Abstract

To enrich students writing aptitude, it is significant to identify the effective feedback process in the language classroom. While the teacher is presenting the appropriate feedback strategies, it is needed to find whether the students prefer what their teacher applied in order to solve their writing problems. The teacher carried out both written and oral (writing conference) in giving feedback, however, this study aims at comparing the teacher and students’ preferences on the teacher feedback practice qualitatively. The students’ writing assignment of 200 words was submitted before the conference schedule. Receiving the written feedback on their writing sheets, the students read and review their teacher feedback. Next, participating in this study, the students were required to contribute on the questionnaire about their preferences during the conference, while the teacher was interviewed. The results show that the students (58%) in the novice writing class preferred on the writing conference. There were 79% students in English writing program would rather work in personal with their teacher which means each of students work one-to-one. Meanwhile, the teacher preferred providing the written feedback, though she realized that the conference might work better on the novice level.

Abstract

Writing is not a spontaneous ability in language learning because it requires both editing and revising, and thus making this skill perceived as an easy task. Students could use a dictionary to help them use a foreign language on any occasion. Nonetheless, these activities may result in several errors in students' writing assignments. Relating to this situation, this study aims at identifying the students’ problems and their grammatical errors during the process of academic writing. In this study, mix-methods were applied in which vocational college students’ writings were documented and interview with the students was conducted. The data on students’ grammatical errors were collected, transcribed, analyzed, and interpreted. The findings show that the students’ errors laid on tense (38.0%), preposition (11.7%), article (11.4%), conjunction (11.4%), omission (8.9%), subject-verb agreement (6.3%) and adverb (2.5%). Meanwhile, based on the interview, to facilitate language competence, a translation tool such as Google translate was routinely used by most of the students (81.8%) during the writing completion. Although applying a translation tool in writing, the majority of the students (73%) thought it is a hard skill, and 18% of them believed that the writing process is the most difficult in language activities.

Abstract

During the achievement of the target language, interlanguage becomes a serious issue in second language acquisition (SLA). The influence of the student’s mother tongue both on vocabulary and structure plays an essential role, particularly in oral performance. This qualitative study aims to find out the interlanguage fossilization as well as the digital media used to overcome the interlanguage. In this study, 23 non-English department students participated by videotaping their speaking performance spontaneously for about two minutes. Each student submitted a video on the subject of “My Childhood” via google classroom at the end of the English program. Not only the documentation but also the interview is employed; five of the students took part in it. Additionally, the students’ strategies to be proficient in English were expressed. The findings indicated the syntactical errors in pronouns errors, articles, concords, and fragments and the morpheme errors in suffixes. Meanwhile, learning English videos integrated with technology such as YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram promotes the students’ strategies to boost their speaking skills.
