Abstract

This study aimed to find out the effectiveness of using Exit Slips on learners' writing ability and reading comprehension improvement through deep investigation on its effect and the extent of its effect on both language skills by applying Quasi-Experimental research (pretest and post-test design) at an Islamic university’s language center (LC). Based on their similar characteristics, two EFL level II classrooms containing 60 learners were selected as sample. Furthermore, they were assigned to the experimental and the control group. In collecting the data, writing and reading tests, observations, and interviews were utilized to assess participants’ abilities prior to and after the treatment. In analyzing the data, the t-tests (paired and independent sample) were run in SPSS. In addition, Cohen D formula was applied to determine the effect size. The results demonstrated that students of the experimental group outperformed the control group after the treatment (p<0.05). In addition, the values of effect size obtained, writing (1.8) and reading (1.9), were categorized into strong effect size. Thus, Exit slip had significantly affected students’ writing ability and reading comprehension strongly to the extent that average students in the experimental group improved their ability of these two skills to match the student ranked first in the control group. It was due to exposure to summarization and paraphrasing, students’ motivation, and teacher’s creativity and feedback provided by the practice of Exit slip that affected students’ improvement. However, there was little evidence to conclude that which of the three mentioned factors in the practice of Exit slip dominantly affected the students’ improvement.

Abstract

This research aimed to find out the significant effect of using CLT through small group discussion on students’ writing and reading skills at SMAN 1 Kampar Timur. It was carried out by using a quasi-experimental design. The research sample was 72 tenth-graders who were selected from 201 students at the school. Furthermore, they were divided into two groups, namely the experimental and the control group. In the process of data collection, tests and observations were utilized. In analyzing the collected data, statistical analyses including t-tests for independent and paired samples and effect size formula were used. Finally, it was found out that the significance values were 0.000 and 0.000 for both skills respectably and they were smaller than the probability value, p (0.005). In addition to the effect size obtained (writing: 0.5 and reading: 0.5), it was inferred that CLT through small group discussion had significantly affected students’ skills in writing and reading comprehension to the extent that average students in the experimental group improve their both skills ability similar to big five students in the control group. Moreover, findings suggested that CLT through small group discussion might be applied in teaching and learning of writing and reading for various sample characteristic in different areas and contexts in Indonesia.

Abstract

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana integrasi Islam dan sains dilakukan di International Islamic University of Islamabad (IIUI) dan International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM). Topik pada kajian ini dikaji dengan menggunakan pendekatan Literature Review. Literatur yang digunakan sebagai data bersumber dari website universitas dan artikel jurnal ilmiah yang relevan. Berdasarkan pemaparan di atas dapat diketahui bahwa implementasi integrasi pada IIUI dan IIUM dapat dilihat dari landasan filosofis, visi, misi, hingga pada kurikulum umum Universitas yang disusun merujuk kepada landasan filosofis, visi, dan misi tersebut. Pada tataran landasan filosofis, visi, dan misi konsep integrasi telah disusun dengan sangat baik, akan tetapi implementasinya pada proses pembelajaran masih memiliki tantangan dari sudut tenaga pengajar, sehingga terdapat model yang bervariasi dalam realisasi integrasi pada proses pembelajaran.
