Abstract

Long-distance learning uses an online platform to transfer the knowledge. It has become a breakthrough in this modern era. The online learning brings many benefits to students, but it is also challenging to be implemented by the tutors in distance education universities. This paper tends to investigate the use of the guided-discovery learning (GDL) method in the psycholinguistics online tutorial class. The participants are the students of the English Education program in Universitas Terbuka, who take Psycholinguistics subject with online tutorial service. The methodology of this research is qualitative by using a case study. The researchers use the WhatsApp application as the platform in conducting the course. The students are required to follow the lesson step by step through WhatsApp. Based on the finding, this research reveals that there are two perspectives of the use of GDL toward psycholinguistics online tutorial class. The first perspective is in students that has two major advantages. The second can be seen from the learning perspective which also has two benefits of the use of GDL.

Abstract

Teacher talk must be specific, clear, concise, and comprehensible for students as the target interlocutors. This study aimed to characterize lexical density in teacher talks of elementary school teachers and university lecturers during teaching. A qualitative descriptive technique was used involving lexico-grammar analysis from an SFL perspective. The subjects of this study were three elementary school teachers (6th-grade teachers) and three university lecturers (English lecturers) who were voluntarily recorded during their teaching time; once for each. Hence, the object of this study is the transcriptions of teacher talks from these six research subjects which were then analyzed using documentation techniques of data analysis namely selection, categorization, classification, identification, and verification. The results show that the lexical density used in elementary school teacher talk is 42.65% (low) and that one employed at the university level is 36.76% (low). Unexpectedly, the rate for elementary school is somewhat higher than that for the university level. This case appears to have an intervening aspect because the elementary school is an international school. It is learned that an educational institution—regardless of its level—with a distinct learning target would certainly influence the lexical density employed in the teachers’ spoken discourse during classes.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal students' understanding of prepositions and describe the types that often confuse students. Field research is the activity of collecting baseline data for research purposes. This research was conducted using tests, questionnaires, interviews, and direct observation. In this method, the author gives a test essay consisting of 30 questions. The test was given to 50 Xi SMA Hang Tuah Makassar class students to determine their understanding of English prepositions. The author proposes a questionnaire that attempts to identify the methods of language learning by students and the experience of students in learning languages. The author presents a questionnaire that attempts to identify the processes of language learning by students and the experience of students in learning languages.A preposition is a type of adjective that usually precedes its object. Prepositional properties include words expressing spatial relationships, such as y, in, on, under, over, too, from, through, etc. A noun always follows prepositions. These conjunctions show the relationship between the nouns that follow them and one of the main elements of the sentence. The noun or pronoun after the preposition is the object. The pronoun used in this position is always the object pronoun. This study showed that the average yield. of the correct answer for prepositions of place using in, on, and at can be calculated as 368/50 = 7.36. The result of using the wrong preposition is 382/50 = 7.64. These calculations show that the number of respondents who do not know how to use prepositions correctly is more excellent than those who do. Overall, this study shows that students' ability to use the prepositions in, on, and at to indicate time and place still needs to improve. But the average difference between correct and incorrect use is minimal. In other words, the results show that the ability to use prepositions in the XI SMA Hang Tuah Makassar class as respondents in this study were average.

Abstract

Writing and publishing scientific papers is something that is not only important for researchers, but also for teachers who teach in junior high to high school related to the need to increase teacher professionalism. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the need for training in the ability to write scientific articles in English teachers. This research employs mixed methods whereby quantitative data analysis will be supported by qualitative analysis. Purposive random sampling was used in the selection of research respondents which involved 30 teachers as a sample of a total of 150 English teacher population. This analysis was carried out based on the factors that can affect the difficulty of the process of writing scientific papers including the writing environment; obstacles caused by the topic of writing; the author’s motivation; and the processes, knowledge, and skills involved in writing. The results of this study are expected to be able to become a reference in developing writing training, especially for English teachers and can be an evaluation for teachers about the actions that must be taken to develop the ability to write scientific pap
