Abstract

As foreign language/second language (EFL/ESL) learners, vocabulary mastery is one of the important aspects of English. The centre of language teaching and important for language learners are aspects of vocabulary. Several studies have shown that teaching vocabulary can be considered a problem because some teachers are unsure about best practices in teaching and are not really aware of ways to initiate instructional vocabulary learning (Berne & Blachowicz, 2008). This article presents four aspects the EFL/ESL teacher might take into account when teaching vocabulary, namely: focus on frequent words, strategies for dealing with unknown words, lexical approach in teaching vocabulary, and semantic fields in vocabulary teaching.

Abstract

English Education Study Program is one of the study programs within the English Department of UNM. As one of the lecturers who taught Writing IV subject for the Semester IV students of English Department of UNM, I found that many students still have lack ability to write reference style correctly and precisely. In order to overcome this problem, it was needed a training for these students in improving their knowledge and skills in the area by using referencing software. The purpose of the training was to improve the students’ ability in making online library by using reference software called EndNote Program and be able to apply in writing references or bibliography in academic writing. The training was conducted for four weeks during May-June 2019. The methods used in this training were presentation and simulation. The assessments were conducted after the training using observation sheets. The results of the test indicated that the majority of the participants improved their ability in making online library and could use EndNote Program in writing their references.  Considering the benefits of the program and the high motivation of the participants, it is recommended that similar training should be carried out to other students in this study program.

Abstract

Progam Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris Kelas Parepare adalah satu dari tiga program studi yang ada di Jurusan Bahasa Inggris UNM. Sebagai salah seorang dosen pengampu mata kuliah Writing bagi mahasiswa Bahasa Inggris Universitas Negeri Makassar selama beberapa tahun terakhir, saya melihat bahwa salah satu kemampuan yang harus dimiliki oleh mahasiswa agar dapat menulis artikel ilmiah dengan baik adalah kemampuan menulis bibliografi yang benar dan akurat.  Beberapa tehnik penulisan bibliografi  sebenarnya telah diajarkan kepada mereka  secara manual di perkuliahan mata kuliah Writing. Akan tetapi karena menggunakan panduan secara manual, kebanyakan dari mereka mengalami kesulitan dan tidak bisa konsisten dalam penulisannya sehingga memerlukan pelatihan dengan menggunakan software untuk dapat meningkatkan kemampuan menulis bibliografi secara benar dan akurat. Pelatihan ini bertujuan untuk memperkenalkan dan melatih mahasiswa untuk membuat perpustakaan online dan menerapkan dalam menulis referensi dan bibliografi dalam tulisan ilmiah menggunakan software EndNote yang sudah telah diakui secara internasional dan telah digunakan di negara-negara maju. Metode yang digunakan adalah diskusi dan simulasi. Kegiatan ini telah dilaksanakan selama 4 minggu pada bulan September dan Oktoiber 2020.  Setelah dan selama kegiatan berlangsung telah diadakan penilaian. Penilaian keberhasilan mereka tersebut diukur melalui observation sheet dan angket. Hasil observasi menunjukkan setelah peserta mengikuti kegiatan pelatihan, hampir semua peserta menunjukkan kemampuan menggunakan EndNote Program. Kegiatan serupa masih perlu diadakan bagi mahasiswa yang lain mengingat motivasi dan minat peserta terhadap pelatihan in sangat besar.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of CBLT in ESP courses within Indonesian higher education. It identifies categories of assessment within that implementation through a variety of classroom activities. The study looks at learning outcomes in which CBLT makes an impact on ESP learning, at types of teaching preparation, at teaching materials, and at various teaching methods employed in CBLT implementation. This research applies a case study research design, focused on Indonesian higher education, specifically Bosowa University, Makassar. Seven lecturers and ten students from the university’s non-English department were selected as participants in the study. They were selected purposively, as they had implemented CBLT in ESP courses in their classes. The instruments of data collection were documentation, observation, and interview. The findings of the study show that by implementing CBLT, the lecturers believed that they could teach the ESP courses more effectively. In addition, lecturers were able to manage and organise content material in their ESP teaching. Students enhanced their knowledge of specific English, as well as their communicative competence in real life, elevating the vocabulary pertaining to their disciplines. Finally, students believe that CBLT offers many opportunities for meaningful and purposeful language use. Detailed findings are presented here, and their implications discussed.

Abstract

This research focuses on analyzing the various roles of repetition that appear in female EFL teachers’ spoken discourse. The subjects were two English teachers who teach Senior High Schools in Gowa Regency. They were taken by using deliberate or purposive sampling. The details were, each teacher was from SMA INSAN CENDEKIA SYECH YUSUF GOWA. The research instruments were interview, video recording, and documentations. Based on data analysis, it gathered several results; first, there were five roles of repetition which frequently appeared in the teachers spoken discourse namely, repetition as participatory listenership, ratifying listenership, expanding, evaluation through patterned rhythm, and humor (Tannen, 2007), from which expanding was the most dominant. Second, the female EFL teachers decide to employ or implement various roles of repetition in their oral communication through three phases, namely identification, determination, and evaluation (Simon, 1977). Having those findings, it is highly supported that by doing repetition properly in the teaching and learning process particularly in English encourages the teachers to maintain more vivid circumstances in their teaching particularly to maintain the students’ focus and the clarity of explanation
