Abstract

Teacher is key variable of in the conception of teaching. His comprehensive knowledge and skills, governs the ways of the teaching implementation. Teachers’ misconception of what to teach and of approach to apply can be a determinant factor for the failure of the teaching and this is true to the teaching of English. The K-13 curriculum, requires the English teachers to teach English by taking genre as unitizing of lesson topics and as the base approach. In line with the teaching conception, the English teachers’ misconception is also regarded as determinant factor of failure in teaching English. To find out if the teaching of English based genre is implemented properly can be done by researching the English teachers’ misconception. Sixt English teachers’ classroom interaction were observed and took the transcript of the interaction as data. The data were analysed by applying the data analysis model proposed by Bogdan and Biddle. The results shows that there is a misconception among the English teachers about the nature of genre and the nature of genre based approach. This misconception is applied to implement the teaching of English and the misconception is reflected in the KD3 and KD4 formulation and in the activities organization which is very far away from the concept of the genre and the approach. Teaching English with genre based approach is not yet implemented properly and the improper implementation is caused by the misconception among the English teachers.       Keywords: misconception, genre, approach, teaching English

Abstract

This study is intended to describe the underlying consideration of the Indonesian EFL learners in choosing attitude verbs to express their propositional attitude towards an object. The data of this study were elicited by asking the students to write their propositional attitudes towards familiar and unfamiliar pictures of objects. The familiarity of an object to the students were suspected to be one of the students’ considerations. The elicited written expressions were identified, classified and compared by using the concept of attitude verbs as the temporary predetermined perspective.  The results of the identification and classification analysis show that   propositional attitude was expressed in three ways: by using verbs of attitude of look, think and hidden verb attitude. The use of look (85%) dominates the other two verbs. The use of hidden verbs attitude occurs 12%, and the verb think is the least occurrence (3%).  While the results of the comparison analysis show that familiarity of an object is not the only factor that the students consider in using attitude verbs. Their ability to think of what they see, that is labelled as psychological factor, and their sensitivity to the social effect of their propositional attitude, that is called as social factor, also influence their consideration in using the attitude verbs. Based on these results, it is concluded that the use of attitude words among the EFL learners is not only a reflection of their linguistic ability but also a reflection of their social sensitivity. Key Words: Attitude verbs, Consideration, EFL learners, Propositional attitude,

Abstract

The in-service training delivered in Pendidikan Profesi Guru (PPG) aims at increasing teacher’s knowledge and skills in teaching English. Language Teaching is dependent on  philosophical assumption on the nature of language and language learning. Language teaching is terminated at using language skillfully in various communicative events. The in-service training is based on a general theory that is implemented through the application of high order thinking (HOT), the innovative instructional design, namely: Problem Based Learning (PBL), and Project Based Learning (PjBL). This study intended to find out the application of HOT, PBL and PJBL. The data of this study were taken from lesson plans (RPP) and its implementation in classroom interaction. The data were analyzed by using the related theory as temporary category of identification, classification and interpretation. The results show that (1) the teachers  are constrained by  the use of operational verbs of HOT in formulating its indicators in KD 3 (knowledge competence), and in KD4 (skills) which resulted in the improper way of teaching English,  (2) the teachers are compelled  by the syntax of PBL and PjBL into improper steps of teaching English, (3) the teachers unconsciously made technology as media as the objective rather than as facilitation to language learning and consequently it turned the teaching of English into teaching about language, like teaching content knowledge such as Biology, Physics, etc, rather than enabling the students to use English communicatively. These findings lead to the conclusion that the teaching of English should be mainly based on the theory of language and the theory of language learning. Other theories imported from other disciplines or from educational psychology should be adapted to the theory of language and language learning.Key Words: Media, Competence, High order thinking, Innovative instruction
