B. Problem Formulation

Through this study, the writer formulates the problems which are presented into three questions. 1. What kinds of error do the participants make in forming grammatical English questions? 2. Why do the participants make errors in the formation of grammatically correct English questions? 3. What are possible recommendations to improve the production of grammatical English question forms?

C. Problem Limitation

The writer limits the problems by focusing on the errors in forming English questions faced by the students of Microteaching class of Sanata Dharma University. The grounds for the limitation are that the students have passed Structure V class and they are prepared to be English teachers whose sentence production is expected to be grammatically correct. The writer limits the types of question as well. Questions, in this study, refer to yes-no questions and interrogative word or wh- questions. Furthermore, the errors are those found in their speech production when the students perform their teaching practice. As it is related to spoken production in which corrections may hardly be applied, the errors seem to occur more naturally. 5

D. Research Objectives

Dealing with the three questions mentioned previously, the research is conducted to achieve three objectives: 1. Figuring out the errors made by the participants in forming grammatical English questions. 2. Finding out the causes why the participants make errors in forming grammatically correct English questions. 3. Recommending possible solutions to improve the production of grammatical English question forms.

E. Research Benefits

This research is beneficial for both lecturers and students, particularly who are involved in ELESP. For the students, the research helps them analyze the common errors occurring in the formation of grammatical English questions. Noticing the errors, they are expected not to make the same errors anymore. The analysis on the errors would also help them have a deeper understanding on the formation of grammatical English questions. For the lecturers, this research serves as a means to obtain the depiction of the students’ mastery in forming English questions. Therefore, by knowing the causes for the errors faced by the students, it is expected that there will be possible recommendations or solutions for the lecturers to overcome the problem. 6
