In this study, a pre-experimental design was used. Thirty-two students studying social science made up the sample. Data from the pre- and post-tests were gathered, and a t-test was used for analysis. Twenty-five multiple-choice questions with four possible answers (a, b, c, and d) comprised the test. The post-test result was 2488, but the pre-test result was 2080. The data shows that the t-test result was 18.21. For thirty-one samples, the t table with 5% degree of freedom (df) is 2.039. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted based on the data analysis shown above, and the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected because the t-test result is greater than the value indicated in the t-table (18.21&gt;2.039). Furthermore, the effect size is 3.09, falling into the high effect (&gt;0.8) category. In summary, there was a significant impact on students' vocabulary achievement when the Undercover Game programme was implemented. For this reason, Undercover Game comes highly recommended as a useful instrument for improving vocabulary in students.</p> Lukas Wiliam Cooper Lukas, Eusabinus Bunau, Surmiyati Copyright (c) 2024 Lukas Wiliam Cooper Lukas, Eusabinus Bunau, Surmiyati http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14763 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 INVESTIGATING STUDENT'S LEVEL OF SELF-EFFICACY IN SPEAKING PERFORMANCE OF THAI EFL LEARNERS https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14966 <p>The psychological notion of self-efficacy plays a key role in evaluating students' linguistic aptitude and fluency in English. The purpose of this study is to ascertain Thai students learning English as a foreign language (EFL)'s degree of self-efficacy in oral communication. In order to assess students' confidence in their ability to speak English fluently, the study looks into their sense of self-efficacy. Both quantitative and qualitative methods are used in this investigation. A questionnaire was distributed to 28 students who attended an Islamic high school in Satun, Southern Thailand, using a quantitative methodology. Several kids from the school are interviewed as part of the qualitative technique. Participants are asked particular questions that allow them to give in-depth answers based on their experiences and circumstances. Using the three elements of self-efficacy—magnitude, generality, and strength—the research findings show that students in Thailand consistently have low levels of self-efficacy. As a result, the study's findings imply that Thai students still require assistance in oral English communication. There are numerous uses for this subject in psychology, education, and language instruction. Instructors could come up with strategies to help Thai students feel more confident about learning English as a second language and improve their oral communication abilities. Techniques that enhance English communication skills can be incorporated into language programs and curriculum designs. The results can be used by psychologists to address issues with self-efficacy in language learning. This study takes a fresh approach by examining Thai English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' self-efficacy, particularly with regard to speaking abilities. It advances existing knowledge by highlighting the specific challenges these students face when speaking. This research provides novel insights that can guide interventions aimed at enhancing students' self-efficacy in oral English communication.</p> Fany Selvia Nasution, Khairun Nissa Copyright (c) 2024 Fany Selvia Nasution, Khairun Nissa http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14966 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 THE ROLE OF LANGUAGE IN SHAPING TEACHERS’ IDENTITY ON TIKTOK https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14987 <p>TikTok application is one of the most used applications recently. From 14 years old until 30 years old people spend more than 30 minutes a day opening this application. Enormous, interesting videos with varied topics make many people like TikTok. Besides that, they can create their video easily with the features which are already provided. This phenomenon affects education as well. Teachers try to utilize this application as their learning media. Not only that, but teachers also create their accounts and upload videos that are related to the learning process or education. Therefore, the researcher is interested to know how the language used by teachers in TikTok shapes their identity. The researcher analyzed two subjects, two of them teachers in different countries. This research used a qualitative method that describes the language used in three videos in teachers’ TikTok accounts and analyses it. The findings revealed that both teachers wanted to be seen as capable and friendly teachers because they know how to build an interesting learning process and build good relationships with their students.</p> Kadek Dwi Candra Oktariana Copyright (c) 2024 Kadek Dwi Candra Oktariana http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14987 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 THE INFLUENCE OF THE PROBLEM BASED LEARNING MODEL ON STUDENTS' LEARNING OUTCOMES https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14165 <p>The aim of this research is to find out whether there is an influence of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model on the learning outcomes of science students regarding plant morphology in class IV at Miftahul Jannah Banyuasin. The method used is quasi experimental design, a form of design that uses non-equivalent control group design. The population of this study was all fourth grade students. Meanwhile, the samples in this research were students in classes IV.A and IV.B with a total of 60 students. The data collection technique is carried out using tests. The data analysis technique used is the t test (independent t test). The results of the research show that the results of the hypothesis using the t-test on both groups with the results obtained, the tcount = 3.60 while the ttable value = 2045, thus tcount &gt; ttable (3.60 &gt; 2045) which means the working hypothesis (Ha) in This research was accepted, namely the results of science learning material on plant morphology for class IV students. This proves that there is an influence of the problem based learning model on the science learning outcomes of plant morphology material for class IV MI (Miftahul Jannah) Banyuasin students.</p> Anita Rahayu, Bambang Hermansyah, Marleni Copyright (c) 2024 Anita Rahayu, Bambang Hermansyah, Marleni http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14165 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 THE INFLUENCE OF AUDIO VISUAL MEDIA ON STUDENTS’ LEARNING INTEREST TO IMPROVE THEIR LEARNING OUTCOMES https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14166 <p>This research is motivated by students' low interest in learning because in the teaching and learning process teachers tend to use tools in the form of simple media, making it less interesting for students to pay attention to. This research aims to determine the effect of audio-visual media on class IV students' interest in learning in SBdP subjects. This research was carried out at SD Negeri 166 Palembang which is located on Jl. Rimba Kemuning Lr. Buyut, Kemuning District, Palembang City, South Sumatra. This research is a type of experimental research, namely the Quasi Experimental Design type. The population and sample in this study were fourth grade students at SD Negeri 166 Palembang, totaling 29 students in the control class and 26 students in the experimental class.

The results of this research are hypothesis testing showing that t count ≥ t table or 4.706 ≥ 1.674 so it can be concluded that H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted. This means that there is an influence of audio visual media on class IV students' interest in learning in SBdP subjects.</p> Dwi Agustin, Marleni, Henni Riyanti Copyright (c) 2024 Dwi Agustin, Marleni, Henni Riyanti http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14166 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH LEARNING MODULE BY CUNNINGSWORTH’S THEORY https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14832 <p>The control over the materials used in the classroom rests with the schools. Because of this, some educational establishments decide to develop their own curricula. When developing the module, schools must follow educational guidelines in addition to ensuring that the learning resources align with the curriculum. This study aims to evaluate and investigate the English curriculum used in one of the middle schools. This study will use a qualitative descriptive research method in conjunction with a qualitative research design. When evaluating an English module for third-grade junior high school students, the Cunningsworth evaluation checklist will offer a comprehensive framework for a general examination and analysis of the module. The research yielded several findings. The linguistic substance of the language style is appropriate for the pupils' grade level. This skill set does not include any writing or listening tasks. The topic analysis indicates that the programme is engaging and exciting, and that there is a significant overlap between the subject matter and the students' daily life. In theory as well as in practice, this research would be helpful. In theory, this study should enhance education, especially in the field of assessing instructional materials for the English language. Additionally, it might support or add to previous findings. It is hoped that this research's practical application will help educators evaluate instructional resources, and English language instructors will find value in the findings. This study examines and assesses English content produced by the school, filling the evaluation gap left by earlier studies that evaluated widely used or education government textbooks. It is expected to assist schools in evaluating their land as a source of instructional materials to facilitate effective instruction.</p> Viera Safira, Yanti Wirza, Lenny Kristanti, Hana Shadrina, Surya Aulia Sukarman Copyright (c) 2024 Viera Safira, Yanti Wirza, Lenny Kristanti, Hana Shadrina, Surya Aulia Sukarman http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14832 Sun, 09 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000 THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN ENGLISH CLASSESS AT SMA NEGERI 1 GIANYAR: STUDENTS’ AND TEACHER’ PERCEPTION https://jurnal.univpgri-palembang.ac.id/index.php/esteem/article/view/14884 <p>The purpose of the study was to find out how instructors and students felt about using technology in English classes.
