Abstract

This study investigated the correlation between listening comprehension and students’ listening preference at the first year of English Study Program of Halu Oleo University. It aimed of finding out the correlation of listening comprehension and listening preference in between and the correlation between listening preference and students’ gender. Samples were 44 students drawn using a random sampling technique. Instrument of the study were multiple choices tests of IELTS and TOEFL consisting of 20 items each of them, which was used to measure students’ listening comprehension, and a questionnaire featuring 14 items to gauge students’ listening preference towards British and American English. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistic and correlation analysis. Results showed that listening comprehension has a positive correlation toward listening preference and there is no correlation between students’ listening preference and their gender because both male and female have high score in TOEFL test and they prefer American to British English. Since the study did not investigating the most influence factor of listening comprehension, the researcher recommended that future researchers to investigate the factor.

Abstract

Understanding reading passage requires the activation of background knowledge, vocabulary competence and the understanding of the rules of the target language to construct the meaning of the text. This research is set out to discover the effective teaching to improve the reading comprehension by activating the students’ background knowledge, connecting it to the current text to read and producing the meaning. Appointing to the connection between the background knowledge to the text, this research investigates the comparison between the traditional group work of reading and use of KWL technique for teaching reading at grade 8 of SMPN 9 Kendari. The objective of this study is to investigate, there is or not a significant difference of reading comprehension between students who learn reading based on conventional teaching and those who learn based on KWL technique. This study applied matching pre-post comparison group design, which involves two cohorts namely control and experimental group. The hypothesis of this study is “there is a significant difference of reading comprehension between the students who learn reading based on traditional group work of reading and those who learn reading based on task based learning. Using independent t-test to evaluate the hypothesis of this study (sig. 2-tailed = 0.00 < 0.05), reveals that there is a significant difference of reading comprehension between students who learn reading based on traditional group work of reading and those learn based on task based learning. This study is also covers the students’ motivation in learning reading based on traditional group working and task based learning. It shows that students who learn reading English text by using KWL technique were positively motivated than those who do not. Therefore, this study suggests to use KWL technique in the teaching of reading especially at Grade 8th of SMPN 9 Kendari. It also suggested that further research to apply KWL technique to improve the students’ reading comprehension can be applied in the form paperless or digital form of KWL to make it more attractive and dynamically accessible without considering the geographical span.

First, there is significant gain scores different between students taught using Jumble computer software and those who do not (p-value = 0.000 ≤ 0.05). Second, students’ learning motivation after taught using Jumble Computer Software is placed in high category. It is maintained by the result of one sample t-test that students ‘learning motivation is placed in high category (p-value = 0.002 ≤ 0.05). Last, students ‘perceived learning after taught using Jumble Computer Software is placed in high category. It is maintained by the result of one sample t-test that students ‘learning motivation is placed in high category (p-value = 0.001 ≤ 0.05). The pedagogical implications are that this software can be used as a competitive game in the context of teaching English expressions as well as being able to find out students' ability in mastering English expressions using this software.

Abstract

Hybrid instruction is a learning model which combines face-to-face mode and online learning. The use of this method is highly compatible with the teaching of English in Indonesia. This study was set out to investigate the impact of hybrid instruction on students’ reading ability. Results of data analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the gain score of students in the experimental class and that of their cohort in the control class. In addition, in regard to the students’ motivation to learn using the hybrid instruction, it appeared that the students were highly motivated not only extrinsically but also intrinsically, which meant that both main elements of motivational types according to Self-determination Theory had been addressed

Abstract

Many students assumed reading is not difficult process. In fact, reading process is not merely their understanding of each word and the surface structure denoted in a text, but it also includes the process of comprehension. Unfortunately, they also do not realize that during this process, reading anxiety, reading self-efficacy and vocabulary have been stated as some contributing factors. Thus, the current study examined whether reading anxiety, reading self-efficacy and vocabulary contribute towards students’ reading comprehension and which one of these factors that serves as the better predictor of students’ reading comprehension among 82 students of second semester of English department of Halu Oleo University. Questionnaires are employed for measuring students’ reading anxiety and reading self-efficacy, vocabulary test for measuring students’ vocabulary. Whereas, reading comprehension test for measuring students’ reading comprehension. The result revealed reading anxiety contributes towards students’ reading comprehension, reading self-efficacy contributes towards students’ reading comprehension and vocabulary contributes towards students’ reading comprehension. Vocabulary is higher than reading anxiety and reading self-efficacy in predicting students’ reading comprehension when these factors are examined simultaneously. Importantly, this study leads to the conclusion that vocabulary is better and stronger predictor of students’ reading comprehension than students’ reading anxiety and students’ reading self-efficacy. Taking importance of vocabulary into consideration, therefore language teachers should put more emphasize on students’ vocabulary, particularly endeavor to make their vocabulary knowledge wider and deeper.
