For the first cycle of CAR the writer who was new in this course had a partner in conducting the course for two classes. At that time the seminar paper was targeted to prepare a research proposal.  As a partner of an experienced lecturer, the writer did not face much problem because the writer just follow the partner. The writer also  used to teach educational research course. At the beginning of the new year of 2013/2014 the writer present the sylabus content and the purposes of seminar course to be discussed in the Biology Department. The result of the lecturers’ discussion was that the seminar can be used to train the students to present ideas in (Biology) Education, it can be a research proposal or any ideas in Biology Education.

The problems faced by the writer was in guiding students in finding the title of the  seminar paper, in finding how to guide the students in using literature sources and in writing the seminar paper. The writer tried to answer the problem by conducting CAR with the action to give the students tasks to present the problems that were interested for the students,  to do critical analysis of at least ten articles, to present the results of critical analysis of articles related to the background of the problem in front of the class and show the highlighted part of the articles that will be cited in the background of the problem, and to present the draft of the seminar paper. The results showed that students had tried their best in preparing the tasks but that the writer still had to give examples on how to give inputs to the presenter on how to improve the  ideas and the presentation.

There are seven Cell Biology materials that were implemented in two different classes with the use of  STAD models. The Lesson Study that include Plan, Do, and See activities was implemented with the purpose of improving the quality of teaching learning processes. The data of learning ability was measured using quiz at the end of each lecture, while the discussion ability data was obtained through observation of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th using the observation sheet with aspects of observations: a) the contribution to the task, b) leadership,              c) collaboration,  d) ability to cooperate, e) understanding of the materials, f) presentation style, and g) the quality of the questions raised.

Abstract

A way to improve English language teaching is an investigation of students’ English language problems. This study therefore explored Thai high school students’ English language learning problems. This was a case study, employing a survey design and using a questionnaire as instrument for data collection. The subjects were 104 high school students in Lampang Province, Thailand. The results of this study revealed the following findings. On listening, the students had difficulty in class discussion in English. On speaking, they had trouble with asking questions in English in the classroom. On reading, they could not understand English idioms. On writing, they were unable to finish essay writing within a limited time.  On sociocultural perspectives on second language learning, they lacked opportunity to spend time associate with native speakers. On international communication barriers, on oral presentation for a lesson assignment, they rehearsed it only 2-3 times to prepare themselves. Lastly, of all language learning tasks, the most problematic English task was writing. This study is a puzzle to the whole picture. Future inquiry should replicate this study to see the whole picture of this issue.
