Abstract

The covid-19 pandemic has a huge impact on human activities, including the education sector, especially the teaching and learning process. In the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, teaching and learning activities are still being carried out even though they are not carried out face-to-face but online. One alternative to support this online teaching and learning process is to use WA groups. The purpose of this study was to determine the activities and learning outcomes carried out through WA groups. This study also aims to determine the improvement and learning outcomes of students through group work. This research uses quantitative methods by collecting data through in-depth surveys. The survey used in this research is a google form conducted online. The results of this study show that students' activities and learning outcomes increase when the group work learning process is conducted through WA Group. WA Group is also beneficial for students, because it saves the use of internet quota. The disadvantage of using WA Group in the process of increasing student activity is that students are easily influenced by other chats that can distract students from the teaching and learning process. The conclusion of this study explains that increasing student learning activities and outcomes through WA Group is very effective because students can use various features that can be accessed through WA Group.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the efficacy of project-based learning (PBL) in the context of English language teaching (ELT). The study seeks to identify the benefits and challenges associated with implementing PBL in language classrooms and explores its impact on language learning outcomes. A systematic literature review of relevant academic literature was conducted, focusing on studies published between 2010 and 2023. Peer-reviewed articles, books, and conference proceedings were analyzed to synthesize current findings on applying PBL in ELT settings. The review reveals that PBL promotes meaningful language use, fosters learner autonomy, and enhances communicative competence among language learners. Students engaged in PBL demonstrate improved motivation, collaboration skills, and critical thinking abilities. However, challenges such as time constraints, assessment issues, and instructor readiness were noted as potential barriers to effective PBL implementation. Based on the findings, recommendations include comprehensive teacher training in PBL methodologies, the development of appropriate assessment strategies that align with PBL objectives, and integration of PBL activities that cater to diverse learner needs. Future research should explore PBL's long-term impact on language proficiency and investigate effective strategies for overcoming implementation challenges.
