21 There is a correlation between awareness and consciousness. According to
Schmidt 1990, consciousness and awareness is correlated each other. However the researcher is looking to distinguish those concepts for more detailed
understanding. From what Schmidt 1990 has said, it is revealed that consciousness can act as awareness in cognitive manner or in more socially
flexible uses. Meanwhile according to Sinclair 1999, awareness only tends to focus on cognitive or autonomous learning activity. In conclusion, it can be said
that consciousness has wider scope than awareness which is tend to be more limited to individual cognitive scope such as in autonomous learning activities.
c. Learning Interaction
Interaction is important word for language teachers and learners in creating good communication in teaching and learning activity inside and outside
classroom. ―In the era of communicative language teaching, interaction is, in fact,
the heart of communication; it is what communication is all about Brown, 1994‖. Theories of communicative competence emphasize the importance of
interaction as human beings use language in various contexts to negotiate meaning and deliver messages. Rivers 1987 stated that through interaction,
students can increase their language st ore as they listen to read ‗authentic
linguistic material‘, or even the output of their fellow students in discussions, joint problem-solving tasks, or dialogue journals.
In interaction, students can use all of their possession of the language, all they have learned or absorbed in real life exchanges, where expressing their real
meaning is important to them. In addition to that, according to Marzano 1998:
22 Although we can learn by reading and listening, real depth of
understanding knowledge happens when the learner expresses the new learning herself, either through discussions or writings, the
learner needs to encode the learning themselves, rather than simply receive what others have encoded
—heshe needs to verbalize when watching, hearing, or performing new tasks.
Verbalizing is a powerful concept. The point of what stated by Marzano
1998 is that by actively interacting verbally to certain activity, learners can achieve real depth of understanding rather than only become passive during the
process. In this case, the role of teacher as instructor appears to be crucial since interaction is thought to be important in naturalistic language acquisition, how is it
accomplished in low financial capacity learners? The writer is interested in findings how learners‘ interaction takes place in second language acquisition
classroom settings, and also the significance of their awareness, motivation, facilities toward the English learning.
