Employing the Stages of the Genre-Based Approach in the Teaching – Learning process
Next, the researcher designed the scaffolding task in the handout. The first task would be jumbled sentences or filling the blank spaces and the next task could be
a true-false task or WH-Question. It was because the given task in Cycle 1 seemed too easy for them so they were not challenged in doing the task.
d. Giving the Students an Opportunity to be More Active Through Group Discussion and Group Sharing Section.
The last action was giving the students opportunity to be more active through group discussion and group sharing section. In Cycle 2, the researcher divided the
clever students into each expert group; it was expected that they would be as controller in the group discussion. It would make the process of discussion
running fluently. It was planned based on the teacher’s advice as shown in the interview transcript below.
R: Ini kan saya sudah selesai cycle 1, dari pengamatan saya ada masalah yang muncul selama saya mengajar. Saya lihat kog kayaknya selama pembentukan
kelompok jigsaw maupun ahli kurang efektif karena sering ada murid yang lupa dan juga kurang merata dalam pembagian kelompoknya.
I had done the Cycle 1, from my observation, there were some problems in the teaching-learning process. I noticed that in grouping both jigsaw and expert group
was still ineffective because the students forgot the group and not balanced in dividing the group
ET: Sepertinya memang begitu mas, apalagi di proses diskusi di kelompok ahli kayaknya harus ada 1 siswa yang pintar sehingga menjadi kontrol di kelompok
ahli. Sehingga mereka diskusi dengan cepat dan tepat. Kalau kelompoknya dibuat secara permanen aja bagaimana mas? Caranya dengan mencamtumkan nama
anggota kelompoknya di papan nama kelompok baik jigsaw maupun ahli.
I think so especially in the expert group should be one clever student as the controller in there so the discussion would be quick fast and right. How about
making the group permanently? The way was by writing their name in the board name group both jigsaw and expert.
