Abstract

There is a popular understanding among English learners that meaning lies in words. This is only partially true. In English monomorphemic words meaning lies in the single morphemes which are also the words. However, there are a lot of bimorphemic or polymorphemic words in English. The meaning of these words is determined by the units of meaning that combine into words. These units of meaning are called morphemes. Meaning lies in morphemes. In English the meaning of words lies in free morphemes, bound stems, prefixes, suffixes, and superfixes

Abstract

From the last-three-year document of national exam of English which emphasizes more reading comprehension, it can be known that some students scored high, some others scored low. The difference in achieving such a score may be influenced by the strategy use in reading. To know comprehensively reading strategy use and the reading comprehension achievement, this study aimed to find out: the reading strategies used by the high achieving students and the low achieving students, the most frequently used strategy by the students, and whether there is significant correlation between reading strategy and the reading comprehension achievement This non experimental study involves 56 second graders of the exact sciences program of SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Babat. Reading comprehension test and Survey of Reading Strategy (SORS) were used to collect the data. Data analyzing used tally and Pearson product moment. The findings are, the high achieving students used more reading strategies than low achieving students; the most frequently used strategy by among groups is problem solving, global, and support strategy; there is significant correlation between reading strategy and reading comprehension achievement by high achieving students and low achieving students. It means the better reading strategy used, the better reading achievement wil be and vice versa

Abstract

The practice of name giving differs from language to language. A name can be given to a person, place or thing. Therefore, there are person names, place names, thing names. The fact, however, a person may be named after a place or even an animal name. The phenomenon discussed in this article shows another practice of name giving not to a person, place or thing, but to a car. That is a car is named after its owner. It is the implication beyond the name giving that this article intends to uncover.

Abstract

Telah dilakukan penelitian untuk menentukan nilai panjang gelombang berbagai filter warna dengan menggunakan percobaan kisi difraksi. Dipilih percobaan kisi difraksi karena variabel kesalahannya relatif lebih sedikit dibandingkan dengan eksperimen lainnya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk membantu siswa sekolah menengah/mahasiswa dalam melakukan eksperimen efekfotolistrik, sehingga dapat menghasilkan nilai konstanta Planck yang cukup baik (paling tidak mempunyai orde yang sama yaitu 10-34) dengan menggunakan panjang gelombang filter warna. Hasil penelitian adalah nilai panjang gelombang dari 3 filter warna (merah jingga dan hijau) dari sumber cahaya lampu TL dan wolfram, karena filter warna lainnya seperti biru dan ungu tidak tampat hasil difraksinya pada teleskop spectrometer meski telah menggunakan lampu dengan daya 100 watt. Nilai panjang gelombang filter merah untuk lampu TL 6.4024x10-7 m dan lampu wolfram 6.4968x10-7 m, filter jingga untuk lampu TL 6.2065x10-7 m dan lampu wolfram 6.2936x10-7 m, filter hijau untuk lampu TL 5.3280x10-7 m dan lampu folfram 5.0738x10-7 m. Dan setelah diujicobakan pada eksperimen efekfotolistrik, untuk lampu TL diperoleh nilai konstanta Planck 5,1797x10-34 Js dan untuk lampu wolfram 4,5443x10-34 Js. Dengan demikian panjang gelombang filter warna merah, jingga dan hijau yang diperoleh masih belum tepat sesuai harapan, hal ini disebabkan karena ada beberapa nilai panjang gelombang yang tidak terdeteksi pada teleskop spectrometer. Namun demikian nilai panjang gelombang tersebut masih dapat digunakan untuk digunakan dalam eksperimen efekfotolistrik karena nilai konstanta Planck yang diperoleh masih dalam orde 10-34.

Abstract

This study was an attempt to answer the questions: Are the words used in the compositions of Writing I students specific and appropriate? Are the nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs used in the compositions under study specific and appropriate? The data source of the study was the students’ Writing I final test papers of academic years 2006/2007 (15 papers) and 2008/2009 (15 papers). The results are the words made by the students from both academics are specific and appropriate in which the score is 3. There are 20 essays scored 3 or in good quality, 7 essays with excellent score (4), and 3 essays are scored 2 (fair). The nouns used are specific (good score of 3) while the verbs and the modifiers used are somewhat specific (fair score of 2). All four classwords are used appropriately in which the score is 4 (excellent). Based on the results, it is suggested the EESP authorities include vocabulary section in Writing I syllabus that is treated as equally important as any other elements of Writing. The Writing I lecturers are expected to teach the students to master and use specific and appropriate words. The students themselves are encouraged to enrich their vocabularies by reading books.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of using deductive and inductive approach in teaching English to students on their conditional sentence mastery. This study also intends to describe the students’ perception toward deductive or inductive teaching approach. This study was a queasy experimental study which compares the effectiveness of deductive and inductive approach in teaching conditional sentences. The sample of this study is 64 SMK students in the academic years of 2012-2013. The students consist of two classes and each class comprises 32 students. The findings indicate that inductive teaching approach is more effective than deductive approach when used to teach conditional sentences. The result of the questionnaire indicates that students like the inductive approach and they are satisfied taught using inductive approach
