CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background

Language is a tool between two persons or more. It is usually used by people in their daily activities. Language is important to us because without language we will not get knowledge and even we will not know about new things in our life. Language also used when we want to say with a native speaker. In this case, people need to say something because language determines how much the education they have.

In the globalization era, we know that English is very important to all of people. English has been an international language, so many people around the world already speak English. In fact, English is needed because wherever and whenever we are, we nearly always use English.

In Indonesia, all level of schools has used English in their studying process. It can see that English use by kindergarten until university. For example, Most of the Elementary school and Junior High school is used an International basic. English is used in the school because the student wants to improve their English quality. On the other hand, they will master English very well.

As we know, we will not find the short way to master English quickly. Because of that problem, we have to master all of skill that English have. There are four skills that use in English. There are reading, speaking, listening, and

CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW

In chapter II we present literature review related to the topic of discussion in this report. There are five main topics, they are the definition of teaching, learning, reading and descriptive text.

A. Teaching

According to Brown teaching means showing or helping someone to learn how to do something, giving instruction, guiding in the study of something, providing with knowledge, causing to know or understand (Brown, 1990:7). “Teaching is guiding and facilitating learning, enabling the learner to learn, setting the condition for learning” (Brown, 1990:7).

According to Oxford Advanced learner’s dictionary teaching is to give somebody information about a particular subject, to help somebody learn something (Hornby, 1995: 1225).

From the definition of teaching above, we can conclude that teaching is giving information or knowledge to someone before people knows about material until people knows and understand.

B. Learning

According to Hamilton and Gathala (1994:9) learning and instruction learning is relatively permanent change in an individual’s knowledge or behavior that result from previous experience.


(17)

perpustakaan.uns.ac.id digilib.uns.ac.id

5

A more specialized definition by Kimble and Garmezy learning is a relatively permanent change in a behavioral tendency and is the result of

reinforced practice (Kimble and Garmezy, 1963:133). Brown stated “Learning is acquiring or getting of knowledge of a subject or a skill by study, experience, or instruction”.(Brown,1990:7)

It means that learning is a chance in knowledge or behavior. This part of the definition reflects the fact that theorist differ in their view of what is learned from previous experience. Behavioral theorist focus on changes in knowledge. It means that learning is process to get information or knowledge resulting someone know or understand something and make a permanent change in behavior.

According to brown, it is the component of the definition of learning: 1. Learning is acquisition or “getting”.

2. Learning is retention of informal or skill.

3. Learning implies storage system, memory, cognitive organization. 4. Learning involves active, conscious focus on and acting upon events

outside or inside the organism.

5. Learning is relatively permanent but subject to forgetting.

6. Learning involves some from of practice, perhaps reinforced practice. 7. Learning is a change in behavior.

(Brown, 1990:7)

In order for teacher to give meaningful attention to the personal made of students, as discussed in the preceding pages, they must understand clearly their own positions regarding reading. In any case, the following is one approach to clarify and develop your views in reading. The effort will be, and, it turn, set the stage for selecting broad goals for specifics learners. Reading is a complex activity that involves both perception and thought. It consists of two related processes: word recognition and comprehension. Reading is the process of constructing meaning from written texts. It is a complex skill requiring the coordination of a number of interrelated sources of information (Anderson et al., 1985:117).

Reading is the process of constructing meaning through the dynamic interaction among: the reader’s existing knowledge, the information suggested by the text being read, and the context of the reading situation.(http:/blog.beswandjarum.com/zulkifliarsyad/2009/10/24/definition-of-reading/)

From the definition above, it can be defined that reading is process giving information, knowledge to the readers by constructing meaning and the many vocabularies there. We also use high concentration for reading to get a meaning of a story.

 Scanning

Scanning means to read very quickly and look for just the information does you need. For example, scanning a telephone directoy:

You are looking for it quickly.

You know what you are searching for (key words and names).

You „see’ every item on the page, but you don’t necessarily read the pages – you are not looking for. Thus, when you discover the key words being searched for, you will be unable to recall the exact content of the page.

(Butler, 2003:7).  Skimming

When you read quickly to gain a general impression as to whether the text is of use to you. You are not necessarily searching for a specific item and key words. Skimming provides an „overview’ of he text. Skimming is useful to look at chapter/section headings, summaries and opening paragraphs. It is used to quickly identify the main ideas of a text. The purpose of skimming.

To check relevance of text.

Sets the scene for the more concentrated effort that is follow, if the text is useful.

 Light

Reading for leisure tends to be 'light':

Read at a pace which feels comfortable. Read with understand.

Skim the boring, irrelevant passages.

An average light reading speed is 100-200 words per minute. This form of reading does not generally require detailed concentration.(http://ababasoft.com/speedreading/five_types_of_reading.ht m)

 Word by word

el of concentration. Some material is not readily understood and so requires a slow and careful analytical read. People use this type of reading for unfamiliar words and concepts, scientific formulae. It can take up to an

hour just to read a few lines of

text.(http://wik.ed.uiuc.edu/index.php/Whole_word_approach)

 Reading to study

A method of reading for study is called SQ3R2, (SQ3R, SQ4R, PSQ5R) the aim is to understand the material in some depth. The method involves five simple steps; Survey, Question, Read, Recall and Review.

Survey: skim through to gain an overview and not key points.

Question: devise questions you hope the text will answer.

Read: slowly and carefully.

Recall: from memory, write down the main points made by the chapter.

Review: revisit your questions - compare these to your recall and establish how well the text has answered them; fill in any gaps by further

reading and note

-taking.(http://abasoft.com/speedreading/five_tye s_of_reading.htm)

 Speed reading

Speed reading is a skill that is acquired after much reading. I started heavily reading at the age of 10 and by the time I was 12-13 I could speed read flawlessly. That skill has not degraded at all over the years. I think the more you read the more your mind adapts to it, to were eventually it will pick out the most important words, naturally to were with less words you understand it as well as if you read every word or the whole

E. Descriptive text

According to Pardiyono descriptive text is a text is a text is which describes a particular person, place, or thing. In a descriptive text, the writer usually uses the simple present tense. In each genre, the teacher has to understanding about communicative purpose, rhetorical structure, and grammatical pattern or linquistic items.

Here is the structure of a descriptive text:

1. Identification : Identifies phenomenon to be described

2. Description : Describes parts, qualities, characteristics of the person or something that described.

(Pardiyono,M.Pd,2007:1).

According to the explanation above descriptive text is a process that use in reading skill. It is a kind of genre there and it is used for detail characteristic.

The writer did job training for one a half months, January 24 to March 26, 2011. The first activity done by the writer before doing the teaching and learning process was the class observation. The writer did the class observation on January 22, 2011. According to the agreement between the writer and the English teacher, the writer accepted the responsibility of Teaching English to two of six first grade classes. The writer replaced Mrs. Ani Widowati in teaching English in class VIIA and VIIC. Each class of first grade classes consists of about 42 students. The English lesson was conducted three times a week to each class. It took about 80minutes per meeting.

The classrooms in SMP Negeri 2 Jaten were comfortable. The classrooms have standard facilities, such as chairs, desks, whiteboards, brooms, mirrors, etc. There are also many pictures made by the students on the wall, and class data.

During the job training, the writer had a responsibility to teach English to two classes, they were VIIA and VIIC. Each class consisted of 42 students, 18 of them were female and 24 others were male. The class VIIA had the English class on Monday in the fifth and sixth sessions, from 10.15 a.m until 11.35 a.m and on Saturday in the third sessions, from 08.40 a.m until 09.20. The class VIIC had English class on Wednesday in the fifth and sixth sessions from 10.15 a.m until 11.35 a.m and Saturday in the fifth and sixth sessions, from 10.15 a.m until 11.35 a.m. The students were friendly and most of them had their interest in English. They did all of the tasks and the homework given.

Media is one thing that is very important in teaching and learning process. The media used by SMPN 2 Jaten were hand-book and student worksheet. In SMPN 2 Jaten, the students and teacher used English on Sky as the hand book and LKS Bahasa Inggris SMP kelas VII as the students’ worksheet. The book itself is a handbook intended for junior high school.

The Writer did the teaching and learning process based on those source books. However, the writer are also allowed to add several materials to the curriculum and beneficial for teaching and learning process.

B.3. The Method

Method was an important factor for the teaching and learning process. A method played a role as a guidance to help the teacher in teaching. It was the planning of the teacher when the teacher will teach in teaching and learning process.

In SMPN 2 Jaten, English teacher teacher generally used the grammar-translation method. It was used because almost all of the students did not understand and were not usual with English. However, it has also some weakness and learning process effectively. On the other hand, students also tried to use English in class for communicating with the teacher. One of types of technique used in study class was reading. The writer gave example by reading in front of the class and the students followed to read it. The teacher also explained the meaning of the text and tried to give examples by spell the word. On the other hand, the writer also explained what the genre was there.

16

B.4. The lesson plan

A lesson plan was so important in teaching. By using the lesson plan, the writer could manage the time of teaching. The lesson plan also gave several advantages to the writer. Before teaching, the writer always made the lesson plan to help in explaining the material. This was an important point to a teacher if we want to be successful in teaching activities. Lesson plan was used as a teacher guidance and it is arranged in order to make the delivery process of the material can be easily accepted by the students. Besides, the allocation of time can bee arranged according to the schedule that has been deermined.

C. The Problems in teaching Descriptive text to the seven Grade of SMP Negeri 2 Jaten

In teaching and learning process, there were some problems that the writer met and the writer had to solve these problems.

1. Less self confidence

It was a problem of almost all the students. The student who has less self confidence will be an inactive student. In this case, the students should try to improve their ability and make their self confidence bigger than before.

In both of the classes, there were several students that have less self confidence. They were just silent and do not active in the class. When the writer

17

asked them, they just said that they did not know the answer. On the other cases, they were shy when stand up in front of the class.

2. Limited Vocabulary

The other problem was limited vocabulary. When the writer asked them about the meaning of some words, they just silent and said that they did not know the meaning. In this case, the writer had to explain the meaning and how to pronounce it. Before that, the writer also asked them to open their dictionary. It is used to help them in knowing the meaning of a word. In other ways, the writer also gave many assessments in reading. It was done for adding their vocabulary.

A. Discussion

English lesson is a compulsory subject given at all junior high schools in Indonesia. Moreover, English is one of the subjects to be tested in the final exam. It means that it is one factor that influences whether a student can graduate or not. In SMP Negeri 2 Jaten, English lesson was taught by four teachers. One of them is Mrs. Ani Widowati. She was the writer’s consultant during the job training.

1.1 The class Observation

The first time that the writer did was observing how the English teacher taught the students in class VIIA. This observation was done on January 22, 2011. The writer saw the teacher manage the class very well. The English teacher covers the whole 42 students in that class. She could persuade the students to keep silent and pay attention to the lesson. The students seemed very interested to the lesson carried out by Mrs. Ani.

The method used by Mrs. Ani was indeed the direct method. Mrs. Ani used her English language, but almost all of the students did not understand and respond to what Mrs. Ani said. Mrs. Ani used mother tongue to help her in explaining the material.

1.2 The teaching practice

After doing class observation the writer conducted her own teaching in class VIIA and VIIC. Firstly, the writer was introduced to all students of class VIIA by Mrs. Ani. During the introduction, the students were quite interested. They were silent during the introduction, but when Mrs. Ani gone out of the class, the students became so noisy. Almost all of them were talking to their friends without paying attention to the writer, and many students were walking and running in the class. It made the writer difficult to teach. The writer needed to spend much time to overcome the situation. The writer remembered what Mrs. Ani said before about how difficult to handle the class. The writer talked more

loudly and knocked at the table when the student made noise. It happened in most of the meetings. In the third and next meeting most of the students were willing to respect the writer and pay attention to the lesson. The writer realized that teaching was not as easy as the writer had thought before.

In the first meeting, the condition in class VIIA was very noisy. Many students did not pay attention to the material that the writer was giving, so they did not understand when the writer asked them. The situation could be controlled by the writer. When the writer asked the students to do the task in front of the class, almost all of the male student was willing to go to the front but no one of the female was not. The other problem of the students was they were ashamed to make questions.

In the next meeting, the writer taught about reading skill. The writer asked the students to open their books and the writer gave examples how to read with correct pronunciation, and then the students followed. The big problem was that they were not familiar with the words in the text, so most of them pronounced then incorrectly. They did not master the vocabulary so when the writer asked them they did not know, but they were willing to ask questions to the writer.

In the third meeting, the writer decided to teach descriptive text. The types of teaching descriptive text consist of several processes, they are opening (greeting), BKOF, modeling, practice and test, and closing the lesson. In teaching the descriptive text, the writer used the lesson plan that the writer had already made before.

The first step of the teaching process is opening. The writer firstly greeted the students. In the beginning of the class, the writer always greets the student. It is always doing by the writer in order to make the student apply their English ability such as greeting their daily activities when they met someone. This greeting was done by teacher and the student:

The teacher: “Good morning, student” The students: “Good morning, miss” The teacher: “How are you?”

The students: “I am fine, thank you. And you?” The teacher: “I am fine”

After the writer greet student, the writer check the attendance by call their name one by one. It is to know the student readiness and the condition of class.

After that, the writer started to give the lesson by giving warming up first by asking some question in English related to the topic which would discussed.
