Abstract

Reading is a comprehending process that involves complex steps. Despite the important role of reading comprehension, many researchers indicate that the students’ reading comprehension skill is not satisfactory yet. This situation is also found in MAN 3 Malang. The students were found to have difficulty in comprehending the reading text because of low ability in reading, especially in drawing on their prior knowledge. Thus, the researcher implemented the Making Connection Technique in the reading lessons in collaboration with the classroom teacher. This technique has several steps; they are text to text, text to self, and text to world. The design of this research was Classroom Action Research covering four stages; they were planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. The subjects of the study were 29 students of class XI SCIENCE 1 of MAN 3 Malang. The instruments used to collect the data were students’ reading comprehension pre and post-test), observation checklist, and field notes. Since the researcher aimed to know whether the technique helped the students in both the lower and upper groups, this research is successful if there was a significant improvement from their pre and post-test scores. The findings of this study revealed that by using the Making Connection technique, the student's reading comprehension scores had achieved the criteria of success. The students also showed a positive attitude during the implementation of the technique. The several procedures of using the technique found are (1) making text to text-connection in the group, (2) making text to self-connection in the group, (3) making text to world-connection in the group, and (4) having a class discussion related to the results of their discussion. Based on the research findings, the researcher suggested English teachers to implement the making connection technique in more interesting ways. Future researchers can investigate the use of making connection technique for other research purposes

Abstract

The Jeda Nulis podcast has become one of the channels that offers a lot of engaging discussions and interesting content related to current issues. The objectives of this research are to describe the types of presupposition containing code-switching in the Jeda Nulis podcast, explain the factors causing code-switching in presuppositions within the Jeda Nulis podcast, and discuss the implications of the Jeda Nulis podcast in teaching expository texts to high school students (Class X). This study utilizes a qualitative approach, and the data sources are the host Habib Ja’far and guest speaker Onad. The data were obtained from language activities in a video podcast that was aired on YouTube on December 31, 2021. The research data consist of presuppositional discourse containing code-switching and the factors causing code-switching in presuppositions. Data collection techniques include documentation, observation, and note-taking. The analysis of the data reveals various types of presuppositions containing code-switching, such as existential presupposition, factual presupposition, nonfactual presupposition, lexical presupposition, structural presupposition, and counterfactual presupposition. The factors causing code-switching in presuppositions include limitations in code use, the use of more popular terms, the speaker's characteristics, the desire for prestige, the main topic of discussion, language variety and register, the interlocutor, and the use of humor.
