Abstract

This study focuses on a class action research (CAR) which tried to apply a method of Inductive Learning in a class of Advanced English Grammar to improve the students’ grammatical competence and to find out whether there were students’ behaviour changes in learning English grammar. This class action research (CAR) was conducted in two cycles. In each cycle, there were four steps, i.e planning, acting, observing, and reflection. Every cycle was conducted in two class meetings. The material for cycle 1 was ‘the position of adjectives’ and the material for cycle 2 was ‘the forms of adjectives.’ The subjects of the study were the 4 semester students of an Advanced English Grammar class in academic year 2011/2012. These students were Literature Study Program students of English Department Unnes. Based on the data analysis, the result of this CAR was quiet satisfying. There was an increasing percentage of students’ test scores between cycle 1 and cycle 2. From test cycle 1, there were 32% students who got less than 70, while this reduced to only 24% students in test cycle 2. In addition, there were 68% students who got 71-100 in test cycle 1 and it increased to 76% students in test cycle 2. Based on the observation sheets and questioners given to the students, most of them liked Inductive Learning method to be applied in grammar classes because this method is fun and interesting. This attitude directly influenced their activity, motivation, and behavior in grammar classes which indirectly also increased their grammatical competence. Finally, the pedagogical implication th of the study is the lecturers and students are supposed to fully motivated to use Inductive Learning method in their grammar classes. This method, hopefully, can improve students’ activity, motivation, behavior, and grammatical competence in learning English grammar.

Abstract

Critical thinking is important in university because students can have some benefits e.g. (1) achieving better marks; (2) reducing their dependency on teachers and text books; and (3) creating their knowledge. Therefore, students are supposed to be able to apply critical thinking skills to all their academic reading, writing, listening and discussing. Book Report and Review is one of the subjects taught in English Department of Unnes. Writing book reviews is not only informational, but also analytic and persuasive. In doing it, consequently, students are required to have critical thinking skills in analysing the content, format, argument, and context to argue that the book is worth reading or not. In order to display critical thinking, they need to develop skills in interpreting, analysing, reasoning, and evaluating. This presentation will focus on how to develop teaching strategies that can foster students critical thinking in writing book reviews. It will discuss the concept of critical thinking for undergraduate students, its implementation in teaching writing book reviews, and its assessment in students book review writing texts.

Abstract

Teaching English to non-native students in Indonesia, especially pre and elementary school students, is farmore problematic than teaching adult students in the same country. These students are not accustomed touse English in their daily lives. When they are given English lesson at school, they often feel afraid, shy, andlack of confidence in using the target language. Students have those feelings mostly when they have topractice speaking English because they find it difficult as they have to master different elements of languagesuch as vocabulary, pronunciation, structures, functions and so on in order to say what they want (Phillips,1993). Consequently, teachers are strongly required to be more patient, to have more preparation time andto be more creative in designing classroom activities. Experts say that young learners are hard toconcentrate and easily distracted. If teachers are not able to manage their students, their classes willbecome chaotic and riotous ones. In order to minimize that condition, teachers need to make anyanticipation so that they, instead of their students, can take control of their classes. One of the ways is bymaking classroom language. This will help teachers to organize their classes and ultimately make theirstudents speak using the target language. This paper promotes classroom language as it is concrete,meaningful, and has communicative nature. Hughes (1990) states that the phrase ‘Open your books at page10, please’ does not make the students only repeat, translate, evaluate as true or false or put into negative,but this makes them do the simple action of opening a textbook after understanding the genuine instruction.Furthermore, classroom phrases help the students to use the target language in appropriate context andindirectly accustom them to the form-function relationships and discrepancies that are parts of English.Considering the phenomena above, this paper offers some techniques that may be used in applyingclassroom language. Some of those techniques include a lot of drilling techniques and fun games.Hopefully, this paper may become one of considerations to be used by EFL teachers in encouraging theirstudents to be able to speak the target language in most of their time in their English classes. However, thispaper is still far of perfection. It still needs a lot of suggestions and deeper discussion from those who aredealing with researches of the same topic.

The procedure of collecting the data was carried out by distributing the intrument of the study in the form of outside-class assignment. Later, the students had to submit their assignments in printed forms. The data were analyzed by using the Azar theory (1989) for the use of tense and word order, and the Boardman-Frydenberg theory (2002) for the use of coherence-cohesion and unity-completeness. Based on the data analysis, it was found out that for the grammatical competence, the most frequent error in students’ expository paragraphs is the use of tense. Whereas, for the discourse competence, the most frequent error in students’ expository paragraphs is the error in using cohesive devices such as the use of transition signals, pronoun, article, dan demonstrative pronoun. Finally, the pedagogical implication of the study is the students are supposed to fully motivated to be active outside their Writing classes in order to improve their grammatical and discourse competence in writing paragraphs.   Keywords: grammatical competence, discourse competence, tense, word order, coherence, cohesion, unity, completeness
