4.3 SHARED LIVED EXPERIENCE
After a series of contemplation on the students narratives two themes emerged as a reflection of shared experience, they are students assurance towards
classroom instructions and students affinity towards internet. It is with great belief that classroom instructions plays in a significant role in every students
development. Classroom instruction is a vital part of teaching and learning process, and it is complex system that may take in many form and shape.
Classroom instructions may be the vital part in teaching and learning in regard of the context of the student, nurturing students behavior, and accommodating
students needs. Based on the interpretation of the students narratives, my belief has come to realization; meaning to say that the application of genre based
approach is acknowledged by the majority of the students at least by the three students that have participated in the research.
The stages of learning to write text types as a purposeful guidance will not be purposeful if it had not been consciously accepted by the students, admittedly
enough the three students narratives reflects great assurance in the approach, making a such factor in their learning process and consequently their writing
product. I perceive trust as the logical reasoning behind the students motivations, as it drives them to change their strong held habit and perceptions. As mentioned
in the interview, the way in general faculty of letters approach grammar is by embracing traditional approach which means that students are taught by focusing
text on the grammatical regulations, meanwhile in writing the manner in which the teacher approach grammar is by seeing it through the function of grammar in
105
social context, how grammar is makes meaning in a certain context and how the it registers in the minds of its user.
In the context of genre based approach in one of its aspects to develop a meaningful text is to use correct language language features and the term used is
rather differently. Students had to adjust themselves in order to progress, the adjusting to the new ideas will not occur unless there is a sense of trust in students
mind. Hence, the shared lived experience by the three students reflects the great deal of trust they had to the approach. Furthermore, genre based approach
embrace a progressive paradigm in teaching and learning where in one of the focus is students empowerment.
In other words, the student is the focal point in the learning process and they receive teachers attention only when needed. Hence, the role of the teacher is
highlighted, the students will have greater assurances if the role model is trustworthy of helping them reconstruct their knowledge and skills in the context
of writing text types, this significance of the role model is explicitly acknowledge by the students. However, I found an intriguing finding that is the role model in
learning can be a factor in consideration that it retains the students needs. Meaning to say that the contribution of the role model determined by students
desire to perceive him or her as their role model. In other word students will perceive someone as their role model solely due to his or her credential in running
a class or other related field. In writing 3 context, genre based approach is presented as a learning model using a state of the art learning management system
called MOODLE. This application allows administratorteacher to create a virtual
106
learning management system and integrate that into the internet. The prowess of this learning system is greatly acknowledged by the majority of the students least
of all the three participants. As being in the millennial age group, the three participants have no trouble with such integrating learning. Furthermore it has
become such a factor in over viewing the learning process and determining the product of students writings. The tendencies of students learning via internet
cannot be taken for granted, as it is already innate. The purpose of the MOODLE is not to repress students desire to study
online but on the contrary, it serves as a single meaningful destination for students. The deceiving looks of visually exciting yet full of academic relevance
has become one of the students favorite website to visit, and yet a newly found glory for the educators. Students continue to develop their affinity towards online
study but this time it is relevant The design of the MOODLE approximates to most students favorite websites and filled it with so many exciting features
making it difficult for the technologically enslaved millennial to ignore. This new strategy apparently coincides with students perception on how
education should be conducted in the 21
st
century. Never mind the addiction; it is actually what they want, as is The three participant took a very positive note on
this learning models, and quiet gracious in terms of the newly found habit that emerged from being exposed to MOODLE on a daily basis. The participants
spends 1 hour on average for studying the materials, since they have been exposed to MOODLE in a certain period of time they subconsciously reconstruct their
learning habit and actually spend more time studying writing 3 materials.
107
This finding is both intriguing and exciting at the same time. More time studying means more knowledge they gain and more practice that they get for
honing their writing skills. Honestly, I have never thought that MOODLE would reconstruct students attitude in such a ways that it would become an integral part
of students academic life. The three participants also show a positive remark on MOODLE by leaving positive comments and testimonies saying how they are
obligated to access MOODLE on daily basis and it has compelled them to get their work done quickly, and even more intriguing one of the participants has
become an agent promoting MOODLE to her classmates. Truthfully these findings are very exciting to experience, that is it shows how well writing 3
learning models accommodates students needs in terms of learning writing text types in faculty of letters, Sanata Dharma university.

CHAPTER 5 CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
The final chapter of this thesis discusses two parts they are the conclusion of the analysis and the suggestion for future research.
5.1 CONCLUSION
This research was conducted in the interest of explicitation of students who have experienced a unique learning Model called MOODLE. The research was
conducted in the third semester students in the academic year of 2010-2011. There were three distinct participants that gave their unique and shared experiences. The
manner in which the research was conducted was through the disciplined of qualitative inquiry. The students were interviewed in a thorough manner and then
observed, data validity was achieved through data triangulation through classroom observations, in-depth interview and re-interview. There were 6 individual
emergent themes from the data. The first emergent theme was the concerning reassuring students belief
towards learning writing, especially writing text types. Being conscious towards the stages of genre approach helped student assuring the foundation of learning
writing, since there were many instructions that was attended to fail to make significant impact towards students understanding of learning writing which
consequently trouble their motivations. The second theme emerged from the data was Le sing styles. It concerns
students ways to perceive knowledge and how to process it. In this theme the
