DEVELOPING AN INNOVATIVE ENGLISH GRAMMAR LEARNING MODULE TO IMPROVE WRITING SKILLS IN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Writing skills are one of the essential components in mastering a language, apart from other linguistic skills. Writing demands a profound understanding of language structure, particularly grammar. The current junior high school (SMP) curriculum integrates grammar materials into various learning modules, often causing students to be unaware that they are learning grammatical concepts. This development research aims to design an effective grammar learning module, with the hope to (1) facilitate students' understanding of grammatical concepts, (2) enhance student's writing skills with an emphasis on grammatical aspects, (3) assess the suitability of the learning module with the writing learning needs at the junior high school level, and (4) obtain feedback from educators and students regarding the implementation of the module in schools in Bekasi City. This research adopts the Research and Development (R&D) model following the 4-D model stages: definition, design, development, and dissemination. Data collection was conducted through interviews and questionnaires. Experts in content, media, and language performed module validation. The research results indicate that the implementation of the grammar learning module can have a positive impact on improving students' writing skills, as reflected in the increased writing test scores.
