Abstract

The objective of this study is to assess the proficiency of students' critical thinking skills in composing analytical exposition texts, as well as to examine their perceptions regarding the development of critical thinking skills in this particular writing genre. The research employed a descriptive qualitative methodology, utilizing data gathering instruments such as observations and interviews. A study was undertaken at SMA Negeri 4 Gowa Regency during the academic year of 2021/2022. The participants in this study consisted of 30 students enrolled in the class XI MIA 3 during the second semester. However, for the purpose of data collection, the researchers selected a subset of 15 students by purposive sampling for interviews. The findings of this study suggest that students frequently commit errors when it comes to utilizing generic structures and language elements in their written analytic exposition texts. Based on the identified faults, the researcher saw that a majority of the students exhibited deficiencies in adhering to the prescribed guidelines of the analytical exposition text. Furthermore, it was noted that critical thinking skills were not adequately incorporated in the writing sessions conducted within this particular class. The observed phenomenon can be attributed to the insufficient comprehension and instruction provided to students within the educational setting, hindering the development of critical skills. Additionally, the absence of thought-provoking inquiries posed by educators may impede students' progress in enhancing their critical thinking abilities. Based on the analysis and observations conducted, the researcher has reached the conclusion that the students of class XI MIA 3 at SMA Negeri 4 Kabupaten Gowa demonstrate a moderate degree of critical thinking skills, as assessed by the critical thinking characteristics outlined by Facione (Facione, 2013).

Abstract

Studies on the integration of moral, cultural, and religious values in the non-religion subject have been greatly raised in these recent years. This research aims to find out the teachers’ strategy and challenges encountered in integrating Islamic values in English language teaching. The descriptive method with a qualitative approach is employed in this research. The subject of this research consists of three English teachers who teach in different grades from seventh to ninth at SMP Pesantren Modern IMMIM Putra Makassar. The data of this research are obtained from the observation sheet and interview guide. The data analysis technique in this research uses three steps, namely identification, classification, and explanation. The result of this research shows that there are four strategies employed by English teachers in integrating Islamic values in ELT. First, the teachers give direct advice to the students. Second, the teachers associate the lesson topic with pertinent Islamic teaching by quoting verses from the Qur’an and/or Hadith. Third, the teachers get the students used to worship through the habituation of religious activities. Fourth, the teachers refer to someone, or themselves to introduce some Islamic values to the students. The teachers also encounter several challenges in integrating Islamic values in ELT. First, the limited availability of English textbooks integrated to Islamic values. Second, the teachers have limited knowledge of how to optimally integrate Islamic values into the teaching and learning process. Third, the teachers have a limited time to provide and prepare the English learning materials associated to Islamic values. Further studies such as research and development of English textbooks that integrated to Islamic values for high school students are expected to be conducted in an attempt to solve the teachers’ challenges revealed in this research.
