Get PDFThe main objective of this research is to investigate the students’ English proficiency after learning the subject for six years; 3 years at Junior High School and 3 years at Senior High School. This research was conducted at some higher schools in Lampung. The higher schools involved both public and private institutions. The samples were chosen purposefully; students who were taught by the researcher. In overall there were 40 samples involved in this research. At the beginning of the class, before the students were taught by the researcher, they were given a multiple-choice test that measured the students’ knowledge of English grammar. The result showed the mean score that the students got was 47.5, which meant very low English proficiency. It indicates that a long-duration learning of English does not guarantee that students will be proficient in that language

It indicates that utilizing new methods while maintaining good aspects of pre-existing methods has a positive impact on students’ achievemen
Undergraduates’ Awareness of English Irregular Verbs
Get PDFThe objectives of this research were to find out undergraduates’ awareness of English irregular verbs and to find out what errors that the students made in using the irregular verbs. This research was conducted at University of Teknokrat Indonesia. The population of this research was the first semester students. There were 30 university students who were chosen as the samples. They were all S1 English Literature students. The data of this research were collected through a written task. The task was designed to measure the students’ ability in using irregular verbs in sentences telling about past events. There were 140 irregular verbs tested to the students. The result of the research showed that the undergraduates’ awareness of English irregular verbs is low; 22 (73.3%) out 30 students made errors in using English irregular verbs. The errors varied into three types; using the rule of regular verbs for irregular verbs, using simple form verbs for past events, and creating new words which did not exist in English vocabulary. The highest number of error was placed by applying the rule of regular verbs for irregular verbs with 14 incorrect verbs (53.8%), the second position was placed by using simple form verbs for past events with 9 incorrect verbs (34.6%), and the third position was placed by creating new words which did not exist in English vocabulary with 3 incorrect verbs (11.5%). The results of this study indicate that students in which English is a foreign language might still have insufficient English vocabulary when they come to higher schools.Keywords: Foreign language, error, irregular ver

PT. Berlian Laju Tanker is a shipping company in Jakarta and has eight
tankers and one of them is MT. Celosia. MT. Celosia as oil and chemical tanker
type II & III in carrying out tank cleaning and wall wash activities required
correct procedures in accordance with the guidelines in order to cope with the
high levels of chloride in the loading tank. Cases that occurred at MT. Celosia is a
tank that still has high chloride levels. Here the authors examine the factors that
cause chloride levels still contained in the tank and the steps that must be taken in
cleaning the tank so that the crew can minimize the chloride levels in the loading
tank.
In relation to this, in the writing of this thesis the author uses qualitative
methods, as well as the observation of data observations that the author does by
observing a direct research object, conducting interviews with a number of
respondents and supported by documentation method for more accurate research,
as well as data analysis techniques using fishbone analysis.

the results obtained during the implementation of the research, namely to know
the steps that the crew should take in cleaning the tank so that the rate The
chloride in the tank becomes reduced so that the tank is fit and to know the cause
of failure in the tank's cleaning process so that the tank is spared from the chloride
level. To anticipate the high levels of chloride in the tank and prevent the delay in
loading, tank cleaning must be done in accordance with the Tank Cleaning Guide
with good planning, supported by adequate facilities, the crew of the ship And

Exploring Multimodality in Teaching Writing: A Narrative Inquiry of an English Teacher in an Indonesian Senior High School
Get PDFUsing multimodality in teaching second language writing allows English teachers to creatively combine two or modes in describing what goes on at each stage of the writing process. Studies confirmed that multimodality in teaching English as a foreign language could help to activate classroom atmosphere and inspiring students’ motivation. However, studies focusing on multimodality in teaching writing are still limited. Thus, this study aims at exploring the modes employed by the teacher in teaching writing and investigating how the teacher combined those methods in describing each stage of the writing process. By using narrative inquiry, the researchers obtained the data mainly by using the semi-structured interview. The participant of this study was an English teacher in a high school. The findings stated that a teacher employed modes like visual display, classroom layout, voice quality, gesture, and body movement in teaching writing. The teacher then combined those modes in describing stages of the writing process by designing some activities involving students’ active participation and group work. This study has implications for teachers and researchers interested in exploring multimodality in teaching English particularly in writing and generally in other skills, listening, speaking, and reading
