Abstract

This article draws on two studies that examined primary children’s attitudes towards science in the classroom and their experiences of science. Through the data drawn from semi-structured interviews, it was evident that the children were mostly positive about science, but their experiences of science in the classroom were not always how they would prefer their science learning to proceed.  The findings highlight aspects of their experiences that enhanced or detracted from their interest in science. In particular, the students stated the importance of being taught relevant and meaningful science in a collaborative context. Children’s out-of-school contexts also became important in their learning of science. These findings are discussed, and suggestions are made for ways in which teachers can make changes to their planning and teaching in order to support positive attitudes to science within the classroom.

Abstract

There has been a considerable increase in the number of studies on hedges that can help authors to reduce commitment and negotiate the meaning between the reader and the writer. This study examines hedging devices based on corpus-based analysis of 750 research articles (4,831,500 running words) extracted from 15 leading journals in the areas of linguistics and EFL. Wordsmith Tools 5.0 was used for identifying hedging devices. The frameworks of both Hyland (1998a, 2005) and Varttala (1998) were integrated to identify the functions of hedging devices. The results reveal that modal auxiliary hedging (44.9%) is found more than the other types, while the noun category is the least used (2.17%). However, the use of different syntactic features (personal or impersonal) when combined with epistemic lexical terms appeared to influence different interpretations of lexical hedging mainly regarding the politeness strategy. Additionally, it is the authors' responsibility to hedge their own propositions. Learners should know the rules of hedges to distinguish real facts and findings from researchers' biased views and conclusions, and to use these markers accurately in their own works. The current study is practical for EFL learners as it discusses many types of hedges for familiarizing students with the appropriate use of hedging.

Abstract

Colloid is one of the chemical topics taught in high school. Actually, the characteristic of Colloid topic is contextual. Colloid topic is taught by expository and discussion methods. Based on observations in SMA Negeri 4 Malang and SMA Negeri 16 Surabaya, these methods could not improve students’ ability to construct their own knowledge; as a result, students did not have a good understanding in the Colloid topic. An alternative way to increase students’ understanding, especially in the cognitive aspect is using innovative teaching materials like a colloid module based on guided inquiry approach. The previously mentioned module was developed by the author. The feasibility percentage of the Module was 85.66%. The aim of this research is to find the effectiveness of the Colloid Module to increase students’ cognitive learning outcomes. This research used one group pretest-posttest experimental design. The sample of this research consisted of 33 students of X-MIPA 3 SMA Negeri 2 Malang in the 2015/2016 academic year. The effectiveness of The Colloid Module to increase cognitive learning outcomes was determined by the results of paired sample t-test analysis and the gain score of students’ pretest and posttest using cognitive test instrument. This cognitive test instrument had content validity index of 92.04%. Based on the trial result of 36 students in SMA Negeri 3 Malang, 30 questions were considered valid and had a reliability coefficient of 0.866 based on Spearman-Brown. The result of this research showed that the Colloid Module was effective to increase students’ cognitive learning outcomes. It was indicated by the analysis of paired sample t-test, with t score (-38.525) lower than t critical (-2.037), so there was a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores after using the Colloid Module. The effectiveness of the Colloid Module was also determined by the gain score of pretest and posttest scores of students’ cognitive skills of 0.688, categorized as a medium gain.

Abstract

Virginia Woolf was a British writer. She committed suicide in 1941, leaving suicide notes for her sister and her husband. Her suicide note was made public and was misquoted under the misleading headline in newspapers’ articles. This made people at that time misinterpret her suicide notes. This analysis aims to prove the genuineness of Virginia Woolf’s suicide notes, reveal the intention behind her suicide notes, and investigate the real motive of her suicide with Linguistics Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC) program and semantic forensic analysis in forensic linguistics perspective. In conclusion, Virginia Woolf’s suicide notes are considered genuine and have positive emotional tone. The result of this analysis supports the statement of another psychologist that her suicide was triggered by Bipolar disorder.

Abstract

Grice (1975) provides an interpretative model that explains how we draw inferences from conversation. This theory of Cooperative Principle (CP), based on the philosophical ideas of Grice, relates the text to its contexts, including social context. As Schiffrin (1994) remarks, the application of CP to dialogic conversations leads to a particular view of discourse and its analysis, i.e. discourse as a text whose contexts (including cognitive, social and linguistic contexts) allow the interpretation of real speaker meaning in utterances (p. 227). The approach that Gricean Pragmatics offers to discourse analysis is based on a set of general principles about rationally-oriented communicative conduct that tells speakers and hearers how to organize and use information offered in a text, along with background knowledge of the world (including knowledge of the immediate social context), to convey (and understand) more than what is said– put simply, to communicate.  In this paper, I am going to focus on and explore how we understand fictional discourse using pragmatic interpretative strategies to reconstruct inferential chains which lead us to a particular interpretation of conversation. I will discuss various issues of inferences, generated via Grice’s model, in the interpersonal pragmatics involved in the character utterances in Vikram Seth’s A Suitable Boy. The paper attempts to demonstrate how pragmatic interpretative strategies can make an added contribution to the study of literature as well as to the development of pragmatic competence, critical thinking, and better understanding of the use of naturally occurring language, both in literature and language classrooms.

Abstract

This study attempted to examine the effects of an ER program accompanied by reading logs on the degree of critical thinking skills of sophomore English literature students at the University of Mazandaran. Two groups of English Literature majors formed the two experimental groups of the study in which only the former kept guided reading logs, while the latter group only read extensively.  Participants were also divided by their proficiency in reading into two groups of high and low achievers to compare the differences, if any, in the critical thinking skills observed. The results of the Independent t-test indicated no significant difference between the groups regarding their critical thinking ability (sig= .900). Thus, it was concluded that although both groups showed a little progress after the treatment, the difference was not statistically significant whereupon to conclude that reading logs may not drastically affect learners' critical thinking development.

Abstract

In this reflection, the author reports on his experience teaching English through American culture to Indonesian university educators during three week intensive programs in Indonesia.  The author implemented culturally meaningful activities based upon the use of realia, or objects that connect language and on-the-ground reality of native speakers for the foreign language learner.  Baseball, baking, the card game Uno, and poetry proved to be successful vehicles for learning.  Additionally, emailing between the class and the author’s contacts in North America provided participants with “case studies” of real Americans/native speakers of English.  Such interactions with actual Americans may provide a useful contrast/compliment to the stereotypical images of Americans disseminated by mass media.  Lastly, while the teaching of English and American culture overseas may be controversial to some, this reflection argues that the careful selection of pedagogies can facilitate mutually enriching exchanges.  Insights into appropriate realia, subsequent activities, and teaching considerations in Indonesia may be gleaned from this reflection by pedagogues and practitioners alike.

Abstract

The welfare of a nation is determined by the quality of its education. The quality of education is in turn determined by the quality of teachers, and the quality of teachers by the values that guide them in performing their profession. Teachers who perform their profession based on values are best performing teachers. The question is what spiritual values guide them in fulfilling their job as a teacher? This is the main question in describing the values that become the foundation, guidelines, and motivation for teachers in performing their profession; the values that are apparent in daily life behaviors as the educational principles that become the authentic character of the teachers. To meet this goal, narrative inquiry method was employed to analyze the thoughts, feelings, and ideas of best performing teachers from the story, history or activities they recount. In order to answer the main question of this research, 24 best performing teachers from various levels of education from West Java and other provinces were gathered. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the researcher that plays the role of research instrument. Then, the data were transcribed so that each respondent has his or her own ”narration”. After getting coded and numbered, the sentences were processed with monocorn version 1.3 to find the frequency of keywords that will narrow down to certain themes potential to be the research findings. The findings were then analyzed, compared, and contrasted to tendencies as conclusions strengthened with discussion from theoretical perspectives.
