Abstract

This research article explores the importance of parental involvement on students’ speaking achievement. The researchers demonstrate how parental involvement in children’s learning process can lead to numerous benefits for both children and parents, educators, and also school; including speaking achievement in English subject area. In this global era, Indonesian students are expected to master English as stated in the curriculum. Speaking is an essential skill in English to help students facing the global era in order to build relationships with other people around the world. Sometimes students have difficulties in practicing their speaking skills. This may be due to the lack of involvement of parents in the children’s learning process. Parents should encourage their children to be fluent in English as one of the international languages which are needed to find a job and pursue further education. As a result, it is not only parents that become the crucial components in educating students to create a better achievement but also school and community matters. Thus, the involvement of parents is needed to play an active role in collaboration with school and community to help students to be actively participating in the learning process to increase students’ speaking achievement.

Abstract

Several studies have been conducted to determine the implementation of the Independent Curriculum. However, the existing studies have not identified English teachers’ self-efficacy in implementing the curriculum. Therefore, the present research aims to investigate the English teachers’ self-efficacy in applying the Independent Curriculum in secondary schools in Indonesia. This study was a mixed method study using a questionnaire and focus group discussions with teachers in teacher support groups. The data was collected from 171 secondary school English teachers. The results show that most English teachers understand the freedom offered by the government to schools and teachers in the new curriculum. However, they have low self-efficacy in implementing the curriculum in the teaching-learning process. They do not have adequate knowledge of how to translate the learning objectives specified by the government into their own syllabi. They do not have sufficient understanding or ability to conduct a needs analysis and syllabus design as a prerequisite for implementing the curriculum. Our research suggests that the teachers need further support from the government and teacher trainers through in-person hands-on training and workshops on needs analysis, syllabus design, and materials selection and development to effectively implement the Independent Curriculum.
