Abstract

This quantitative study is an attempt to estimate the intra-rater reliability ofstudent self-assessment of their speaking performances and to find outwhether there is significant difference between the self-assessment intra-raterreliability of speaking performance without training and that of with training.The rater training used is adapted from the model developed by Herman,Aschbacher and Winters (1992). This study which employed equivalent timesamplesdesign collected data by asking 45 students to conduct selfassessmenton their six speaking performances. It was found that the range ofrs was 0.611 to 0.752 which means the consistency within students inassessing their own speaking performance was moderate high to high. Theintra-rater reliability of the self assessment after the treatments is higher thanthat of other experience being available in the absence of the treatment. It isconcluded that rater training improves the intra-rater reliability. Therefore, itis suggested to train the students on how to assess before employing selfassessmentin speaking instructions.

Abstract

A text has an almost infinite number of possible interpretations. And theinterpretation themselves, declares some deconstructionists, are just as creativeand important as the text being interpreted. This study is an attempt to explainhow the interpretations on Obamas speech make meanings in the way they do.Apart from the realization of experiential, interpersonal and textual meanings aswell as the field, tenor and mode and their context of culture, it is revealed thatText 1 under this investigation illustrates the ideological claim that the personalappeal of an orator, appeals to the emotions of the audiences through theappropriate choice of themes and metaphors of the oration, and appeals to logicor reason should be possessed by a shrewd orator and politician, who is alwaysable to put his audiences into his frame of mind everywhere he delivers hisspeeches. Whereas Text 2 illustrates the ideological claim that despite apersonal power of persuasion you possess, one is tempted to ask how an officialvisit means anything. While it is true that you spent a considerable years in acity during your childhood, your statement should not be overly emphasized,analyzed nor treated as anything but political rhetoric aimed at further boostingthe vivacious intellectual crowd. As readers of texts, we need to develop skillsto be able to make explicit the ideological positions encoded.

Abstract

Writing is a skill for the students to express their ideas in written form thatinvolves the mastery of all elements in the target language: as grammar,content, organization, vocabulary, punctuation, spelling and mechanics. Itneeds a complex process. Consequently, the students may have difficultiesto do so.The objectives of my study are to find out how the communicativepurpose of a recount text written by the students is achieved, how recounttexts written in terms of functional stages, the features of lexico -grammatical problems, and to explain why the students write recount text inthe way they do. The problems of the study are therefore: how is thecommunicative purpose of recount texts written by the students of "SMP N"2 Purworejo?; how are recount texts written in terms of functional stages?;what are the features of lexico - grammatical problems faced by thestudents?; and, why do the students write recount texts in the way they do?The approach used in this study is qualitative.This study primarily dealswith the communicative purpose, functional stages and grammaticalproblems on writing recount made by the students of "SMP N "2Purworejo. The analysis result proved that the communicative purpose is toretell their past experience and they could write the functional stages onwriting recount well. Based on the data and the interview, I conclude thatthe 8th graders of "SMP N "2 Purworejo in the academic year 2009/2010had lexico-grammatical problems in writing recount. Those problemsoccurred because most of them made overgeneralization errors andthey had limited vocabulary.

Abstract

The fourth semester students of the English department of Muria Kudus University are suggested to take Academic Field Trip in order to provide the studentssome experiences outside of their campus. By observing the English Departmentstudents interactions with English speakers from other countries, I expect that I can gainclear illustrations on their abilities in maintaining good conversation by applyingappropriate speech functions in the conversation. The main purposes of the study aredescribing the speech functions chosen by the students and the foreigners, explaining therole relation enactment among them, and also describing the contribution of speechfunctions in language education. The data of this study are transcriptions of the studentsand the foreigners oral communication. I classify the speech functions produced by theparticipants into the speech functions classes introduced by Eggins and Slade. The resultsof the study over the four conversations show that the opening speech functions areproduced mostly by the students; it indicates that the students play as the initiators. Theforeigners show their respect and appreciation to the students as they respond to thestudent initiations by producing more responding and continuing moves. The number ofturns and moves produced by the students and foreigners are quite similar; it indicatesthat both of the participants get the same chance to take their roles. The foreigners astourists show they interest to some tourism objects by describing to the students someobjects they have visited and by comparing to their own country. Learning languagecannot be separated from its culture, therefore speech functions and culturalunderstanding should be taught in the classroom as part of language discourse.
