The Contribution of Task-Based Language Teaching in Providing Grammar Review For Nursing Academy Students
Get PDFEnglish in Indonesian tertiary level is usually provided as spesific English (for academic or occupational purposes). The method of grammar teaching in this context remains problematic. Grammar in tertiary level is used in a subordinate role; the primary focus is on functional language. Besides, presenting grammar in higher education is challenged by the students’ interest.
Meanwhile, the fashionable Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) has been verified as a favorable approach for various language teaching contexts. TBLT is an offshoot of communicative approach that can balance ‘focus on form’ and ‘focus on meaning’. Still, there has not been sufficient research that focuses on seeing the impact of TBLT to grammar instruction.
This study investigates the contribution of TBLT in providing grammar review for nursing academy students. The problem stated by Richards (2002) of whether learners develop acceptable levels of grammatical proficiency through task-based approach hopefully can get a clarification from this study. This study is expected to give pieces of consideration for curriculum developers and teachers.
This research which conducted at AKPER Kamanre Palopo applies a pre-experimental design. The data are collected using test, questionnaire, and observation. The result reveals that TBLT allows attention to grammar through focus on form at some of its stages and facilitates remedial grammar activity and can also develop the students’ intrinsic motivation to review grammar
