A. Setting of the Research
The study was conducted in SMK Farmasi Bina Farma Madiun. This school is located at Jl. Tulus Bakti 5A Madiun. The phone number is 0351 452651. It is the
only pharmacy school in Madiun and one of the qualified private vocational high schools in Madiun. It is called qualified private vocational high school because most
of the students get a job easily after they graduate from this school. If its graduates are compared with the other pharmacy school in East Java, this school is in second
level after SMF Surabaya. The fact is that they are perfect in their skill, but not in other subject which is regarded that it is useless for their future. In other word that
students only want to study their skills. Most of the students live in a boarding house and they must study at 6.30 – 12.05 for theory and 12.30 – 17.30 for practice
every day. The research was conducted in the third semester of 2007. This school was established in 1969. It had only 9 teachers and was located in
one of room of the house. The owner of the house is one who has the idea to establish pharmacy school. She is Chinese who was interested in education
especially health. Then, she assembled her friends especially a pharmacist to
70 establish the school. It had 15 students each year. It happened because the room is
small. It caused the students who studied in this school as selected students. At 1970, the government stated that individual was not able to establish the school, so
the owner of the school joined with one of the institution in Madiun. It was Yayasan Wijana Sejati, and now it becomes Yayasan Yohanes Gabriel. At the beginning of
1980, it moved at Jl. Tulus Bakti 5A Madiun, and it had 6 rooms. Level one studied in the evening and practiced in the morning while level two and three study theory
in the morning and do practice in the afternoon. All subject matters were related to pharmacy. English was only forty minutes a
week. It happened because there was not English in their curriculum. It happened until 1998. In 1998 curriculum of health school changed. There was English.
English was not forty minutes a week but for first and second level there were eighty minutes a week and third level was still forty minutes. Most of the students
and also most of the teachers considered that English is not important subject matter. The important subject matter is the subject matter which relates to
pharmacy. It influenced the students when there was English
