Abstract

Writing requires a complex skill, and thus students need to regulate themselves in employing the appropriate strategies to achieve good writing performance. The present research investigated Self-Regulated Writing (SRW) strategies used by EFL (English as a Foreign Language) university students. It contrasted the students' strategies related to the complex structure of the texts (i.e., paragraphs and essays) and students writing performance. The data information came from two separate sets of self-regulated learning strategy questionnaire, as well as writing outcomes of the students. Descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney U test were utilized to evaluate the data. The six dimensions of SRW strategies were extensively utilized in paragraph and essay writings. The six dimensions include motive, method, time, performance, physical environment, and social environment. Interestingly, the social environment dimension had the highest mean score, showing that the students needed assistance from their peers and available learning resources. Meanwhile, the motive dimension obtained the lowest mean in both paragraph and essay writings. Furthermore, the analysis showed no significant statistical difference in using SRW strategies in writing paragraphs and essays except in the method dimension. The difference in strategy use based on achievement was also not significant. The results indicate that the students applied similar SRW strategies in paragraph and essay writings regardless of their proficiency levels. Pedagogical implications and recommendations for future research are also further discussed in the article.

Abstract

This research primarily deals with grammatical error analysis. It describes the grammatical errors in speaking skills made by the eighth-grade students. The data of the study are the conversation of the students that are defined into ten groups. The grammatical errors are classified based on Comparative Taxonomy. They are; developmental errors, interlingual errors, ambiguous errors, and other errors. Besides classifying the errors, the research also discovers the sources of errors. A qualitative approach was employed to gather the data in this study. The result of this study shows that the students committed errors in every type of Comparative Taxonomy. The most error that students made was interlingual errors. It can be inferred that the student's mother tongue interfered with them in speaking English. Based on the observation and interview, the possible causes of students' grammatical errors were interlingual transfer, intralingual transfer, the context of learning, and communication strategy.

Abstract

Socrative as one of educational technologies provides the students an ease to learn language through reading activities. They can practice reading on screen as the students in global era have commonly familiarized with. However, the teacher can apply certain reading strategies for students’ understandings on materials when trying to integrate technology for reading. Thus, this research proposes to investigate the effectiveness of Socrative and Moodle in reading classrooms that employ Kow-Want to Know-Learned (KWL) strategy. By using causal comparative study, seventy students of English Department at one of Islamic state universities in East Java Indonesia who are in the third semester are divided into intervention and control groups. The previous group is directed to read by using Moodle and do quiz with Socrative, while the latter read and do the quiz in Moodle. Here, KWL strategy is integrated with both technologies. The results of study exemplify that there is no significance difference between the students in the intervention and the control group. However, the mean scores of posttest on the intervention group increased better than the control group.
