Abstract

Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat ini bertujuan memberdayakan potensi sumber daya SMAN 12 Semarang dengan memanfaatkan fasilitas jaringan internet untuk menunjang proses pembelajaran di kelas. Sebagai satu-satunya SMA negeri di Kecamatan Gunungpati, SMAN 12 Semarang dapat menjadi contoh sekolah dengan kategori berlokasi di daerah pinggiran, yang relatif masih terkendala oleh akses. Perkembangan teknologi sekiranya mampu menjadi solusi untuk meminimalisir kendala tersebut untuk meningkatkan mutu proses pembelajaran di kelas. Dalam upaya memanfaatkan fasilitas internet untuk kegiatan pembelajaran, gerakan nirlaba Jaringan 1000 Guru mencoba untuk menyiasati pemanfaatan internet melalui jejaringan sekolah di tanah air. 1000 Guru terdiri dari putra-putri bangsa yang tengah melanjutkan pendidikan dan bekerja sebagai peneliti di negara-negara maju yang siap berperan sebagai guru relawan/wati melalui telekonferensi. Cara yang ditempuh dalam kegiatan Pengabdian ini adalah mengkoordinasi pihak SMAN 12 (Kepala Sekolah, guru bidang TIK dan guru-guru pengampu bidang studi) dengan pihak 1000 Guru. Prosedur teknis telekonferensi memanfaatkan fasilitas video-conference yang tersedia di internet, yakni Yahoo Messenger, Skype dan Teamviewer, serta projektor LCD dan pelantang suara. Dalam lima bulan masa pengabdian, tiga telekonferensi berhasil diselenggarakan. Sebagai sebuah kegiatan berjejaring dan nirlaba, diharapkan kegiatan telekonferensi antara SMAN 12 dan 1000 Guru tetap berlanjut. Antusiasme siswa dan siswi dalam mengikuti kegiatan telekonferensi ini sangat positif.

Abstract

This paper is based on a study aimed to find out the types of thematic progression patterns the students mostly employ in their recount texts and to examine the coherence of fourth semester students’ recount texts viewed from their thematic progression of the English Department, Universitas Negeri Semarang in the Academic Year of 2015/2016 who took Genre-Based Writing (GBW) class in Rombel 1. This study was a written discourse analysis which was used to figure out the realization of meanings. The findings showed that all of the students employed more than one pattern in their recount texts. They tended to use combination between reiteration (constant), zig-zag (linear), and multiple theme patterns. However, reiteration was the most dominant one. The second dominant pattern was zig-zag pattern. The third pattern found in the students’ recount texts was multiple theme. The analysis also showed that the number of clauses and the thematic progression patterns produced by the students are not equivalent. It means that there are many clauses which are not related to one another. The students often introduced some new themes at the beginning of the clause without any relation with other clauses and they break the well signposted progression of the text. It can be concluded that most of the recount texts produced by the students are not coherent.

Men and women have a different position in society. The men are in the upper position than the women. It can be seen in several aspects of life that men hold more power than women such as in social, economic, and cultural. Men’s position as an upper class of society gives them the power to dominate women. This study aims at investigating men’s domination over women and women’s characters’ reaction to deal with it.

Abstract

Writing competence is one of significant and basic demands for teachers in delivering their profession as educators. Many teachers feel that writing a book is a pride but it is too difficult for them to do. Many factors influence them not to start to write, such as inner motivation, institution supports, ideas, materials, and opportunities. For examples, many of them are lack of motivation to be confident course book writers, their institutions do not support their efforts and facilitate them well, they have no idea what they are going to write, they are not accustomed to provide their own lesson materials for their daily instruction—only copying from books or other resources, and most of them do not have any opportunity at all to write a course book. Therefore to create teacher-writers and produce course books in one school, One Book One Teacher (OBOT) program comes as a solution. OBOT is a program designed for teachers to be a course book writer at schools. Recently we revealed that OBOT has potential activities as an integrated program in preparing teachers to be professional course book writers. In this study, to dig up their responses on course book writing activity and OBOT implementation in their school, we conducted a descriptive survey and observation on 13 teachers in Senior High School Bina Amal Semarang. We distributed questionnaires, tabulated, analyzed and interpreted the data, then drew the conclusion. The research results show that significantly OBOT encouraged teachers to write course book actively and led them to be productive course book writers.
