Keywords: content analysis, digital platforms language teaching techniques, morphological awareness, past tense verbsAbstract
This study examines the teacher's morphological awareness in teaching English, specifically
focusing on the past-tense verb forms. The analysis is based on a YouTube instructional video titled
"Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris Kelas 8 SMP: Simple Past Tense," the objective is to identify the
application of morphological theories in teaching method employed. The research questions based
on three primary aspects: The morphological awareness indicators evident in the teaching techniques
used by the teacher in the video; The extent to which the teacher uses morphemes to teach past tense;
The ways used by the teacher to demonstrate the application of theories and strategies of teaching
past tense verbs in the instructional video. The results indicate that the teacher demonstrates a strong
understanding of morphological awareness, clearly explaining verb changes, and applying
interactive educational techniques. The study highlights the significance of morphological
awareness in language instruction and proposes that digital platforms such as YouTube might
improve the teaching and learning process. The research provides useful insights into the
implementation of morphological awareness in classroom settings and offers recommendations for
additional research and practice. Despite its emphasis on a single YouTube video, this study not
only improves comprehension of morphological awareness in digital contexts, but it also offers
practical solutions for educators to improve grammar teaching effectiveness.
Keywords: content analysis, digital platforms language teaching techniques, morphological
awareness, past tense verbs.
