This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Discovery Learning model in analyzing the structure and language of biographical texts for grade X students of SMK Al-Falah Tanjungjaya in the 2025/2026 academic year. The research method used was a quasi- experimental method. Data collection techniques used were interviews and tests. The sample of this study was 10th-grade students at TJKT 1 as the experimental class and 10th-grade students at TJKT 2 as the control class. Based on the results, the average score obtained by students in the experimental class was 90.24 and the average score obtained by the control class was 80.63. This indicates that the Discovery Learning model significantly influenced the learning outcomes of 10th-grade students at SMK Al-Falah Tanjungjaya in the 2025/2026 academic year in analyzing the structure and language of biographical texts.

This study examines Libyan computer science students’ perspectives on their English for Specific Purposes (ESP) textbook and explores the challenges associated with their use of this textbook in the tertiary education context. A questionnaire adapted from established ESP evaluation frameworks was administered to a sample of 53 undergraduate computer science students. The findings reveal a significant discrepancy between the textbook’s organizational structure and its pedagogical effectiveness. While students acknowledge the clarity of the textbook’s layout and sequencing, they report substantial shortcomings in its instructional content. Specifically, the material is perceived as outdated, overly theoretical, and a lack of authentic, discipline-relevant tasks. Moreover, the results indicate a significant imbalance in skills coverage, with a predominant focus on reading while neglecting listening, speaking, and writing skills that are essential for academic and workplace communication in computer science. The study concludes that the textbook, in its current form, does not adequately align with core ESP principles and therefore requires substantial revision and supplementation with contemporary, practice-oriented materials to better equip students with the communicative competencies demanded by their field.
