Abstract

Having good vocabulary will help the students to understand English passages. A more general way to help students develop vocabulary is by fostering a word consciousness, an awareness of and interest words. Therefore, instruction in vocabulary involves far more than looking up word in a dictionary and using the words in a sentence. The English teacher should apply some techniques in teaching vocabulary  efficiently, successfully, interestingly, and enjoyably. To increase the students’ vocabulary may include choosing the  words in the reading passage and discussing them with the aspects of pronunciation, word form, dictionary work, reading, and using the words in context in five meetings. Other technique is assigning each student a word to look up and present in the class based on “word profile” in one meeting. And the last is practicing vocabulary through games with the whole class, in pairs or teams and in groups. These techniques can be applied to suit the proficiency level of the students and different teaching environments.

Abstract

The concept of English as an international language means English is treated as a global means of communication. This concept shows that English has a various dialects influence by the first language or it refers to the array of varieties of English spoken throughout the world. Therefore the focus of having a good model in English speaking countries, but we can look around and see cultures available around us and integrate them into English language teaching. May studies have highlighted that inserting culture particularly target language culture in EFL class is necessary because language is considered as  carrier of culture. Moreover, integrating local culture is also interesting because local culture is hands on, available any time around us; it isliterally spoken, and accessible; therefore it is not time consuming, it is cheaper and easier to be implemented. Moreover, it advances cooperative learning which improves independency and prepares students to live in globalized world. Viewed from teaching materials, local cultures is rich for its diversity and helps students to develop their identity by thinking about their own culture and by learning about others. Through differences or similarities, they establish an understanding that each of them is different, and understanding that each of them has a culture which is interesting and beneficial to look at.

Abstract

The study aims to identify students’ needs in learning English. Through questionnaires, the students’ needs could be elicited from 192 students, 37 graduate employees, 19 major subject teachers, and five English teachers of Business Administration (BA) department of Politeknik Negeri Sriwijaya. The questionnaire data were analyzed using means, percentages, t-test, and ANOVA and triangulated with the interview results. Four main conclusions can be drawn. First, ESP materials for academic and professional purposes are demanded in English courses because the BA students use four English skills concurrently with English courses for personal and academic purposes and subsequently for future job purposes. Second, the teaching of general English is still needed because the students lack mastery of language aspects (grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary, particularly technical words) and of reception and production strategies. Third, language skills and knowledge of language aspects and of reception and production strategies can be developed through the integration of a variety of in- and out-of-classroom activities. Fourth, the teaching of four language skills needs to be integrated in each semester; however, the teaching of general English, reading, and listening should be focused in lower semesters, whereas ESP, speaking, and writing should be emphasized in higher semesters.

Abstract

Summary writing is widely used as both a means for assessing student learning as well as a way to use other sources in academic writing. As writing teachers we know that our students have difficulty with summarizing information in an organized and accurate way. In their summaries our students focused on trivial information, or simply copied entire sentences from the source text and gave their own opinions and experiences in their summaries. Unskilled readers may need instruction and practice in summarizing paragraphs; other readers may need instruction and practice in summarizing larger chunks of information. They need an approach to sort information, and they need to see how skilled readers with sufficient background knowledge identify important information and summarize. The difficulty of the materials must be graded so that the students’ strategies and skills can be developed progressively Learning should start from single paragraph level summarizing and work up to section summarization and summarization of entire chapters. Finally, they can summarize from multiple sources. The teacher’s instructional materials and models of how to use an appropriate summarization strategy of various text lengths, content area and complexity will improve the ability of students to summarize. The students’ background knowledge is also important in making judgments about the important information in summarizing.

Abstract

This paper is aimed at discussing the use of Palembang’s traditional foods as teaching material through a theme-based language instruction. This idea is based on the awareness of the writer to maintain and preserve their cultures, especially in terms of foods. The data are got by reading references related to the subject, interviews, and observations. The data shown that the Palembang’s indigenous foods can support Palembang as a cultural hub, because the great number of the foods are well-known and spread not only in local but also national scope. Teachers of English can participate in maintaining and preserving the foods by using the foods as teaching material. This can be done through theme-based language instruction. This approach is stressed on the real-life situation that are genuinely communicative and it tends to integrate the four language skills naturally.

Abstract

The objectives of this study were aimed at describing the English proficiency of the non English major students at Sriwijaya University in the academic year of 2007/2008 and whether or not the English teaching has fulfilled the non English students’ needs in learning English as a foreign language. Further, to identify the reasons it the teaching of English at the non English major programs has not fulfilled the students’ needs. At first, the sample of this study was 390 students from 39 study programs out of 8 faculties. However, due to some technical problems, only 266 students of those 8 faculties participated in this study. Based on the results of the toefl test, it was found out that in general, the law faculty students got the highest average score (418.33) while the FKIP students got the lowest average score (372.64). The results of the questionnaire showed that most of the students felt that the teaching of English at their program had not fulfilled their needs (86%). This might be caused by some conditions. First, the methods used did not meet the students’ expectation in which the students preferred to have discussion and presentation rather than lecturing. Second, there were too many students in one class. Third, only 7.3% of the students stated that they did not have any difficulties in learning English. It means 92.7% of the students still got difficulties in learning English. In addition, 39.7% students consider listening as the most difficult subject and 9.5% choose speaking. Fourth, the time allocated for English was not enough—the students might need 2 or 3 semesters to learn English at university.

Abstract

ICT proves to be beneficial to ELT. Thus, the integration is important but some obstacles are faced by teachers in the process. This is a descriptive study focusing on identifying obstacles in integrating ICT into ELT in teachers’ point of view. The subjects of this study, who completed a likert-like scale questionnaire investigating the obstacles, are fifty teachers from ten senior high schools in Palembang. The questionnaire investigates two levels of obstacles: (1) teacher-level obstacles and (2) school-level obstacles. The findings show that school-level obstacles, such as lack of professional development and training, lack of technical support, lack of incentives, lack of funding and lack of time, are more dominant factors as compared to teacher-level obstacles, such as lack of teacher competence and confidence, resistance to change and negative attitude. Some suggestions are offered based on the findings of this study.
