Abstract

Learning style is one of the factors contributing to students’ success on second or foreign language learning. This present research attempted to identify various learning styles used in learning English by administering Perceptual Learning Style Preference Questionnaire ( PLSPQ ) for 121 EFL students at English literature study program. The result of descriptive analysis showed that the overall students’ preferred learning style was found to be auditory (M= 37.5, SD = 4.48). Based on gender differences, a majority of male students were auditory students ( M = 38.6, SD = 4.27)  and most of the female students were observed to have tendency to be in the category of kinaesthetic students (M = 3.69, SD = .49). The individual learning style became the least frequent style used by the students ( M = 35.2, SD = 7.53). The findings contribute to the improvement of teaching practice quality. Educators are recommended to employ various teaching styles and design variety of activities that enable students to activate their own learning styles more effectively.Keywords: learning style, Second Language Acquisition (SLA), Perceptual Learning Style Preference Questionnaire ( PLSPQ )

Abstract

Until recent decades, the effort on diminishing students’ feeling of anxiety and less self-efficacy toward the writing activities in academic writing course still becomes a great concern for the teachers or practitioners of writing skill especially when dealing with students from multilingual society. These students, who learn English as a foreign language, often demonstrate the influence of their first language when composing a writing, even in a simple paragraph. Facing this situation, the teachers are forced to give attention more to students’ grammatical composition, and as a result of this most of the students give excessive attention only to revise the grammatical mistakes. Based on this situation, they develop “mental block” towards writing and have less interest in writing. To deal with this situation, many studies suggest that teachers need to foster students’ motivation since it is as crucial as developing students’ writing skills through practice. Hence, this paper aims to describe the effectiveness of giving journal writing task and providing comments to students’ writing in the task as a simple but useful way to ignite students’ motivation in writing. The object of the research is the students of academic writing course in Faculty of Cultural Studies of Mulawarman University Samarinda. List of questions were given to the students after they experienced the task to figure out how much the task and the comments influence students’ motivation in writing

Gender stereotypes are strengthened by patriarchy system which includes judgments of surrounding society, and forms two categories; masculinity (men stereotypes) and femininity (women stereotypes) which referred from the different biological characteristics among men and women, to empower men and disempower women in society.

This research was designed as a qualitative research, and the theory of patriarchy by Allan G. Johnson was used as the ground theory. The results of the research showed that patriarchy system and its four elements such as male dominance, male identification, male centeredness, and obsession with control are promoted in the society which is portrayed in the Zemeckis’ Beowulf film (2007). Although the two female main characters of the film live in a society which is patriarchal, but they do not fall into the patriarchy system and the gender stereotypes that are imposed on them as subordinate women, instead they challenge and break the social systems. Key words: Beowulf film, gender stereotypes, main characters, patriarchy, women portrayal.  ABSTRAK Sistem patriarki yang membentuk stereotip gender dan isu-isu terkait lainnya, mudah ditemui dalam kehidupan sehari-hari secara sadar atau tidak. Stereotip gender dilingkupi dan diperkuat oleh sistem patriarki yang mencakup anggapan-anggapan dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat yang mana membentuk dua kategori, yakni; maskulinitas (stereotip pria) dan feminitas (stereotip wanita). Anggapan-anggapan berdasarkan dua kategori gender tersebut mengacu pada perbedaan karakterisitk pria dan wanita secara biologis demi menguatkan kuasa serta wewenang pria, dan melemahkan peran dan posisi wanita dalam masyarakat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis penggambaran sistem patriarki yang terdapat di dalam film Zemeckis yang berjudul Beowulf. Penelitian ini bertujuan pula untuk menganalisis penggambaran pemeran-pemeran utama wanita yang mematahkan sistem sosial patriarki yang tergambar di dalam film tersebut. Penelitian ini dirancang sebagai sebuah penelitian yang bersifat kualitatif dengan menggunakan teori patriarki yang dikemukakan oleh Allan G. Johnson sebagai dasar teori. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa sistem patriarki dan keempat elemennya, seperti; dominasi laki-laki, identifikasi pada laki-laki, keterpusatan pada laki-laki, dan obsesi terhadap penguasaan, digalakkan dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat yang tergambar dalam film Beowulf yang disutradarai oleh Zemeckis pada tahun 2007 tersebut. Meskipun kedua pemeran utama perempuan dalam film tersebut hidup di tengah-tengah masyarakat yang menganut paham sosial patriarki, namun mereka tidak jatuh ataupun terpengaruh oleh sistem patriarki dan stereotip gender yang beranggapan bahwa mereka adalah perempuan bawahan yang mestinya tunduk terhadap sistem-sistem sosial tersebut. Malahan mereka menantang dan menghancurkan tatanan sistem-sistem sosial tersebut. Kata kunci: Film Beowulf, stereotip gender, tokoh utama, patriarki, penggambaran perempuan
