Abstract

This study was to investigate the effectiveness of e-learning based on self-directed learning on Sociolinguistics competence of EFL university students. A quasi-experimental study with non-randomized a pretest-posttest two-group design was employed in this study. The accessible population of this study was university students of English Education Department of Universitas Kanjuruhan Malang who were taking Sociolinguistics. Two classes of 76 students were taken to be the sample of the present study. The experimental group received e-learning based on self-directed learning on Sociolinguistics. While participants in the control group attending the same course received a textbook. The instrument used in this study was the sociolinguistics essay test. Kappa analysis was employed to meet the requirement of reliability of test since the instrument was not a standardized test. The data were analyzed quantitatively through an independent sample t-test. The finding showed that there was a significant difference between the students who were treated e-learning based on self-directed learning and those who were given a textbook on Sociolinguistics competence of EFL university students with P=.016<.05). It could be concluded that giving e-learning based on self-directed learning was effective to develop sociolinguistic competence of EFL university students.
