

However, Storynory audiobooks’ effects on listening skills are poorly studied. Understanding its effect can help educators and policymakers create effective instructional approaches. So, the objective of this study was to assess the potential impact of ‘Storynory’ audiobooks on the listening abilities. This study was carried out at SMA Kartini Batam on the odd semester of 2022/2023 academic year, employing a quantitative with quasi-experimental design. This study used two tests in collecting the data, namely a pre-test and a post-test. The study’s control group was comprised of 27 students, whereas the experimental group was composed of 19 students. The process of analyzing the data entailed the use of the Shapiro-Wilk technique to examine normality, the Levene Statistics test to evaluate homogeneity, and the t-test formula for the purpose of hypothesis testing. Based on the hypothesis testing, it was found that the t-value was 5.006, which exceeded the critical t-value of 2.101 (5.006 > 2.101). Therefore, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted. The findings indicate a moderate and statistically significant impact of Storynory implementation on the auditory aptitude of tenth-grade students at SMA Kartini Batam. This study provides evidence-based for teachers to improve listening instruction using Storynory Audiobook. Since this study was only carried out on a limited population, it is recommended that further researchers expand the population to provide a broader understanding of its effectiveness and generalization.","PeriodicalId":31676,"journal":{"name":"Lectura Jurnal Pendidikan","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136020090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
