Abstract

Childhood is generally regarded as the most cheerful phase in people life. Related to the language learning, in this period of time a child unconsciously learns how to speak his/her vernacular trough constant imitation and repetition of the utterances produced by the older people when they are speaking in their mother tongue language. This phenomenon takes place when the child is about six to eight years old. In the years after, a foreign language will be effectively taught, because they are supposed to be adult linguistically, which means that tha child is going to get ready to learn a new set of habits in speaking. Several characteristics of children as young learners of a foreign language should be considered as a guideline to decide several kinds of approach, methods, techniques, and models of foreign language teaching and learning to optimize their foreign language proficiency, considering that they have specific and unique characteristics contrasted to adult learners. To yield an intended result, appropriate, accurate and integrated materials involving pronounciation, vocabulary enrichment and sentence arrangement must be selected in such a way and adjusted to the learners’ needs. It’s not easy to achieve the intended purpose of the process due to several handicaps such as; lisping, slurring, stuttering, and cluttering.

Abstract

This study is aimed at describing students’ ability in writing descriptive texts viewed from analytic assessment presented by O’Malley and Pierce, involving composing, style, sentence formation, usage and mechanics. The study was conducted by applying a descriptive quantitative-qualitative method. The data were taken from 15 descriptive texts made by the second semester students of English Department, Pancasakti University Tegal 2018/2019. The result of the study shows that there are 33.4% of the students are “good”, 40% of the students are “fair”, and 26.6% of the students are “bad”. The students mean score is 65 (fair), and the scores of each components are as follows: composing is 71.6, style is 66.2, sentence formation is 60, usage is 55.7, and mechanics is 55. The result also shows that the texts are developed trough correct generic structure involving identification and descriptions. The writer suggested that the students need to study harder and practice more frequently to increase their writing ability, specifically in mechanics as their weakness in writing.

Abstract

In general , the purpose of this research is to apply a learning model that can improve student achievement . Specifically, the objectives of this study are to: (1). Know and analyze the learning conditions in SD Kagok before applying the CTL learning model. (2). Analyzing the effectiveness of the CTL learning model can improve student achievement which is higher than previous learning outcomes that are not using the CTL learning model at SD Negeri Kagok. Slawi District, Tegal Regency. Knowing the form of support from the principal, other teachers and facilities in the implementation of the CTL learning model. This research method uses a pre and post test experimental design. This phase includes several activities, namely; (a) conducting a pretest (pretest), (b) conducting an observation, interview/interview, (c) conducting a final test (posttest). Conducting a pretest (pretest) to one group/class before applying the CTL model. Conducting a final test (posttest) to the group/class after applying the CTL model. Perform analysis by comparing pre-test and post-test scores with t-test. From the results of calculations using the t-test, it is obtained that the empirical t-test is greater than the t-test in the table, so it can be concluded that the CTL learning model is more effective.
