Abstract

Learning other language is not just translating ideas into the targeted language, but it is an act of learning the whole set of the language itself. In the context of teaching English as a Foreign Language, teachers take very crucial role. They should be able to set such atmosphere where their students can be exposed into English environment as much as possible. On the other hand, maintaining the use English at all time is a difficult task to do, since the vocabulary of the foreign learners, often, is very limited. It creates a challenge for the teacher, in terms of making the students comprehend a certain word that they do not understand previously. Shifting into the mother tongue is surely the easiest escape from this matter. However, a teacher should be creative enough to find alternatives that allow the students to learn new words while the use of English is maintained. There are techniques that a teacher can use to provide comprehension to the students without shifting into the mother tongue.

Abstract

This paper presents issues on foreign language use in the context of language education in Indonesia. Some people believe that our “old” language(s) would only hinder the acquisition of a “new” one. Whatever the reason it is wrong to leave the language(s) we have already acquired in attempt to acquire a new one. Even, in the case of our national language, Indonesian, we have to preserve it, develop it and, when possible, upgrade its position among the important languages of the world. One way is by using it properly for communication while learning another (foreign) language. Just as any other skills acquisition, the key to success in a foreign language learning is practice. Since foreign language learning environment is in general not conducive to have automatic practices, hard, deliberate efforts are frequently required for compensation. Unfortunately, only few learners do this. Therefore, our discussion is centered around learner strategies. In relation with this, foreign language teacher professionalism is crucial. Classroom activities he/she develops should be able to create setting for target language intensive use and build learner autonomy – a condition scarcely observed in our language classrooms.

Abstract

Opening plays a very crucial period in the course of a lesson. Just like other expressions to illustrate the energy it gives, the analogies could be “Love at the first sight”, or, “First impression (of you) is so exciting, the rest is up to you”. Lessons opening, when it is made beneficial to the students, serves as a fire trigger, providing them with strong power at the start, and sustains “eternal flame” till the end of the lesson. This article argues the rationale behind it and presents some ways of creating such lessons opening in the context of English language teaching.

Abstract

“Writing is difficult”. That might be the most common expression when the students are asked to make a writing composition, especially an English language composition. Actually, writing is a challenging activity not only for the students but also for the teacher. From the students’ point of view, writing is about finding the idea, organizing it, making sentences, and constructing them into coherent paragraphs or essay. Unfortunately, the students have lack of vocabulary to write and motivation in joining writing class. On the other side, the teacher is struggling with how to make the students able to find the ideas, then build them to make a good composition. The teacher must empower many kinds of media and also methods as well as techniques to make the writing class fun and effective. Hopefully, by practicing those suggested methods and techniques the students writing ability can be significantly improved.

This study investigates the application of blended learning using the Google Classroom in EFL teaching and learning in the "new normal" era of the COVID-19 pandemic. The research also examines the teachers' perceptions and the obstacles they encountered while applying the Google Classroom for blended learning. The study is a mixed-method survey. As many as thirty-eight English teachers from 25 schools in the town of Wonosobo, Indonesia, participated in the study. They were recruited on a purposive sampling basis. Close-ended questionnaires and interviews were used to collect the data. The finding has revealed that the teachers' perception of using blended learning through the Google Classroom is 83%, falling into the category "Extremely Effective." This result indicated that the Google Classroom is beneficial for teaching-learning activities and effective for student learning outcome. Students could access the teacher-provided learning resources anytime and from any location. However, utilizing the Google Classroom is not obstacles free, with an average of 78% belonging to a "high" difficulty level. Furthermore, the finding has shown that teaching and learning activities using the Google Classroom continue to confront hurdles such as data quota, internet access, and restrictions imposed by the Google Classroom features.

Abstract

The so-called “Freedom-to-Learn” Curriculum has been implemented in Indonesia. However, in its application, the teachers seemed to face some challenges in executing their teaching plans. The aim of this research is to examine the challenges encountered by junior high school English teachers in the town of Banyumas, Indonesia, and to explore the strategies used by the teachers to confront the challenges. This is qualitative research that uses interviews, observations, and documents to collect the data. The study revealed that there are some challenges faced by the teachers: lack of understanding of the concept, lack of preparation, learning loss, big class size, and adjustment of a simultaneous summative test. Although there are some challenges, the learning process must continue. Therefore, the teachers used some strategies to meet the challenges: taking training, attending an English Teachers’ Association meetings, creating an exciting and enjoyable learning environment, implementing the differentiated learning, and conducting an evaluation. The Freedom-to Learn Curriculum provides flexibility to educators to create quality learning that suits the needs and learning environment of students. Although the reality shows that it has not reached the curricular goal yet, all parties have tried to do their best.

Abstract

In the previous years, the students at the place where the present study was conducted were taught the English connected speech through drill. This used to bring about students’ poor attitudes and unsatisfactory achievement. This study was aimed at examining if selected songs would improve the students’ connected speech performance. Nonequivalent Control Group Design was used in this experimental study. It involved six intact groups of students attending Pronunciation course – three were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the remaining three assigned to the control group. Both groups were pre-tested. The results were equal. After 3 sessions of connected speech lesson both groups were tested again. The post-test results of these two groups were then compared to see if the sample means were significantly different. As the study also aimed to find out the students’ perception towards the teaching practice implemented, a questionnaire was employed. The t-test showed that the difference of the sample means was not significantly large. Nevertheless, based on the feedbacks that were elicited through the questionnaire, the use of songs for teaching the English connected speech seemed to remain promising. Overall, the study showed that the use of songs for teaching the English connected speech tended to indicate a prospective better learning outcome. As the experiment took only 3 sessions, the chance for such treatment to be effective is increased if period of study is extended.
