Abstract

Abstract: Putting more attention on teaching language skills, the use of literature in EFL classrooms is often abandoned. While essentially, exploiting literary texts in some advanced EFL courses, serves a variety of purposes, dedicated to encourage interactive and communicative classes for language learners at different levels of proficiency. Literary texts often offer cultural explorations through the embedded cultural contexts in the stories. Indeed, exploring literary works provides an exercise in cultural relativity, so that students are more aware of the cultural differences presented in various contexts. Both teachers and students need to get involved in class discussions and activities which are created to support deep exploration of cultures in the texts. This paper reports on the use of literature circles in an advanced EFL classroom to reinforce students‘ cultural awareness through the examination of classic literatures as well as contemporary realist fiction. The two genres of literatures also bring about multicultural issues which are worth noting in an attempt of developing students‘ cutural awareness. In the research, it is further found that distributing students in small discussion groups has encouraged more ―talking‖ and improved students‘ written responses. In addition, teachers discovered that cultural values and attitudes are easily transferred through the characters in the literary works.Keywords: literature circles in EFL classroom, classic literatures, contemporary realist fictions.

Abstract

This paper serves as a preliminary study of the dialogic supervision as a breakthrough to improve the performance of pre-service English teachers in a Program Latihan Profesi/Professional Training Program (PLP). In detail, this research is aimed at: (1) investigating the pattern of ongoing PLP supervising, (2) identifying if there is an indication of dialogical supervision and (3) identifying the difficulties the pre-service teachers faced during their supervision. The Research and Development was designed for three years. The subjects of this research are pre-service teachers, supervisory teacher and supervisory lecturer.  The data were collected through three instruments, such as observation, interview with pre-service teachers, interview with both supervisory teachers and lecturers, and questionnaires distributed to the pre-service teachers. The first-year findings show that the current supervision pattern tends to be conventional as seen from several aspects: face-to-face technique, formal situation, instructional language, supervisory lecturer and the teacher still dominate in the supervision discussion, non-problem based supervision topic, and the low frequency of meetings. On the other hand, some points are identified within the pattern of dialogical supervision, i.e., collegial language, independent reflection, friendly, flexibility of time and place.  Besides, there are some problems faced by the supervisory lecturers and teachers, among other time limitation, less contextual supervision material, poor coordination, ineffective feedback. Therefore, the solutions include supervision planning coordinated by all three parties and made into a schedule, optimum use of social media, supervision material selection is based on the needs of the pre-service teachers.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the language proficiency level of primary English language teachers’ (PELTs) productive skills (speaking and writing) analyzed using the Common European Framework of References (CEFR) and Kurikulum Merdeka. As a foreign language in Indonesia, English language proficiency among PELTs is crucial to determine the success of the learning process in a classroom. Furthermore, PELTs should also possess adequate language proficiency to communicate effectively with students in any situation. However, several local context studies show the low language proficiency level possessed by PELTs. The low proficiency level was mostly gained through general English tests, for example TOEFL, which focuses on teachers’ receptive skills (listening and reading) and structure. A qualitative approach and case study research design were employed in this study. It was identified that the majority of teachers’ productive skills proficiency level is categorized into the B1/B2 level of CEFR. Additionally, the mixed level of proficiency among PELTs is still apparent which can create issues regarding primary-students’ language development and the standard of proficiency level that PELTs should be. Therefore, by involving subject teachers' communities and the government, a standard of language proficiency for PELTs should be developed.Mengidentifikasi tingkat kemahiran keterampilan produktif guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar dari Kurikulum Merdeka dan CEFRPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi tingkat kemahiran berbahasa guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar di bidang keterampilan produktif (berbicara dan menulis) yang dianalisis menggunakan Common European Framework of References (CEFR) dan Kurikulum Merdeka. Sebagai bahasa asing di Indonesia, kemahiran berbahasa Inggris di antara guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar sangat penting untuk menentukan keberhasilan dalam proses pembelajaran di dalam kelas. Selain itu, guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar juga harus memiliki kemahiran berbahasa yang cukup untuk berkomunikasi secara efektif dengan siswa di berbagai situasi. Namun, beberapa studi berkonteks lokal menunjukkan rendahnya tingkat kemahiran berbahasa oleh guru bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar. Tingkat kemahiran yang rendah mayoritas diketahui dari uji bahasa Inggris umum seperti TOEFL yang fokus pada kemampuan reseptif guru (menyimak dan membaca) dan struktur. Pendekatan kualitatif dan desain penelitian studi kasus digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Ditemukan bahwa mayoritas tingkat ke­mahiran keterampilan produktif berbahasa Inggris guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar dikategorikan ke dalam tingkat B1/B2 menurut CEFR. Selain itu, beragamnya tingkat kemahiran berbahasa Inggris guru tingkat dasar masih kentara sehingga dapat mengakibatkan masalah pada perkembangan berbahasa siswa tingkat dasar dan pengukuran standar tingkat kemahiran berbahasa guru Bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar. Oleh karena itu, dengan melibatkan komunitas guru dan pemerintah, sebuah standar untuk tingkat kemahiran guru bahasa Inggris tingkat dasar harus dikembangkan.
