Abstract

Numerous studies have investigated the phenomenon of students’ silence in the EFL classroom context. However, they are less attention in documenting the emergence of the teacher’s perception. Therefore, the present research aimed to dig the teacher’s perception and also seek the solution or teaching strategies that can be applied for encouraging silent students in the learning. The research is a case study and the data collection is using qualitative design through a semi-structured interview which involves a female teacher who has taught for about 30 years in one secondary school in Tasikmalaya. The data is analyzed thematically and the results showed that the teacher perceived the phenomenon of students’ silence into psychological aspects, students’ low self-motivation, and low self-confidence in language learning. The present research revealed that teacher’s perception influences all of the actions that applied in the classroom. The contributions are also viewed from the present study. They are teaching strategies such as integrated game-based learning (GBL), incorporated role-play, group presentation, and built a positive teacher-student relationship, and conducted external encouragement like appreciation. Those can be practiced by the teacher, novice teacher, or student-teacher particularly in dealing with the phenomenon of students’ silence itself.

Eleven years old Indonesian participant in this research experienced to have a special condition which makes her difficult to focus, but then, exposed to more than one language since she was a young age. Along with the proper parenting styles, this study gives empirical insight into the factors and strategies that contributed to maximising the children’s language development. Data were taken from observation of the video taken from the participant 3-4 years old until now, interviews with both the child and mother, and documentation showed that innate factors and strategies including watching and listening, imitating and repeating, storytelling and self-talking, doing minimal grasp strategy, code-switching and move-on strategies, and giving educational support and motivations are supported to the child to have the bilingual capacity in her communication. However, the milestone or stages of children’s bilingual development has not been investigated yet. Thus, to get a deeper understanding, future studies should investigate the milestone of children’s bilingual language development the findings can be extended to which could inform other researchers about what should be conducted next in the case that the longitudinal observation is needed.

Abstract

In the process of teaching listening, anxiety is believed as a negative factor contributing to the students’ poor listening comprehension and quite possibly the affective factor that the most persistently hinders the learning process. Thus, investigating its existence and delving its factors become salient in order to help the students overcome their listening learning barriers. This present study attempts to depict the condition of the students’ listening anxiety in an Academic Listening (AL) class in an Indonesian tertiary context. 20-items of Foreign Language Listening Anxiety’s (hereafter, FLLA) questionnaire were administered to 97 students taking that course. Having finished analyzing the levels of students’ listening anxiety, in-depth interviews were conducted to four students who were considered having high listening anxiety to disclose the underlying factors. The research result revealed three pivotal issues; a) 54.6% of the students had a relatively high level of listening anxiety, 18.5% had moderate listening anxiety, and 26.8% had a low level of listening anxiety; b), 75% of the chosen measured items showed an extreme level of the students’ listening anxiety, and c) the major factor contributing the listening anxiety was inadequate listening proficiency involving the inability to deal with the rapid speech rate and range of lexical choices.
