Abstract

Initial teacher education (ITE) programs play a pivotal role not only in helping student teachers build and enhance their theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge but also in assisting them to construct their teacher identity. At present, the ITE program also aims to prepare student teachers for the 21st century profession of teaching. Therefore, it is important to develop an informed curriculum for ITE, which caters to needs of student teachers and those of changing educational needs in tandem. In this plenary paper, I wish to flesh out such four key issues as a need for developing an informed ITE curriculum, domains of theoretical and practical knowledge student teachers need to learn, and role of teacher identity in the ITE program. I conclude by addressing a need for reframing an ITE curriculum in order to meet changing needs for educating and training more qualified teachers in the 21st century education and beyond.

Abstract

Teachers’ ability to compose high quality test is highly important, because with the good quality test, teachers are able to measure precisely the success of the learning process they has done. To be able to know teachers’ ability in composing learning outcome test, the research has been done in order to acquire clear information. The measurement of learning outcomes test quality made by teacher can be seen in test item validity, test reliability, test discriminating power, and test difficulty level. The research result shows that the tests made by Indonesia language teacher are: (a) invalid so it cannot become students’ learning outcomes measuring instrument, (b) it does not have test validity aspect, (c) it does not fulfil test reliability test. Based on the result, intense training related to test composing technique, test quality analysis, and school’s evaluation techniques is necessary.

Abstract

The study aims to develop a media for teaching projection drawing to improve the quality of learning process and outcomes. The research was conducted at the Department of Arts Education, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Sebelas Maret, Surakarta, Indonesia. The study is a classroom action research consisting of two cycles. The subjects of the research are 20 students. The research manipulate the multimedia-based learning resource in the form of the power point presentation program that displays moving dot-points, lines, and colored objects, supported with sound effects. The data was collected through observation and interview, and is then analyzed using comparative technique to compare the condition before, during, and after the research. The result of the research, which is a media for teaching and learning projection drawing, consists of nine topics, including: concept of projection image plane, projection of points, projection of lines, projection of planes, projection of the surface of an object, projection of object rotated to the left, projection of object rotated to the front, projection of oblique object, and projection of truncated objects. The model of drawing sequence was presented sequentially as an integrated drawing item in which lines were displayed in different primary colors followed by a combination of motions and sound effects. To use the model effectively, the study finds that the configuration of dots and lines should be presented more precisely, each picture should be clearly drawn with identical sound in each movement, movement of curves should show the center point, each topic should be displayed per field, and each image should be followed by the description of the problem.

Abstract

Poetry is the most neglected subject in the teaching of English as a Second Language. Being neglected forlong, it has become a peripheral item. Unlike reading and speaking it is minor n the major trends. No wonderteachers and students are not familiar with it. Therefore they do not know how to interact with a poemsystematically. The major cause is the lack of competence in its convention. Culler states anyone lacking in it, would be quitebaffled if presented with a poem. Like structure, it serves as the underlying system.Arbitrarily it is a set of rules. To be able to interact with poetry, students have to provide themselves with itthe way a poet does. It covers (1) figures of speech covering simile, metaphor, hyperbole, etc. (2) rhythmcovering: syllable, foot, metre (3) meaning related to autonomy, theories developed on the back of the NewCriticism, semiotic theories developed under the influence of the discipline of theoretical linguistics, andinternationalist theories inspired by speech-act theory and Grecian analysis of meaning; and (4) poem formscovering ballad, sonnet, free verse, etc.As the complex whole, poetry cannot be taught wholly at a time. It is broken into smaller parts called units ofcompetence. Through the graded goals, the whole communicative competence will be achieved incrementally.Teaching Poetry by Using CBLT

Abstract

The impact of globalization on teacher education is unprecedented. Changing in the global education landscape has transform the theory-practice nexus in teacher education. Another revolution is needed to transform educational system and prepare graduates for the 21st century realities.  Drawing on the perspectives of the stakeholders and focusing on digital learners are pertinent to bring teacher education onto a higher level of excellence.  In the new millennium, education must focus on the whole child – morally, intellectually, physically, socially and aesthetically.  In meeting the needs of the stakeholders, authentic learning, multi-literacies, innovative thinking and research-based improvements are keys to the 21st century teacher education model.  Authentic learning typically focuses on real-world, complex problems and their solution using role-play exercises, problem-based activities, case studies, and participation in virtual communities of practice. The learning environments are inherently multidisciplinary, thus, authentic learning could be a dynamic tool to enhance learning and to provide opportunities for students to engage in higher-order thinking and active learning.  Leading high performing teacher education system is also critical. Educational leaders need to focus on seeking new innovative models of teacher education, pedagogy and learning, and support services. World-class teacher education program could attract best students. In order to raise teachers and students’ competencies and standards, it is not enough to declare high performing schools; it is critical to develop thinking and well-rounded students who are the future high performing thinkers and innovators.  For the innovation culture to flourish, granting flexibility and autonomy is a way of moving forward.  To gain international recognition, the development of transnational standards for teacher education and training with a multidisciplinary and innovative orientation is critical.  Hence, a country needs a dynamic and resilient teacher education framework or a roadmap for producing quality teachers in the context of sustainable development.

Abstract

This study aims at stimulating students’ criticism when reading and writing. Reading should not be passive since it needs critical thinking to understand the text. What is presented in the text describes a discourse; therefore, the students should communicate with the text to get the points. The discourse relates to context and a text is a media to cover. As the media of the discourse, text encourages students to think critically in order that they can give some comments and inputs after reading. The comments and inputs, then, are manifested in writing so it shows a complex activity which contains students’ comprehension. In other words, writing becomes an indicator to evaluate the result of the reading activities which have been completed before. Semiotics is one important thing. It presents signs and symbols providing certain meanings both explicitly and implicitly. Students create their interpretations with different views which is based on what they think. Critical thinking takes its role in observing the signs and symbols distributed elsewhere in the text. The process of making interpretation is a way to communicate with the text because they are certainly engaged when exploring ideas and connecting among information then developing into a written form. This study takes the students of Pre Advanced Reading and Writing in the third year of Ahmad Dahlan University, Yogyakarta.
