Abstract

Oral communication in front of an audience is known as public speaking, a combination of speaking skills and the art of speaking. Speaking in front of an audience involves more than just getting your point out; it also involves considering how well it will be received and accepted into the hearts of the audience. Learning public speaking has its own challenges. The purpose of this study is to identify the challenges faced by students in learning public speaking. It is a descriptive qualitative study with 13 participants from an English Language Education Study Program in Surabaya. Purposive sampling was used to obtain the participants. Two instruments are needed to collect data in this study: a questionnaire and an interview. The results of the study show that the challenges faced by students, in general, include two things, namely internal and external challenges. Internal challenges include psychological conditions, language competence (vocabulary mastery, fluency, and pronunciation), and topical knowledge, while external challenges are performance conditions and learning environment. Keyword: public speaking, challenges

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the speech acts used by three English teachers of SMPIT Nurul Ikhwan Nagan Raya, SMA Tunas Luhur, and SMKN 2 Payakumbuh during online teaching and learning process. This research was descriptive-qualitative. The data were the subjects’ utterances obtained by observations on six online learning videos from YouTube. It was transcribed into the written form, selected to fit the study’s objective, recorded into the datasheets, interpreted, and analyzed using speech acts theory. The practice of triangulation was used by asking the expert to check data validity. The result showed that declarative locutionary act was mainly used in representatives to utter some explanations of the materials. Directive and representative illocutionary acts were dominantly used. Questioning act of directive used mostly to allow the students to be active and check their comprehension. Explaining and informing of representative were used frequently to transfer the materials and tell certain facts to the students. Perlocutionary act student(s): learn something and do something were primarily occurred. Student(s): learn something mainly occurred when performed explaining and informing of representative resulted to students knew/understood the given explanations and information. Perlocutionary act student(s): do something mainly occurred when questioning and commanding of directive resulted in students giving the answers and doing as commanded. The subjects’ ways in expressing speech acts were quite different since having different background and culture. They used Bahasa Indonesia than English in performing speech acts. It is suggested that the teachers should use English more than Bahasa Indonesia when teaching English.

Abstract

Language teaching materials play a significant role in language learning as it provides input for learners. The language input should contain all of the aspects of communicative competence, one of which is pragmatic competence. This is because pragmatics deals with language use in context. Learning a language is not merely about learning how to make grammatically correct sentences, but it is also about how to use the sentence appropriately. Thus, learners should be exposed to pragmatics to be able to use the language they learn in context. For this reason, this study aims to design a pragmatic formula for English language teaching materials (textbooks) development as previous studies on pragmatics on English language textbooks reported that many of them, particularly the local ones contain insufficient pragmatic knowledge. The present research employed a qualitative approach by referring to the earlier studies on pragmatics in language textbooks. Findings indicated that it was not an easy assignment to design pragmatic formula as it required a lot of observation of teaching materials and pragmatic judgment by a native speaker of American English. Keywords: pragmatics, language coursebooks, materials development

Abstract

The pandemic is not over yet; Therefore, teaching and learning English with an online platform is still preferable. Like any other medium of instruction, an online platform has its challenges and problems, particularly in teaching English to lower-level adult learners. Shumin (1997) has mentioned several factors influencing the development of adult learners’ speaking abilities. They are age, sociocultural factors, emotions, self-esteem, empathy, anxiety, attitude, and motivation. In relation to online learning, Altakhaineh, Alhendi, Dweikat (2021) state that the problems faced by students and educators are similar. They are time management, teaching methods, lack of encouragement and motivation, and lack of knowledge regarding online teaching tools. This research, therefore, aims to investigate the specific challenges and problems of teaching English to lower-level students through Zoom in the Indonesian context. This research is unique because the class is participated by people from three areas in Indonesia. Since they come from different areas, the facilities and access that they have and can make use of will vary. The research will start with a pre-test. Then, the teaching/research will start from late October 2022 to early February 2023. The result of this research is to identify the specific challenges and problems of online teaching English to low-level adult learners and the method/s used/can be used to overcome them. Keywords: Challenge, Problems, Online teaching and learning, low-level, adult learners

Abstract

The problems of this research are focused on whether the character values are found in the English textbook or not and how they are reflected. This research analyzes all chapters in the English textbook entitled Pathway to English for SMA/MA Grade X, specifically the reading texts. The approach of this research is qualitative research. In collecting the data, two types of instruments are used which are the researcher herself and the data sheet. The result of this research showed that there are 18 character values reflected in this textbook covering all of them. Appreciation was represented 16 times in the reading texts, being the highest value of all. To reflect appreciation value in teaching and learning process, one of the ways that teachers can do to integrate it is they can motivate the students to produce something useful for themselves as well as society or give rewards to the students who do their jobs well. It can be concluded that this English textbook is ideal as a teaching material for developing character values of students because it contains all 18 character values that the 2013 Curriculum suggests should be included in the textbook. Knowing that the Ministry of Education and Culture requires English textbook for Senior High School to include at least eight values, this book shows that an ideal English textbook exists.
