Abstract

Professional teachers are an essential element in realizing the quality of education (Boyle, 2013). The teaching practice program is conducted as one of the training programs to become professional teachers for the pre-service teachers. During this program, EFL pre-service teachers begin to construct their teacher identity with various images of teachers. This case study explored the process of the pre-service teachers' identity construction from the perspective of sociocultural theory and the factors that contribute to the process. By distributing interviews and personal narratives to three EFL pre-service teachers in Wiralodra University, findings demonstrated that the process of pre-service teachers' identity construction is complex and personal. The teachers' identity construction involves both personal and social perspectives. From a personal perspective, it involves emotions and the self (self-image and self-esteem), and social perspective involves experiences and social interaction. This study also found that the preparation of materials and the choice of suitable methods and media for learning became challenges for the pre-service teachers. In addition, the pre-service teachers' identity construction is influenced by some factors. For example, they were mentoring and supervising, tensions, identity recognition, previous teaching experiences, pedagogy, content-area knowledge, relationship with students. That led to the development of pre-service teachers' identities.

Abstract

Today, media has become primary needs as food and clothing. It has played significant role in strengthening the society that is as a "mirror" of the modern society. It’s used not only to inform people about current, new affairs and what is happening around them and the world but also to form opinions and make judgments regarding various issues. Cohen, (1963); McCombs & Shaw, (1972) stated that when mass media emphasize a topic, the audience/public receiving the message will consider this topic to be important. However, systemic functional grammar is concerned primarily with the grammar choices makes available to speakers and writers. These choices relate speakers' and writers' intentions to the concrete forms of a language. This study is attempt to investigate the interpersonal meaning (mood), ideational meaning (transitivity) and textual meaning (theme) of news item text entitled “Nikita Mirzani: I`m Not a Prostitute”.The news becomes very interesting for some people, because this news is indicated as distractor issue for Freeport cases.After analyzing the mood system in this text, so the writer can conclude that all of the information in this news is declarative mood. For example when the Nikita stated you can confront me with O and F (pimp suspects). I do not know them. This proof gives us justification that the speakers indeed intentionally give fruitful and clear information to each other. The use of full declaratives here also indicates that the text shares a common focus on the giving of information. There is only full declarative in this text, there is no full polar interrogative, full WH-interrogative, imperative and so on. After we discuss the mood types, and then move on the next table, about Modality and Polarity. There are four modality used in this text. Those are the use of can (two times), could and might. So, it assumes that some information given is in the form of “advice”.Based on the table above, it also can be concluded that there are five transitivity process used in this text. The major process used in this text is attributive process. In the second place is material, mental and verbal process with 17,7 %. Then, the last is 5,8% process of this text used behavioral process. In this text, there are also three major circumstance used those are location, extent and manner with frequency 25%. Then it’s continued by role and cause circumstance with 12,5%. In this text the system of Theme and Rheme provides important ways in which textual meanings at the clause level may be established. Theme-Rheme structure allows information to flow from one clause to another. The logical flow helps create cohesiveness of the text in the news. Theme is realized by position (initial). In the SFL an analysis of language, pattern of thematic choice are seen as realizing textual meanings, which in turn are the realization of mode dimensions of the context of situation, thus thematic choice realize meanings about the organization of the communicative event and the experiential and interpersonal distance.

Abstract

Various applications or online learning media are scattered during the Covid-19 pandemic. One of them is Zoom which is beneficial for communicating remotely; all teacher explanations can be conveyed clearly without having to meet physically. This study aims to discover the challenges in managing students’ interaction and the level of student participation by using the Zoom application in teaching English during the Covid-19 pandemic. This descriptive case study reported that the preservice teachers’ challenges in managing student-to-teacher interaction while learning English using the Zoom application were the lack of feedback given by students to the teacher, the lack of immediacy between students and teachers, and the internet connection. Meanwhile, in managing student-to-student interaction, the challenges are lack of interaction, motivation, and social presence. The student participation in learning English using zoom was at the level of inbound participants. The students use verbal or oral as their way to contribute and participate in online discussions. In addition, students also provide interesting questions and meaningful feedback so that the three indicators refer to the characteristics possessed by inbound participants. This study concludes that feedback and immediacy by teachers are consistently needed during online meetings. To build meaningful interaction among students, interaction, motivation, and social presence should be maintained. Students’ awareness of interaction, motivation, and social presence in online meetings is essential. Although teachers and students have online meetings, inbound participation is reflected. The students do their verbal and oral online as they do in offline meetings.

Abstract

Writing is one of the skills in English which is quite difficult to master because writing is a thinking activity or thought process that we put into the form of text or sentences. The definition is also supported by Harris (2014), who stated that writing is an activity of thinking to find or put ideas, concepts, and feelings that are expressed through writing in the form of sentences or paragraphs with the aim of readers understanding the intent and purpose of the author. This research was conducted to find out the errors that appeared in students' writing, especially in recount text. This research was carried out using a qualitative method which used document instruments from the results of students' writing on recount texts. Then, from the results of the documents written by the students, the researchers examined them to find out what errors often appeared in student writing, especially in recount texts. The results of this study show that errors in students' writing include omission, addition, misformation, and misordering. Then the results of this study also show that the most frequent errors in student writing are misformation with a total of 177 errors, the second is misordering errors with a total of 17, the third is omission errors with a total of 8, and the last is addition errors with a total of 4. The results of this study provide significant results for teachers and especially students. A significant research result for teachers is being able to provide evaluations of their teaching methods to students to provide more effective methods. Then the results of this study provide evaluations to students on how they do something, especially in writing activities.
