Abstract

Abstract: This research portrays the possibility of the computer used in the EFL classrooms, particularly in senior high school which focuses on the students’ and teachers’ perception on the use of computer in EFL classroom. The data from interview were transcribed and used to support the data from questionnaire. As an alternative learning device, computer helped the students to reach their goals in learning English, i.e.: the limited mastery of  vocabulary, the lack of tenses  knowledge, focused on speaking and listening, the learning program was too difficult to follow, no speech media (like microphone or headset), no equal chance in using computer because they had to share one computer with the whole class. For teacher, such strategy gave a different experience of way of teaching, a more creative method and material, a fun learning for the students, and many exposures of communicative dialogue.  Moreover, using computer in EFL classroom provided with some difficulties associated with the EFL situation, such as a large class sizes and mixed ability classrooms.Keywords:  Computer, Perception,  EFL Classroom

Abstract

This study employed classroom action research and was conducted in two cycles. The main data were students’ written texts taken from the first cycle and the second cycle, and the teacher’s field notes. The texts were analyzed by examining the schematic structure and the linguistic features of an analytical exposition text. To measure students’ critical thinking, the texts were examined using the Critical Thinking Value Rubric developed by the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AACU). The findings showed that there are positive implications for the application of high-level questioning in students’ critical thinking skills. Furthermore, in comparison between the data gained in the first cycle and the second cycle, it shows that after the implementation of high-level questioning there are some improvements in all aspects of the critical thinking criteria such as issue, evidence, the influence of context, and conclusion based on the value rubric. Although there are some improvements, in terms of delivering the issue, and showing evidence, the students still have difficulties in explaining and elaborating their ideas clearly.Keywords: analytical exposition text; critical thinking; high-level questioning.
