Abstract

The present study presents the instructional procedures of the implementation of corpus-aided discovery learning and the extent to which corpus-aided discovery learning can create motivating and successful English grammar learning environment for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students. Corpora promotes inductive learning in terms of that students not only acquire grammar by language data, observation and self-discovery of rules, but also find it entertaining and exciting to make grammar rule generalization on their own (Cheng, 2011; Hunston,2002). Drawing on data of a questionnaire and an interview, the students recounted that incorporating corpus-informed data into grammar learning was very satisfying and useful, and students can be sure that the language they are practicing is up-to-date, used in everyday situations. It is not artificial or invented language but consists of the most widely used grammar (McCarthy, 2004). In addition, language corpora helped students to learn about certain language uses that were not available in any of the traditional tools. Another finding shows that students understood how certain language forms were used by native speakers of English, and students revealed more positive attitude toward corpus in learning English grammar. The findings imply that corpus-informed data can be a means of encouraging autonomous learning, illustrating real uses of abstract rules, presenting authentic daily grammar, and promoting exploratory inductive learning. However, some students, especially inexperienced students, found learning grammar through corpus-informed data was difficult or boring.

This paper reports the survey results of 20 EFL teachers regarding their beliefs, knowledge and practices in using dictionaries in their classes at English education programme of a state university in Karawang - West Java, Indonesia. The questionnaire consists of four parts. The first part investigates the profile of the participants as dictionary users. The second part reports the results of teachers’ knowledge with regard to dictionary use through the lexicographic survey. The third part presents the results of EFL teachers’ general preconception about dictionaries. The fourth part presents teachers’ belief in the value of dictionaries for students. Finally, this paper suggests teachers how to utilize dictionaries in the classroom activities. Though the teacher participants are somewhat small, certain tendencies emerge as they show familiarity with dictionaries as an indivisible part of English language learning kit; they also agree that students need to be taught how to use dictionaries.

Abstract

Students? reading comprehension on disciplinary texts commonly involves the interaction between the cognitive aspect and the text itself, but little is known how it is carried out through multimodal reading. To fill this practical void, this article reports the findings of classroom action research of the pre-service teachers learning disciplinary vocabularies through different modes of meaning, the socially and culturally shaped resources or semiotic structure for making meaning: video viewing and graphic organizers. This study proposes that multimodal reading has the potential to promote the role of student teachers as designers and navigators in reading English disciplinary texts. Pedagogically, this multimodal engagement not only creates interactive content learning but also it encourages the students to become autonomous language learners. In addition to multimodal reading activities, the students were motivated not only to learn about language but also to learn through language. Moreover, multimodality reading tasks can scaffold comprehension and production of the academic language of the students. Finally, students who are engaged in cognitive work in content areas (e.g., statistics for second language research) have the motivation to learn a language that supports their learning. Multimodality reading tasks can support students ?communication, increasing students? academic writing and students? academic vocabulary development as well.
