Abstract

With reference to the introduction of English teaching at the Primary Schools in Indonesia, textbooks are very important things to deal with due to the fact that these are considered as "the visible heart of the ELT programme" for both students and teachers (Sheldon 1988:237). To meet the needs of the textbooks, schools buy textbooks commercially published by local andforeign publishers, whose writers are native speakers. They normally live in their own culture, and therefore find it hard to compose data beyond their own culturcl boundaries. Its a result, the definition and application of systematic criteria for assessing those published by local as well as foreign publishers are vital. By identifying the potential strengths and weaknesses of textbooks in general with the suggested criteria, the teacher will have a comparative basis for making decisions and he! she is unlikely to make a bad choice of textbooks.

Abstract

The teaching English to young children has become important in Indonesia in recent years. It means that the role and importance of English has got serious attention. Parents and educational leaders see early English education as a necessary prerequisite for children's later success. The underlying assumption is that learners will be more successful if they begin studying English at early age. As a result, now days there are many teachers find themselves teaching in primary school even though they have no English background or been trained for this level. Most of the English graduates are only well equipped to teach junior or senior high schools. Therefore, when they have to teach them, the challenge is how to create the quality of teaching and learning programs that match to the needs for young learners. One of the hardest things about working with young learners is that often they are preliterate. When you are working with them, you can't just write letters and words on the board and expect them to able to read what you have written. However, they can orally learn a large amount of language before they learn to read and write.

Abstract

Even though some authors argue that critical thinking (CT) is almost impossible to be taught to students in non-Western countries since Western and non-Western countries have different cultural background, several studies on CT conducted in Asia, Africa and predominantly Muslim countries have showed that it can be taught to non-Western students. CT has actually been fashionable in non-Western countries, and several non-Western countries have nowadays included it in their educational agenda. In spite of CT’s gaining popularity in non-Western countries, there is very little information as regards what kind of CT which is adopted in those non-Western countries’ education and what CT framework which can work in their teaching-learning processes, especially in the field of ELT. This article attempts to propose a critical thinking framework that can be used in ELT as well as other school subjects. The framework is the result of critically analyzing, examining and synthesizing 20 critical thinking taxonomies, strategies, programs and tests.
