Significance of the Study Organization of the Thesis

1.4. Statement of the Problems

The problem statement in this thesis is elaborated into several research questions as follows: 1. What subject matters field are displayed in the dialogues found in the textbook? 2. What kinds of interpersonal relations tenor are displayed in the dialogues found in the textbook? 3. What channels of communication mode do the interactans use in the dialogues found in the textbook?

1.5. Objective of the Study

I clarify the objective of this study into three components, namely: 1. To identify the subject matters field which are displayed in the dialogues found in the textbook 2. To identify the kinds of interpersonal relations tenor which are displayed in the dialogues found in the textbook 3. To specify the channels of communication mode the interactans use found in the textbook

1.6. Significance of the Study

The study of the context of situation including field, tenor and mode may contribute to the development of either transactional or interpersonal conversation analysis within the textbook particularly English textbook. Thus, it is expected that such analysis will be useful for the register analysis. This study is expected to be useful for the teachers and students to improve their knowledge about discourse analysis, particularly the study about context of situation including field, tenor and mode. The knowledge about context of situation will give a perspective to the teacher in order not to teach the language system only but to teach how to use the language system to produce text either transactional or interpersonal. Therefore, the students can achieve discourse competence as what the curriculums wants to achieve. The research about discourse analysis concerning the context of situation and its components is probably able to give a new inspiration for text’s writer in order to include the context of situation within the textbook particularly English textbook. Therefore, the field what is going on in the text or the topic is proper with the needs of the students; the tenor the relationship between participants does not only present the relationship between students but also with parents, teacher, etc. The mode the channel does not only present spoken language in interpersonal conversation but also transactional conversation.
