Abstract

This study aims to reveal the coherence of 19 analytical exposition texts written by the fourth semester students of English Department of UNNES through analysis of schematic structure, thematic choices, and thematic developments. Coherence is an essential component to create a make-sense text. Thus, it is very important to know the students’ competency in writing a good text. This study applied a qualitative approach. It employed theories of schematic structure based on stages proposed by Gerot and Wignell (1995), thematic choices from Gerot and Wignell (1995) and thematic developments by Eggins (2004). The findings indicated that students preferably used topical Theme (67.79%) and textual Theme (30.42%). In addition, in terms of thematic developments, Theme Reiteration is the commonest pattern applied by the students. Based on the findings, students’ texts were less coherence because there were several texts having an incomplete thesis at the beginning of the paragraph and one text leaving 1 out of 3 stages of exposition text. Furthermore, the over-use of Theme Reiteration might show that the students’ writing skill is low because they could not elaborate their ideas through various methods. In short, the students could be regarded as novice writers. Keywords: analytical exposition; coherence; schematic structure; thematic choices; thematic development

Abstract

This paper is about the teaching of English. It takes into account the global role this language gains today, to reflect on how it should be taught. The main objective of it is to defend a current tendency concerning the teaching of English. In the pursuit of an appropriate pedagogy to teach English, I propose the focus on non-native speaker, since we undestand that English is a world language, spoken by a great number of people, from different cultures, what has recreated this language in many aspects. That is why this language should not be only taught based on the hegemonic cultures. The reflection proposed here is, especially, anchored on Freire´s (1996) ideas on education, mainly when he defends learner’s autonomy. Thus, to teach English through an apropriate pedagogy, teachers should allow students to have ownership of it as well, but starting from a local perspective, avoiding, this way, bad feelings on the part of students.
