Conclusion
The reason why the researcher chose authentic materials used by preservice teacher in their teaching practice as topic to be researched was because
researcher had experienced in using authentic material in teaching practice. The
researcher found the advantages of using authentic materials in teaching practice
The researcher interested to find out the perspectives of pre-service teachers in
using authentic materials in their teaching practices, especially in English

had three purposes. First, it was aimed to explore type of authentic materials
commonly used by the pre-service teacher at EED of UMY during their teaching
practice. Second, it was intended to find the significances of used authentic
materials in the teaching process. Third, it was conducted to identify the
disadvantages of using the authentic material in the teaching process.
The result of this research shows that two kinds of authentic materials
were commonly used by pre-service teacher at EED of UMY. Fist, printed
authentic materials such as picture, newspaper, magazine, and literature. Second,
auditory authentic materials are also used by pre-service teacher such as video,
47
song, and movie. The finding of this research also shows that the significant of
using authentic materials in the teaching practice of pre-service teacher at EED of
UMY. The significances were divided into two categories. First, significances of
using authentic materials for teacher. They are; the authentic materials were easy
to get for teacher, authentic materials were can be used for teaching multiple
skills, and authentic materials made the teacher become more creative. Second
were the significances of using authentic materials for students. Authentic
materials made the students’ motivated and interested in learning process.
Furthermore, the finding of this research shows that the disadvantages of using
authentic materials in the teaching practice of pre-service teacher at EED of
UMY. In line with the significant of using authentic materials the disadvantages
of using authentic materials were also in two categories. First was the significant
for teacher. They are; the authentic materials out-date easily, and make teacher
should be more careful in selecting the materials. Second was a disadvantage of
using authentic materials for the students that authentic materials had difficult
content (vocabulary and language), so it made the students easy to confused.
Recommendation
This study also provided suggestion regarding to authentic materials used
by pre-service teacher at EED of UMY in their teaching practice Thus, the

teacher. Besides, the institution can supply the guidance of authentic materials
conducted in teaching course regarding the weaknesses of authentic material.
For other researchers. Other researchers might use this research for their
references in doing the further research deals with authentic materials. Lastly, the
other researchers hopefully can find out more detail information and expand the
