Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study deals with a strategy named GD (Group Discussion) model of cooperative learning strategy applied in the teaching of critical reading course at English Study Program at the UNIBRAW (Brawijaya University) in Malang City, East Java, Indonesia. By using that strategy, it is expected that the problem in Critical Reading class can be solved and students’ ability in critical reading will, in turn, be improved. The design of the study is CAR (Classroom Action Research), since the study is aimed at improving the students’ critical reading ability and solving the classroom’s problems on the teaching of reading. Based on its characteristics, the CAR is done repeatedly until those problems can be solved. Dealing with the classroom setting, the study is directed to develop the teaching strategy in order to find out a solution to the classroom’s problem in the teaching of reading. This study reveals that cooperative learning strategy has successfully improved students’ critical reading ability. In doing so, there are stages conducted, namely: having cooperative work organization, using appropriate media, having creativity (for teachers), monitoring teaching and learning processes closely, and giving students feedback on their work. In conclusion, cooperative learning can be beneficial for students’ learning in critical reading as it can make students active and enjoy the classroom activities. However, it also has weaknesses, such as time consuming and less appropriate for classes with bigger number of students. Despite the weaknesses, teachers are still recommended to apply this strategy in Critical Reading classes.KEY WORDS: Critical Reading; Students’ Ability; Cooperative Learning; Group Discussion; Classroom Action Research.  About the Authors: Emy Sudarwati and Yana Shanti Manipuspika are the Lecturers at the Study Program of English, Faculty of Humanities UNIBRAW (Brawijaya University) in Malang City, East Java, Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Effective education should offer a balance of theoretical and practical experiences to help learners develop the competencies they need to enter professional practice and to become life-long learners throughout their careers. Laboratory activities have long had a distinctive and central role in the chemistry curriculum; and chemistry educators have suggested that many benefits accrue from engaging students in chemistry laboratory activities. The general objective of the study is to assess the practical skills of chemistry students at the BHU (Bule Hora University) in Southern Ethiopia. BHU is the newly emerged university in Ethiopia. The university is try to apply student centered approach to bring problem of surface learning in to an end and introduce deep learning, which make students critical thinker or imaginative. As a result, the university teacher educators incorporate the practical session to make learner knowledgeable, skill full, and bring attitudinal change. The data of this research was collected through questioner, focus group discussion, interview, and observation. Several problems in chemistry practical activities were identified, such as lack of confidence; shortage of time; and lack of background practical exposure, particularly on chemistry lab, lack of laboratory equipment and chemicals, lack of interest, fear of chemical toxicity, and lack of experimental freedom for independent work. In general, from the tremendous benefit of practical activities in chemistry, the authors suggested that, for example, using simulation and virtual experiments; and encouraging students to show their innate talents and make students familiar with the basic educational tool/technology.KEY WORDS: Effective Education; Chemistry Practical Activity; Students and Teachers; Lack of Confidence; Using Simulation.    About the Authors: Shemsu Ligani is a Lecturer at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Natural and Computational Sciences BHU (Bule Hora University), Bule Hora, Ethiopia.
