A sample of 13 teachers was established using  the quota sampling technique (three teachers for each package of specialization). The data were collected using a questionnaire and through documentation. The data were analyzed using the descriptive statistical,  quantitative and  qualitative descriptive analyses. The results of this research are as follows.

The findings show that: (a) the teachers do not understand the principles and application of the scientific learning models as an appropriate approach to Curriculum  2013 implementation; (b) though all teachers have formulated learning activities preliminarily, the core and ending of learning stages, the realization of these activities is not in accordance with the provisions, (c) the teachers do not apply the information and communication technology (ICT) in the learning activities. (3) The teachers’ readiness in the learning assessment to implement Curriculum 2013 is in less prepared conditions. This is shown by the teachers’ inadequate understanding of the principles, procedures, and techniques of the authentic assessment, and the given tasks for the students  do not portray the authentic tasks

Abstract

The study aims to investigate the kinds of DMs employed by Indonesian and Thai students in their argumentative writing, to compare the use of DMs by both groups in terms of its nature and problems, and to find out whether the use of the DMs produced by Indonesian and Thai students contributes to the coherence of the text they write. The 46 argumentative writings composed by the Indonesian and Thai students were analyzed following Halliday and Hasan (1976) and Halliday and Matthiessen (2004). The findings of this study revealed that the most frequently used discourse markers was the addition ones (for Indonesian students) followed by concession and contrast, cause and result, and enumeration and order ones; and was the concession and contrastones (for Thai students), followed by addition, cause and result, and enumeration and order ones, respectively. In addition, it was also found that there were several problems in the use of DMs (i.e. the various type of the use of DMs, missing verbs in finite clauses, use of DMs in complex sentences, run-ons, overuse of the DMs, and repetition of the use of DMs) and were encountered differently by both groups of students. Moreover, this study also revealed that there was a relationship between the use of the DMs and text coherence. Finally, instead of being caused by the matter of the use of DMs, this study revealed that the incoherent text was also triggered by several problems including grammatical errors, irrelevant sentences, and out-of-topic sentences.
