Abstract

The urgency in revealing multimodal gender representation in education is the background of this study. Two English textbooks for Senior High School students entitled “Talk Active” and “Pathway to English” were used as the subjects of the study. The objectives of the study are to explain multimodal representation of gender through its typical roles, conversational roles, and semantic representation found in the aforementioned English textbooks. In gathering the data, Brugeilles and Cromer’s (2009) gender representation analysis was adapted as instruments to gain the data for gender typical roles, Francis and Hunston’s (2002) analysis was employed to get the data for gender conversational roles, and lastly, Mills’ (1995) feminism language was used to collect the data for gender semantic representation. The findings revealed that in both textbooks males have typical roles as breadwinners in dometic sphere and leaders in social and occupational spheres, whereas females have nurturing roles in domestic phere, followers roles in social sphere and subordinates in occupational spheres. With regard to gender conversational roles, the findings shown that in “Talk Active” males are the dominant speakers and females are the deferential speakers, while in “Pathway to English”, the opposite happened. Lastly, the finding of gender semantic representation analysis told that both textbooks represent both gender equally, although some sexist ‘man’ affixes were found.

Abstract

Classroom interaction has been an interesting discussion in the research of discourse as well as language education itself. This research was aimed to analyze the implementation of initiation-response-feedback (IRF) model in EFL writing class. IRF is a pattern of classroom interaction found by Sinclair and Coulthard in 1975 that stands for teacher initiation, students’ response and feedback by teacher. This study was a case study with several steps conducted by its researcher in analyzing the data. The analysis of the data began with the process of organizing data from the result of recording, transcribing data into paper-based transcriptions, coding the data, calculating the occurences of the teaching exchange pattern and IRF pattern, reporting the findings, and interpreting the findings. The results of the study showed that both teacher and students implemented the IRF model in teaching and learning process, especially in writing class. In this study there are five teaching exchanges which occurred based on Sinclair and Coulthard (1975)’s model including teacher inform, teacher direct, teacher elicit, student inform, and check. Furthermore, the classroom interaction process in EFL writing class reflected the patterns of IRF sequence. As the conclusion, it is recommended that the teacher should maintain the effectiveness of classroom interaction and give much opportunity to the students to take role in classroom verbal interaction through reflecting the IRF pattern in teaching learning process particularly in EFL writing class.
