Mapping Techniques

The purpose of this study is to find out significant difference in implementing Story Mapping and Mind Mapping techniques toward students’ reading comprehension enhancement. This study used a quantitative research method and comparative design by measuring the achievement of pre-test and post-test. This study addressed three research questions: (a) What is the achievement of the students after being treated with Story Mapping and Mind-mapping Techniques? (b) Is there any significant difference between Story Mapping and Mind-mapping techniques in enhancing students’ reading comprehension?, (c) What is students’ response towards Story Mapping and Mind-mapping techniques? There are different types of text in reading; however, the researcher limited the texts given to the participants—utilizing narrative and descriptive texts only. This study utilized small average amount of sample size—72 eight graders to be given the treatment. The purpose of limiting the number of participants is to provide effective treatment for them. The result of this study shows that p. value (sig) = 0.279 > α (0.05). After analyzing the data, the researcher found out that the students reading comprehension are enhanced but there is no significant difference in reading comprehension enhancement between those who acquired Story Mapping technique and those who acquired Mind Mapping technique. Both techniques are deemed to be effective in enhancing students’ reading comprehension.   Keywords Reading comprehension, Story Mapping, Mind Mapping

This study aims to investigate whether the use of six selected short stories throughout the duration of a 14-week course could enhance students’ reading comprehension achievement at the end of the semester. Out of the six short stories read, three were chosen as in-class assignments known as ‘Personal Reading Logs’ (hereafter, PRLs). One group of semester two Diploma students taking a reading skills course was selected through a convenience sampling method. A pre-test was conducted by having the students answer a past semester reading quiz of which the results would then be compared to their post-test (final reading exam) results. A paired samples t-test revealed no significant difference in the reading scores of the pre-test and the post-test, t (17) = -.265, p > .05. Since the p-value was bigger than 0.05, this indicated that the mean reading score of the post-test (M = 50.556) was not significantly higher than the mean reading score of the pre-test (M = 49.722). Therefore, the null hypothesis which stated that there was no difference in the mean score of the pre-test and post-test was retained. Overall, the result refuted the findings of other studies promoting the effectiveness of using short stories to enhance L2 reading comprehension achievement.

This study examines whether the use of Oral Drills and Role-Play method could improve students’ interactive speaking achievement. This study used quantitative research using pre-experimental method with one group pre and posttest design. The study was conducted in SMP Advent II, Setia Budi, Bandung. The participants of this study were 30 students from the first year students at SMP Advent II Setia budi, Bandung as the sample and they were grade VII at SMP Advent II Setia Budi, Bandung. This study used one experimental group as the sample. A pre-test and post-test were done. The experimental group was given treatment (Oral Drill and Role-Play Method). The data gathered was then statistically calculated and analysed. According to the interpretation, if p Value (Sig.) ≤ 􀟙 (0.05) then HA is accepted and H0 is rejected and If p Value (Sig.) ≥ 􀟙 (0.05) then H0 is accepted and HA is rejected. After calculating the data it was known that the p-value = 0.000 lesser than alpha 0.05. Result of the study showed that there is a significant difference in improving students’ interactive speaking achievement after using oral drills and role-play method.   Keywords: Interactive Speaking, Oral Drills, Role-Play Method

Abstract. This research is motivated by the low writing skills of poetry. This is characterized by students' poetry writing skills that are not productive, still informative, students are still difficult to express their ideas, and are less attractive to students because they only use one technique. One learning technique that can improve poetry writing skills is mind mapping techniques. Mind mapping is also a learning technique to stimulate students' imagination in generating ideas, recording and summarizing using mind mapping. This study aims to examine the effect of Mind Mapping Technique on Poetry Writing Skills of students in elementary school.This study was an experimental study of Quasi Experimental Design with Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The population in this study were all fifth grade students of class V. Sampling is done by saturated sample technique (total sampling), namely VB class as an experimental class and VA class as a control class. The experimental class consisted of 34 students and the control class consisted of 36 students. The instrument used to determine the effect of mind mapping techniques is observation and documentation. The experimental class was treated by using mind mapping techniques in poetry writing skills while the control class without using mind mapping techniques.Based on the results of the pretest obtained the average value of the experimental class 60 and the average value of the control class 64.2. From the results of the comparison of the two sample classes, there was a difference in value of 3.7, so it can be concluded that there is no significant difference between the two pretest grades, meaning that the two classes have the same initial ability. Next, learning was conducted using mind mapping techniques in the experimental class and learning without mind mapping techniques in the control class. After learning is given then in both classes posttest is conducted. For the experimental class obtained an average value of 82 and for the control class obtained an average value of 77.5. From the results of testing hypotheses with a significant level of 0.05 obtained a significant value of 0,000 because sig. <α, the hypothesis is accepted, so it can be concluded that there is an effect of using mind mapping techniques on students' poetry writing skills in elementary school. Keywords: Mind Mapping Techniques, Writing Skills, Poetry

This study aims (1) to find out the description of the dangers of smoking behavior of students before and after the application of mind mapping technique information services, (2) to determine the effect of mind mapping technique information services on increasing the understanding of the dangers of smoking behavior of students. The research method uses experiments with pre-experimental design and type of the one group pre-test and post-test. Data collection techniques used psychological scale with a scale of 38 items of the understanding of the dangers of smoking behavior. The population of students of class XI Multimedia 1 SMK 4 Semarang with a sample of 36 people who were determined purposively. Data analysis techniques used (1) descriptive statistical analysis to describe the understanding of the dangers of smoking behavior of students before and after treatment, (2) hypothesis testing with t-test analysis to determine the effect of applying mind mapping techniques before and after treatment. The results showed that information services with mind mapping techniques influence the increase in understanding of the dangers of smoking behavior of students. Understanding the dangers of student smoking behavior increases after being given information service treatment with mind mapping techniques. So mind mapping technique information services can be used as an alternative to increase understanding of the dangers of smoking behavior in students.
