Abstract

This study was an experimental research aimed at examining the effectiveness of Know-Want-Learned and Collaborative Strategic Reading strategies to teach reading comprehension to the eleventh grade students with positive and negative attitudes in SMAN 2 Mranggen, Demak. I used closed-ended questionnaire, observation checklist, and interview to categorize the students’ attitudes into positive and negative. Meanwhile, I used reading comprehension test to test the students’ ability in reading comprehension. The study revealed five results. First, KWL was more effective to students with positive attitudes. Second, CSR was more effective to students with positive attitudes. Third, none was more effective between KWL and CSR strategies to students with positive attitude. Fourth, CSR was more effective than KWL to students with negative attitudes. The last, there was no significant interaction between the strategies and attitudes to teach reading comprehension. However, it could be said that the significance was low. In conclusion, this study has proven that KWL and CSR could help the students in reading comprehension for both students with positive and negative attitudes.

Abstract

This current study tried to examine online brainwriting compared to brainstorming as prewriting strategies in improving the writing skills of students with high and low frequency of LLS. 2 x 2 factorial design of experimental research was carried out to collect the data from 60 college students majoring in Dance Education. Two experimental groups, A and B, were given two different treatments: online brainwriting and brainstorming. SILL by Oxford (1990) was used to determine whether the students have high or low frequency of LLS.The ANOVA test showed ρ=0.000 for both online brainwriting and brainstorming which prove effectiveness of both techniques. It is also found that online brainwriting is proven to be significant for both high and low frequency of LLS students with ρ=0.000. Brainstorming, on the other side, is only significant for high frequency of LLS students with ρ=0.000, yet is proven insignificant for low frequency of LLS students with ρ=0.039.  However, the results showed there was no interaction between the use of prewriting strategies and the frequency of LLS which was proven by the ρ=0.529. Future researchers might consider having a mixed method of study in comparing those two strategies to get more precise results.

Abstract

Writing as the productive skill is considered to be more difficult than any other productive skill. Students face difficulties and commit errors in many different writing skills, especially in mechanics (punctuation, capitalization, and spelling).The study examined the errors of writing skill that  face  first year English college  students of Al-Merghib  University in  related  to  the  three mechanics. There were thirty participants of different genders in the study. They were thirteen males and seventeen females who studies in the first year of English college in Al-Meghib University. To achieve the objectives of the study, qualitative design was employed. The data was collected using two methods: 1) questionnaire to check the participants knowledge about the punctuation, capitalization, and spelling usage and 2) a test to analyze these errors in the respondents written language. To analyze the data, simple statistics description was used. The result of the study found that capitalization error was the most committed one, followed by the punctuation error, and spelling error was the least error committed by the first year English college students. It was concluded that most of the respondents committed some errors because of their lack of knowledge, lack of balance in the curriculum and the influence of mother tongue. Writing classes must engage students with more practices than ask them to deliver lectures. Also, this study provides some helpful suggestions to avoid the identified errors. The study can be used as an insight to the next other researchers and as a reference for similar topics about writing skills. Teachers must pay deep attention to the use of all the punctuation marks, explain the conventions of capitalization, and clarify more about the spelling rules. Students should be encouraged to do home written assignments as much as possible.

Apart from the data taken from the textbooks, interview to two teachers who used the both textbooks were also conducted. The functional texts and model conversations displayed in the textbooks were analyzed using Brown and Levinson’s (1987) politeness strategies and Leech’s (1983) politeness principles.The findings reveal that the both textbooks employ all politeness strategies with equal percentages. In Headway, positive politeness is realized for 68%, bald-on record 24%, negative politeness 7%, and off record 2%. In BahasaInggris, positive politeness is realized for 71%, bald-on record 14%, negative politeness 11%, and off record 3%. Positive politeness are dominant in the both textbooks.

Abstract

Pada dasarnya, pembelajaran mengarang berpengaruh pada minat siswa terhadapjenis-jenis atau genre karangan, namun, ternyata tidak terdapat hubungan antara teoriyang diajarkan dan kemampuan siswa dalam menghasilkan karangan yang berkualitasmemadai. Hal ini disebabkan oleh kenyataan bahwa pengajar tidak atau belummemiliki pemahaman yang mendalam dan keterampilan yang memadai terhadapkarakteristik berbagai genre karangan sehingga tidak mengherankan bahwa di dalamproses pembelajaran tidak terjadi penularan keterampilan itu dari pengajar kepadaasuhannya. Sebagai akibatnya, siswa tidak mampu menuangkan gagasan ke dalamjenis karangan tertentu yang memenuhi syarat-syarat yang diperlukan. Pencapaiantujuan pembelajaran keterampilan mengarang perlu diupayakan dengan berbagaialternatif model pembelajaran. Dalam hubungan itu, tulisan ini mencobamemperkenalkan model Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) untuk pembelajaranketerampilan tersebut. Dengan CDA, siswa diharapkan terbiasa bersikap kritis dankreatif dalam menanggapi berbagai fenomena dan makna yang terdapat di dalamkarya sastra untuk kemudian mereka tuangkan dalam bentuk karangan yang memilikikarakteristik tersendiri. Pemahaman siswa atas berbagai makna dan nilai yangterdapat di dalam berjenis-jenis wacana merupakan prioritas utama model CDA ini.Dalam implementasi model CDA, pengajar dapat menyiapkan tiga tahap, yakni (1)tahap penjelajahan, (2) tahap interpretasi, dan (3) tahap perekaciptan. Dalammengimplementasikan model CDA, pengajar hendaknya mempertimbangkan bahanpengajaran berdasarkan penguasaan bahasa, psikologi siswa, dan latar belakangbudaya siswa.Kata Kunci: Critical Discourse Analysis, model pembelajaran, narrative

Abstract

This study deals with the rendering of ideology found in the English-Indonesian translation of Brontё‘s Jane Eyre. The main objective of this study is to investigate the rendering ideology in Brontё‘s Jane Eyre from English into Indonesian which is realized in the vocabulary and grammar choices used by the translator in translating ideology in Jane Eyre from English into Indonesian. It used descriptive qualitative approach. Moreover, Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) proposed by Fairclough (1989) is used as the framework of the study. The data obtained were taken from ‗Jane Eyre‘ by Charlotte Brontё and it is translated by Lulu Wijaya entitled Jane Eyre. The unit of analysis of the study was ideological content including word, phrase, clause, sentence, and paragraph contained in Jane Eyre and its translation.The results showed that there are 120 ideologically loaded-data which is categorized into Ideology. They are ideology as tacit assumptions, beliefs and value systems. Meanwhile, there are 32 (27%) data which are not lexically equivalent in the Indonesian translation. Thus, the remaining data represent the ideology of the source text in the same way. Based on those findings, the writers concluded that most of the ideologically-contested words, nominalizations, and voices are rendered into Indonesian. There are no ideological differences between the source text and its translation. Furthermore, the translators mostly expressed ideology of the source similarly by means of selecting similar lexical choices. It means that translator‘s ideology in the source text and their translation in the target text reach ideological equivalent.

Abstract

This research was conducted to observe sixteen seven graders of Mondial Junior High School’ academic literacy in their academic written texts. The participants were accustomed to using English at their school. Yet, when they had to produce academic texts, the texts were produced in the level of knowledge-telling, which lacked time to plan and to set the goals. The data of this study were taken from their quizzes and final test of four subjects with different genres of texts. Because the quizzes and final test were graded, the quality of the data is ensured. The analysis was observed qualitatively from three dimensions, i.e. the linguistic, cognitive, and socio-cultural dimensions of literacy. To describe each dimension, there were some descriptors to guide the analysis process. The result shows that in general, the sixteen learners’ academic literacy was fairly good. However, some parts of the dimension of academic literacy such as the linguistic and socio-cultural dimensions should be improved in order to master the holistic dimensions of literacy. The learners should be introduced to some genres of texts which were considered new for them such as explanation text. Their mastery towards past tense should also be improved.
