Pedagogical Implications CONCLUSION, IMPLICATION, RECOMMENDATION

74 1. For lecturers or instructors By reviewing the findings, the lecturer or instructors will be aware of their strengths and weaknesses in order to update and to come up with new strategies which are appropriate to their students. One major finding of this study showed the students believe that they engage the value of life during the process of learning. It might be important to explore more on the value of life related to English learning. Optimizing the engagement of the value of life could impact to the process of moral building or character education for the students. This is interesting because, nowadays, character education has become a growing movement in Indonesia as it is considered that it takes important role in reconstructing Indonesians to be a more advanced and civilized nation. 2. For further researchers To contribute the success of English learning in Indonesia, further research on students beliefs, which covers larger scope should be conducted with several improvements. First, due to the limitations of time, budget, and social connections, this research was conducted at a single university in Faculty of Engineering Yogyakarta State University. It would be useful, if the future research could be conducted at more universities of different types of Indonesia to identify the similarities and differences in students’ beliefs in different learning environments. This research could also be conducted in senior high schools and vocational high schools in order to document students’ beliefs before college and compare these results with those at the college level. 75 Second, the main instrument of this study is the new-design questionnaire in the form of Linkert-scale questionnaire. Although questionnaire administration is the most commonly used method for investigating language beliefs and strategies Horwitz, 1985, 1987, 1988, 1999; Oxford, 1989, 1990; Oxford Burry-Stock, 1995; Oxford Crookall, 1989, the findings from questionnaire may not cover all aspect of beliefs. More research instruments to be used may be able to improve the findings such as, the cause or effect of the students’ beliefs. However, the limitation of the questionnaire is that, because there are so many possible beliefs might not be included in the questionnaire. Due to the potential limitations of the questionnaire, it may be difficult to actually identify students’ real beliefs and strategy use with this instrument. Thus the further research could employ other instruments to enrich the findings of students’ beliefs. Third, the findings of this study are limited by the engineering university chosen and the 258 questionnaire respondents. Therefore, the findings may not be generalized to all tertiary of students of non-English major. Furthermore, since this study was conducted in 2015, the findings may not be generalized to other periods of time. In addition, the data collection was conducted in Faculty of Engineering Yogyakarta State University for only about a month in 2015. More time for collection may have resulted in more extensive and richer data. 76 REFERENCES Altan, M.X. 2006.
