Abstract

Communication problems may occur in EIL contexts when English language users from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds conveying their messages. Being intelligible should not be seen as simple as pronunciation problems but it has other essential issues beyond it. To overcome such problem, there is a need for the English language learners to be aware of the intelligibility issues. This paper discusses the importance of introducing the intelligibility issues in EIL contexts for English language learners at secondary education in order to prepare them to communicate effectively with the diverse English language users around the world. The analytical scheme developed by Hu and McKay (2014) which defines the dimension of integrating multilingual and multicultural practices is adopted to select the YouTube video clips for the teaching materials. This practical guidance for introducing the intelligibility issues to the secondary school students could be employed by the English teachers to raise their students’ awareness toward the construct of intelligibility in EIL contexts.

Abstract

Peer feedback on oral presentation is still an unexplored area. Much research has been conducted on peer feedback in various teaching and learning contexts, only a few about how peer gives feedback on his/her partner’ oral presentations. The study described here focuses using peer feedback on oral presentations. Analyzing data from semi-structured interviews, this case study investigated impact of giving peer feedback on oral presentations used by English as Foreign Language (EFL) college students on other student’s oral presentation tasks. Data analysis revealed that the peer gave oral feedback mainly focused on content-related criteria (quality of introduction, structure, and conclusion). Most of the peers focused on the nature of the delivery (eye-contact, vocal delivery, enthusiasm, interaction with the audience and body-language), and a few focused on a general quality and on the design of the students’ PowerPoint (PPT) slides.

Abstract

This study aims to improve students' understanding of linguistics by using a jigsaw strategy. It is constituted as a linguistic study about language in overall. Language is a communication tool for a person which has several systems. Thus, the language itself is important to be learned and understood, especially for the students of the language. Another reason is the existence of several phenomena that researchers have encountered in the classroom in English language courses of STKIP PGRI SUMBAR. The study of language that is learned is English or English linguistic. First, English is a foreign language which is not easy to be learned. The second, the material on this language is a complete knowledge that cannot be separated from one another. Meanwhile, the time provided only 2.5 hours per week. Students are expected to understand the concept of language, how to communicate, sounds, words, meanings and applications. Third problem is learning strategies used by lecturers. Lecturer asks students to learn in groups. Each group will present a different material each week. Then the others respond, causing discussion. This strategy is less effective against the student's understanding. Discussion only occurs for students who had studied. Most of them are just silent. Likewise, group presentations, it will dominate only one or two students. The others are just as followers. So in this study the researcher wants to apply the jigsaw to solve the above problems.Type of research is a Classroom Action Research. It would increase the students' understandings of linguistic of STKIP PGRI SUMBAR. Participants that would be used were the student of English at STKIP PGRI SUMBAR who were taking the course Introduction to Linguistics. The data were collected through observation would also be assisted by collaborator. The instruments to be used are notes, interviews, and tests. The data is analysed by classifying based on the characteristics. Then, the data would be interpreted to see whether the jigsaw can increase students' understanding of linguistics or not.

Abstract

Controlling undergraduate students’ tasks and supervising the process via online could decrease the quality of the task, since online feedback could not be well transmitted, which then resulted in unexpected revision.  Therefore, this research was aimed at finding out the effectiveness of SHARINGPLUS. This research used the action research method, done to twenty students in even semester 2020/2021. The model contained kinds of tasks with indicators and sub-indicators, list of students, and task options related to their final grades. The model contains eleven stages for every kind of task, but the students who succeed in doing the task until stage 4 do not need to do the following steps. Only the students with difficulty should follow the steps until the end. Findings showed that 45 % participants could follow 4 processes (SHAR). They worked in R stage repeatedly, since there was no limitation of task submission. The remaining students found difficulty in working in the system so that they could not finish their tasks  in the system. Thus, conclusion can be stated that the model was not yet effective to make students work as expected so that it needs more development.

This is a quantitative study using the quasi-experiment method with a nonequivalent control group design. The experiment group received treatment using Powtoon, while the control group used PowerPoint. The test was utilized to gather data, and one paired sample test was used to analyze it. Meanwhile, the results of the hypothesis test state that H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted based on the sig value.(2-tailed) on the posttest value of the experimental group and the posttest control group with a value of 0.035, which means less than 0.05 The results showed that Powtoon learning media had a significant effect on students' reading comprehension in eight-grade Students at SMPN 40 Padang.
