Abstract

The development of technology should be followed by all aspects of human life, including education. One of the possibilities of adapting technology development in education is by designing digital learning materials. The aim of this paper is to discuss the ways of using audiobooks as a better replacement material to be used in an EFL listening classroom. Many students face difficulties in listening, like problems in their listening comprehension, having a hard time pronouncing words, and make the connection between what they listen to and what they have already known because they are unable to accurately comprehend spoken materials. Audiobooks give a solution to these complications by presenting them with a native speaker illustration, giving students the proper pronunciation of words. Overall, audiobooks are suitable for enhancing students’ listening comprehension capability and diminishing the fossilized problems they have been carried for so long.

Abstract

In the past two decades, there has been a significant increase in classroom interaction research on language use in the classroom. However, studies investigating teachers’ classroom language for junior high school are hard to find. The present research aims to figure out (1) teachers’ classroom language occurs in the teaching and learning process, and (2) teachers’ reflection on their classroom language. The study employed qualitative descriptive research with the three teachers of SMPN 4 Muara Bungo as the participants. Observation and Stimulated Recall Interview (SIR) were used to conduct the data, and the data were analyzed by using Salaberri’s handbook of classroom language (1995). The result of this study showed that teachers spoke six types out of 8 types of classroom language suggested by Sallaberi, namely simple instruction, dealing with the language of spontaneous situation, the language of social interaction, pair group work, question types, and dealing with error. However, the average of teacher’s English classroom language use showed a low percentage, which was only 45,4%. It proved that teachers in this study did not provide comprehensible input to their students. Through a stimulated recall interview, the teachers admitted that they are still not optimal in providing input to the students. It was because of two reasons: (1) students’ proficiency and (2) teachers’ proficiency themselves.
