The need to improve the spoken English of kindergarten students in an international preschool in Surabaya prompted this Classroom Action Research (CAR). It involved the implementation of Form-Focused Instruction (FFI) strategy coupled with Corrective Feedback (CF) in Grammar lessons. Four grammar topics were selected, namely Regular Plural form, Subject Pronoun, Auxiliary Verbs Do/Does, and Irregular Past Tense Verbs as they were deemed to be the morpho-syntax which children acquire early in life based on the order of acquisition in Second Language Acquisition. The results showed that FFI and CF contributed to the improvement of the spoken grammar in varying degrees, depending on the academic performance, personality, and specific linguistic traits of the students. Students with high academic achievement could generally apply the grammar points taught after the FFI lessons in their daily speech. Students who were rather talkative were sensitive to the CF and could provide self-repair when prompted. Those with lower academic performance generally did not benefit much from the FFI lessons nor the CF.Â

Abstract Elementary students of a certain public school in Indonesia had difficulties in learning English. One of the crucial problems was learning English vocabulary. In an attempt to help the students learn and improve English vocabulary, the researchers decided to use CAR to teach English vocabulary with local cultural content materials. The aim of this study was to investigate how the teaching of English vocabulary with local cultural content materials contributed to the improvement of the studentsâ€™ English vocabulary mastery. The topics covered in the materials were selected based on schemata theory. Vocabulary learning process was done through several activities provided in the materials: classroom and outside vocabulary learning. The results showed that the teaching of local cultural content materials have contributed to the improvement of the Elementary studentsâ€™ vocabulary mastery. The schematic knowledge found in the familiar topics has aroused the studentsâ€™ interest and motivation in learning English vocabulary. Students who were more familiar with the topics could respond to the vocabulary learning better than those who were not familiar with. The vocabulary mastery was more successful only if the students participated in both classroom and outside vocabulary learning process. Keywords: Vocabulary Mastery, Vocabulary Improvement, Local Cultural Content Materials, Vocabulary Learning, Schemata

The use of English among Indonesian millennials has been more widespread especially because of exposure to English has been so massive to secondary school in urban areas. There has been a concern that the increasing use of English might diminish their Indonesian language use and cultural identity.Â This study aims to investigate the roles of English on satellite TV programs and social media posts for Indonesian millennials, their language preference, and the consequences of language preference on their national identity. A concurrent embedded mixed methods design collecting quantitative and qualitative data was carried out through short essays and closed-questionnaires. Both questions of essay writing and closed-questionnaires were sent to students of private high schools in two big cities (Jakarta and Surabaya), aged 18 to 20 years old online. The questionnaire items were in multiple-choice and the short paragraph essay explained the importance of TV programs and social media posts for learning English. After being scrutinized, 989 respondentsâ€™ essay responses were analysed. The findings showed that TV programs and social media posts were claimed to have important roles of English learning resources. Although they practiced English through social media, they felt that they still kept themselves as Indonesians when using English on social media

Other instruments were Foreign Language Class Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) questionnaire and interviews. The results showed that the students had slightly high anxiety level; and there was an invert relationship between the anxiety level and the speaking scores. Several major factors that cause anxiety among the students have been identified, and it was also seen that anxiety has its most negative impacts on students’ communicative and interactive ability.

In modern life, people cannot avoid persuasion from advertisements. Advertisers employ techniques to make claims for their products. The advertisers promise and claim in such a way that consumers may buy the products even when they do not really need them. People may disagree with and question the promises and claims of advertisements. The fact is that more consumers including students believe promises and claims in the advertisements than those who question them. Consumers who question the promises and claims of advertisements argue that advertising is childish, dumb, and a bunch of lies. This article discusses the language of advertising and how advertisers persuade and argue. To clarify the discusion, examples of claims used in the advertisements are given. The paper is ended with discussion of using advertisements for language teaching materials

The learning of culture is unavoidable in the learning of English since cultural values are embedded in the body of language. In order to communicate effectively, language learners need to be culturally aware of what their utterances might convey. As one of important factors in successful language learning process, English course books should foster English cultural issues and support learners to be culturally competence. The study investigated cultural contents of the inner-circle English countries in an English course book entitled Interlanguage XII, which has been approved by Badan Standar Nasional Pendidikan (BSNP). The inner-circle English cultural contents were investigated through the theory of four senses of culture by Adaskou et al (1990). The all four senses of culture were included in Interlanguage XII. The results indicated that the highest percentage is the presence of pragmatic sense, while the least sense was the sociological sense. The results also showed that even though the all four sense were present, the frequency among those four was not balance. This implies the aim and the emphasis of the course book in the foreign language learning; the course book emphasize more on the use of language instead of its grammatical and structural skill.

Considerations in developing and using CAT to assess students' proficiency in English as a foreign language in Indonesia Ignatius Harjanto; Davy Budiono

The English curriculum for Secondary Schools in Indonesia requires the students to acquire ability in accomplishing tasks adequately, to find solutions, and to realize them in real situations. Such objectives can be achieved if, among others, teachers are qualified. This means that the graduates of teacher training colleges (TTCs) must be competent in the field having knowledge and skills. In case of English education, they must be proficient in the four English skills. To ensure their English proficiency, a test administered institutionally, which varies from one college to another, is not enough. A national test on English proficiency to the graduating students of TTCs is needed so that a national standard of proficiency for teachers can be measured. However, administering a national English proficiency test is expensive and cumbersome as well. A solution to the problem is the application of computer adaptive tests (CAT). This article argues that CAT enables the students to measure their own level of English proficiency inexpensively. Ideas on the rationale, application, and impacts of standardized proficiency test using CAT on students with learning English difficulties in regular schools are shared.
