Abstract

This study tried to investigate the application of the Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) in analyzing the relationships between the markers used in the four texts and identify the types of the marker relationship and their functions in the whole clauses. It found out that RST operated with highly generalized Rhetorical Relations, such as elaboration, sequence, and motivation; it was intended to be applicable across a variety of different registers. Based on the analysis of texts 1-4, it was also found that the texts apply four types of elements of a clause complex covering elaboration, enhancement, projection, and extension. These findings are in line with the logical meaning which functions to realize its existence and application in some forms of news stories being analyzed. Therefore, teaching of Grammar and Writing Subjects should involve the process of discourse development and news stories so that students will enhance and update their knowledge and improve their understanding.

This present research aims at analyzing and describing the politeness of non-verbal communication which was used by English teachers in EFL classrooms. Qualitative research was applied in this research. There were five English teachers chosen purposely as the participants. The data were the pictures of teachers’ gestures.

Secondly, the researcher investigated students’ literacy about interview students’ reading habit at school and home and gave test to measure their ability to comprehend the text.

Teachers hold an important role to build a solid reading habits to increase students’ literacy, specifically in EFL reading. Thus, in order to build that good reading habits, teachers must have their own good reading habits. Teachers need to consistently increase their reading time on daily basis and starts to collect many sources of reading.

The implementation of this PkM was carried out using socialization, lecture, training (workshops), and guidance methods. After giving the training, the students were presented with a questionnaire containing 7 questions to find out their perceptions of the benefits of the training for the development of their creative-productive abilities. Their answers were analyzed using descriptive qualitative, namely the number of answers divided by the number of students multiplied by 100%. The results of the data analysis showed that 50 (or: 26%) respondents were very capable, 88 (or; 47%) were able, 47 (or: 25%) were less able and 4 (or: 2%) were unable. This shows that all respondents have benefited from journalistic training which is useful for developing creative-productive critical thinking skills. In addition, there are two digital journalistic skills that they are good at, namely using a laptop/computer (17 answers or 63%) and publishing works via Instagram (15 answers or 56%). This happens because they have been familiar with various digital technology tools and used them well.
