From Peers to Progress: Implementing a Peer Tutor Based Cooperative Model for better Learning Results
Full text linkThis study aims to improve student learning outcomes through the implementation of peer tutoring-based cooperative learning. The research employs classroom action research with a total of 27 students involved in two cycles of learning. The cooperative model applied uses the STAD (Student Teams Achievement Division) type. Each cycle consists of three meetings and one final test at the end of the cycle. The results indicate that in the first cycle, the percentage of students achieving mastery in learning outcomes was 59.26%, which significantly increased to 100% in the second cycle. The research process involves stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection to ensure smoothness and effectiveness in implementing the teaching method. Overall, this study concludes that peer tutoring-based cooperative learning can be effectively applied to enhance student performance and suggests continuing similar research in different contexts regarding materials and educational levels to broaden the generalization of results
Unlocking potential: The role of differentiated instruction in shaping English learning outcomes among EFL students in Takalar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia
Full text linkThis study examined the effectiveness of differentiated instruction (DI) in improving English reading comprehension and attitudes among Grade XII students at SMA Negeri 3 Takalar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Notwithstanding the Indonesian government’s focus on English language instruction, numerous learners encountered considerable obstacles in attaining competency. The research adopted a mixed method with a quasi-experimental design comprising 216 students, categorized into DI and Non-DI groups, to evaluate the effects of differentiated instruction compared to conventional teaching methods. Analyses of preliminary test and post-test results indicated that the DI group, which utilized a differentiated instruction strategy, exhibited substantial enhancements in reading comprehension, attaining superior mean scores relative to the non-DI group. Qualitative evidence obtained from teacher observations and student surveys revealed favorable impressions of differentiated instruction, emphasizing heightened involvement and motivation among students. Nonetheless, problems, including time restrictions and budget limitations, were observed. The Findings highlight the need for a differentiated instruction strategy to address varied learning requirements, enhancing English language training in Indonesian educational settings. The findings emphasize the necessity of employing customized instruction methodologies to meet varied learning demands, hence improving English language education in Indonesian settings. Research implications suggest that teachers require specialized professional development in differentiated instruction to adeptly customize instructional techniques and resources, thereby enhancing student outcomes and promoting a more inclusive learning environment. The study underscores the necessity for educational policymakers and curriculum developers to integrate differentiated instruction into national teaching frameworks, especially in English language education. Educational institutions should prioritize the provision of training programs and practical workshops to equip teachers with the skills needed to implement DI effectively. Additionally, resource allocation should be improved to support the adaptation of instructional materials to suit students’ varying readiness levels, interests, and learning profiles. Future research is encouraged to explore the long-term impact of DI across different subjects and educational levels, as well as to investigate scalable models for its implementation within resource-constrained school systems in Indonesia
Strategic Questioning in EFL Classrooms: A Closer Look at Higher-Order, Factual, Probing, and Divergent Questions
Full text linkThis study aimed to investigate how English teachers' questioning techniques affected their students' cognitive growth and engagement. The study aimed to determine the kinds of questions that English teachers employ when instructing their students. Classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with two instructors and twenty students from SMP Negeri 49 Makassar were among the qualitative approaches used in the study. The results showed that both professors used various questioning techniques, such as factual, higher-order, divergent, and probing questions. Divergent questions promoted creative thinking by permitting numerous responses, whereas probing questions prompted students to consider more deeply and elaborate on their solutions. This study's importance stems from its ability to shed light on the function of questioning techniques in EFL classes. The study also offers practical implications for improving teaching practices and student learning outcomes. Future research could explore the impact of questioning strategies across different educational contexts and learning levels and their long-term effects on students’ academic performance. This study contributes to the growing body of research on questioning strategies in EFL classrooms, providing valuable insights into how questioning methods can improve student engagement and cognitive development. It also offers practical recommendations for educators to optimize questioning techniques to enhance teaching effectiveness
Boosting English Motivation and Writing Proficiency through Instagram Captions in Discovery-Based Learning
Full text linkThis study explores the impact of integrating Instagram captions within the Discovery-Based Learning framework on enhancing writing skills and student motivation. Grounded in the principles of student-centered learning, the research aims to address challenges in writing proficiency and motivation among tenth-grade students at SMKN 2 Rejang Lebong, Indonesia. A quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group was employed, where the experimental group engaged in Instagram-based writing activities, including caption creation and peer feedback. In contrast, the control group followed traditional teaching methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests to assess writing skills, complemented by a motivation questionnaire. The results revealed a significant improvement in the experimental group’s writing skills, particularly in vocabulary, sentence structure, and coherence. Moreover, the experimental group demonstrated a marked increase in motivation, indicating that Instagram captions effectively engage students. The findings highlight the potential of leveraging social media platforms like Instagram to enhance language learning, providing a more interactive and student-centered approach. This study underscores the importance of integrating technology into educational practices to foster greater student engagement and motivation. The results suggest that when used within the Discovery Learning model, Instagram can significantly improve writing proficiency and intrinsic motivation, offering a modern, engaging method for enhancing learning outcomes. Future research could investigate the long-term effects of such interventions and explore additional digital tools to support student development in writing skills further
