Abstract

Students of English Department should know how to learn and practice using English. They should understand ways to help them improve their English skills. Among those four English skills namely speaking, listening, reading and writing, the most difficult one to master is writing. This study will not focus on writing but on speaking skill. The subject of the study is FBIB Students who took the subject called Business Transactional Conversation.The students sometimes have difficulty to improve their speaking skill because they are rarely use English in their daily talk with their peers. They use English when they have lecture and talk with their lecturers. The reason why they are rarely use English when they talk with their peers because they are afraid of making mistakes and being laughed by their peers. It will influence their motivation to speak English.The students’ motivation to learn and then master English is a positive trigger to monitor their English skill. A good idea of having peer review in spoken class is a way to help students improve their speaking skill. The result is satisfactory enough because they are more comfort to be evaluated by their own peer than by the lecturer. This peer review is one of some alternatives to help English learners improving their English skill.This study belongs to classroom reasearch since the lecturers who are also the researchers conducted research for one semester for the fourth semester students who belong to morning program. The number of students who are being observed is 14 students. The researchers collected the data with the help of a student from the observed class.

This subject is aimed at improving students’ speaking skill especially in creating conversation using different speech events.            Students belong to English Department should know how to use the right speech functions in their talks but due to their low level of speaking mastery therefore they have difficulty in using English properly. This study is conducted in order to help the new students to improve their English speaking skill so that they will be motivated in talking using English in their speaking class.            Students as peer for their own classmates sometimes are not reluctant in giving comments though they realize that their peers need it. The teachers involve the students in giving their comments with the purpose to give positive feedback for their peers so that their English speaking skill will improve. Their comments are known as learners’ comments because they are English learners who take English class.The lecturers have the roles as the researchers therefore this study is called classroom reasearch.

Abstract

English children story book is written aimed at boosting their English reader’ proficiency as well as their performance in reading. This study is conducted to analyze the conversational implicature recognized in children story book. The object of the study is the story entitled Rumpelstiltskin published by Indian publisher. This study is conducted aimed at finding kinds of conversational implicature recognized in the Young Learner’s story book. Children story book written in English is published to help them learn English. English in Indonesia is as the first foreign language learnt while other countries within Asian continent have English as their second language. TEFL in Indonesia needs more time to make Indonesian students accustomed to use English in their daily conversation. Book is written in many genres and one of it is narrative. Narrative text type is commonly found in the story therefore the author used their imagination in order to help the readers build their own imagination. Building imagination is part of the activity to help children to be creative. The children are still on their growing period therefore they need many stimulus to help them gain more information stored in their brain. India is one of Asian’s country which English as their second language therefore Indian people speak English better than Indonesian. Though Indian as a country is similar to Indonesia in terms of population but they are more productive in using English. Indonesian people should learn from Indian people in using English since English language is used formally at public places including school. Indian authors are also more productive in writing and one of the writing that I analyze in this study is the children’s story belongs to Young Learner’s series. I chose Indian book because I believe that children’s reader will learn and understand English language easily. Keywords: reading, English story book, conversational implicature

Abstract

Psychology is the science that studies human behavior which is applied in analyzing human personality. This journal examines the application of the psychological theories of Sigmund Freud (Id, Ego, and Superego) and Abraham Maslow (physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging needs, self-esteem, and self-actualization) in analyzing Ellie Chu the main character of the film "The Half of It". The author uses the descriptive qualitative research method to explain Ellie Chu's character. The author obtained data from watching the film "The Half of It" which was released by Netflix in 2020 and reading the script for the film "The Half of it". Directed by Alice Wu, this film follows the journey of Ellie Chu, a talented young writer who gets entangled in a journey of finding a complex identity in her small town. This analysis aims to show how the application of Freud's and Maslow's theories provides insight into Ellie's character development and motivation throughout the film. By exploring her subconscious desires and the fulfillment of her needs, we gain a deeper understanding of her actions, decisions, and emotional journey. Understanding the psychological underpinnings of Ellie's character increases our appreciation of the film's themes of identity, love, and self-discovery. It is hoped that from this analysis the readers can also be inspired by the story of Ellie Chu who can take responsibility for truth, honesty, and sacrifice.

Abstract

Poetry is a unique way to express someone's feelings. Sometimes the poetry is the author's experience. Emily Dickinson was an American poet woman who wrote a lot of religious poetry. In this study, the researchers try to analyze her expression in I Prayed at First a Little Girl. The aims of this study are to know the psychological side of Emily Dickinson toward Puritanism in her poetry I Prayed at First a Little Girl, to know the influence of the social condition of the society toward Emily Dickinson's poetry, and to know the meaning of Emily Dickinson's poetry mentioned above. The method of collecting data which the researchers used is the library research method, in which various sources are collected and also used to support the discussion. In approaching the poetry, the researchers use the objective or the structural approach method and psychological approach method to get deeper understanding of the author's characteristics. After analyzing the poetry, the researchers concluded that the poetry was the expression of Emily Dickinson disappointment toward Puritanism teachings. Emily was disappointed with her father and the priests in her church who asked her to obey all their rules since she was a child without giving any chance to ask about them.
