Abstract

Theoretical linguistics and teaching are concurrent, that is, neither can exist without the other. In other words, decisions made in (foreign) language teaching will inevitably affect how language testing and evaluation as a concept is designed and administered. For example, if a curriculum states that the English as a foreign language teachers need to make a distinction between a gerund and an infinitive in the classroom and teach it as such, then, this distinction will be tested or evaluated in one way or another. In this article, language testing and evaluation (LTE), an important component in language teaching, is combined with construction grammar (henceforth CxG), a salient theory of language with ample evidence to support its claims. Specifically, this article discusses how construct validity, test items, and rubrics can be reimagined from the perspective of usage-based construction grammar.

Abstract

Learning a foreign language is not easy and requires a lot of effort. A teacher must be able to give maximum effort in teaching in the classroom and one way is by using ICT.

The design of this research is classroom action research (CAR) with the subject of the research was 35 students of class X MIPA 6 at senior high school in Tualang. This research was conducted in one cycle consisting of 5 online class meetings that used movie clips with different genres. From the results of research using observation sheets and interviews with students, it can be seen that students feel more enjoy, enthusiastic, curious in English class so that it affects their activity and participation in class, as most people, basically, like to watch movies. The aim of the interview is to explore students' opinions about what factors are their challenges in online learning. Most students say that they have problems with limited internet quota, unstable internet network, inadequate economy, and even boredom with assignments and deadlines during online learning. In this case the teacher must be able to find alternative solutions for online classes to make students not bored and enjoy the learning environment created by the teacher.

The research employed descriptive research design with mixed approach to data gathering and analysis. While qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis the quantitative data were analyzed using a descriptive SPSS analysis. The subjects of the study were both 1st year 5 male and 15 female and 2nd year 5 male and 8 female totally 33 undergraduate English as a foreign language students and their 2 writing skills instructors. This was because 1st year undergraduate English as foreign language students take the writing course i.e. Basic Writing Skills and 2nd year undergraduate English as foreign language students take the writing course i.e. Advanced Writing Skills and they were selected by using comprehensive sampling technique. The researchers used classroom observation, questionnaires and semi-structured interview as instruments to collect relevant data. The results of the analysis showed that, instructors did not always focus on the process approach while they deliver the writing lessons and activities; instead they mainly use the product approach in conducting the lessons. There were also factors like, lack of additional material sources, the correction limitation of students’ written works and students’ inability to express themselves’ in the target language that hindered the implementation of the process approach of teaching writing skills.

Abstract

Today many people are interested in implementing the concept of virtual classes, such as using Zoom Cloud Meetings for learning. Therefore, the authors are interested in discussing the difficulties of students in understanding learning activities using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes. The purposes include describing the kind of learning activities using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes and determining the students’ difficulties using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes. This study uses qualitative methods. The data collection techniques are interviewing ten respondents from the fifth-semester English Education Department of an Islamic University in Central Java, and the documentation. The results of this study indicate that learning by using zoom helps students and teachers meet virtually face-to-face. Zoom has various features that support the learning process, such as screen sharing, raising hand icons, chat comments, screen recording, and many other potential features. However, many students say that although Zoom has complete features, this application also has several shortcomings that become obstacles for students in understanding the concept of learning. These include limited-time usage and lag applications if the network or quota is insufficient. This study implied that Zoom Cloud Meeting makes the learning material not conveyed well; thus, the students' understanding becomes incomplete or partial.

Abstract

The ability to communicate verbally is considered to be one of the important factors for basic language skills. This competency plays a significant role in oral communication. The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not the use of a model called Problem-Based Learning (PBL) might help students enhance their speaking ability. PBL is one of the learning models that can be used in language classes because the focus of the learning model is involving students in the learning process. The PBL model encourages meaningful interactions for the working students who study in part-time class as the special program. Since the students must be trained to practice speaking English. Therefore, speaking competence can be achieved through the activities. Observation and a questionnaire were the two techniques that were used to collect the data. The results showed that the PBL model used by the lecturer in the teaching and learning process that focuses on the discussion to get the alternative solution deeply can make students understand every detail in practicing speaking with real-life issues that require real-life solutions. Thus, this study implied that PBL as a learning model for English subjects was appropriate to make students fluent to communicate in English
