It employed factorial design 2x2 because it employed more than one independent variable; TPS, CIRC and one dependent variable.The experimental group was given experiences of learning by TPS technique and the control group by CIRC technique. The study was accomplished in the academic year 2013/2014. The samples were two classes, class A, and class C. Class A was the experimental group and class C was the control one. The result of the study proved that both of the techniques were effective to enhance descriptive text writing for students of different levels of motivation. However TPS was more effective than CIRC.

Abstract

Formulaic expressions make students become fluent and native-like in English speaking so that formulaic expressions must be introduced a lot to the students in conversational texts of English textbooks. The current study aims at investigating the forms, frequency of occurrence, accuracy, and appropriateness of formulaic expressions in conversational texts of the tenth grader’s English textbooks. This study is a discourse analysis, particularly a text analysis. The objects of the study are fourteen conversational texts taken from the tenth grade’s English textbooks. The results of the study show that there are four forms of formulaic expressions identified in the conversational texts. Moreover, the most frequent form of formulaic expressions in the conversational texts is inserts. It is followed by lexical bundles, idiomatic phrases, and free combinations of verb + particle. Besides, idiomatic phrases and free combinations of verb + particle occur accurately, while lexical bundles and inserts occur both accurately and inaccurately in the conversational texts. In addition, the formulaic expressions appear appropriately and inappropriately in the conversational texts.  Based on these findings, there are many conversational texts that do not sound natural; consequently, there must be some revisions.

Abstract

This present study is aimed at explaining the mood realization of the learning activities in the grade VII English textbook published by the Ministry of Education and Culture. It is designed within the framework of qualitative research and the method is discourse analysis. The result shows that the learning activities give more imperative mood than the others. Afterwards, speaking skill is included more than the other skills.To achieve communicative activity, the good balance between indicative and imperative mood should be realized in the process of teaching and learning English. Although teacher has a powerful authority and that is natural since teacher is the leader in the classroom, the process of giving and demanding information between teacher and students could be realised to achieve communicative activity. Subsequently, despite the percentage of speaking is the highest, listening has the least percentage in this textbook. Listening is importance in our class since English is the students’ foreign language. Therefore, it is essential that listening activities should be included in a balanced portion with speaking activities in order to understand spoken discourse.
