Abstract

A lesson plan is an important component that the teacher must prepare before carrying out learning activities. This study aims to develop lesson plans, especially tutoring for informal institutions. This research is an R&D research. The limitation of this research is that it is only carried out at the ADD stage (Analysis, Design, and Development). At the analysis stage, the teacher did not yet have a lesson plan, so the implementation of learning was not directed and only helped students in doing homework they got from school. At the design stage, the lesson plan components followed Brown’s (2001) theory which consisted of goals, objectives, materials and equipment, procedures, evaluations, extra-class work (if students needed them, to learn more at home). The development stage determined the appropriate method to be used in the learning process. At this stage, the lesson plans were validated by experts in the field of education to measure product quality.

Abstract

This study analyzed students’ final test in English for General subject, including the students’ overall scores, understanding the essay instruction, and grammar mistakes found in their essay. This research was conducted using a qualitativedescriptive method. The researchers employed document analysis to find related information from the research objectives naturally. The instrument used for the data collection was the students’ answer sheets from the final test, and a summative test was employed as the approach. There were fifty students of non- English Department Study Programs as the participants. The scores achieved conclude that the mean score achieved by the students is in the lowest category. It implies that they still need to improve their writing, such as sentence arrangement, grammar, and vocabulary selection. Furthermore, most students were mistaken in understanding the essay instruction and resulted in incorrect essays.

Abstract

Students’ collaboration is essential for the construction of effective,deep, and reflective learning. In the context of computer-mediated learning, students’ collaboration was facilitated by discussion forum. While discussion forum is used among distanced learners, there is still lack of knowledge on what really happens when students participate in the discussion forum. This study shed lights on students’ engagement in three discussion forums of two language skill courses (Speaking 1 and Writing 1) conducted asynchronously. The engagement was measured from (i) students’ posts or comments to see how much students’ participation in the forum, (ii) engagement patterns they formed, and (iii) how such collaboration reflected the phases of practical inquiry in online-mediated learning. Results showed that during online asynchronous seminars, students’ participation was minimal, and teachers’ posts were prevalent, with posts confirming students’ answers. This type of interaction, in turns, resulting in a one-way serial monologue – students did not response to each other posts. Analysis on practical inquiry model also confirmed the findings that students’ engagements were in the level of triggering event by which students only responded to the teacher’s thread and did not respond to each other posts. Students’ exchange of information was not negotiated, thus not allowing students to move forwards to integration and resolution phases. The findings were linked with the tasks set out by the teachers in both courses.
