Abstract

This study aimed to discover the code switching found in impromptu speeches of the Grade 11 students of UM Peñaplata College. Specifically, the study sought to determine and describe the common words used in code switching in the impromptu speeches of the Grade 11 students and to analyze the types and functions of the common words they code switched. Since there have been no studies related to CS in the Island Garden City of Samal, the researchers are urged to conduct this kind of research. In addition to this, the researchers also want to know the role of CS in the academe since English language proficiency is highly necessary especially in an English classroom. The participants of this study are from UM Peñaplata College, specifically the Grade 11 Senior High School students. Among the 78 respondents, there were 67 purposively selected which were subjected to Textual Analysis. Analysis revealed four most common code-switching words committed in impromptu speeches. These are ahm, ah, kanang, and ay. The types of these code-switching words are intersentential, intra-sentential, intra-word, and tag-switching. Also, the functions of these code-switched words are fillers, hesitations, discourse markers, literary translation, and repetition of words. With these, language educators should continuously find strategies to suit the ever-changing nature of the curriculum and handle the weakness evident in the teaching of the English language.

Abstract

Studies examining the reflective teaching practice of pre-service teachers in the context of EFL are still under-discussed as in Indonesia. Therefore, to fill this void, this study was conducted to identify the reflection of EFL pre-service teachers during teaching practice at schools. In practicing teaching, pre-service teachers face several challenges such as factors that influence the success of prospective teachers in teaching practice, lack of evaluation, and problem-solving in the classrooms with students. Therefore, through this research, the researchers try to examine the reflective teaching practice of an EFL pre-service teacher. This is a qualitative study using thematic analysis to analyse the data. The data were gathered from interviews and teaching journals. The finding shows that during the teaching practice, the participant’s experiences were reflected through five dimensions, i.e., philosophy, principles, theory, practice, and beyond practice. Overall, the results show that the participant’s beyond reflection remained the same with what she did in practice, and the themes that have been revealed from her reflections including the need to do a lot of preparation, having a variety of alternatives to minimize problems in the classroom, and the importance of students' success in understanding the material. The findings, therefore, are expected to provide insight to other EFL pre-service teachers to have reflective practices while conducting teaching practice.

Abstract

Reflective practice has been a prominent issue on English language teaching since it involves a deliberate action to improve one’s professional knowledge, skills, and awareness. One way to encourage reflective practice for EFL teachers is to form an online academic group. The current study examines how the discussion in an online academic writing for publication group promotes reflective thinking. This study involved two EFL teachers who participated and learned academic writing in a weekly online meeting on WhatsApp to reflect on their study. The online group discussion was recorded and coded according to the topics they talked about in the group. The topics served as a measure of critical reflectivity. Findings indicated that the EFL teachers talked over and studied academic writing in terms of how to prepare an eligible manuscript for international publication. They also discussed the problems or issues they encountered during writing a research article for publication. The issues were concerned with the research topics, writing an introduction section, difficulties in reporting the research method and procedure, and the use of academic words in their writing, to mention a few. Those issues have an implication to the difficulty in preparing an eligible manuscript and in publishing their articles This study calls for further initiations to develop reflective practice of Indonesian EFL lecturers through a series of intensive academic writing for publication purposes workshops. The foci of the workshops can address the issues on developing each section of the research article or selecting academic words suitable for writing the paper so that the process of undergoing the international publication can be less demanding.

Abstract

The performance of a wider range of vocabulary mastery in IELTS speaking test is imperative to escalate the band score achievement. The present study sought to investigate the teaching of idioms in an IELTS preparation program with regards to the kinds of idioms taught in the class, how the students used them during the mock post test, and whether the use of idioms interfere with the grammatical accuracy. The study was in urgency to be conducted with regards to the absence of the teaching of idioms for IELTS at least in the past five years. The data were collected from the recorded speaking performance of five students at intermediate level of English, in both mock pretest and post test to see if there were some alterations in the predicted test score and a deep interview with one candidate to have strengthen the arguments. The results showed significant differences in the students’ performance of speaking in pretest and after they were taught idioms despite some less accurate grammar in the sentence productions. The findings of the study can have potential pedagocical implications for teachers of IELTS preparation classes to incorporate the teaching of idioms in either speaking or vocabulary lessons.

Abstract

A textbook is expected to cover all of the teaching necessities as well as educational values contained in the curriculum. Conversely, many scholars or researchers in the study of gender representation portrayed English language textbooks tend to have gender-biased in terms of gender representation in which males are represented more than females in many aspects. Hence, investigating how males and females are represented in Indonesian EFL textbooks is highly beneficial to be explored to clarify and update the finding based on the previous studies. The concern of this current study is to investigate gender representation in the Indonesian EFL textbook for vocational school students by using the framework proposed by (Amerian & Esmaili, 2014). The analysis of the data is based on critical discourse analysis and content analysis. Surprisingly, congruent with most previous studies, the finding reflects that there is inequality in terms of gender representation in which females are underrepresented in the textbook. The finding of this recent study pinpoints the depiction of how males and females are represented and depicted in the Indonesian EFL textbook, as a result, it is expected to convey the awareness of scholars, educators, textbook writers or designers, and policymakers as well related to this issue. Then, it is still highly suggested for scholars or researchers in future studies exploring gender representation in Indonesian EFL textbooks by using other books or other levels of education to evaluate the development of this issue.

Abstract

This study aimed at examining the extent of the use of teacher-themed movies in preparing Indonesian pre-service English teachers’ readiness to teach and to see the perceived effects of movies in preparing the pre-service English teachers’ readiness to teach. This study employed a qualitative design with observations and interviews as the methods of collecting data. Two classes were observed, Introduction to Education and Teaching Profession classes. Interviews were conducted with, as the participants, six pre-service English teachers and two lecturers of the observed classes. The observation results indicated that movies were used to relate theories and real teaching practices. Through Thematic Analysis of the interview data, the study found that movies could inspire several pre-service English teachers. Movies minimised the gap between theories and practice. Movies helped pre-service teachers to see potential problems and obstacles when teaching in a real class. Informed of the generally positive impacts of the use of movies, it is suggested that teacher education programmes encourage more widespread use of movies to teach teaching-related classes to better prepare pre-service teachers for various classroom situations.
