Abstract

This study aims to observe the implementation of directive speech acts by English teachers in teaching and learning activities in MAN 2 Model Medan. The objectives of this study are to analyze the types of directive speech acts, the way directive speech acts are used by teachers, and the reasons teachers perform directive speech acts in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classroom interactions. The research methodology was descriptive qualitative. The data were collected by observation and interview. The data in this study are sentences spoken by the teacher that contain directive speech acts. The data sources are two teachers who teach English subjects in X IPA 4 and XI IPA 5 classes. The researcher found three results from this study, they are 1) Teachers use three types of directive speech acts: command (48 utterances), request (7 utterances), and suggestion (10 utterances). Command is the most frequent of all the types of directive speech acts performed by teachers in EFL classroom interactions since teachers always use this type to attract students’ attention and convey their instructions during the teaching-learning process; 2) In performing directive speech acts, teachers use two ways: direct (51 times) and indirect (14 times). Direct directive speech acts are the most frequent of all the ways of directive speech acts used by teachers in EFL classroom interactions since teacher often used utterances that had no implicit meaning and immediately understood and responded to by students; 3) The reasons teachers perform directive speech acts in EFL classroom interactions are because there are many functions in using directive speech acts. Commands were to attract students’ attention (Attention-getter), to test students’ knowledge or understanding (Elicitation), and to ask students to do something (Instruction). Requests were to attract students’ attention (Attention-getter), to test students’ knowledge (Elicitation), and to make students do what the teacher instructs (Instruction). Then, Suggestions were to suggest and to advise students on what should do (Suggestion/Advice).Keywords: Directive Speech Acts, Teaching and Learning Activity, EFL Classroom

Abstract

This study was conducted by using descriptive qualitative design. The participants were the students grade 8 of SMP Budi Murni Medan which consists of 25 students. This study revealed that there is different consistency between Text Processing Awareness and Completion Task for derivational morpheme and inflectional morphology. It was concluded that completion task is suitable for inflectional morpheme while for derivational morpheme it does not totally measure awareness, most of them measure ability to produce word. Furthermore, judgment task is the simplest of three tasks that measure the students’ awareness about morphological complex words. Some of the students have less awareness due to lack of vocabulary knowledge and the high frequency of words given.Keywords: morphological awareness, task completion, text processing

Abstract

This thesis discusses the personality structure of the main character in Dilan Dia Adalah Dilanku Tahun 1990 novel. The personality structures in question are id, ego, and superego. The data for this research is the Dilan Dia Adalah Dilanku Tahun 1990 novel which was collected using the literature study method. Data analysis methods used are formal methods and content analysis. The basis for implementing the content analysis method is interpretation. The results of data analysis are presented using a qualitative descriptive method. The theory used to describe the personality structure of the main character is Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory which includes the Id, Ego, and Superego. The results of this study reveal the personality form of the id ego superego of the main character, Milea. The form of id in the main character is to refuse discomfort, seek pleasure and fulfill biological needs. The main character's ego is the morality of humanity in the form of an ego defense mechanism in problem solving and decision making. The form of the main character's superego is the superego holding back the fullness of the id because Milea's anxiety over things that haven't happened yet causes doubts which then creates an ego. Keywords: Psychoanalysis, personality structure, id, ego, superego
