Abstract

This study was aimed at investigating attitude and anxiety of Indonesian lecturers in writing English papers for international publications, together with the influence of gender and functional grades on them. It involved lecturers of a private university in Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia (n=62) who were attending a training on English academic writing especially designed to help them prepare manuscripts for international publications. Data were collected by questionnaires and analyzed using t-test and ANOVA. The study found that the attitude toward writing was positive. Three aspects of attitude namely behavioral, cognitive, and affective were all positive. The anxiety in writing English papers was found to be moderate and somatic anxiety was the type of anxiety the lecturers suffered the most. There was no difference on the attitude and level of anxiety across gender but there was a difference on the level of anxiety across functional grades. As attitude and anxiety predict the success of writing efforts, which may then affect the success of publication, the issue of attitude and anxiety needs to be addressed in the effort of increasing the productivity of Indonesian lecturers in making international publications.

Abstract

Students’ expectation of their teacher’s teaching style is one of the factors that can affect academic performance. However, it is unclear how much students’ expectation affects the English academic performance of students. The objectives of this study were: (1) to find the students’ expectation on their English teacher’s teaching style, (2) to find whether the English teacher’s teaching style matches with the students’ expectation, and (3) to find the contribution of students’ expectation toward teacher’s teaching style toward their English academic performance. The study’s sample was one English teacher from each public senior high school in Sukarami District, SMA N 13, SMA N 17, and SMA N 21, along with 11th-grade students they taught. This research used descriptive quantitative design. The data were collected by questionnaire and documents as quantitative data, and interview as qualitative data. Pearson Product Moment correlation and regression were used to analyze quantitative data while transcribing was used to analyze qualitative data. The findings showed that (1) the students expected their English teacher to use Expert and Facilitator teaching style, (2) the student’s expectation is not perfectly fulfilled as the teachers prefer Expert and Formal Authority teaching style, and (3) there was no contribution of students’ expectation toward their English teacher’s teaching style to their English academic performance.

Abstract

COVID-19 outbreak that has shifted face-to-face (f2f) to force­d remote learning challenged the CLIL Science teacher to thrive in a new teaching form. The f2f adaptation of the virtual meeting using video conferencing software has driven the teacher to have an effective and accessible synchronous learning environment, in addition to the asynchronous one. This research was a narrative inquiry participated by a CLIL Science teacher teaching the first-grader in a small town in Indonesia. By employing an in-depth interview, the data were collected and then analyzed by emotional geography frameworks. The findings showcased the f2f adaptations made by the teacher that synchronous mode of delivery was conducted in thirty minutes by careful attention on CLIL frameworks, the language (s) use, and students’ engagement. Her sociocultural, moral, professional and political geographies led her to decide what to do to make the students learning feasible. An implication of this is the possibility that the experience of how the CLIL Science teacher taught the young learners using English would be a new insight for other teachers in dealing with real-time live lesson delivery during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Abstract

This study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of utilizing flipped classrooms on seventh graders' English language skills (reading comprehension, writing, listening, and speaking) and areas (grammar and vocabulary) at Farahat Secondary Girls' School. The researchers chose two 7th classes for the study, and then the flipped learning was implemented with the experimental group, while the control group had traditional learning. According to data collection, the researchers used a pretest and a posttest to measure the students' achievements after 9 weeks of flipping the classrooms, which were executed on 36 female students. Then, a semi-structured interview was conducted to draw a clear picture of flipped learning. The major findings of the study revealed that there were significant differences in English language skills and areas between both groups. The experimental group achieved higher scores than the control one, and the most prominent improved skills are listening, speaking, and communication.

The participants were the third semester students of English study program, UM Palembang in academic year 2019/2020 which amounted to 40 students. This study was a quantitative research. This study used pre-experimental method. The research design used two groups pretest post-test design. The researcher conducted several steps to analyze the data; first, data from pre- and post-test results were analyzed to find averages obtained from the control and experimental group. Second, the data obtained by the control and experimental group were compared statistically to determine differences in grammar test scores between the two groups using paired sample tests. Third, the data obtained from the second step were compared statistically to find the significant differences in the grammar values between the two groups by using paired sample t-tests. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the experimental group before the treatment was carried out in the learning process based on the pretest value was still not good, but when the treatment has been carried out, the student post-test results showed a very good improvement. For the control group, there were no favorable changes (significant) between the pre- and post-test result scores, because both of them showed the same results, which were not good.
