Abstract

This was a quantitative experimental study with the aim of finding out the result of using the Two-stay–two-stray (TS-TS) technique to develop young learners’ speaking skills, and motivation. The method used was a one group pre-test and post-test design: The instruments were the pre-test, the post-test and a questionnaire. The population was all the middle school students at SMPN2 in Idi Timur, East Aceh and the sample was the second grade students at SMPN2 Idi Timur chosen by using purposive sampling. The students’ achievements were tested by using a test and their motivation was measured by using a questionnaire. A pre-test and a post-test were given before and after the treatment. The results showed that the mean score from the pre-test was 54 and from the post-test it was 66. The result from the t-score was 9.37, while the critical value from the t-table was 2.06 at the level of significance of 0.01 it was 2.78 with 25 degrees of freedom. Since the result from the t-test was higher than the t-table, the alternative hypothesis was accepted. This proved that using the Two-stay-two-stray technique improved the speaking skills of the sample young learners. Regarding motivation, the students’ opinion about motivation in speaking English and the results from their pre-test were contradictory. Based on the answers to some questions in the questionnaire, the students showed lack of interest in developing their English speaking skills: Yet more than 50% of the students said that they practiced continuously so that their English speaking ability would get better. This means that these, students may still not be aware whether they are motivated or not in speaking English.

Abstract

Teaching internship programs are designed to smooth the transition from student to teacher. At the same time the teaching internship assignment gives the teacher training institutions an opportunity to evaluate the teaching capabilities of their soon-to-graduate students. It  is one of the most important components of the teacher training program; an opportunity for student teachers to put their theoretical studies into practice. The objective of this study was to investigate the constraints faced by student teachers during their teaching internship programs. A qualitative method was employed in this study, which involved 26 students from the 2016/2017 teaching internship program at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, University of Syiah Kuala. A convenient random sampling technique was used to select the sample and a questionnaire was used as the instrument to collect the data which was analyzed using the Miles and Huberman method. Based on the results there were fourteen constraints faced by the student teachers during their teaching internship programs. The constraints were mainly in the domains of personal matters, class participation, class management, instructional methods, emotional issues, adjusting to students and quality of supervision. As teaching practice is an important component of a teacher training program, considerable attention must be given to make it highly effective and fruitful. Therefore, this study suggests that more co-operation from the faculty and the schools is needed in terms of supervision to improve and optimize the outcomes from this program.
