Abstract

Ideally, pronunciation teaching materials should be developed based on the equal proportion of segmental and suprasegmental features and the employment of innovative pronunciation learning task types (e.g. awareness-raising tasks, rhyme and verse, ear training, etc.) (Goodwin, 2013). Unfortunately, such a reasonable breakthrough apparently has not responded by the effective use of pronunciation teaching materials. For these reasons, this study was aimed at exploring the pronunciation teaching materials in Pronunciation Practice module and course syllabus at a university in Tasikmalaya, Indonesia. The data were analyzed with Tergujeff’s data-driven classification (2010), namely phonetic training, reading aloud, listen and repeat, rhyme and verse, rules and instructions, awareness-raising activities, spelling and dictation and ear training. The findings revealed that the existing pronunciation teaching materials only accentuated on fostering the students’ segmental features. Besides, the traditional task types still dominated the tasks in such a module, such as phonetic training, reading aloud, listen and repeat and rules and instructions. This confirms that the creative and dynamic use of current pronunciation teaching materials enable the students not only to undergo accuracy-oriented exercises but also fluency-based activities.

Abstract

The employment of Target Language (hereafter, TL) in English language teaching practices has burgeoned significantly. One of the reasons generating such an issue is the notion of providing students (non-native English students) sufficient exposures of English. Conversely, little is known about how English as the TL is deployed as a medium of instruction and communication among teachers and students, notably in the Indonesian junior high school remains under-researched. Hence, this study aimed at scrutinizing such an investigative issue. The participant was a female English teacher applying English as a medium of communication and instruction in the classroom learning practices. The data were garnered through non-participant observations and analyzed thematically (Braun Clarke, 2006). The findings outlined that utilizing the target language in pre- and post- activities and commanding the student by using the target language become an obvious picture of how the TL is used as a medium of instruction and communication among teachers and students. Pedagogically speaking, encouraging students to communicate in the TL (English) enables them to generate their willingness to communicate in the TL and language awareness of the significance of TL in the classroom learning practices.

Abstract

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, it requires that the learning process, including teaching English at the elementary school level, is carried out with an online learning system. Implementing an online learning system is closely related to the use of technology. Smartphone is one of the technology tools that are widely used in facilitating the online learning process. Hence, the study in this article was to see the perception of an elementary school teacher in integrating smartphones during the English teaching process. Based on the research, the researchers used a case study as a research design, semi-structured interviews, and online observations in collecting the data. Then, the data were analyzed by using thematic analysis, which was also elaborated with the TPACK framework from the theory of Mishra and Koehler in 2006. The study reveals two responses related to the teacher’s perception of using smartphones, namely negative and positive responses. In the negative response, three perceptions generated were (1) ineffective delivery of subject materials, (2) the issue in managing students, and (3) internet access problems. In addition, the positive responses include (1) smartphones as an adequate teaching medium, (2) an affordable platform for smartphones to teach, and (3) YouTube channels as a fun way to learn for young learners. In conclusion, using smartphones in teaching English to students at the elementary school level certainly raised the negative and positive reactions from the teacher during the teaching process. Thus, teaching English to young learners required the teacher’s role to teach technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge adequately.

Abstract

Recently, multimodality has attracted the attention of researchers, notably in the educational milieu. However, only a few studies reported on the way students perceived the use of Genre-Based Multimodal Texts Analysis (GBMTA) for teaching multimodality. After addressing the gap, this study focuses on students’ perceptions on the use of GBMTA in multimodality teaching in higher education. Sixty-nine students were involved in the study. Each of the students produced one journal through three meetings. The journals were then collected for document analysis and thematic analysis (Braun Clarke, 2006). The findings reveal that the students perceived GBMTA as facilitating them in the building of multimodal discourse analysis, challenges and solutions of comprehending multimodal teaching materials, planning better learning strategies in the future, engagement on multimodal learning issues, and multimodal text analysis practices. This study contributes to multimodality teaching or multimodal discourse analysis within genre-based learning.

It focuses on investigating the factors affecting students’ silence in the synchronous virtual classroom from the students’ perception. This study used a descriptive case study as the research design. This study used semi-structured interviews as the data collection. A semi-structured interview was asked to five silent students in the synchronous virtual classroom. Then, the data were analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun and Clarke, 2006). The findings indicate various causes of students’ silence in the synchronous virtual classrooms: lack of confidence, describing comprehension by silence, lack of knowledge, lack of English proficiency, being a good listener and showing respect, lack of preparation for learning, unsuitable teaching style, and technical issues. Keywords: students’ silence, synchronous virtual classroom, case study
