This research applied descriptive qualitative method. In collecting the data, the writer used documentary method to gather 11 personal statements from prospective master students. The data were analyzed based on politeness theory proposed by Brown and Levinson (1987). The results showed that all eleven successful personal statements contained both face threatening acts and politeness strategies. The total face threatening acts found were 147 including the acts that threatened both the positive and negative face. Among all FTAs, boasting became the highest occurrence. From four strategies in doing FTAs, only positive politeness and negative politeness were used. The highest occurrence of positive politeness was being optimistic, and using hedge for negative politeness strategy. Power, distance, rank of imposition, type of FTA and gender became the factors that influenced the choice of politeness strategies.

Similarly, female domination was also found in the dialogues as seen from gender visibility and gender specific noun, while male domination was seen from gender stereotype. However, male domination was found in the pictures as seen from gender visibility and gender stereotype. Hence, both the reading texts and the dialogues showed female domination as seen from gender visibility, gender neutral, and gender specific noun. They also presented gender stereotype showing male domination. On the other hand, the pictures showed male domination. In conclusion, the textbook was dominated by female representation in term of the reading texts and the dialogues, and by male representation in term of the pictures.

Abstract

The research aimed to analyze the realization of thematic structure and progression in English and Indonesian exposition texts and explain the contribution of thematic structure and progression to the cohesion and coherence in English and Indonesian exposition texts. The research also aimed toexplain the differences and similarities between English and Indonesian in terms of coherence and schematic structure of the exposition text. Descriptive-qualitative design was used in this research considering of the objectives of the research. The sample of the research was taken from collecting English and Indonesian exposition texts written by undergraduate students of UPI. This study used the theory of Theme system developed by Halliday (1994), Eggins (1994; 2004), the theory of thematic progression proposed by Eggins (1994; 2004 as the framework to analyze the data) and the theory of coherence analysis proposed by Thornbury (2005). To figure out the differences and similarities between English and Indonesian exposition texts, it can be seen from the level of coherence (level of clause, sentence, and paragraph) and schematic structure of text. In level of clause, it can be seen from thematic structure and progression analysis. The result showed that the students write effectively orient the reader to what their texts are about either in English or Indonesian texts. Students used reiteration as much as zigzag pattern in their English in order to maintain the focus and reinforced the arguments in their texts but in Indonesian texts, students more reinforced the argument than maintain the focus to the arguments in their Indonesian texts. In level of sentence, the finding showed that English texts tended to use deductive style rather than inductive and mix style. While in Indonesian text, the use of inductive and mix types of paragraphs in Indonesian texts were more than in English texts. In level of paragraph, multiple paragraphs were dominant in students’ English texts but some Indonesian texts were managed unwell. Concerning in term of schematic structure, most of English texts consisted of the three generic structures of exposition texts but there were some Indonesian texts that was not given the reiteration or conclusion at the last paragraph.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of using Coop-Dis-Q (Cooperative-Discussion-Questioning) and Literature Circle strategies in teaching reading comprehension to extrovert and introvert students. 2x2 factorial design of experimental research was carried out to collect the data from 88 eighth grade students of SMP N 1 Kandeman, Batang. Two experimental groups, A and B, were given two different treatments: Coop-Dis-Q and Literature Circle strategies. The result shows that the ρ = 0.00 for both Coop-Dis-Q and Literature Circle strategies in teaching reading comprehension to extrovert and introvert students which verifies the effectiveness of both two strategies. It wa also found that Coop-Dis-Q is more effective than Literature Circle strategy in teaching reading comprehension since the mean value of post test Coop-Dis-Q shows higher score 27.18 and the value of ρ = 0.00. However, the result also shows that there is no difference between extrovert and introvert personalities in teaching reading comprehension since the value of ρ = 0.310. Further, it was found that the ρ of strategy*type value is 0.638 so there is no interaction between teaching reading comprehension strategies and types of personality on the achievement of reading comprehension which proves that personality does not influence students’ reading comprehension achievement.

Abstract

This study aims at developing multiple-intelligences (MI)-based materials for teaching English in elementary school. It applies the research and development method. In the exploration stage, a needs analysis and a document analysis were carried out. Thirty public elementary school teachers in Semarang filled out a questionnaire. The document analysis was meant to find out to what extent the English learning materials used by most of the teachers addressed the MI theory. In the development stage, the prototype of the model was developed, evaluated by experts and tried-out in one school. In the last stage, a pre-experimental study was carried out in three schools. The results indicated that learning materials which have variations of tasks were needed. The analysis of the learning materials showed that some intelligence types were very rarely represented. As for the prototype of the model, some revisions were required. The result of the t-test indicated that the model was effective for improving the students’ English mastery. This study suggests that the model of MI-based materials developed is appropriate for teaching English to elementary school students.
