Abstract

Aside from their main responsibility as educators, English teachers certainly need to regularly sharpen the saw or keep improving their professionalism. These demand both understanding of theoretical foundation and practical applications of interconnected aspects of EFL teaching and learning. This paper reports a case of a teacher professional development program in reflective teaching, motivating and engaging learners, and ICT applications for language learning. These topics are chosen as they are considered essential for EFL teachers who strive for a process of building expertise. This two-day workshop elaborates experts as plenary speakers to share theoretical foundation of the three areas and teachers as parallel presenters to demonstrate good practice of their teaching experience. A quantitative assessment at the end of the training results in positive responses from the participants along with evaluations on how this model of teacher development program could be improved. As a post-workshop activity some teacher participants are assisted and facilitated to implement the material. Techniques of engaging reading and ICT use for language skill practice are chosen. Finally, six points of reflection from the committee and an external reviewer provide another assessment, evaluations, and recommendations for the program improvement.

Abstract

Teaching of writing has been an uphill task for teachers, as students find writing as the most difficult and boring task. Students are basically sitting quietly writing paragraphs after paragraphs on paper and hand it in at the end of the lesson. There is hardly any collaboration and cooperation among the students. Those who are weak in writing struggle to complete their work for there is barely any interaction or discussion among the peers.In the perspective of 21st century education, learning needs to be more interactive with teachers as facilitators, while students collaborate and cooperate in their writing task. Students are empowered to write creatively and effectively through collaboration and group discussion. This could be done via Google Documents, one of the apps which allows students to comment, edit, collaborate, share and view the revision history of learners work. Writing has taken a step further, as it is going paperless.This workshop introduces participants to 21st century teaching writing via Google Documents, which will help to enhance writing lessons.** Laptop and Internet connection are required.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyze how the female protagonist in Harpers novel entitled Iola Leroy, although a mulatto, embodies the spirit of black feminism. To carry out the analysis, feminist literary criticism is used as the frame of analysis linked with gynocriticism. Several concepts concerning black feminism including empowerment, solidarity and sisterhood are used to support the frame of analysis. The result shows that the female mulatto protagonist, who does not know that she has black blood, all of a sudden experiences real slavery. This harsh turning point on her previously comfortable life leads to her new insight about slavery, about her race, and about her personal existence as a woman. The last point results not only in the emergence of the spirit of black feminism but also in the application of this spirit to other blacks, especially the black women. The convergence of thought and action makes the female mulatto protagonist turns out from the victim of slavery into the agent of change for the black race.
