THE OVERVIEW OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNING MANAGEMENT AT SMP NEGERI 3 NUMFOR BARAT PAPUA

Abstract

English language learning management is a process of planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating English language learning activities aimed at creating a conducive and effective learning environment. This management involves the management of resources, teaching techniques, interactions between teachers and students, and monitoring students' language proficiency development. Therefore, English language learning management, particularly in remote areas, must be carried out effectively and efficiently to help students master both spoken and written English. This study aims to describe the condition of English language learning management at SMP Negeri 3 Numfor Barat, Biak Numfor Regency, Papua, with a focus on planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating the learning activities. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research subjects include the headmaster, English teachers, and several students at SMP Negeri 3 Numfor Barat. The data were processed through stages of data collection, data presentation, data reduction, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that the learning management functions implemented at SMP Negeri 3 Numfor Barat had not been carried out effectively and efficiently. These results can serve as a foundation for future research to develop a more contextual English language learning management model for junior high schools that aligns with the conditions and needs of schools in Papua.
