The third theme is inadequate learning facilities. There are two students reflected that their past lived experience in junior high school and senior high
school is the same with SO1 Refl.2, and SO2 Refl. 2. For example, they liked English language in junior school and senior school but they did not
acquire English competence because the Papuan government did not equipped the schools with good learning facilities. Because of that, they have difficulty in
English language. Here are their reflections:
The previous schooling experience, in my primary school and junior high school, I liked to learn English language but inadequate learning facilities. For example, English books,
dictionaries, and others learning facilities. Because of Papuan government did not equipped facilities SO1. Refl.3.
The three Papuan students reflected about inadequate learning facilities in their primary school, junior school and senior high school same as my reflection
Refl.3, such as lack of English books, and other learning facilities.
b. The lived Experience during the Matriculation
In this study the researcher explains two themes that the lived experience during the matriculation on my own reflections and three students 1 to be
successful Papuan students need full support from faculty members; and 2
difficuty to adapt to the teaching learning process during the matriculation. The first theme is to be successful Papuan students need full support from
faculty members of Sanata Dharma University. In this study the researcher and three Papuan students reflected how the Dean of faculty facilitated Papuan
students during the matriculation in order to adapt to the enviroment through the learning facilities.
Since the first time I came to Yogyakarta, 2009, and I lived at the dorm Sanata Dharma University and I had learnt many subjects. And I also learnt English language little but I
don’t understand more as I find difficult to understand it. This is because my former English teachers, at the primary school, and Junior or Senior High school, did not tough to
me very well SO1.Refl. 04.
Papuan students were also supported in the form of the learning methods in Java.
First time I came to Yogyakarta, I had difficulty to adapt in learning teaching methods, when the matriculation, because of the curriculum in Papua teaching learning was different.
And another cause adapt the environment during the matriculation, the Dean of faculty gives me opportunity to learn and adapt in the society with Javanes people SO2 Refl 04
23 April 2014.
Students SO1 and SO2 Refl.4, indicated the same experience in their reflections
about adaptation to the environment with both students’ SO3 and
SO4. For example Refl.1, the Dean talk to Papuan students in public places. Knowing is a mode of being of in being then this mean that every moment of
practical acting and knowing always already takes place in a mode of being that heshe call in-
being Heidegger, 1985, p. 161.”
