Abstract

Many of senior high school students face some problem in learning reading, for instance having difficulty in understanding the ideas of the text, limited vocabulary and the lack of motivation. The problems are caused by the lack of teaching reading strategy where the students are asked to do the same activity from limited learning materials in every meeting.  Thus, the writer chose Tiered Activity as a good strategy to be applied in the classroom. Tiered activity helps the students to be more motivated to comprehend the text by reading the text based on their reading ability levels, interest, and learning styles. There are three steps in tiered activity. First, readiness tier, the students are grouped based on their reading ability levels. Second, interest tier, the students will be grouped based on the text they are interested in. Third, learning style tier, the students will choose the text based on their learning style and perform the conclusion in front of the class. At the end of the lesson, the teacher and the students conclude the lesson together. Tiered activity is expected to increase the students reading ability and motivation in learning reading.

Abstract

This research is conducted based on the phenomenon of an interaction of learning English based on curriculum 2013. This study aims to find and analyze the pattern of IRF interaction used by students and teachers in SMA Negeri 2 Padang Panjang. The types of questions teacher use, types of student responses to teacher questions, and the types of teacher feedback in responding to a student. Theories about the types of question used by a teacher in the classroom, theories about the types of student responses in the classroom and theories about the various feedbacks that teachers use in the classroom are used as the basis for answering those three questions. The results of the analysis show that, 1) there are five types of questions that teachers often use to ask students questions: referential question, display question, convergent question, and divergent question, 2) there are four types of responses used by students: open-ended or student-initiated, specific response, silence, and similar student responses, 3) there are five types of teacher feedback: repeating, acknowledging a correct answer, indicating an incorrect answer and summarizing. The type of this research is descriptive qualitative. Data is collected in two classes with two teachers and each class has 36 students. Based on IRF analysis it can be concluded that between teacher initiation and student response dominate each other but the response of students with the frequency of student initiation is still very low. The reason for this is because the teacher initiates a lot by asking students, the students automatically passive and only a few express their ideas. So that the goal of the learning process based on the 2013 curriculum is not achieved optimally.Key words: Classroom discourse, interaction, IRF, curriculum 2013.
