Students’ Perception on Reflection Contributing to Students Learning Awareness

31 Table 4.1 The Students’ Reasons to Make Reflection Why do you make reflection? Do you make it just to get good mark? Why why not? Explain your answer Classification Example of Responses Reflection is beneficial 47.89 • It will help me to know my strengths and weaknesses. It isn’t only a matter of getting good mark but it is a matter of understanding what we have done in the class that will help me to improve my practice teaching more and more. • Because it helps me to analyze what I have done and decide what I should do for better performance. It is not only about mark Reflection is compulsory to gain additional mark 35.21 • I do my reflection because I have to write it. My lecturer asks me to do that. Honestly, I don’t really like to write reflection. I assume that it because I am forced to do that, not based on my willingness. Furthermore, the reflection is written every meeting. I don’t like it • Yes, I make it because it is compulsory and I have to do it to increase my score Reflection is beneficial and compulsory 16.90 • Because it is a must. Besides that I can get so may advantages from it. I can improve my teaching skill • I make reflection so that I can see what trully happens in my teaching. However, I also make it for getting good mark. Who knows that by writing reflection, I can have additional points

4.1.3 Students’ Perception on Reflection Contributing to Students Learning Awareness

Based on Figure 4.3, most of the students agreed that they found their learning strengths and weaknesses by making reflection. There were 54.93 of students who agreed and 15.49 of students who strongly agreed to the statement “Making reflection helps me to find the strengths I have in the subject”. Meanwhile, there were 56.34 of students who agreed that making reflection 32 helps them to find learning weaknesses and the other 22.54 of students strongly agreed on it. Figure 4.3 The Contribution of Reflection to Find Learning Strengths and Weaknesses Figure 4.4 The Contribution of Reflection to Create Problem Solving Skill Figure 4.4 showed that 54.93 of students chose agree and 16.90 of students chose strongly agree on the statement “Making reflection helps me to find my learning difficultiesproblems”. The rest of the students chose disagree 1.40 1.40 28.17 19.72 54.93 56.34 15.49 22.54 0.00 10.00 20.00 30.00 40.00 50.00 60.00 making reflection helps me to find their learning strenghts making reflection helps me to find their learning weaknesses strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 1.40 0.00 0.00 26.76 50.70 30.99 54.93 33.80 53.52 16.90 15.49 15.49 0.00 10.00 20.00 30.00 40.00 50.00 60.00 Making reflection helps me to find my learning difficulties problems Making reflection helps me to solve my learning problems Making reflection encourages me to take responsibility of my learning strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 33 26.76 and strongly disagree 1.40. Moreover, 53.52 of the students chose agree and 15.49 of the students chose strongly agree on the statement “Making reflection encourages me to take responsibility of my learning by improving my learning”. There were none of the students who chose strongly disagree and 30.99 of students chose disagree. Thus, the result showed that most of the students agreed that reflection helps them to find their learning difficulties and encourages them to take responsibility to their learning. However, Figure 4.4 also showed that most of the students disagreed that reflection helped them to solve their learning problems. There were 50.70 of students who chose disagree on the statement “Making reflection helps me to solve my learning problems”. None of the students who chose strongly disagree on it whereas the other 33.80 of students chose agree and 15.49 of students chose strongly agree. Figure 4.5 The Contribution of Reflection to See What Happens in the Learning 1.40 1.40 18.31 26.62 63.38 54.93 19.90 7.04 0.00 10.00 20.00 30.00 40.00 50.00 60.00 70.00 Making reflection helps me see the learning behaviour I normally do Making reflection helps me see the best technique I do to learn strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 34 Figure 4.5 indicated that most of the students agreed that reflection showed them what happens in the learning. Responding on the statement “Making reflection helps me to see the learning behavior I normally do”, 1.40 of students chose strongly disagree, 18.31 of students chose disagree, 63.38 of students chose agree and the other 16.90 chose strongly agree. It was clearly seen that most of the students agreed that reflection helped them to see their learning behavior their normally did. Moreover, Figure 4.5 illustrated that most of the students agreed that reflection helped them to observe the learning techniques their normally did. There were 1.40 of students who chose strongly disagree, 26.62 of students chose disagree, 54.93 of students chose agree and the other 7.04 chose strongly agree. Figure 4.6 The Contribution of Reflection to Provide Recording of the Learning Based on Figure 4.6, the students agreed that reflection provided recording of their learning. There were 1.40 of students chose strongly disagree and 21.13 of students chose disagree on the statement “Reflection helps me notice my learning from time to time”. The other 59, 15 of students chose agree and 1.40 2.82 21.13 28.17 59.15 59.15 18.31 9.86 0.00 10.00 20.00 30.00 40.00 50.00 60.00 70.00 Reflection helps me notice my learning from time to time Making reflection helps me see the connection of my belief on the learning with my actual learning behavior strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 35 18.31 students chose strongly agree. Responding on the statement, “Making reflection helps me see the connection of my belief on the learning with my actual learning behavior”, 2.82 of students chose strongly disagree, 28.17 of students chose disagree, 59.15 of students chose agree and 9.86 of students chose strongly agree. The percentage showed that most of the students agreed that reflection shows the connection of their belief on their learning between their actual learning behaviors. Figure 4.7 The Contribution of Reflection to Increase Students’ Learning Involvement Figure 4.7 illustrated that most of the students agreed 64.79 of students chose agree and 5.63 of students chose strongly agree that reflection increased their learning involvement because they began to perceive the purpose of the assignments given. The rest of the students disagreed on it 28.17 of students chose disagree and 1.40 of students chose strongly disagree. Moreover, Figure 4.7 showed that most of the students agreed that reflection encouraged them to examine the consequences of their learning action. 1.40 2.82 28.17 36.62 64.79 49.30 5.63 11.27 0.00 10.00 20.00 30.00 40.00 50.00 60.00 70.00 Reflection increases my learning involvement because I begin to perceive the purpose for assignment given to me Reflection encourages me to examine the consequences of my action strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 36 There were 2.82 of students who chose strongly disagree, 36.62 of students chose disagree, 49.30 of students chose agree and the other 11.27 chose strongly agree. Figure 4.8 The Contribution of Reflection to Clarify Learning Feelings Based on Figure 4.8, 40.85 of students chose agree and 33.80 of students chose strongly agree on the statement “I express my feelings on the subject in the reflection”. The rest of the students chose disagree 16.90 and strongly disagree 8.45. The percentage showed that most of the students agreed that they expressed their feeling on the subject in the reflection. In addition, Figure 4.8 showed that most of the students agreed that they were able to create communication with the lecturer through reflection. There were 33.80 of the students who chose agree and 22.54 of students who chose strongly agree on the statement “I create communication with my lecturer through reflection because I am able to share anything I feel in my learning”. The rest of the students chose disagree 33.80 and strongly disagree 9.86. 8.45 9.86 16.90 33.80 40.85 33.80 33.80 22.54 0.00 5.00 10.00 15.00 20.00 25.00 30.00 35.00 40.00 45.00 I express my feelings on the subject in the reflection I create communication with my lecturer through reflection because I am able to share anything I feel in my learning strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree 37
