Abstract

The research aimed to analyze the realization of thematic structure and progression in English and Indonesian exposition texts and explain the contribution of thematic structure and progression to the cohesion and coherence in English and Indonesian exposition texts. The research also aimed toexplain the differences and similarities between English and Indonesian in terms of coherence and schematic structure of the exposition text. Descriptive-qualitative design was used in this research considering of the objectives of the research. The sample of the research was taken from collecting English and Indonesian exposition texts written by undergraduate students of UPI. This study used the theory of Theme system developed by Halliday (1994), Eggins (1994; 2004), the theory of thematic progression proposed by Eggins (1994; 2004 as the framework to analyze the data) and the theory of coherence analysis proposed by Thornbury (2005). To figure out the differences and similarities between English and Indonesian exposition texts, it can be seen from the level of coherence (level of clause, sentence, and paragraph) and schematic structure of text. In level of clause, it can be seen from thematic structure and progression analysis. The result showed that the students write effectively orient the reader to what their texts are about either in English or Indonesian texts. Students used reiteration as much as zigzag pattern in their English in order to maintain the focus and reinforced the arguments in their texts but in Indonesian texts, students more reinforced the argument than maintain the focus to the arguments in their Indonesian texts. In level of sentence, the finding showed that English texts tended to use deductive style rather than inductive and mix style. While in Indonesian text, the use of inductive and mix types of paragraphs in Indonesian texts were more than in English texts. In level of paragraph, multiple paragraphs were dominant in students’ English texts but some Indonesian texts were managed unwell. Concerning in term of schematic structure, most of English texts consisted of the three generic structures of exposition texts but there were some Indonesian texts that was not given the reiteration or conclusion at the last paragraph.

Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of using Coop-Dis-Q (Cooperative-Discussion-Questioning) and Literature Circle strategies in teaching reading comprehension to extrovert and introvert students. 2x2 factorial design of experimental research was carried out to collect the data from 88 eighth grade students of SMP N 1 Kandeman, Batang. Two experimental groups, A and B, were given two different treatments: Coop-Dis-Q and Literature Circle strategies. The result shows that the ρ = 0.00 for both Coop-Dis-Q and Literature Circle strategies in teaching reading comprehension to extrovert and introvert students which verifies the effectiveness of both two strategies. It wa also found that Coop-Dis-Q is more effective than Literature Circle strategy in teaching reading comprehension since the mean value of post test Coop-Dis-Q shows higher score 27.18 and the value of ρ = 0.00. However, the result also shows that there is no difference between extrovert and introvert personalities in teaching reading comprehension since the value of ρ = 0.310. Further, it was found that the ρ of strategy*type value is 0.638 so there is no interaction between teaching reading comprehension strategies and types of personality on the achievement of reading comprehension which proves that personality does not influence students’ reading comprehension achievement.

Abstract

In a local society, it is still rare to find students who are able to speak English because Indonesian loves to use local language or Bahasa Indonesia. It causes different dialects that makes harder to speak English naturally. This research is to describe and explain the articulatory phonetics that is influenced by Mid-East Sundanese dialect.This research was a qualitative case study. The subjects of this study were 18 English department students of Universitas Majalengka academic year 2017/2018. The data were collected by using questionnaires, students’ recording, observation checklist, and an interview.Based on the research data, it can be concluded that the negative transfer of L1 through vowel sounds was sound [æ]. The students tended to replace the sound [æ] with [ʌ], and [e] as well as sounds [əʊ] and [eə] that replaced with sounds [ʌ], and [ɜː]. While, the consonant sounds which negatively affected by L1 were [θ], [ð], [ʧ]. The students tended to replace the sound with [c], [d], [t], or [s]. Otherwise, L1 positively affected the cluster sounds [pr], [kw], [bl], and [str]. All of the students could pronounce them properly.Based on the findings, the mispronounced words mostly are caused by the lack of pronunciation practice. It helped them to improve and to evaluate their pronunciation ability. Since the students were able to recognize those words, then teacher facilitate them to practicing pronunciation.
