An Analysis of the Structural Equation Modeling Influencing the Active Three Ps-Based English Language Teaching
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of this study were 1) to find out the factors that influence the use of the Active 3Ps teaching method in teaching English and 2) to analyze the structural equation model of English subjects with the Active 3Ps teaching model using the Structural Equation Modeling technique. The study was conducted with a specific sample of 300 people, and the data were collected and recorded in SPSS. Then, the data were analysis using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the AMOS program to identify the relationship between factors influencing the use of the Active 3Ps-based English language teaching methodology, including measures of student engagement, English speaking skills, and learning satisfaction. The results showed that:
1) there were 2 latent variables and 12 observable variables, with an average of 4.05 and a standard deviation of 0.84, which was a high level, and 2) the results of the structural equation model analysis are consistent with the empirical data with statistical significance with a p-value of .07, the Goodness of Fit Index (GFI) was .992, the Comparative Fit Index (CFI) was .998, which was more than the specified threshold, indicating that the model was well consistent, and the Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) was .05, indicating that the model was very well consistent.
