Abstract

This article reports on a study aimed at exploring and examining English language teachers’ skills in questioning to enhance students’ verbal repsonses in EFL (English as a Foreign language) classes. This  was a qualitative case study, employing discourse analysis, conducted in one junior high school in a town in Central Java Province, Indonesia. The research participants were two Indonesian teachers of English language. They taught Year Eight students in the academic year of 2015/2016. The data were collected from audio-video recordings, transcripts of the lessons, classroom observations notes, and teachers’ interviews. The transcriptions were analysed by using Wu’s taxonomy of questioning strategies (1993) as it gave a detailed categorization of teachers’ questions to stimulate students’ verbal responses. The findings showed that the teachers used mostly four questioning strategies. The first teacher often applied decomposition strategy where the initial question was elaborated into some questions, while the second teacher tended to use repetition strategy. This study has shown that teachers’ questioning skills is crucial to successfully make students engaged in the classroom interaction, enhance students’ verbal responses, and lead to the comprehension of the lesson. Therefore, it is suggested that teachers should be more aware of their questioning skills to assist students achieve better proficiency in the English language. Keywords: Teachers’ questioning strategies, students’ verbal responses, EFL classes, classroom discourse analysis

Abstract

This study investigated the effect of short silent animations on pre-intermediate EFL learners’ writing. A homogenized group of 60 participants was non-randomly chosen and assigned as the control and experimental groups. Those in the control group watched five short animations with dialogue, while those in the experimental group had five short animations which were silent. The procedure lasted 10 sessions. In both groups, the participants were asked to write five writings regarding the subjects of the animations during the term and each of the writings should have contained a minimum of 90 and maximum of 140 words. The participants were provided both oral and written feedback. At the end of the instruction, a sample PET writing posttest was administered to both groups, an independent samples t-test was run on the mean scores of the two groups, and the results (t = -2.02, p = 0.0370.05) revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group. Keywords: ELT, silent animations, writing
