Abstract

A number of studies show that studenents' approaches to learning are important elements to achieve success. Learning approache provides perspectives on the characterisics of good learners. Using R-SPQ-2F (Biggs, Kember, & Leung, 2001), a revised version of Biggs'(1987) Study Process Questionnaire (SPQ), this study attempted to explore the learning approaches of first year students of 2013 academic year at the Faculty of Language and Literature, of Satya Wacana Christian University. The purpose of the study was to find out if there was a correlation between the students' approaches to learning and their achievement in the Integrated Course (IC), and the profile of their approaches to learning English in the first semester. From 151 respondents participated in this study, it was found that, although weak, there was a positive correlation between students’ achievement scores and Deep Approach and a negative correlation between their IC scores and Surface Approach. This study also found that Deep Motive was associated with the students' achievement. However, from the findings of the students' profile based on SPQ indicated that the study could not predict the students at risk. Other factors could have affected the students' achievement in their learning.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the seven countries that the principals informed the lack of infrastructure and educational materials. The Indonesian government is improving all aspects of the education. The use of technology in the classroom has been concerned as it is one of the criteria in OECD rank. In this study, we explore the use of technology in the classroom from in-service teachers’ (n = 20, male = 2, female = 18) perspectives. The data were collected with a web-based survey with some open-ended questions which allow the researcher to detect the teachers’ responses. The findings report that some of the teachers use technology to deliver learning and to attract their students. The others may prefer to deliver teaching without technology to make the students experience the real things. Meanwhile, some combine the use of technology and realia to make the students grab the materials easily and to deliver meaningful learning to the students. The study suggests that the government should not only emphasize the improvement in technology and educational infrastructure. The government should also provide training for the teachers which help the teachers to be more creative in using real things around them.

To obtain the description of lexical sophistication in LLT Journal: A Journal on Language and Language Teaching, the researcher used a corpus software called Tool for the Automatic Analysis of Lexical Sophistication (TAALES). Sixty-six articles published in 2016, 2017 and 2018 were used as the data of this study. There were five descriptions of lexical sophistication in LLT Journal: A Journal on Language and Language Teaching, namely word frequency, word range, n-gram, academic list and word information. The word frequency (87%) showed the good amount of percentage in the articles. Word range (87%) showed the use of words in the articles were delivered properly. N-gram (35%) showed the sign of low lexical sophistication scores. Academic list (15%) showed low lexical sophistication scores. Word information (60%) showed high lexical sophistication scores. The percentage of each description of lexical sophistication showed that the academic list gained the lowest percentage among the other descriptions of lexical sophistication. It can be inferred that the academic list aspect in LLT Journal: A Journal on Language and Language Teaching needs to be upgraded.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate EFL students’ performance in recognizing and using academic vocabulary across three different proficiency levels of English, i.e., elementary, intermediate and advanced. A quantitative approach was employed with a cross-sectional design to examine the difference and the correlation between the two variables and 150 subjects from a private university in Jakarta, some interesting results were uncovered in this study. First, there was a significant difference in overall calculation of students’ academic vocabulary across proficiency levels, even though such a difference does not appear between intermediate and advanced level. Second, the overall calculation shows that there was a significant correlation between students’ academic vocabulary and their proficiency levels with Sig. 0.249, but surprisingly, a more detail calculation did not present any correlation at all between the variables. These results confirm that the gap among proficiency levels was not big, as majority of the students were in intermediate level of their English competence. Even though the students could perform academic vocabulary in university writing; however, almost all of them were not aware with the existence of the words, especially because the words belong to the low frequency band.
