Abstract

Considering the lack of research on character education in higher education, this paper proposes that Bildungsroman, a genre concerned with a protagonist’s development and education from childhood to adulthood, fits perfectly into the recent need of literary works for teaching character education in college. Employing literature review, this paper argues that Bildungsroman satisfies the major requirements for literary works for character education in college drawn from O’Sullivan (2004). Bildungsroman also provides a rich source for cultivation of character traits as stipulated by the Indonesian Department of National Education (2010). Furthermore, the general theme of self-development is highly appropriate to the nature of character education in higher education, namely as a continuation and consolidation of the character developed in college students’ previous education. It is expected that the present study will contribute to the teaching of character education through literature, although further studies are required in order to explore the effective teaching and learning techniques.

Abstract

ICT plays a vital role in English language learning since it boosts motivation (Schoepp Erogul, 2001), learners’ autonomy (Tri. et al., 2014) and learning skills (Galavis, 1998). This study aimed to examine the effects of ICT-based learning using wiki on learning of students’ vocabulary mastery at the junior high school. The design of the present study was quasi-experimental study. The population of the study was seventh graders of a junior high school in Bandung. Experimental group and control group comprised of 25 students each. The instruments of the study were a pre-test and a post-test of vocabulary mastery and an online learning platform called wiki. The data were analyzed by SPSS 16.0 for the windows. The findings revealed that there were significant differences at .05 level between experimental group and control group (df= 49, t= 2.02). Furthermore, recommendations are proposed for the teachers whose teaching philosophy is twisted with ICT-based learning. For instance, they should provide an interesting topic on the wiki, let them chat while working online, assign them working at home and well prepare the facilities used in the class before starting of the lesson.

To conduct the study, a descriptive survey design was employed. A total of 12 teachers and 60 students of the high, medium, and lower achievers participated in the study through availability and purposive sampling technique. The study was complemented by mixed methods approach with data collection tools such as observation checklists, questionnaires, and interviews. The quantitative data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, and grand mean and the qualitative were analyzed thematically. The findings of the study revealed that most of the respondents have perceived active learning positively. In spite of their good perceptions, their practices of active learning were low/poor. The major factors affecting the effective implementation of active learning were large class size with fixed sitting arrangement, inadequate teacher training, tendency of focusing on teacher-centered method, and time scarcity. Finally, it is recommended that responsible bodies rearrange the conditions and facilitate necessary inputs for the implementation.

Abstract

The research was aimed at identifying Indonesian and Thai graduate students’ competence in foreign language, English or other foreign languages, describing their study skills by documenting their foreign language learning strategies, and documenting the ways in which they use their competence in English or other foreign languages to facilitate their learning processes. Participants of the study possessed different foreign language skills other than English. Some Indonesian students could speak French and Japanese, and Thai students were able to speak Chinese and Laos. However, their foreign language skills were mostly poor. Only a few students claimed that they were good foreign language speakers. It is believed that when individuals do not practice their foreign language skills frequently, they will lose their skills acquisition as they are not able to keep their language knowledge in their memory. In terms of language use, they speak foreign language(s) for academic, professional, economic, and cultural purposes. In sum, both Indonesian and Thai graduate students are mostly classified into receptive type of learners as they tend to improve receptive language skills rather than productive ones because for their academic purposes, which only require them to read and listen. It is recommended that the students improve their academic writing skills.

A total of 148 Form Six teachers from Kuching, Sarawak through a random sampling technique were identified as respondents of the study. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires to the respondents. The questionnaire used was adapted from the previous researchers’ questionnaires. The findings show that the dimensions of individual consideration, charisma, and motivation in transformational leadership have a significant effect on job satisfaction among the teachers. Based on the findings obtained, the two-ways relations between the middle leaders and teachers need to be improved by adopting an open approach and working to understand the work-related problems.

Abstract

The implementation of authentic assessment can help teachers to know the extent to which students are able to apply their knowledge and skills in accordance with the contexts of real situations. This is because authentic assessment focuses on activities or tasks that students do, as the knowledge and skills taught are tailored to the real contexts. The research objective is to describe the implementation of authentic assessment in Extensive Reading course in Indonesian Language Education and Literature Study Program Sanata Dharma University. This research used descriptive qualitative analysis method. The instruments used in this study were tests. The researcher conducted the implementation of authentic assessment in Extensive Reading on identifying the meanings of difficult words, idioms, and expressions. The obtained data show that the students’ average extensive reading ability was 80 with a very high category. The implementation of authentic assessment could provide some benefits such as (a) identifying the direct measurement of expected competence indicators of students’ performances; (b) encouraging students to demonstrate their performance in a real and meaningful situation; (c) providing students with the opportunity to construct their learning outcomes by selecting and compiling answers based on their knowledge and the situational analysis so that the answers are relevant and meaningful; and (d) integrating teaching, learning, and assessment activities. It is then recommended that authentic assessment be applied in the teaching and learning of reading courses.

Abstract

This study investigates students’ perspectives and measured their attitude, confidence, and anxiety when interacting with omputer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) through project-based instructions. Thirty students from a CALL course participated in this study by responding to a questionnaire and writing a reflective note about their experiences in the course. The qualitative research findings indicate that the majority of the students possess a ositive attitude, confidence and anxiety levels towards the use of technology in their course even though the statistical analysis indicated that there were no significant differences of the students’ attitudes, confidence, and anxiety levels before and after taking the CALL course. Considering the findings, the researchers suggest hat the technology-based projects discussed in the present study can become viable learning activities to prepare pre-service EFL teachers to deal with the effort and initiative by the Ministry of Education in some countries to encourage local teachers integrating the best and wisest use of technology into lessons. Pedagogical implications for teaching and learning CALL as well as direction for further research are discussed in the study.
