Abstract

This is the qualitative study that examines the students perception of benefits and concerns of tableau used in EFL classroom. Tableau actually is one of the process drama techniques which allows the students to create a living picture using their body, gesture, and facial expression. Tableau is theoretically useful for students to be engaged in reading because it offers all reading strategies. However, there has been few available studies regarding to tableau, especially in EFL classroom context. It was then compelling for conducting the study of how students perceive of their experience in doing tableau in their classroom. The participants were 25 students in one of the EFL classroom in Indonesia. These participants were engaged in doing tableau for three-time meetings. After they experienced doing tableau in their classroom, they were asked to write a reflective journal to know their perceptions in regards to the benefits and concerns of tableau. Moreover, four participants were interview to get deeper understanding of their perception of tableau. The results from reflective journals and interviews revealed that the students perceived several benefits were gained after doing tableau, such as it helps them create sensory images, gain more vocabulary knowledge, deepen characters feeling, learn collaboratively, provide an alternative learning, and creating a fun atmosphere in the classroom. However, they also perceived several concerns about tableau, such as it takes much time, some ineffective groupworks still happens, and they also reported that they found some students misinterpreted the text in tableau.

Abstract

Textbook is one of the important elements in English language teaching. As the importance of textbook, it should reflect on the students’ needs. However, many studies revealed that most textbooks, especially ESP textbook were not satisfying and did not meet students’ needs. There were not many studies about ESP textbook evaluation in Indonesian context. The present study explored about to what extent the materials in the ESP textbook used by English teacher in teaching ESP in a particular vocational school majoring in hospitality meet the language needs in hospitality industry. Questionnaires were distributed to 24 students majoring in hospitality to explore about their needs, wants, and lacks. To confirm the students’ needs in actual workplace, semi-structured interview sessions were conducted to hotel employers. The results from questionnaire and interviews were used as the criteria to evaluate the textbook together with textbook evaluation criteria. The results revealed that the English language skills, especially English-speaking skill was important for the students from hospitality program. There were 21 hospitality competencies that needed English skills in their implementation discovered in this study. However, the materials in the textbook did not accommodate the students’ needs to improve English speaking skill. Furthermore, the textbook covered only five out of 21 hospitality competencies that were needed by hospitality students.
