Assessing Student’s Ability to Construct English Noun Phrases in Writing Sentences at Senior High School Takalar

Published: 7/14/2023

Abstract

The primary goal of the study was to assess students' proficiency in three different types of noun phrase construction: simple noun phrases, rather complex noun phrases, and very complex noun phrases. Descriptive quantitative research was adopted by the writers. The writer collected the samples by using a total sampling technique that consisted of 40 students. As a result, the writers reviewed the data by using descriptive analysis to get the mean score and the precise responses for each student. Data analysis revealed that the student's capability to construct simple noun phrases was 9,55 (very good), rather complex noun phrases was 3,5 (very poor), and very complex noun phrases were 2,41 (very poor). Based on the result of the data analysis, the writers concluded that the student’s ability to construct simple noun phrases was very high, but the students' ability to construct rather complex noun phrases and very complex noun phrases was very low.
