Abstract

This study explored the oral communication strategies used by grade 12 students in online classroom discussion. In specific, it dealt with the following research objectives: identifying the types of oral communication strategies used by the students during online classroom discussion and determining the factors that influenced the grade 12 students in using specific types of oral communication strategies. Using content analysis, the recorded discussion in an online classroom, particularly the responses of the students, were transcribed, analyzed, and interpreted. A semi-structured interview was conducted to determine the factors that influenced the students in using the specific type of oral communication strategies. Thus, the triangulation method was used. The findings of this study revealed that 18 out 34 oral communication strategies in Dornyei and Scott (1997)’s taxonomy of oral communication strategies was evidently implemented during online classroom discussion. The lack of linguistic knowledge (vocabulary and structure of English language), and the lack of confidence in using English language during online classroom discussion, combined with the inability to grasp ideas, experiencing speaking anxiety, and other external factors such as having a poor internet connection and the choice of language used by the teacher during online classroom discussion, were the factors that influenced the students in using oral communication strategies during online classroom discussion.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the learners' views and reflections on task-based instruction in teaching 21st Century literature from the Philippines and the World Subject. Specifically, the following objectives were attained: to determine the understanding of learners in the concept of task and task-based instruction, to know learners' perceptions in the implementation of task and task-based instruction used by the teacher in teaching 21st Century Literature subject, to point out the problems encountered by the students and how the students overcome those problems in performing task-based activities. 73 grade 11 students served as the respondents of this study. Using the descriptive method, specifically survey and interview, the study revealed that most students clearly understood the concept of task and task-based instruction. However, some students only agreed that performing tasks and the teacher's task-based instruction in teaching 21st Century Literature use the English language. The majority of the respondents strongly agreed that task and task-based instruction is implemented in their 21st Century Literature class. External factors, language used in the instructions written in the module, interest in literature and familiarity with literary materials, and difficulty level of task-based activities in the module are problems that the respondents encountered during the implementation of task-based instruction in their 21st Century Literature class. While seeking classmates' and teacher's assistance, teacher's motivation and teaching strategies, and self-initiative and motivation are the means for the students to overcome the difficulties they encountered in implementing the task and task-based instruction in 21st Century Literature class.
