Abstract

The main purpose of the study is to find out what character values are integrated in reading section of the English e-book of Senior High School and in which part of the English e-book of Senior High School the character values are realized. In order to obtain the objective of the study, I did several steps. I selected the e-book and then the reading section was selected. After selecting the reading section, the character education values integrated in the reading section were identified. Then, I identified the character education values in the reading section components; whether they are integrated in reading texts or reading exercises. From the eighteen character values formulated by The Indonesian Ministry of National Education 2010, there are only seventeen of them covered in reading section of the e-book. These seventeen values are honesty, tolerance, democracy, hard work, creativity, environmental caring, social caring, discipline, patriotism, nationalism, respect achievement, loving peace, reading habit, independence, religious, curiosity, and friendly/communicative. One character value that is not covered in reading sections is responsibility. All the character values found are covered in both components of the reading sections. After analyzing, I would like to suggest for the next researcher who attempts to do the similar research as I do. He/she should analyze the textbook which is recommended by the Book Centre (Pusbuk) of the National Education Ministry (Depdiknas) so that his/ her research will have a great possibility to be used as a consideration to select a good textbook for teaching and learning processes at schools.

The subject of this study was VIIIA students of SMP N 24 Semarang. In this research, I used tests and questionnaires to collect the data.

In conclusion, the use of fairy tail video as a medium worked well in writing class, especially for the VIIIA of SMP N 24 Semarang. The students also said that they were not bored during the teaching and learning process. They felt fun and their motivation to write the narrative texts increased after using Video.  Based on the results above, Video can be an interesting and appropriate medium to teach writing.

This research also reveal the significant difference in the achievement between students who are taught using digital storytelling and those who are taught using conventional technique. In order to achieve those objectives, I conducted an experimental study. The population of this study was the eighth graders of SMPN 1 Grobogan. The experimental group was VIII-1 and the control group was VIII-2. The experimental group was taught using digital storytelling and the control group was taught using conventional technique. The result after a treatment was given shows that the mean of experimental group was higher than the control group. Therefore, there is a significant difference in students’ achievement that was taught using digital storytelling and using conventional technique. It is concluded the use of digital storytelling as visual aid can improve students’ mastery in writing narrative.

Abstract

This is a descriptive qualitative study aiming at finding out what speech acts and gambits found in the conversation models of Look Ahead 2 (an English textbook for senior high school grade XI published by Erlangga). This study was conducted in line with the important roles of gambits in spoken communication.Searle (1969) classified speech acts into five: directives, commissives, representatives, declaratives and expressive with further sub-classified by van Ek (1998) into six functions and 132 sub-functions. These speech act functions have become the basis of English curriculum in Indonesia. The speech acts realizations in utterances are usually hedged by gambits or discourse markers aiming at downgrading, upgrading, intensifying or avoiding a Face Threatening Act. The data were collected from the textbook Look Ahead 2 written by Th. M. Sudarwati and Eudia Grace. The study was focused only on five speech acts: asking for an opinion, giving opinion, agreeing to an opinion, disagreeing to an opinion, and giving suggestion/advice. Therefore, the data taken were only the sentences which indicate those five speech acts.16 conversations were taken as the data.  There were 38 clauses belonging to 11 speech act functions specified for XI grade students. The speech acts found were: asking for an opinion, giving opinion, expressing satisfaction, dissatisfaction, giving suggestion, warning, expressing relief, pain, sorrow, anger, and annoyance. There were 34 gambits found in five speech acts: four gambits were found in asking for an opinion, six in giving opinion, five in agreeing to an opinion, ten in disagreeing to an opinion, nine in giving suggestion/advice. Of the five speech acts understudy, there were three types of gambits namely opening, linking, and responding gambits. There were nine gambits belong to opening gambit, three gambits belong to linking gambit, and 22 data for responding gambit.The finding indicated that among 14 speech acts required by the curriculum, 11 speech acts were found but the other three were not. They are expressing pleasure, expressing love and expressing embarrassment. The gambits found in five specific speech acts were used appropriately based on both Keller’s and Dörnyei’s classifications. Among three types of gambits, opening gambit was the most frequently used (52.9%). Responding gambit was the second frequently used (38.2%), and the least frequently used gambit was the linking gambit (8.8%).
