Publisher : Universitas Ahmad Dahlan

This paper is written based on the findings of an Action Based Research aimed at knowing whether the implementation of an online Process Writing Portfolio Program (PWPP) is effective in improving the long distance studentsâ writing ability. The subjects of the study are the students of Faculty of Education and Teacher Training, Universitas Terbuka, at Yogyakarta Long Distance Learning Program Unit. The data are collected from three cycles of the program implementation via email : sudilah@ut.ac.id. Each cycle consists of 4 stages, the plan, action, observation, and reflection. Grades of each cycle were taken from 4 kinds of activities; brainstorming, first draft writing, revising and editing, and final copy. The score increase from cycle to cycle is used to measure the improvement of the studentsâ writing ability. For this purpose the writer uses Wilcoxson Signed Ranks Test and Scoring Scale for Composition. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of online Process Writing Portfolio Program is merely effective in improving the studentsâ writing ability in terms of numerical grade scores. From the Pre- Program Implementation (Pre- PI) to Cycle I, the average increase of the studentsâ writing score is 6.51. After the implementation, that is from the (Pre-IP) cycle to cycle I, the increase achieved is Z =.380 and p = .017 (p <0.05), and from cycle I to II is) Z = 2524 with p = .012 (p <0.05), and from cycle II to III the improvement increase is Z = 2524 with p = .012 (p <.0.05). It means that all of the increase is significant. Yet, if the scores are converted to Skidmoreâs criteria of Scoring Scale for Composition, the quality of the paragraphs does not increase significantly. All of the paragraphs are not publishable yet. Many aspects of refinement are still needed to display or publish the paragraph. Keywords: effectiveness, to improve, online Process Writing Portfolio ProgramÂ

Ahmad Dahlan Journal of English Studies Vol 2, No 2 (2015): September
Publisher : Universitas Ahmad Dahlan

This article intends to explore the benefits of using M-Learning (mobile phone Learning) to support teaching and learning process for digital immigrant teachers. Digital immigrant teachers are those who want to move from conventional way to more technology enhanced language learning. The exploration on using facilities of mobile learning for classroom teaching will enable teachers to make use of internet access, to pursue their studentsâ technology literacy, to access to a wealth of ready-made ELT materials and to integrate technologies of mobile phone into teaching. The exploration found that the potential uses of mobile phone for learning certainly bring implication for both teacher and students under the issues of technology application literacy, intellectual authority, students-students-teacher collaboration, and teaching and learning reflection and evaluation skill development. Above all, teachers can use many applications of their mobile phone from simple to sophisticated ones. They can use texting facilities (sms) for checking studentsâ work progress, use free social media to give consultation, and many other features that facilitate them to transfer knowledge and help students in learning either in or out of classroom. Certainly, they also need to consider the flaws in mobile phone and keep learning to be familiar with technology development. Furthermore, mobile phone also improve teaching qualities in terms of creating contextual learning outside the classroom, for fieldtrips and for professional development; supporting context-sensitive leaning in non-formal settings, connecting the learning across contexts and human life; making useful learning sites involving technology, people and environment, producing system enabling teacher to deliver quizzes for learning topics, encourage students to practice making theory questions, designing a media board for learners to construct online web pages by sending messages, pictures and audio through their phones, and reaching beyond the traditional settings.

Publisher : Universitas Ahmad Dahlan

Writing is a part of four language skills that the students have to be comprehended. In fact,Â many students are unable to do so because they believe that learning to write is difficult. Several resons exist for this dilemma. One is that grammatical rules for the English language are much different than those of Bahasa Indonesia. Second, students typically prossess a limit vocabulary. Third, students do not have much motivation to write English text. One of potential solution to increase writing skills for writing (descriptive text) using cartoon media. In applying cartoon media, the teacher asks students to describe items based on a cartoon, and then after the students have described things such as colour and form. They are asked to compare stories to see which ones are closest to real story and retell the stories what student write. Using this method helps for several reasons. First, the method attacts studentsâ attention. Second, visual material have been shown to be helpful because they are engaging.

Promoting Metacognitive Strategies to Listening Class Sucipto, Sucipto
Ahmad Dahlan Journal of English Studies Vol 2, No 2 (2015): September
Publisher : Universitas Ahmad Dahlan

Listening skill is often ignored. David Nunan (1997) commented that listening is the "Cinderella Skill" which is overlooked by its elder sister "speaking" in SL learning. Speaking and writing skill has become the standard of the knowledge of second language, listening and reading have been turned to be the secondary ones. On the other hand, listening is vital in the language classroom because it provides input for the learner. In fact, most English listening teachers focus on testing learners listening skill rather than on developing the learnersâ listening skill. This practice tends to make them anxious and tends to become ineffective listeners. This condition brings about the learnersâ difficulties in comprehending listening materials. Good English teachers should minimize such a condition. This article attempts to find ways of creating good atmosphere for listening class. What should we âas teachersâ do to respond the problem? Metacognitive is theory of awareness of what and how to learn. Based on my experience in teaching listening, metacognitive strategies are very valuable for learners to learn listening. Finally, I encourage listening class teachers to promote the strategies to their students. To promote the strategies a teacher should do several steps with the class; discussing learnersâ problems, talking the nature of listening, building studentsâ awareness about the important of learning strategies, training the students about metacognitive strategies, and doing reflection.
