Students still experience difficulties in finding the connection between a math topic, both with other math topics and with other disciplines and with everyday life in the process of learning mathematics in the classroom. This is because the element of connection in learning rarely appears. Accordance with this, it is necessary to use the right strategy to improve students' connection skills, one of which is the use of mind mapping. This type of research is a quantitative descriptive with a pretest-posttest design. The research population was one of the public high schools in the city of Padang with a sample of one class in class XI IPA. The data in this study were collected through pre-tests (limit function), question sheets containing mind maps, and final tests (derivatives). The collected data were analyzed descriptively and using inferential statistics in the form of a t-test. The results showed that the students' mathematical connection skills in class XI IPA were better than before. In addition, students' ability to make connections between math topics (K1), with other disciplines (K2) and with the real world/daily life of students (K3) has increased compared to before. Based on these results it was concluded that students' mathematical connection abilities increased after learning using mind mapping.

ABSTRACT Dea Restian Putri, “A Causal Comparative Study of Dictionary Consultation And Contextual Guessing Strategy At SMA N 2 Bukittinggi” A Thesis, State Islamic University of Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, 2025. This study aimed to examine whether there was a significant difference in reading comprehension achievement between eleventh-grade students who predominantly used Dictionary Consultation Strategy and those who predominantly used Contextual Guessing Strategy at SMAN 2 Bukittinggi. It also aimed to identify which strategy was more frequently used by students when encountering unfamiliar vocabulary during reading. The study was motivated by the unclear use of both strategies, making it difficult to determine which contributed more to students' reading comprehension achievement. This study employed a quantitative causal-comparative design. The participants were 72 eleventh-grade students enrolled in the Advanced English elective subject from classes XI F2 and XI F8 at SMAN 2 Bukittinggi. Data were collected using a 25-item multiple-choice reading comprehension test and a 30-item Likert-scale questionnaire. Based on the questionnaire results, students were classified into the Dictionary Consultation group (n = 33) and the Contextual Guessing group (n = 39). Since the reading comprehension scores were not normally distributed, the Mann–Whitney U test was used for data analysis. The findings revealed no statistically significant difference in reading comprehension achievement between the Dictionary Consultation and Contextual Guessing groups (U = 564.000, Z = −0.909, p = .363). The questionnaire results showed that Contextual Guessing Strategy was used more frequently. However, this higher frequency did not result in significantly better reading comprehension achievement. These findings suggest that both strategies contributed similarly to students' reading comprehension. Therefore, English teachers are encouraged to apply both strategies flexibly according to students' needs, reading purposes, and text difficulty.

This study investigates the effect of the List-Group-Label (LGL) Strategy
on vocabulary mastery among eighth-grade students at MTsN 6 Agam. It
addresses three research questions: whether the LGL Strategy significantly affects
students’ vocabulary mastery, whether there is a performance difference between
students taught using the LGL Strategy and those taught using conventional
methods, and whether students’ vocabulary mastery improves after the
implementation of the LGL Strategy.
A quantitative quasi-experimental design was employed, involving an
experimental class and a control class. The experimental class received
vocabulary instruction using the List-Group-Label (LGL) Strategy, while the
control class was taught using conventional teaching methods. Data were
collected through pre-tests and post-tests consisting of vocabulary test items. The
data were analyzed using paired-samples and independent-samples t-tests.
The results revealed a significant positive effect of the LGL Strategy on
students’ vocabulary mastery. The experimental group’s mean score increased
from 67.72 in the pre-test to 76.56 in the post-test, representing an improvement
of 8.84 points. The independent-samples t-test showed a statistically significant
difference in post-test vocabulary scores between the experimental and control
groups, with the experimental group obtaining a higher mean score of 76.56
compared to 72.74 in the control group. The experimental group outperformed the
control group by approximately 3.82 points. These findings indicate that the LGL
Strategy is effective in improving students’ vocabulary mastery compared with
conventional teaching methods.
The study concludes that the List-Group-Label (LGL) Strategy
significantly improves students’ vocabulary mastery. Through the processes of
listing, grouping, and labeling vocabulary, the strategy encourages students to
actively organize and connect words based on meaningful relationships.
Therefore, the LGL Strategy can be considered an effective alternative
instructional strategy for vocabulary development in EFL classrooms.

ABSTRACT Sonya Friska Olvi, 2321047 “The Effect of The Think Talk Write Strategy toward Writing Skill at MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota” A Thesis, English Education Study Program, State Islamic University of Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, 2026. The Think Talk Write (TTW) strategy is an instructional approach that guides students through three interconnected stages: thinking individually, exchanging ideas through discussion, and presenting those ideas in written form. This sequence allows learners to develop critical thinking, organize information logically, and produce better-quality writing. Based on this concept, the present study investigated the effect of the Think Talk Write strategy on the writing skill of the eighth-grade students at MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota. This study adopted a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental research design. The participants were selected from the eighth-grade students of MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota through cluster random sampling. Class VIII.5 was assigned as the experimental group, while class VIII.1 served as the control group. The experimental group received instruction through the Think Talk Write strategy, whereas the control group was taught using the conventional teaching method. Data were collected through writing tests administered before and after the treatment. Students’ writing performance was evaluated by applying Brown’s (2007) writing rubric, which measures organization, content, grammar, vocabulary, and mechanics. The collected data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Prior to hypothesis testing, the data met the assumptions of normality and homogeneity. The hypotheses were then tested by employing the Paired Samples t-test, the Independent Samples t-test, and the Independent Samples t-test on gain scores. The findings of the study revealed that the Think Talk Write (TTW) strategy had a significant effect on students' writing skill. The mean score increased from 55.13 on the pre-test to 66.87 on the post-test, with an increase of 11.74 points. The result of the Paired Samples t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (p 0.05), indicating that the Think Talk Write strategy had a significant effect on students' writing skill. Furthermore, the Independent Samples t-test produced a significance value of 0.008 (p 0.05), indicating a significant difference in writing skill between the students who were taught using the Think Talk Write strategy and those who were taught through the conventional teaching method. In addition, the experimental group obtained a higher mean gain score (15.00) than the control group (8.19). Therefore, it can be concluded that the Think Talk Write strategy had a more significant effect on the writing skill of the eighth-grade students at MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota than the conventional teaching method

Oktavia Elya Zahra, 2319147 “An Error Analysis of Recount Text Writing Produced by Eighth Grade Student of MTsN 11 Agam”. A thesis, English Education Department, State Islamic University of Sjech M Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi, 2026. Writing recount texts requires proficiency in past tense and grammatical accuracy. However, eighth-grade students at MTsN 11 Agam often struggle with grammatical structures, leading to frequent errors such as omissions and misselections. These issues hinder their ability to convey meaning effectively. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the types and frequencies of grammatical errors in students' recount texts and to explore the underlying causes of these errors. This research employed a content analysis design. The data were collected through document analysis of recount texts produced by 35 eighth-grade students at MTsN 11 Agam. The collected data were identified and classified using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy. To ensure the reliability of the findings, the analysis underwent an inter-rater verification process involving the researcher, an English teacher, and an expert lecturer, ensuring objectivity and theoretical soundness in the classification process. The research findings indicate that a total of 91 grammatical errors were identified. The most dominant error category was Wrong Verb Form with 56 cases (61.54%), followed by errors in articles with 14 cases (15.38%), pronoun usage errors with 13 cases (14.29%), and preposition errors with 8 cases (8.79%). The integration of the researcher’s micro-analytical approach with the validator’s pragmatic approach demonstrates that subjectivity in error identification can be synergized to produce a balanced assessment. These errors serve as systematic indicators of the students' interlanguage development, influenced by cognitive load and native language interference, where students tend to prioritize meaning over structural accuracy. These findings suggest that English teachers should shift away from isolated grammar exercises and adopt a more contextual, scaffolding-based approach to writing instruction to effectively improve students' grammatical accuracy.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the mnemonic strategy on vocabulary mastery among second-grade students at MTsN 1 Pasaman. The research was motivated by the significant challenges observed in students' limited vocabulary, the lack of effective teaching strategies employed by teachers (relying heavily on rote memorization), and the resulting low student interest in learning English vocabulary. These issues highlighted the need to explore more effective pedagogical approaches.
This research employs a quasi-experimental design with quantitative methods, the research compared the vocabulary mastery of two groups of eighth-grade students: an experimental group taught using the keyword mnemonic strategy and a control group taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests designed to measure vocabulary knowledge. Statistical analyses, including non-parametric tests (Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test and Mann-Whitney U Test) due to the non-normal distribution and heterogeneity of the data, were used to determine the significance of the results.
The findings revealed a significant positive effect of the mnemonic strategy on students' vocabulary mastery. The experimental group, which used the mnemonic strategy, demonstrated a substantially higher mean post-test score (87.74) compared to the control group (75.12), with a mean difference of approximately 12.62 points. The results confirmed that students taught with the mnemonic strategy showed significantly better vocabulary mastery than those taught using conventional methods, supporting the research hypotheses and aligning with previous studies on the effectiveness of mnemonic techniques.
