Abstract

Abstract: Examining Indonesian Teacher Roles in EFL Classroom: Insights from Elementary Teacher Narratives. Objectives: Different roles have been attributed to teachers from knowledge transmitter to caregiver. These roles are intertwined with one another and their complexity has attracted numerous researchers to investigate. In spite of the extensive literature and studies on teacher roles, very few studies have highlighted the complexity and changing roles of teachers from the insider point of view. This study explores the insider perspective of an elementary school teacher to gain clearer insights on teacher roles. Methods: The study focuses on how teachers narrate their roles as teachers and draw emerging themes from the narration. The data of this study were collected by semi-structured interviews, classroom observation, and document analysis. Findings: Through thematic analysis, the study reveals that the teacher played many roles from planning the materials, managing the class, monitoring and evaluating the students progress. Conclusion: These imply that teacher professional development and teacher competence become a concern in order to optimize the teachers roles.Keywords: Changing teachers roles, elementary school teachers roles, narrative inquiry.Abstrak: Menelaah Peran Guru Indonesia di Kelas EFL: Wawasan dari Narasi Guru Sekolah Dasar.

Peran-peran ini saling terkait satu sama lain dan kompleksitasnya telah menarik banyak peneliti untuk menyelidikinya. Terlepas dari literatur yang luas dan studi tentang peran guru, sangat sedikit studi yang menyoroti kompleksitas dan perubahan peran guru dari sudut pandang orang dalam. Studi ini mengeksplorasi perspektif orang dalam dari seorang guru sekolah dasar untuk mendapatkan wawasan yang lebih jelas tentang peran guru. Metode: Studi ini berfokus pada bagaimana guru menceritakan peran mereka sebagai guru dan menarik tema yang muncul dari narasi. Data penelitian ini dikumpulkan dengan wawancara semi terstruktur, observasi kelas, dan analisis dokumen. Temuan: Melalui analisis tematik, penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa guru memainkan banyak peran mulai dari merencanakan materi, mengelola kelas, memantau dan mengevaluasi kemajuan siswa. Kesimpulan: Hal ini menyiratkan bahwa pengembangan profesional guru dan kompetensi guru menjadi perhatian dalam rangka mengoptimalkan peran guru.Kata kunci: Perubahan peran guru, peran guru sekolah dasar, narrative inquiry.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v12.i1.202224
