Nowadays, many universities hold speech contest to facilitate their students in improving their communicative skills. Widya Mandala Catholic University, through English Department, holds a speech contest during the English Celebration Week event. As speech contest in common, students are required to conduct a good speech that deals with the topic given. Unfortunately, there are still some mistakes found that deal with the argument components and verbal fallacies. In figuring out a good speech, the contestants’ speeches are recorded and transcribed to be analyzed whether they have met the quality of a good speech which are: (1) includes all of the main components of argument and (2) fallacies free. Since the speech contestants are still in the first semester, they have limited knowledge on argument components and verbal fallacies.

Abstract

Cooperative Learning (CL) is notably superior among other instructional learning methods in improving academic achievement and affective domains. Nevertheless, how learners think of the enjoyableness of CL and the circumstances that heighten such positive learning outcomes are often neglected. This research explored the perceptions of 36 high school learners who studied the functions and patterns of the notoriously problematic Conditional Sentences within the dynamics of a CL technique called Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD). It examined the extent to which learners perceived their amount of learning, their contributions to the learning of others and the overall pleasure of following the STAD cooperative strategy. As individual characteristics contribute to the success of CL applications, the perception between boys and girls, and high and low achievers were compared to ascertain any peculiarities. Confirmed through Chi-square analysis, the research uncovered that neither gender nor past achievement matter in the forming of perception as all participants perceived the learning process positively. However, males were slightly more appreciative on the importance of team contribution as well as individual accountability for their learning success. Only a small rate of lower-ability students felt strongly positive of improved comprehension. Likewise, surpassing their counterparts, high achievers more firmly verified the clarity of STAD concept. Both high and low achievers provided adequate contribution to the teamwork, yet only 25% of the entire population felt strongly about recommending STAD based on the unlikeliness for non-conceptual learning to fit with the approach.

Abstract

News headlines are the most noticeable feature in the newspapers. Readers are able to choose what kind of news that they want to know by reading the headlines. However, the forms of the headlines are unique and sometimes they are quite difficult to be understood since some words in the headlines are omitted in order to keep the headlines short. This study is conducted to find what sentence components in terms of phrase structure categories and syntactic categories are omitted. This study analyzes the Jakarta Post (Indonesia's leading English-language daily) headlines from online version syntactically using a tree diagram proposed by Marianne Celce – Murcia and Diane Larsen – Freeman (1999). The sources of the data are 81 headlines from national news section issued from November 1st to November 30th, 2013. In those headline, some words are omitted. The study finds that there are omissions in the Jakarta Post headlines which are under the phrase structure categories AUX, AUX + VP, NP, VP, AP, PREP P, and S. Out of these phrase structure categories, AUX and AUX + VP occur most frequently in the headlines with the percentage of 75% and 13% respectively. Under the syntactic categories, omissions which occur are T + 2 Passive, T + pm, T + prog, T + cop, conjunction, determiner and preposition. The omission of “be” in the syntactic categories T + Passive, T + pm, T + prog and T + cop occurs most frequently.
