Abstract

One of the most important aspects that must be included in ELT textbooks is culture. This research aims at exploring types of cultural contents and cultural elements. The subject of this research was English Textbook for grade XII entitled “Bahasa Inggris”. This research belongs to content analysis. Document observation was used to collect the data which were analyzed by using Miles & Huberman’s model and coding method. The research findings show that there were three types of culture found in this textbook, namely the source culture (66 times or 58%), target culture (34 times or 30%), and, international culture (14 times or 12%). Concerning the cultural elements, they were represented by product (39 times or 80%), person (9 times or 18%), and practice (1 times or 2%). Meanwhile, perspective was not represented. It implies that the textbook still focused on source cultures which were more easily internalized by the learners and on products which were the most concrete for learners to learn the culture. It is recommended that the authors of the textbook balance the cultural contents proportionally and the teachers creatively insert more target and international cultures to avoid cultural shocks.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the significant influence of giving feedback on improving the descriptive writing ability of grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 1 Hu'u, Dompu, Indonesia. This study used a quantitative method with an experimental design of 20 students who were divided into experimental and control groups. In this study, the results of the pre-test showed that 65% of students obtained scores below 70. After providing feedback, the percentage of students who scored above 70 increased to 85%. To calculate the student score data, the researchers used a paired sample t-test that showed a significant improvement (p = 0.001) with a correlation value of 0.662. An analysis of the effect size yielded a Cohen value d = -1.602, indicating a large effect of the intervention. In addition, questionnaire data showed that more than 80% of students responded positively to feedback, and observations showed an improvement in students' understanding of the structure and language features of descriptive texts.
