Abstract

There are two main purposes navigated in this study; first of all, it was carried out to investigate the teacher-student relationship; secondly, it was also conducted to find out whether there was a correlation between teacher-student relationship and English teaching-learning process. A number of 14 teachers and 43 students participated in this study; they are from two publish junior high schools in Aceh, Indonesia. Questionnaires for the students and interviews with the teachers were used to discover the influence of the relationship between English teachers and students, and the problems that students faced during their interactions with the teachers. There were twenty-two items in the questionnaire and five questions in the interviews that the participants needed to answer. The collected data from the questionnaire were then analysed by using a Likert scale and the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, meanwhile, the data from the interviews were analysed by following the stages of Miles and Huberman‘s(1994) model. In the first junior high school, a significant correlation appeared between the teacher-student relationship and teaching-learning process, with the raw score of 0.745 that refers to a high correlation. The tcount was higher than the ttable (4.784≥2.100). However, at second junior high school, had no significant correlation detected between the two variables with the raw score of 0,401 that referred to moderate correlation, where tcount was lower than ttable (2.004≤2.097). This research is expected to have a beneficial impact on the English teaching-learning process especially in the areas of the two schools, where this study took place, as well as the teachers and educators from other institutions spread in Aceh and Indonesia in general.

Abstract

Engaging students to participate in productive learning is a prerequisite for successful instruction. Teachers as instructional leaders should be creative and proactive in finding the best ways to enable effective learning to take place. One of the most well-known strategies is the use of appropriate ‘questioning’ during the instructional process. Teachers’ questioning strategies can encourage learning, but at the same time, they can also discourage learning when they are not carried out effectively. As teachers’ ways of posing questions are paramount for effective learning, it is timely to research this issue, teachers’ ways of asking questions during classroom instruction, and their students’ responses. The participants were two English teachers and their students at a secondary school in Aceh Province, Indonesia. The data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and questionnaires. The study found that teachers used various questioning strategies, such as designing icebreaking activities and giving simple quizzes as attention grabbers. In addition, some types of questioning strategies, such as repetition, simplification, decomposition, structuring the questions, reacting to the students’ answers (giving a reward, complimenting, and motivating the students), using native language, and giving students some wait time to think about the answers were among the many strategies applied in the classroom. These questioning strategies were considered effective by the teachers and students in the study to promote productive language learning.

Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study investigates the categorization of cultural materials and the sense of the culture of two "Bahasa Inggris 2017 updated edition" English textbooks for grades X and XI in senior high school in Indonesian secondary education. This study examines which cultures are exemplified in the textbooks and how they are characterized. The study's design follows a qualitative descriptive design through content analysis. Both the "categories of culture" approach of Cortazzi and Jin (1999) and the "sense of culture" approach of Adaskou, Britten, and Fahsi (1990) were used in the present study. The data showed that the Bahasa Inggris tenth-grade textbook focused more on source culture instead of the target culture and international culture. Nonetheless, in the Bahasa Inggris eleventh-grade textbook, the target culture is more dominant than the source and international cultures. In both books, the pragmatic sense dominated the aesthetic, semantic, and social sense. This study also uncovered an imbalance in the number of cultural categories exhibited. This study proposes that writers of EFL textbooks should accommodate a balanced representation of source culture, target culture, and international culture, as well as provide an excellent four-cultural sense in the textbooks.ABSTRAKPenelitian ini menyelidiki kategorisasi bahan budaya dan pemahaman budaya dari dua buku teks bahasa Inggris "Bahasa Inggris 2017 edisi terbaru" untuk kelas X dan XI di sekolah menengah atas dalam pendidikan menengah di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menguji budaya mana yang diwakili dalam buku teks dan bagaimana budaya tersebut dikarakterisasi. Desain penelitian ini mengikuti desain deskriptif kualitatif melalui analisis konten. Pendekatan "kategori budaya" dari Cortazzi dan Jin (1999) serta pendekatan "pemahaman budaya" dari Adaskou, Britten, dan Fahsi (1990) digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Data menunjukkan bahwa buku teks bahasa Inggris kelas sepuluh lebih fokus pada budaya sumber daripada budaya target dan budaya internasional. Namun, dalam buku teks bahasa Inggris kelas sebelas, budaya target lebih dominan daripada budaya sumber dan budaya internasional. Pada kedua buku tersebut, pemahaman pragmatik mendominasi pemahaman estetika, semantik, dan sosial. Penelitian ini juga menemukan ketidakseimbangan dalam jumlah kategori budaya yang ditampilkan. Penelitian ini mengusulkan bahwa penulis buku teks bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing sebaiknya menyertakan representasi yang seimbang dari budaya sumber, budaya target, dan budaya internasional, serta menyediakan pemahaman budaya yang baik dalam empat aspek dalam buku teks.How to Cite: Akmal, S., Nashriyah, Fauza, N., Chamisah, Syahabuddin, K.
