Grammar is one of the important elements in English that must be mastered or at least understood by the learners. In measuring students’ understanding of grammar, teachers can use four kinds of tests. They are gap filling, paraphrase, completion, and multiple choice. Multiple choice and gap filling are commonly used in assessing grade-schoolers’ understanding of grammar. Both of them are considered easy tests. Thus, there shouldt be no difference in students’ scores, whether using multiple choice test or gap filling test. This study is conducted to find a brief comparison of the usage of multiple choice and gap filling in measuring their understanding of grammar. This study also tries to determine which test is more influential in measuring the students’ understanding of grammar. This study uses quantitative approach. The data collection is obtained from students’ scores in both tests and the questionnaires. Through data analysis it is found that there is a significant difference in students’ scores of multiple choice and gap filling test. Students’ multiple choice scores are significantly better than their gap filling scores. It is also found that most of students believe that gap filling test is better than multiple choice test to assess their understanding of grammar. KEYWORDS: grammar, multiple choice test, gap filling test, paraphrase, completion

The analysis of language and culture has been long and widely made. To mention a few, Lies Sercu (2005) addresses this issue in Foreign Language Teachers and Intercultural Competence, Soler and Jordan (ed, 2007) in Intercultural language Use and Language Learning, Nieto (2010) in Language, Cultural and Teaching, and Deardorff (2009) in The Sage Handbook of Intercultural Competence . Nevertheless, most recently this topic has received more attention and become more important, as discussed by Dasep Suprijadi and Euis Rina Mulyani in their research based articles. If the goal of language instruction is communicative competence, language instruction must be integrated with cultural and cross-cultural instruction for sociocultural competence is part of communicative competence, besides linguistic competence, discourse competence, formulaic competence, and interactional competence, as proposed by Celce-Murcia (1995) in Soler and Jorda (2007). Sociocultural competence refers to the speaker’s pragmatic knowledge, i.e. how to express messages appropriately within the overall social and cultural context of communication. This includes knowledge of language variation with reference to sociocultural norms of the target language. In fact a social or cultural blunder can be far more serious than a linguistic error when one is engaged in oral communication.

It is reported by World Bank that Indonesian students’ readingcomprehension is very low. That is why, it is crucial to conduct a researchon appropriate techniques to develop students’ reading comprehension. Oneof them is mind mapping (MM). MM is a technique that can increase one’sability in note taking. It not only includes the key words of information orideas but also implements the use of colors and drawing, thus MM projectbecomes fun and enjoyable. The aim of this study is to observe theimplementation of MM in a class of first graders of a senior high school inBandung. For that reason , two meetings are observed. There are threeinstruments employed: students’ mind maps, observation (by observer andthe teacher), and open-ended questionnaire. From the data obtained, it isrevealed that there is improvement from the first meeting (90.4%) to thesecond one (94.6%) of the students mind maps. The MM can make thestudents recall their background knowledge and focus on their reading.Meanwhile, the questionnaires indicate that they are unfamiliar with thetechnique, yet they enjoy it.

Assessment has recently become one of the new educational issues around Asia Pacific countries. The two reflective questions formulated are: 1) Is assessment new in the educational life of Indonesia? 2) How do we consider our educational quality compared to countries around Asia pacific? These questions urged this study to conduct a research in UPI’s SMP Laboratorium Percobaan Bandung to see the perceptions, planning and management of the school (the headmaster) and the three English teachers as the participants, in terms of their application of the assessment. In a qualitative descriptive method, the interviewing, observation and document analysis have been implemented to collect the data.. As a result, this school and the English teachers are only familiar with the summative assessment, part of assessment which is mainly grading or testing, evaluative, and less informative to identify students’ learning problem and to recommend teachers’ teaching modification and improvement. KEYWORDS: assessment, teachers’ perception and the teaching

This study intends to portray whether or not the teacher is developing learners’pragmatic competence in the teaching of English at the tenth grade of a seniorhigh school in southern Bandung. This study is descriptive in nature guided bytwo research questions covering: 1) What method is used by the teacher in theteaching of English?, and 2) Does the method indicate the teacher’s awarenessin developing learners’ pragmatic competence? The data for this study werecompiled through classroom observation. The study found out that thelanguage-centered method used by the teacher does not indicate the teacher’sawareness in developing learners’ pragmatic competence, since such a methodonly focuses on linguistic forms or grammatical structures. This method seeksto provide opportunities for learners to practice pre-selected, pre-sequencedlinguistic structure through form-focused exercises in class. This studyconcludes that the teacher’s activities are not aimed at raising students’pragmatic competence or offering opportunities for communicative practice.She does not have any effort to equip her students with the necessary knowledgeto enable them to use the target language appropriately. Thus, the teacher tendsto be unaware of developing learners’ pragmatic competence in the teaching ofEnglish.KEYWORDS: awareness, teaching, pragmatic competence
