curriculum, creativity and understanding the nature of students and their needs of English. The advance of the technology allows the spread of
information through
audio and
visual; movies,
songs, product,
advertisements, etc. This fact forces the students to recognize English through facilities which do not necessarily require English language learning taken in
classroom.
One factor included in those is the existence of Native Speakers of English. As claimed by Wu 2009 that the existence of Native Speakers of English is
believed as the model of English use. Native Speakers of English are considered as the embodiment of the English standard. Accordingly, English
language learners are expected to have at least standard the native speakers ‟
vocabulary, grammar, idioms and culture. Furthermore, Ja-Park 2008 claims that English teaching and learning aimed the target language learners to speak
like a native speakers of English NSE seem to be well matched with the timing of globalization.
2.3 Aspects of Attitude
Learning process is regarded as a positive change in the individual‟s personality in terms of the emotional, psychomotor behavioral as well as cognitive domains,
since when one has learned a specific subject, heshe is supposed to think and behave in a d
ifferent manner and one‟s beliefs have been distinguished Kara, 2009. Furthermore, she claims that learning process has social aspect as well as
psychological aspect besides the cognitive one. Attitudes concept can be seen in
those three aspects. Each one of these aspects has different characteristics which then it will show different attitude results. Accordingly, the attitude concept has
three components i.e., behavioral, cognitive, and affective Abidin, 2012. In the following, the three aspects of attitude concept i.e., behavioral, cognitive, and
emotional aspects are briefly described.
2.3.1. Behavioral Aspect of Attitude
The behavioral aspect of attitude refers to someone behave as he or she behaves and reacts in certain circumstances, Kara 2009. In fact, the
successful language learning enhances the learners to identify themselves with the native speakers of that language and acquire or adopt various aspects
of behaviors which characterize the members of the target language community. Kara 2009 stated that,
“Positive attitudes lead to the exhibition of positive behaviors toward courses of study, with participants absorbing themselves in courses and
striving to learn more. Such students are also observed to be more eager to solve problems, to acquire the information and skills useful for
daily
life and to engage themselves emotionally.”
2.3.2. Cognitive Aspect of Attitude
The aspect of attitude involves the beliefs of the language learners about the knowledge that they receive and their understanding in the process of
language learning. The cognitive attitude can be classified into four steps of connecting the previous knowledge and the new one, creating new
knowledge, checking new knowledge, and applying the new knowledge in many situations.
