DEVELOPING ENGLISH INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALSFOR YEAR X STUDENTS OF MUSIC STUDY PROGRAM

By Winda PrestiMawarsih10202244090

ABSTRACT

The objectives of this research were 1) to describe the target and learningneeds of year X students of Music Study Program, 2) to develop the appropriateEnglish instructional materials for year X students of Music Study Program basedon the Curriculum 2013.

This research was a Research and Development (R & D) study. Theprocedure of the research followed the materials development process proposedby Jolly and Bolitho (1998) with some adaptations in order to make the researchfeasible within the setting of the research. The steps of the research consists offive steps: 1) identification of needs, 2) planning,3) production of the materials, 4)evaluation, 5) revision. There were two types of data collection instruments usedin this research: questionnaires and interview guide. The questionnaires were usedto collect data for the needs analysis and for the materials evaluation. Thequestionnaires were used to collect data for the needs analysis and for thematerials evaluation. The interview guidewas also used to conduct needs analysisby interviewing an English teacher in SMK N 2 Kasihan. There were two types ofdata obtained in this research: 1) quantitative data from the needs analysis andexpert judgment questionnaires, 2) qualitative data from the interview. Thequantitative data were analyzed quantitatively while the qualitative data wereanalyzed qualitatively.

The developed materials consist of three units. Each units of the materialsconsists of different number of tasks but they have the same unit design thatconsists of four parts: introduction, main lesson, reinforcement, and fun part. Thematerials were then being evaluated in terms of the appropriateness of the content,the appropriateness of the language, the appropriateness of the presentation, andthe appropriateness of the layout. Based on the data conversion table to convertquantitative data into qualitative ones, the results of the materials evaluationshowed that the materials fall into the “good” category as the mean value of allaspects of the developed materials is 3.14 which is in range of “good” categorythat is 2.5 < x < 3.24.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background of the Study

Language is a powerful tool for communication. It is language that

becomes a medium for people to communicate what is in their mind, to

discuss about things with others, to get things done, to socialize and to

maintain relationship, and likewise.

One of the languages that has become a medium of communication

internationally is English. English has become a tool for international

communication in many fields such as transportation, commerce, banking,

tourism, technology, diplomacy, and scientific research (Brown, 2001). It

becomes clear that the ability to communicate in English is necessary for

people in order to be able to function well in the society.

Considering the significance of English, Indonesian Ministry of

Education realizes the necessity to put English in the curriculum. In reference

with the Indonesian curriculum, Curriculum 2013, English is a compulsory

subject in secondary school. Secondary schools refer to junior high schools,

senior high schools, and not to mention vocational high schools.

Referring to Indonesian Law Number 20 Year 2003, vocational high

school is secondary school level of which the instruction process aims to equip

students with the skills and knowledge of particular fields and prepare them to

be able to work in particular fields. Therefore, English language instruction in

1

Page 20: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2

vocational high schools must be specifically designed to meet the students’

needs.

In line with the need of specifically designed language instruction for

particular study programs, ideally, the language instruction materials must be

specifically designed to meet the needs of particular students taking the course

as well. Instruction materials refer to anything useful for teachers or students

to facilitate their learning process such as videos, dictionaries, workbooks,

photographs, and newspaper (Tomlinson, 1998).

In addition, the shifting winds and changing sands of Indonesian

curriculum, from Curriculum 2006 to Curriculum 2013, makes it even more

necessary to develop materials that go in line with the principles upon which

the curriculum is based on. Curriculum 2013 puts scientific approach as the

basis of instructional process and highlights the integration of students’

characters, knowledge, and skills development into the instructional process.

These characteristics are different from the previous curriculum, Curriculum

2006.

With regard to those phenomena, the researcher considers it is

necessary to develop English materials for specific study program. The

materials are developed based on the Curriculum 2013 and aim to provide

English materials that fit the students’ and learning needs of particular study

program so that the English teaching and learning process can be meaningful

and interesting.

Page 21: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

B. Identification of the Problems

SMK N 2 Kasihan is one of the vocational high schools in Yogyakarta.

Formerly, it was named Sekolah Menengah Musik Yogyakarta. In 2007 (until

2013 before SBI program was diminished by Mahkamah Agung), this school

was one of the schools that implemented the SBI (international-standard

school) program. One of the criteria of an international-standard school is that

English becomes the language of instruction. Therefore, developing students’

English competence is one of the priorities of the school. However, it seems

that the English teaching and learning process has not been ideal yet.

Ideally, the materials for English language instruction in vocational

high school must be specifically designed to meet the needs of particular

students taking the course. However, the reality shows a far opposite fact.

The English teachers often employ irrelevant materials or simply use

materials for general English while as a matter of fact the teachers are well-

informed that they are teaching students of a particular study program in a

vocational school. It is not for a reason. The main reason is because it is

difficult to find English materials which are ready to use and relevant with the

needs of the students.

The most obvious and most common form of materials supporting a

language instruction come trough textbooks (Brown, 2001). However,

textbooks available in stores are mostly textbooks for general English. The

textbook for English language instruction for students of Music Study

Program is not available in the market.

Page 22: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4

The solution for this problem is teachers themselves develop materials

that suit the students’ needs and learning context. However, the teachers are

either having no time or lacking of the knowledge to develop materials for the

English instructional process. They are not well trained to either produce or

adapt and adopt materials to meet their students’ needs and the learning

context. Rather than developing learning materials that suit their students’

needs and learning context in order to achieve the goal of the instructional

process, teachers simply use the available materials they can find in the easiest

way.

Beside the problems related to the materials that are irrelevant to the

students’ needs and learning context, the recent change of the curriculum from

Curriculum 2006 to Curriculum 2013 also triggers another problem. The

implementation of the curriculum is not accompanied by the availability of the

materials for the English language instruction.

The implementation of the new curriculum should be equipped with all

of the components that support the instructional process, such as syllabus,

media, and materials. However, the materials for English language instruction

for year X, XI, and XI are not available yet.

As the result, teachers find it even more difficult to find materials that

must not only meet their students’ needs but also the requirement of the

Curriculum 2013. They also find it even harder to develop their own materials

as they are also lacking of how to apply the scientific approach and integrate

the development of students’ character, knowledge, and skills to the

Page 23: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

5

instructional process that the curriculum is emphasizing on. This condition,

then, gives teachers no choice but to carry on the instructional process the way

they used to do before Curriculum 2013 is implemented and use the materials

that they can find at ease though the materials are irrelevant with the students’

needs.

C. Limitation of the Problem

Conducting a research that covers all the problems stated in the

previous section will be a very hard and long work. In other words, it is not

feasible to conduct a research that at a time tries to find the solution for all the

identified problems. This research, therefore, focuses on the development of

English instructional materials for year X Music Study Program at SMK N 2

Kasihan.

D. Formulation of the Problems

1. What are the target needs of year X students of Music Study Program in

terms of English teaching and learning context?

2. What are the learning needs of year X students of Music Study Program in

terms of English teaching and learning context?

3. What are the appropriate English instructional materials for year X

students of Music Study Program based on Curriculum 2013?

Page 24: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

6

E. The Objectives of the Research

The objectives of this research are:

1. to describe the target needs of year X students of Music Study Program

in terms of English teaching and learning context;

2. to describe the learning needs of year X the students of Music Study

Program in terms of English teaching and learning context;

3. to develop English instructional materials that best suit the students’

and learning needs of year X students Music Study Program based on

Curriculum 2013.

F. The Significances of the Research

a. For the English Education Department

It is expected that this research can be a reference for further English

materials development.

b. For teachers

It is expected that the developed English materials can be a resource for

the teaching and learning process.

c. For students

It is expected that the English materials can help year X students of Music

Study Program learning English.

CHAPTER II

LITERATURE REVIEW AND CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

This chapter presents the theoretical review and the conceptual framework

of the research. In the literature review, the researcher examines some theories

underlying the research. In the conceptual framework, the researcher relates the

literature review to the research.

A. Literature Review

1. Curriculum 2013

a. Curriculum 2013 in General

Curriculum 2013 is the newest curriculum applied in Indonesia. It

applied for the first time in the academic year of 2013/ 2014. In reference to

the Regulation of Indonesian Minister of Education Number 70 Year 2013,

this curriculum aims to enable Indonesian people to be faithful, productive,

creative, innovative and affective human beings in order to be able to take

part in all walks of life.

This curriculum is characterized by the application of scientific

approach in the instructional process in all subject matters in every level of

education. Scientific approach in instructional process tries to engage

students in seven steps of inquiry: observing, questioning, experimenting,

analyzing data, presenting, making conclusion, and creating (Sudarwan,

2013 in BSNP, 2013). McCollum (2003) in BSNP (2013) proposes four

characteristics of scientific approach as the following.

7

Page 26: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

8

1. Foster a sense of wonder;2. Encourage observation ;3. Push for analysis;4. Require communication.

The implementation of scientific approach in the instructional process

engages learners in five stages of instruction. The stages are as follows

(BSNP, 2013).

Table 2.1 Stages of Instructional Process Based on Scientific Approach

Stages Instructional Activities1. Observing - Reading;

- Listening;- Observing a phenomena

2. Formulating questions - Questioning the information thatstudents cannot find during theobservation

- Questioning to gain additionalinformation for what students havebeen inquired during the observation

- Questions can be in the form offactual questions or hypotacticquestions

- Creating atmosphere that foster thestudents’ curiosity

3. Collecting data - Experimenting- Extensive reading- Observing particular phenomena- Interviewing expert

4. Analyzing data - Manipulating information gainedthrough the observation andquestioning

- Manipulating information gained onpurpose to finding solution forparticular problem or answer forparticular question

5. Communicating - Presenting the results of theobservation and analysis in spokenand/ or written manner

Page 27: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

9

In addition to the implementation of scientific approach, Curriculum

2013 also emphasizes the integration of the development of character,

knowledge, and skills in the instructional process of every subject. It is

reflected in the organization of the competences.

The organization of the competences in the curriculum is divided into

two types: core competences and basic competences. Core competences

consist of four aspects: religiousness, social characters, knowledge, and

skills. These competences become the basis of the development of basic

competences. In other words, basic competences are core competences

broken down into further details so that the competences are more feasible

and achievable.

The implication of the application of the curriculum in the

instructional process is the instructional process must be carried out by

taking several things into consideration. What to take into consideration is

the instructional process must be: (1) student-centred; (2) interactive; (3)

multi-dimension; (4) team-based learning; (5) encouraging students to be

active learners; (6) involving multimedia to foster the instructional process;

(7) taking into consideration students’ needs and potential at individual

level; (8) multidiscipline learning; and (9) developing students’ critical

thinking.

b. English Language Instruction for Vocational High School

Referring to the Regulation of Minister of Education of Indonesia

Number 70 Year 2013, English is one of the compulsory subjects in

Page 28: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1010

vocational high schools. Time allocation for English instruction in

vocational school is 2 x 45 minutes/ week.

Based on the Curriculum 2013, English instruction has five

characteristics. Following are the five characteristics (Indonesian Ministry of

Education and Culture, 2013).

1. The instruction process focuses on developing students’communicative competence.

2. The instruction process engages students to read andcomprehend a text then summarize and present it with theirown language.

3. The instruction process trains students and familiarizes themto the process of creating systematic, logic, and effective textstrough a series of tasks.

4. The instruction process provides students with the knowledgeof the genres of texts.

5. The instruction process attempts to enables students to expresstheir opinions and knowledge with fluency and accuracy.

As mentioned earlier, Curriculum 2013 sets core competences and

basic competences as the framework of what students have to achieve. The

curriculum for English for vocational high school consists of four core

competences which are further elaborated in a set of basic competences.

Similar to the core competences for the other level of education,

core competences of English curriculum for vocational high school based on

Curriculum 2013 consist four aspects: religiousness; social characters,

knowledge, and skills. What makes the English curriculum for vocational

high school is different from the English curriculum for the other levels of

education is the basic competences of knowledge and skills.

Page 29: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1111

The basic competences under the core competence of knowledge

attempt to enable students to achieve the knowledge of how to introduce

themselves properly; how to give a compliment and give a respond to a

compliment; how to express care and give a respond to an expression of

caring; how to express an intention; how to congratulate and give a respond

to a congratulation; how to give questions and tell about a past event; how to

describe someone, historical objects, and recreational places; how to analyze

a recount text; how to analyze a narrative text; and how to recognize the

social functions and linguistic features of a song. While the basic

competences under the core competence of skills consist of competences

that students have to achieve in order to be able to put the basic competences

of knowledge into practices. The complete version of core and basic

competences of the English curriculum is provided in the appendix.

As mentioned in the previous section, Curriculum 2013

emphasizes the implementation of Scientific Approach in the instructional

process in the classroom. This approach consists of five stages of learning:

observing, questioning, exploring, associating, and communicating. In the

case of English instructional process, there are not only five stages, but six

stages. The six stages are: observing, questioning, exploring, associating,

communicating, and creating. With regard to the additional sixth stage of

instructional process, the instructional process of English based on Scientific

Approach can be briefly described as follow:

Page 30: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1212

Table 2.2 Stages of English Instructional Process based onScientific Approach

Stages Instructional Activities1. Observing Students observe a spoken or written

text and make a list of items they wantto know in order to understand/ producea text of particular types.

2. Formulating questions Students formulate questions based onthe list of items they want to know andpropose temporary answers for thequestions.

3. Collecting data Students collecting information toanswer the questions that they havemade before.

4. Analyzing data Students identify relationships amongthe information that they have collectedto find out patterns to answer theirquestions.

5. Communicating Students communicate the results oftheir analysis in spoken and/ or writtenmanner.

6. Creating Students create their own text(s) ofparticular types.

c. Students of Music Study Program as ESP Learners

SMK N 2 Kasihan is the only vocational high school majoring in

music in Yogyakarta. There are seventeen branches of music study program:

violin; viola; cello; contra bass; flute; oboe; clarinet; fagot; saxophone;

French horn; trumpet; trombone; tuba; piano; guitar; percussion; and vocal.

Based on the preliminary observation, the students of music study program

are really in need to master English for both passive and active

communication. They need English for both academic and non-academic

context.

Page 31: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1313

The academic needs refer to the use of English in context where

English is required for further academic study (Mackay, 1978). While the

non-academic needs, in this case, refer to job needs where English is

required in order to perform a particular job (Mackay, 1978).

Refering to the reasons underlying why the students are in need to

master English, the students belong to ESP learners. As mentioned by

Hutchinson and Waters (1987) what distinguishes ESP and general English

is the awarness towards the needs of the students. It is on purpose to provide

relevant English language instructions that fit the students’ needs. ESP as an

approach is underlying all the elements in the English instruction including

the materials.

2. English for Specific Purposes

English for Specific Purpose is an approach in English language

instruction (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987: 19). This approach focuses on the

instructional process for specific occupational or educational setting. The

emerging of this approach was originated by three reasons: the demands of a

Brave New World, a revolution in linguistics, and the learner-centered

language instruction (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987).

a. Definition of English for Specific Purposes

According to Hutchinson and Waters (1987:19), "ESP is an

approach to language teaching in which all decisions as to content and

method are based on the learner's reason for learning." This approach

emphasizes on teaching specific kinds of language and communicative

Page 32: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1414

skills needed for particular roles (Richards, 2006: 12). In other words,

ESP is designed to meet specified needs of the learner and related in

content to particular disciplines, occupations and activities.

In attempts to meet the needs of particular learners, course

developers have to find out what the learners need to do with the target

situation (target needs) and what the learners need to do in order to learn

(learning needs) (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987). This, then, led to the

discipline of needs analysis.

b. Needs Analysis

Needs analysis is the use of observation, surveys, interviews,

situation analysis, and analysis of language samples collected in different

settings in order to determine the kinds of communication learners would

need to master if they were in specific occupational or educational roles

and the language features of particular settings. The focus of needs

analysis is to determine the specific characteristics of a language when it

is used for specific rather than general purposes. (Richards, 2006).

The analysis of target needs focuses on three areas: necessities,

lacks, and wants (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987). Necessities are what the

learners need to know in order to function effectively in the target

situation. Then, finding out the learners’ lacks, ones can examine what

the learners have known already. The information about what the learners

have known already is the base to determine what necessities that the

Page 33: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1515

learners lack of. Analysing learners’ wants is related with questions such

as “what do the learners wish to learn?”

In addition to the analysis of target needs is the analysis of learning

needs. The analysis of learning needs tries to figure out anything needed

to carry out the instructional process. It focuses on figuring out what the

learners need in order to learn the language (Hutchinson and Waters,

1987).

c. Materials Development in ESP

One of the most characteristic features of ESP is materials writing

(Hutchinson and Waters, 1987). The main purpose of materials writing in

ESP is to provide learning materials that fit specific subject area of

particular learners. Thus, materials for ESP must be developed by

focusing on the learners’ needs.

Following is the model of materials writing of which purpose is to

provide coherent framework for the integration of the various aspects of

learning, while at the same time allowing enough room for creativity and

variety to flourish (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987).

Figure 2.1 A Materials Design Model (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987:109)

Page 34: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1616

The model consists of four elements: input, content focus,

language focus, and task. The primary focus of each unit of the materials

is the task. The language and content are drawn from input and are

selected according to what the learners will need in order to do the task.

Input can be in the forms of texts, dialogues, videos, recordings, or any

forms of visuals depending on the results of the needs analysis. Thus, the

materials should be designed to lead towards communicative task in

which learners are given the opportunity to use the content and language

knowledge they have built up by making use of the input, language focus,

and content focus through the units.

3. Content-Based Instruction

a. Definition of Content-Based Instruction

The popularity and wider applicability of CBI in English language

instruction have increased dramatically since the early 1990s (Stoller,

2002). It can be regarded as the result of the implementation of the

communicative approach to language teaching since the 1990s as this

instructional methodology is one of the current methodologies that are

regarded as the extension of Communicative Language Teaching

approach (Richards, 2006).

Content-Based Instruction refers to the teaching language through

exposure to content that is interesting and relevant to learners (Brinton,

2003). According to Richards (2006), content refers to the information or

subject matter that students learn or communicate through language

Page 35: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1717

rather than the language used to convey it. Further, Brinton (2003)

mentioned that this content serves several purposes. First, it provides a

rich context for the language classroom, allowing the teacher to present

and explain specific language features. Additionally, it provides for what

Stephen Krashen (1985), cited in Brinton (2003), calls comprehensible

input—challenging language that is slightly above the current linguistic

level of the students which provides the foundation for successful

language acquisition.

Accordingly, Stoller (2002) states that Content-Based Instruction

seeks to use content as a vehicle for developing language skills. Further,

she highlights that focus on content not only provides valuable real-world

knowledge, but also provides the basis for a meaning-based pedagogy

that goes beyond a focus on studying language divorced from the context

of its use. The meaningful learning principle (one of the principles of

Communicative Language Teaching—the approach that becomes the

base of ELT today) applies well in this instructional methodology.

Learners are focused on very useful, practical objectives as the subject

matter is perceived to be relevant to long term goals. This also increases

the intrinsic motivation that is so important to learning of any kind

(Brown, 2001).

Stoller (2002) notes four findings from research in educational and

cognitive psychology that emphasises the benefits of Content-Based

Instruction.

Page 36: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1818

1. Thematically organized materials, typical of content-based

classrooms, are easier to remember and learn (Singer, 1990).

2. The presentation of coherent and meaningful information,

characteristic of well-organized content-based curricula, leads to

deeper processing and better learning (Anderson, 1990).

3. There is a relationship between student motivation and student

interest—common outcomes of content-based classes—and a

student’s ability to process challenging materials, recall

information, and elaborate (Alexander, Kulikowich, & Jetton,

1994).

4. Expertise in a topic develops when learners reinvest their

knowledge in a sequence of progressively more complex tasks

(Bereiter & Scardamalia, 1993), feasible in content-based

classroom and usually absent from more traditional language

classroom because of the narrow focus on language rules or

limited time on superficially developed and disparate topics.

b. Theory of Language and Language Learning in Content-Based

Instruction

Content-Based Instruction sees language as a medium to convey

informational content (Larsen-Freeman, 2000). This way of viewing

language is then leads the advocates of CBI into a believe that the best

way to learn a language is by using content as the driving force of

classroom activities and to link all the different dimensions of

Page 37: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

1919

communicative competence (Richards, 2006). Further, Richards (2006)

notes three assumptions about language learning underpinned CBI.

1. People learn a language more successfully when they use the

language as a means of acquiring information, rather than as

an end in itself.

2. CBI better reflects learners’ needs for learning a second

language.

3. Content provides a coherent framework that can be used to

link and develop all of the language skills.

Brinton (2003) states that learners learn language optimally when

(1) language is being continually recycled throughout the unit; (2)

students are given multiple opportunities to use the new language they

acquire as they read, discuss, and write about particular topics. Therefore,

creating a learning environment that engages learners to deal with

particular linguistic items several times in particular context is the

keypoint of CBI. To be able to create such learning environment, the

educator practitioners should refer to the principles underlying CBI.

c. Principles of Content Based Instruction

Following are six principles of Content-Based Instruction proposed

by Briton (2003).

1. Base instructional decision on content rather than language

criteria.

Rather than selecting and sequencing what to include in

the instructional process based on levels of difficulty and

complexity of language items, Content-Based Instruction allows

Page 38: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2020

the choice of content to dictate or influence the selection and

sequencing of language items.

2. Integrate skills.

Content-Based Instruction uses an integrate skills

approach to language teaching, covering all language skills as

well as grammar and vocabulary. It is for content provides a

coherent framework that can be used to link and develop all of

the language skills (Richards, 2006). This skill integration

reflects what happens in the real-world communication that is

interaction involves multiple skills simultaneously (Brinton,

2003).

In the application of Content-Based Instruction, there is

no set sequence of skills to be taught. A lesson may begin with

any skill or with a focus on grammar or vocabulary as an

alternative (Brinton, 2003).

3. Involve students actively in all phases of the learning process.

Because Content-Based Instruction falls under more

general rubric of Communicative Language Teaching, the

content-based classroom is learner rather that teacher centred

(Littlewood, 1981 in Brinton, 2003). In learner-centred

instruction, students learn trough doing and are actively engaged

in the learning process. Central to Content-Based Instruction is

the belief that learning occurs not only trough exposure to the

Page 39: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2121

teacher’s input, but also trough peer input and interactions

(Brinton, 2003). Thus, learning, students assume active, social

roles in the classroom that involve interactive learning,

negotiation, information gathering, and the co-construction of

meaning (Lee and VanPatten, 1995 in Brinton, 2003).

4. Choose content for its relevance to students’ lives, interest, and

for academic goals.

The choice of content in Content-Based Instruction

ultimately depends on the students and instructional setting. In

many school context, content-based language teaching closely

parallels school subjects. Topics may also be drawn from

students’ occupational needs of be determined by general

interest inventories (Brinton, 2003).

5. Select authentic texts and tasks.

A key component of Content-Based Instruction is

authenticity—both of the text used in the classroom and the

tasks that learners asked to perform (Brinton, 2003). Hutchinson

and Waters define authentic texts as “taken from the target

situation and, therefore, not originally constructed for language

teaching purposes”. Then, on purpose to aim for authenticity of

task, the task(s) associated with given text should mirror those

that would take place in the real world (Brinton, 2003).

Page 40: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2222

6. Draw overt attention to language features.

The purpose of Content-Based Instruction is to expose

learners to authentic and comprehensible input with the goal of

their being able to use language for communicative purposes.

However, as Content-Based Instruction departs from some other

approaches to language teaching in its believe that

comprehensible input alone will not lead to successful language

acquisition (Brinton and Holten, 2001 in Brinton, 2003), its

practice should make use of awareness-raising tasks to draw

attention to specific language features found in the authentic

texts.

d. Techniques and Tasks Used in Content-Based Instruction

The techniques and tasks used in Content-Based Instruction are

familiar ones to anyone who practices Communicative Language

Teaching. The following techniques and tasks are considered reflecting

the principles of Content-Based Instruction as they involve the active

participation of learners in the exchange of content or theme-related

information (Brinton, 2003).

1. Pair and group work

Pair and group work are considered as the hallmark of

Communicative Language Teaching. In Content-Based

Instruction, they entail the discussion or exchange of

information related to the content unit.

Page 41: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2323

2. Information gap activities

Information gap activities are forms of pair works in

which the participants are each given different pieces of

information. Using only language, they must communicate to

fill in the missing gaps in information.

3. Jigsaw

It is a variation of information gap. First, students are

divided into “experts” groups with each group given a different

piece of information. Once the students in each group have

become familiar with the piece of jigsaw, they regrouped. Each

new group consists of at least one student from each of the

previous expert group. Students then share their expertise to

complete the task and report their findings to the rest of the

class.

4. Graphic organizer

This technique involves the use of visuals (such as

diagrams, tables, clusters, etc) that assist in organizing

information. Teachers may use these graphic organizers to

present information or guide students to brainstorm ideas.

Learners may also be asked to read or listen for key information

and then enter the information in the graphic organizers.

Page 42: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2424

5. Discussion and debate

These techniques involve opportunities for students to

express their own opinion about topics, in this case related to the

theme of the CBI unit.

6. Role-play

Role-play entails having students act out a situation.

Each participant is given information about the role and the

situation. Role play can involve two or more students. In CBI,

the role play would be connected to the overall unit theme or

topic.

7. Survey tasks

Survey tasks engage students to conduct a poll of people

(either inside or outside the classroom) to determine opinions on

a selected topic. These opinions are reported back to others,

usually in the form of a chart or table.

8. Process writing

This technique involves having students write multiple

drafts or papers. Each draft receives either comment from the

teacher or from a peer. Based on these comments, the student

writer revises the draft and resubmits it to the teacher for

evaluation.

Page 43: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2525

9. Problem solving

Problem solving involves students working in pairs or

groups to arrive at a solution to a given problem. The context of

the problem relates to the theme students have been studying in

the content unit.

10. Sequencing

This technique involves students rearranging events or

pieces of information into their logical order. This type of task is

especially useful in the teaching of reading and listening.

11. Ranking

Ranking involves students determining an order of listed

items based on their perceived importance. It is often done in

pairs or groups, with group members being asked to reach

consensus on the ordering. A designated reporter then shares the

ranking that has been determined with the class as a whole,

often providing a rationale for this ranking.

12. Values clarification

Values clarification involves students taking a stand

(agreeing or disagreeing) on controversial statement related to a

chosen topic. Usually done in pairs or groups, it often involves

asking students to come to consensus and then report on their

decision and their discussion to the rest of the class members.

Page 44: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2626

e. Roles of Learners and Teachers in Content-Based Instruction

As Content-Based Instruction is regarded as the extension of

Communicative Language Teaching approach (Richards, 2006), the roles

of learners and teachers in Content-Based Instruction are similar to the

ones belong to Communicative Language Teaching. Richards and

Rodgers (1985) and Nunan (1989), cited in Brinton (2003), characterize

some possible roles played by students in Content-Based Instruction as

follows: recipient/ listener; planner, interactor and negotiator, tutor of

other learners; and evaluator/ monitor of his/ her own progress. While

teachers’ roles are as follows: resource; task organizer; controller;

facilitator; prompter; and assessor.

f. Roles of Materials in Content-Based Instruction

Content-Based Instruction is regarded as the extension of

Communicative Language Teaching approach (Richards, 2006).

Therefore, it can be assumed that the role of materials in Content-Based

Instruction is similar to the one belong to Communicative Language

Teaching. The practitioners of Communicative Language Teaching view

materials as a way of influencing the quality of classroom interaction and

language use. Materials thus have the primary role of promoting

communicative language use (Richards and Rodgers, 1986).

Page 45: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2727

4. Instructional Materials

a. Definition of Instructional Materials

Much of the language teaching that occurs throughout the world

today could not take place without the extensive use of commercial

materials (Richards, 2001). The most obvious and most common form of

materials support for language instruction come trough textbooks

(Brown, 2001). As a matter of fact, materials in English language

instruction are not merely in the form of textbooks. Materials may take

the form of printed materials such as books, workbooks, worksheets, or

readers; non-print materials such as cassette of audio materials, videos, or

computer-based materials; materials that comprise both print and non-

print sources such as self-access materials and materials on the Internet

(Richards, 2001). In addition, materials may also be in the form of

magazines, newspapers, and TV programs.

According to Tomlinson (1998), materials in language

instructions refer to anything which is used by teachers or learners to

facilitate the learning of a language. There are two types of materials:

authentic materials and created materials (Richards, 2001). Authentic

materials refer the use of materials that were not originally developed for

pedagogical purposes (Richards and Schmidt, 2002). The examples of

authentic materials are the use of magazines, newspapers, advertisements,

news reports, photographs, videos, songs, and many others. Created

Page 46: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2828

materials refer to textbooks and other specially developed instructional

resources.

b. Roles of Materials in English Language Instruction

Instructional materials are a key component in most language

programs as they generally serves as the basis for much of the language

input that learners receive and the language practice that occurs in a

classroom (Richards, 2001). As a pedagogic device, material is an aid to

teaching and learning a foreign language (Littlejohn, 1998).

Figuring out the roles of materials in language instruction,

Tomlinson (2008) highlights that it is important to understand what

materials can do in faciilitating learners in their process of second

language acquisition first. Following is the list of what English language

instrcution can do in order to promote learners’ language acquisition and

development process (Tomlinson, 2008).

1. Some of them are providing a rich experience of different

genres and text types.

2. Some of them are providing an aesthetically positive

experience through the use of attractive illustration, design and

illustration.

3. Some of them are making use of multimedia resources to

provide a rich and varied experience of language learning.

4. Some of them are helping the learners to make some

discoveries for themselves.

Page 47: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

2929

5. Some of them are helping the learners to become independent

learners of the language.

6. Some of them are providing supplementary materials which

provide the learners with experience of extensive listening

and/or extensive reading.

7. Some of them are helping the learners to personali/.e and

localize their language learning experience.

Thus, it can be summarized that the roles of materials in language

instruction are:

1. as a resource for presentation materials of both spoken and

written language (Cunnigsworth, 1995 and Dudley Evans & St.

John 1998 in Richards, 2001)

2. as a source of activities for learner practice and communicative

interaction (Cunningsworth, 1995 in Richards, 2001)

3. as a reference source for learners on grammar, vocabulary,

pronunciation, and so on (Cunnigsworth, 1995 and Dudley

Evans & St. John 1998 in Richards, 2001)

4. as a source of stimulation and ideas for classroom activities

(Cunnigsworth, 1995 and Dudley Evans & St. John 1998 in

Richards, 2001)

5. as a syllabus (Cunningsworth, 1995 in Richards, 2001)

Page 48: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3030

6. as a support for less experienced teachers who have yet to gain

in confidence (Cunnigsworth, 1995 and Dudley Evans & St.

John 1998 in Richards, 2001)

c. Criteria of Good Materials

Tomlinson (1998) suggests that good language instructional

materials should have the following characteristics.

1. Materials should achieve impact.2. Materials should help learners feel at ease.3. Materials should help learners to develop confidence.4. What is being taught should be perceived by learners as relevant

and useful.5. Materials should require and facilitate learner self-investment.6. Learners must be ready to acquire the points being taught.7. Materials should expose the learners to language in authentic

use.8. The learners’ attention should be drawn to linguistic features of

the input.9. Materials should provide the learners with opportunities to use

the target language to achieve communicative purposes.10. Materials should take into account that the positive effects of

instruction are usually delayed.11. Materials should take into account that learners have different

learning styles.12. Materials should take into account that learners have differ in

affective attitudes.13. Materials should permit a silent period at the beginning of

instruction.14. Materials should maximize learning potential by encouraging

intellectual, aesthetic, and emotional involvement that stimulatesboth right and left brain activities.

15. Materials should not rely too much on controlled practice.16. Materials should provide opportunities for outcome feedback.

Page 49: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3131

5. Materials Development

It is important to understand the nature of materials development and

the process that are typically involved if quality materials are to be created

(Richards, 2001). In addition, it is also important to take into consideration

the factors that influence the process of materials development.

a. Definition of Materials Development

Materials development is the planning process by which a

teacher creates units and lessons within those units to carry out the goals

and the objectives of the course (Graves, 2000: 149). Similarly,

Tomlinson (1998) defines materials development as anything which is

done by writers, teachers, or learners to provide sources of language

input and to exploit those sources in ways which maximise the

likelihood of intake.

What teachers do in developing materials are creating, choosing

or adapting, and organizing materials and activities so that students can

achieve the objectives that will help them reach the goals of the course

(Graves, 2000: 150). This process of materials development aims to

create materials that can serve as resources for effective learning by

developing a sequence of activities that leads teachers and learners

through a learning route that is at an appropriate level of difficulty, is

engaging, that provides both motivating and useful practices (Richards,

2001).

Page 50: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3232

b. Process of Materials Development

Developing materials, materials developers go through various

series of steps. The process of materials writing that most materials

developer follows is a movement from the identification of a need for

materials to their eventual use in the classroom.

Jolly and Bolitho (1998) illustrates the process of materials

development as the following figure.

Figure 2.2 Models of Materials Development (Jolly and Bolithe, 1998)

The process of materials development is started with materials

developers identify a need to fulfill or a problem to solve by the creation

of materials. Following is the exploration of need in which the materials

developers explore the area of need or problem in terms of what

language, what meanings, what functions and so on. Then, the third step

is contextual realization. At this stage, materials developers propose new

materials based on the findings of suitable ideas, contexts or texts with

which to work. The next step is pedagogical realization in which

Page 51: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3333

materials developers choosing input and sources and selecting exercises

types. Then, following is the production of materials which involves the

consideration of layout, type size, visuals, reproduction, tape length, etc.

The sixth step, students’ use of the developed materials, is optional.

Materials developers may directly go to the evaluation stage as the

materials produced without students use the developed materials first.

c. Factors to Consider in Developing Materials

Graves (2000) identifies factors to consider as one is developing

language instruction materials. There are six factors to consider:

learners; learning; language; social context; activities/ task types;

materials.

Table 2.3 A List of Consideration for Developing Materials(Graves, 2000: 156)

A List of Consideration for Developing Materials(Graves, 2000: 156)

Learners1. make relevant to their experience and background2. make relevant to their target needs (outside of class)3. make relevant to their affective needs

Learning4. engage in discovery, problem solving, analysis5. develop specific skills and strategies

Language6. target relevant aspects (grammar, functions, vocabulary,

etc.)7. integrate four skills of speaking, listening, reading, and

writing8. use/ understand authentic texts

Social Context9. provide intercultural focus10. develop critical social awareness

Page 52: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

34

Activity/ Task Types

1. aim for authentic tasks2. vary roles and groupings3. vary activities and purposes

Materials

4. authentic (texts, realia)5. varied (print, visuals, audio, etc)

1. Unit Design and Development

a. Component of a Unit

A unit in a course or textbook is a teaching sequence that is normally

longer than a single lesson but shorter than a module. It consists of a group

of lessons planned around a single instructional focus. A unit, then,

attempts to provide a structured sequence of tasks that lead towards a

learning outcome (Richards and Schmidt, 2002).

Richards (2001) lists a set of checklist to identify the quality of a

unit. He argues that a unit of materials should:

(1) give learners something they can take away from the lesson;

(2) teach something learners feel they can use;

(3) give learners a sense of achievement;

(4) practice learning items in an interesting and novel way;

(5) provide a pleasurable learning experience;

(6) provide opportunities for success;

(7) provide opportunities for individual practice;

(8) provide opportunities for personalization;

(9) provide opportunities for self-assessment of learning.

From the list above, a conclusion of what should be in a unit of materials can bemade. Thus, a unit of materials should have the following components:

Page 53: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3535

1. warming up;2. main activities;3. evaluation;4. summary;5. reflection;6. vocabulary list;

7. fun part that providesriddles, quotes, shortinformation about particularthings relevant with thematerials, or any otherthings that support theinstructional materials.

b. Framework for Unit Design and Development

In order to be able to create units of instructional materials that are

well-structured, materials developers should have clear-cut framework

underlying the process of materials writing. A set of procedure to create a

linked instructional sequence proposed by Nunan (2004) can be taken

into consideration. Following is the procedure proposed by Nunan

(2004).

Table 2.4 A Pedagogical Sequence to Introduce a Task (Nunan, 2004)

Step 1 CommentSchema Building The first step is to develop a number

of schema-building exercises that willserve to introduce the topic, set thecontext for the task, and introducesome of the key vocabulary andexpressions that the students willneed in order to complete the task.

Step 2 CommentControlled Practice The next step is to provide students

with controlled practice in using thetarget language vocabulary, structuresand functions. This type of controlledpractice extends the scaffoldedlearning that was initiated in step 1.

Step 3 CommentAuthentic listening practice The next step involves learners in

intensive listening practice. This stepwould expose learners to authentic orsimulated conversation, which couldincorporate but extend the language

Page 54: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3636

from the model conversation in step2.

Step 4 CommentFocus on linguisticelements

The students get to take part in asequence of exercises in which thefocus is on one or more linguisticelements. Focus on linguisticelements is presented after thelearners are given the example of thetexts with the hope this will make iteasier for the learner to see therelationship between communicativemeaning and linguistic form thanwhen linguistic elements are isolatedand presented out of context as isoften the case in more traditionalapproaches.

Step 5 CommentProvide freer practice Provide freer practice means provide

learners the opportunity to movebeyond simple manipulation. Theyshould be encouraged to extemporize,using whatever language they have attheir disposal to complete the task.

Step 6 CommentIntroduce the pedagogicaltask

The final step in the instructionsequence is the introduction of thepedagogical task itself.

c. Task Continuity

Task continuity refers to the interdependence of tasks, task

components and supporting enabling skills within an instructional

sequence. In order to provide a structured sequence of tasks that lead

towards a learning outcome, the principles of task continuity must be

fulfilled.

In attempts to meet the requirement of task continuity, tasks must

be sequenced based on the logic themes and learning pathways.

Page 55: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3737

Therefore, the ‘psycholinguistics processing’ approach proposed by

Nunan (2004) should be taken into consideration.

The ‘psycholinguistic processing’ approach sequences tasks

according to the cognitive and performance demands made upon the

learner (Nunan, 2004: 125). It proposes an instructional sequence which

requires learners to undertake activities which become increasingly

demanding, moving from comprehension-based procedures to controlled

production activities and exercises, and finally to ones requiring authentic

communicative interaction.

The following ten-step sequence provides an illustration of task-

chaining or continuity based on the psycholinguistic processing approach.

In this ten-step sequence, the demands on the learner gradually increase,

both within each phase, and from one phase to the next. The sequence

provides yet another illustration of task-chaining or continuity, in that

skills acquired and practiced in one step are extended in succeeding steps

(Nunan, 2004: 126).

Table 2.5 Psycholinguistic Processing Approach for Task Sequencing(Nunan, 2004: 126)

Phases Steps within Phasesa. Processing 1. Read or study a text – no other

(comprehension) response required.2. Read or listen to a text and give a non-

verbal, physical response (e.g. learnerraises hand every time key words areheard).

3. Read or listen to a text and give a non-physical, non-verbal response (e.g.check-off a box or grid every time key

Page 56: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3838

words are heard).4. Read or listen to a text and give a verbal

response (e.g. write down key wordsevery time they are heard).

b. Productive 5. Listen to cue utterances or dialoguefragments and repeat them, or repeat acomplete version of the cue.

6. Listen to a cue and complete asubstitution or transformation drill.

7. Listen to a cue (e.g. a question) andgive a meaningful response (i.e. one thatis true for the learner).

c. Interactive 8. Role play9. Simulation/discussion10. Problem-solving / information gap

7. Task Development

a. Definition of Tasks

The concept of task is central to many theories of classroom

teaching and learning, and the school curriculum is sometimes described

as a collection of tasks (Richards and Schmidt, 2002). Richards (2004)

proposed the characteristics of a task as follow.

It is something that learners do or carry out using the existinglanguage resources.

It has an outcome which is not simply linked to learninglanguage, though language acquisition may occur as thelearner carries out the task.

It involves a focus on meaning. In the case of tasks involving two or more learners, it calls

upon the learners’ use of communication strategies andinteractional skills.

In the point of view of task-based instruction, there are two types

of task: real-world task or target task and pedagogical task. Real-world

tasks or target tasks are tasks that reflect the real-world uses of language

Page 57: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

3939

and which might be considered a rehearsal for real-world tasks (Richards,

2006). These tasks refer to the uses of language in the world beyond the

classroom. This type of task is the point of departure in task-based

language teaching.

When real-world tasks or target tasks are transformed from the

real world to the classroom, tasks become pedagogical in nature (Nunan,

2004: 2). Here is the definition of pedagogical tasks:

. . . a pedagogical task is a piece of classroom workthat involves learners in comprehending,manipulating, producing or interacting in the targetlanguage while their attention is focused on mobilizingtheir grammatical knowledge in order to expressmeaning, and in which the intention is to conveymeaning rather than to manipulate form. The taskshould also have a sense of completeness, being ableto stand alone as a communicative act in its own rightwith a beginning, a middle and an end.(Nunan, 2004: 4)

In short, the basic distinction of the two types of task is that real-world

tasks refer to the uses of language in the real world situation while

pedagogical tasks are those that occur in the classroom.

b. Component of a Task

Nunan (2004: 41) proposes that a minimum specification of task

will include goals, input and procedures, and that these will be supported

by roles and settings. Following is the diagram of task components.

Page 58: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4040

Goals Teacher role

Input TASK Learner role

Procedures Settings

Figure 2.3 Component of a Task

a. Goals

Goals are the vague, general intentions behind any learning task.

They provide a link between the task and the broader curriculum.

(Nunan, 2004: 41)

b. Input

Input refers to the spoken, written and visual data that learners

work with in the course of completing a task. (Nunan, 2004: 47)

c. Procedures

Procedures’ specifies what learners will actually do with the

input that forms the point of departure for the learning task.

(Nunan, 2004; 52)

d. Teacher and Learner Roles

Roles refer to the parts that learners and teachers are expected to

play in carrying out learning tasks as well as the social and

interpersonal relationships between the participants. (Nunan,

2004: 64)

e. Settings

Settings refers to the classroom arrangements specified or

implied in the task. It also requires consideration of whether the

Page 59: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4141

task is to be carried out wholly or partly outside the classroom.

(Nunan, 2004: 70-71)

c. Principles of Task Development

Task-based instruction claims that language learning will result

from creating the right kinds of interactional process in the classroom,

and the best way to create these is to use specially designed instructional

task (Richards, 2006: 30). Task-based language teaching, then, makes

strong claims for the use of tasks and sees them as the primary unit to be

used in both planning the instructional process and the teaching process

in the classroom.

Nunan (2004) proposes seven principles of task-based instruction as

follows:

Table 2.6 Principles of Task-Based Instruction (Nunan, 2004)Principle 1 CommentScaffolding Lessons and materials should provide

supporting frameworks within which thelearning takes place. At the beginning ofthe learning process, learners should notbe expected to produce language that hasnot been introduced either explicitly orimplicitly.

Principle 2 CommentTask Dependency Within a lesson, one task should grow

out of, and build upon, the ones that havegone before.

Principle 3 CommentRecycling Recycling language maximizes

opportunities for learning and activatesthe ‘organic’ learning principle.

Principle 4 CommentActive learning Learners learn best by actively using the

Page 60: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4242

language they are learning.Principle 5 CommentIntegration Learners should be taught in ways that

make clear the relationships betweenlinguistic form, communicative functionand semantic meaning.

Principle 6 CommentReproduction tocreation

Learners should be encouraged to movefrom reproductive to creative languageuse.

Principle 7 CommentReflection Learners should be given opportunities

to reflect on what they have learned andhow well they are doing.

Figure 2.4. The Framework of Task-Based Instruction (Nunan, 2004: 25)

8. Materials Evaluation

As instructional materials have been written, the materials should be

evaluated. According to Tomlinson (1998), materials evaluation is the

systematic process of examining the potential value of a set of learning

materials by making judgments about the effect of the materials on learners

using them. The process consists of attempts to predict whether or not the

materials will work, in sense that the learners will be able to use them

Page 61: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4343

without too much difficulty and will enjoy the experience in doing so. In

most cases, this process is conducted impressionistically.

The evaluation itself can take place in three forms: pre-use evaluation,

whilst-use evaluation, and post-use evaluation (Tomlinson, 1998). The pre-

use evaluation focuses on predicting the potential value of the materials. The

whilst-use evaluation focuses on awareness and description of what the

learners are actually doing whilst the materials are being used. While the

post-use evaluation focuses on the analysis of what happened as a result of

using the materials. Tomlinson (1998) notes that whilst-use and post-use

evaluation can be extremely valuable but they are difficult to carry out for

these the two forms of evaluation require expertise and great investment of

teachers’ energy and time.

In the process of materials evaluation, there are several factors to

consider. Richards (2001) lists the factors to consider in evaluating materials

for language instruction as follows.

Table 2.7 Factors to Consider in Materials Evaluation (Richards, 2001)

Factors QuestionsProgram factors Questions relating to concerns of the programTeacher factors Questions relating to teacher concernsLearner factors Questions relating to learner concernsContent factors Questions relating to the content and

organization of the material in the bookPedagogical factors Questions relating to the principles underlying

the materials and pedagogical design of thematerials, including choice of activites andexercise types

Page 62: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

On purpose of materials evaluation for English language instruction

in Indonesian context, BSNP has designed a set of instruments of textbook

evaluation. The instrument covers two components of which each has several

subcomponents as showed in the following table.

B. Conceptual Framework

Curriculum 2013 is characterized by the application of scientific

method in the instructional process and the integration of development of

characters, knowledge, and skills. These two characters must be applied in

every level of education, both in primary level and secondary level of

education. Secondary level of education includes vocational high school.

English instructional process in vocational high schools falls into

category of English for Specific Purposes for the purpose of the instructional

process is to enable students to acquire (1) the basic knowledge and language

skills of English language to facilitate their study to achieve the competences

of their vocational study program, and (2) use the English language

competence to communicate both in spoken and written language in

particular fields. Therefore, the instructional materials must be specifically

designed to meet the students’ needs so that the goals of the instructional

process can be achieved.

The first step in the instructional materials is, then, conducting needs

analysis. The data gathered from the needs analysis are then become the base

Page 64: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4646

upon which the materials are developed. The data become the base to

determine aims, objectives, input, task types, presentation technique, and so

on.

In the process of materials writing, in order to make the materials even

more relevant with the students, Content-Based Instruction is applied. CBI

sets content as its point of departure in the process of lesson planning or

materials development. The process of materials writing is then started with

the making decision about the content based on the results of the needs

analysis, then, other kinds of decisions concerning grammar, skills, functions,

etc., are made later.

In developing the tasks within units, the principles of Task-Based

Language Instruction are applied. In addition, on purpose to provide tasks

that in line with the learning pathways, the psycholinguistic processing

approach to task continuity is applied. Thus, tasks are sequenced in particular

order involving learners to undertake activities which become increasingly

demanding, moving from comprehension-based procedures to controlled

production activities and exercises, and finally to ones requiring authentic

communicative interaction.

As the materials have been developed, the next step is evaluating the

materials. In this process, the criteria of English textbook evaluation designed

by BSNP become the framework of the materials evaluation. The data

gathered from materials evaluation, then, become the base for revising the

materials developed.

CHAPTER III

RESEARCH METHODS

This chapter describes the method of the research. The description is

organized into six subheadings: type of the research; setting of the research;

participants of the research; procedure of the research; instruments and data

collection procedure; and data analysis techniques.

A. Type of the Research

This research described the target needs and learning needs of year X

students of Sekolah Menengah Musik (Yogyakarta) then develop the English

learning materials that suit the students’ needs. For the main goal of this

research is to develop English learning materials for particular students

mentioned, this research falls into the category of research and development.

B. Setting of the Research

This research was conducted in January up to February 2014 at SMK N 2

Kasihan or better known as Sekolah Menengah Musik Yogyakarta.

C. Participants of the Research

The participants of the research were 30 students of year X and the

English teacher of Music Study Program at SMK N 2 Kasihan. The

researcher chosen the students and an English teacher of SMK N 2 Kasihan

as the school is one of the two schools in Indonesia majoring in music and the

only vocational high school majoring in music in Yogyakarta.

D. Procedure of the Research

The procedure of the research followed the materials development

process proposed by Jolly and Bolitho (1998). However, some adaptations

were made in order to make the research feasible within the setting of the

research. Following are the steps and the diagram of the research procedure.

1. Identification of needs

The first step in the research was conducting needs analysis.

The purpose of this needs analysis was to gather information about the

students’ needs and learning context. The needs analysis was

conducted by distributing questionnaire to 30 students of Music Study

Program at SMK N 2 Kasihan. The data were then analyzed using the

appropriate data analysis techniques. The results of the data analysis

became the basis upon which the materials were developed.

2. Planning

As the data from the needs analysis had been analyzed, the

next step was developing materials. It was started with writing the

content outline based on the results of the needs analysis. In this

process of writing the content outline, the English curriculum for year

X students of vocational high school was also taken into

consideration. The outline was the framework to develop the

materials. It consisted of core and basic competences; topics: unit

titles; language functions; input texts; key vocabularies; key grammar;

learning tasks; and learning achievement indicators.

Page 67: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

4949

3. Production of materials

The first draft of materials were developed based on the

content outline. The process of materials writing involved the

consideration of layout, type size, visuals, reproduction, tape length,

etc.

The developed materials consisted of three units. Each unit

consisted of tasks that covered the four language skills: listening;

speaking; reading; and listening.

4. Evaluation

As the first draft of the materials had been developed, it was

then evaluated. In the evaluation process, expert judgment was chosen

to evaluate the materials while the instrument was questionnaire

adapted from Instrumen Penilaian Buku Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris

untuk Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (BSNP, 2006).

5. Revision

The results of the materials evaluation became the basis to

revise the first draft of the materials. As the materials had been

revised, they were considered as the final draft of the materials.

E. Instruments and Data Collection Techniques

Developing English materials for particular students, there were two

types of data needed to be collected: data of the students’ target and learning

needs (needs analysis) and data for the evaluation of the materials. To collect

data for needs analysis, questionnaire and interview were used as the

instruments of data collection. Then, to collect the data for the evaluation of

Page 69: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

5151

the materials, the researcher used questionnaire adapted from ”Instrumen

Penilaian Buku Teks Pelajaran Bahasa Inggris Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan”

published by Pusat Kurikulumdan Perbukuan Nasional.

1. Questionnaire

There were two types of questionnaire used in this research. The

first questionnaire was questionnaire for needs analysis. The organization

questionnaire for needs analysis and questionnaire for materials

evaluation.

The data from the questionnaire for needs analysis were

analyzed by calculating the percentage of each answer in the

questionnaire. The answer of which percentage was the highest was

considered representing students’ actual condition. The percentage was

calculated using the following for

P =

P : Percentage (%)f : FrequencyN : Number of respondents100 : Fixed Number

The next quantitative data were data from questionnaire for

materials evaluation. The data from this questionnaire were first

analyzed using the following formula proposed by Suharto (2006: 52-

53). (R =

R : RangeXh : The highest scaleXl : The lowest scale4 : Range of Likert-Scale

Then, the results of the calculation was converted into

descriptive analysis. To convert the data, data conversion table

(Suharto, 2006) was used as the mean of the data had been calculated.

b) Necessities

Hutchinson and Waters (1987) defines necessities as what the

learners need to know in order to function effectively in the target situation.

The following table presents the Music Study Program students’

necessities in English instructional context.

Table 4.3 shows that 66.67% of total respondent stated that they

need their English proficiency level be in advanced level in order to

function well in the target situation latter on while 33.33% of total

respondent stated they need their English proficiency level be in

intermediate level. It is also presented in the table that 53.33% of total

Page 76: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

5858

respondent stated they need English to comprehend literature in the field

of music that are written in English. 50% of total respondent also stated

that they need English to enable them to communicate with native English

speakers in spoken manner while 30% of total respondent stated that they

need English to communicate with non-native English speakers in spoken

form of communication.

c) Lacks

Lacks can be defined as the gap between what the students know

already and what they need to know (Hutchinson and Waters, 1987). On

purpose to find out the lacks of the students of Music Study program, the

current English proficiency level of Music Study Program students was

assessed and the result is showed in the following table.

Table 4.4 Students’ Current Proficiency LevelQuestion Items N F %

My currentEnglishproficiencylevel is …

a. beginner 30 19 63.33

b. intermediate 30 11 36.67

c. advanced 30 0 0

As showed in the Table 4.4, 63.33% of total respondent considered

themselves as beginner while 36.67% of total respondent stated that their

English proficiency level is now in the intermediate level. The term

beginner in this context refers to “beginning level” in which students

already may know a couple hundred English words and are able to use the

a few common survival phrases (Brown, 2001). Thus, it can be concluded

Page 77: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

5959

that all of the students of Music Study Program already have the ability to

be involved in minimal communication.

d) Wants

Wants refer to what the students wish to learn (Hutchinson and

Water, 1987). The following table presents what the students of Music

Study Program want to learn in the term of English instruction.

b. Listening 30 2 6.67

c. Reading 30 1 3.33

d. Writing 30 1 3.33

Among the four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and

writing), the respondents stated that they want to improve their speaking

skill the most. As showed in the Table 4.5, 86.67% of total respondent

wanted to develop their speaking ability while only 6.67% of total

respondent wanted to improve their listening skill.

2) Learning Needs

a) Input

Nunan (2004) defines input as the spoken, written and visual data

that learners work with in the course of completing a task. In analyzing

the needs of the students of Music Study Program, input was divided into

Page 78: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

6060

four types: input for listening, input for speaking, input for reading, and

input for writing.

b) Procedure

Nunan (2004) stated that procedures specify what learners will

actually do with the input that forms the point of departure of the learning

task. On purpose to meet the learners’ needs of learning English, the

procedures involved in the instructional process should be designed by

considering the learners’ interest. In the following tables are presented the

learning procedures for listening, speaking, reading, writing, vocabulary,

and grammar learning that meet the interest of year X students of Music

Study Program based on the needs analysis.

b. Description of the Interview Result

In Indonesia, there are only two vocational high schools focusing on

Music Study Program. Those two vocational high schools are SMM Medan

and SMM Yogyakarta or now namely SMK N 2 Kasihan. However, one of

the vocational high schools, SMM Medan, has had several changing from

its origin, it is no longer focusing on classical music, it now combines the

teaching of classical music and pop-modern music. It is only SMM

Yogyakarta or SMK N 2 Kasihan that is a vocational high school majoring

in music that focusing on classical music.

Due to the limited number of vocational high schools majoring in

music, graduates from junior high schools around Indonesia who are

willing to continue their education in vocational high schools majoring in

music apply to the two schools. Thus, it can be concluded that the students

of vocational high schools majoring in music come from various places of

origin, they are very diverse in nature.

Page 95: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

7777

In relation to the curricula, the subject matters in vocational high

schools are divided into two categories: compulsory subjects and

vocational subject. Among the nine compulsory subjects, one of them is

English. Time allocation for English teaching and learning process is 90

minutes per week.

Regarding the English teaching and learning process, the main

problem that is commonly found in vocational high schools majoring in

music is that students seem have no positive attitude toward English

instruction. It is because those students, at their present condition, do not

aware the need to master English as a medium of communication that

makes them take English for granted. As a matter of fact, it also happens

in the instructional process of other compulsory subjects.

Therefore, the focus of the English teachers in vocational high

schools majoring in music is to motivate students in such a way so that the

students are willing to learn English. According to the interviewed English

teacher, it is not easy but it is the most important thing that the teacher has

to do. Quite often, during the class, teachers could only talk about subject

matter for less than half hour and then make use the rest of the time to have

a talk with the students about any problems that the students encounter. As

a result, the English instructional process is underachieving.

During the English teaching and learning so far, the materials

employed in the instructional process are not specifically designed. English

teachers do not use particular text book while they are teaching either. They

Page 96: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

7878

simply use any materials that are related to the curriculum for English in

terms of the language functions or texts. Those materials are mostly taken

from the Internet.

The results of the needs analysis became one the consideration for

the researcher to develop the materials. In the following section is the

elaboration of the course grid of the materials.

2. Course Grid

As the needs analysis had been conducted and the results had been

analyzed, the next stage of materials development was developing course grid

of the materials. The course grid was considered as the framework to develop

the materials.

The course grid was designed by referring to the English curriculum in

Curriculum 2013 for vocational high school and considering the results of the

needs analysis. It consisted of core and basic competences; unit numbers and

titles; indicators of achievement; input texts, grammar, and vocabulary; and

learning tasks.

a. The Course Grid for Unit 1

The course grid for Unit 1 was derived from core competences

number 1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1: 2.3; 3.9; 4.13; and

4.14.. The topic of the unit is “Music Festivals” and the focused grammar

are simple past tense and time conjunctions. The complete version of the

course grid for unit one is available in the Appendices.

Page 97: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

7979

b. The Course Grid for Unit 2

The course grid for Unit 2 is derived from core competences number

1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1; 2.3; 3.10; and 4.15. The

topic of the unit is “Tales of Music” and the focused grammar is reported

speech and adverb, adjective, and simile. The complete version of the course

grid for unit two is available in the Appendices.

c. The Course Grid for Unit 3

The course grid for Unit 3 is derived from core competences number

1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1; 2.3; 3.11; and 4.16. The

topic of the unit is “When the World Sings” and the focused grammar is

grammar related to the language features of poetic text. The complete

version of the course grid for unit three is available in the Appendices.

3. The Unit Design

As the course grid had been designed, the next step was developing the

materials. The following diagram presents a brief design of each unit of the

materials.

Figure 4.1. Unit Design

As presented in the Figure 4.1, each unit of the materials has four main

parts: introduction, main lesson, reinforcement, and fun part. The introduction

part consist of several tasks of which purpose is to introduce the topic of the

unit to the students, activate their schemata, especially related to the topic, and

prepare them for the main lesson. Following the Introduction part is Main

Lesson.

The main lesson consists of tasks that are designed to leads the students

to achieve the targeted competencies stated in the curriculum by practicing the

learning items and experiencing the learning experience. The tasks are divided

into four stages that are adapted from the steps of the scientific method. The

four stages are observing, questioning, collecting and analyzing data and

communicating, and creating/ practicing. In the observing stage, the task is

focused on nudging students to observe a spoken or written text and make a list

Page 99: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

8181

of items they want to know further in order to understand/ produce a text of

particular types. The next stage is questioning stage. The tasks in this unit aims

to guide the students to formulate questions based on the list of items they want

to know further and propose temporary answers for the questions. Following is

the collecting and analyzing data and communicating stage. This stage is the

combination of the stage of collecting data, analyzing data, and communicating

conclusion in scientific method. The tasks in this stage aims to guide the

students to collect information and identify it to answer the questions that they

have formulated before and then communicate the answers to their questions in

either spoken or written manner. Then, the last stage in the main lesson is

creating/practicing. The tasks in this stage aim to engage learners to have semi-

guided production up to free-guided production of texts of particular type.

Following the main lesson is reinforcement.

The reinforcement part consists of two section: summary of the lesson

in the unit and reflection. The purpose of including this part in the unit is to give

students the opportunity to recall what they have learnt through the unit and

reflect on how they have done it to strengthen their response in their learning

process so that they can do their very own self-assessment. The reflection also

aims to measure students’ achievement of the target competences especially the

core competences 1.1 and 2.3. Following this part is the fun part of which

purpose is to provide games about particular things relevant with the materials,

or any other things that support the instructional materials.

B. Discussion

This research falls into the category of product-based research (Borg &

Gall, 2003) as the main goal of this research is to develop English instructional

materials that suit the needs of students of particular study program that were

year X students of Music Study Program. In attempt to develop the materials, a

set of research methods adapted from the process of materials writing proposed

by Jolly and Bolitho (1998) was applied. Several adaptations were made in

order to make the research feasible within the researcher’s context.

Page 124: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

106106106

The very first step of the research was identifying target students’ needs

by conducting needs analysis. The needs analysis was conducted on February

13, 2014 by conducting an interview with the English Teacher of year X of

Music Study Program in SMK N 2 Kasihan and on February 19, 2014 by

distributing questionnaires to 30 year X students of Music Study Program in

SMK N 2 Kasihan. There were nine questions addressed to the English teachers

and there were 30 items in the questionnaire. The questions addressed to the

English teachers and the items in the questionnaires aimed to figure out

students’ needs in terms of learners’ identity (Graves, 2000: 103, Hutchinson &

Waters, 1987: 63), learners’ goal in learning English (Graves, 2000: 104),

necessities (Hutchinson & Waters, 1987: 55), wants (Hutchinson & Waters,

1987: 56), lacks (Hutchinson & Waters, 1987: 55-56), input (Nunan, 2004: 47),

procedure (Nunan, 2004: 52), setting (Nunan, 2004: 70), students’ role (Nunan,

2004: 64-69), and teachers’ role (Nunan, 2004: 64-69).

The results of the needs analysis shows that year X students of Music

Study Program needs English instructional materials of which topics within

units meet their context, that are topics related to music. Added to this, they are

also in need to have English instructional materials that cover the four language

skills−listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Related to the learning

activities, the year X students of Music Study Program preferred learning

activities that allow them to work individually, in pairs, and in groups.

The results of the needs analysis also revealed that most of the year X

students of Music Study Program belonged to the beginner in terms of the

Page 125: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

107107107

English proficiency level and were in need to improve their proficiency level

up to the advanced level. The term beginner in this context refers to “beginning

level” in which students already may know a couple hundred English words and

are able to use the a few common survival phrases (Brown, 2001). Thus, it could

be concluded that all of the students of Music Study Program already had the

ability to be involved in minimal communication.

Added to the results of the needs analysis, related to the target needs of

the year X students of Music Study Program, the English curriculum for

vocational high school in Curriculum 2013 already state the detailed core and

basic competences that the students have to reach. Thus, determining what to

cover in the materials, the researcher took into consideration both the results of

the needs analysis and the core and basic competences stated in the curriculum.

The developed materials tried to combine the application of content-

based instruction, scientific approach, and a set of core and basic competences

for English language instruction for year X students of Music study program

stated in the Curriculum 2014. It was for the approach that is considered best to

be applied in ELT in vocational high school that falls into the category of ESP

is content-based instruction while the Curriculum 2013 requires the

instructional process to apply scientific methods.

The process of the materials writing begun with designing the course

grid for the materials. The course grid was designed by referring to the English

curriculum in Curriculum 2013 for vocational high school and considering the

results of the needs analysis. It consisted of core and basic competences; unit

Page 126: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

108108108

numbers and titles; indicators of achievement; input texts, grammar, and

vocabulary; and learning tasks. As the course grid had been designed, the next

step was developing the materials.

The developed materials consisted of three units. Each unit of the

materials had different numbers of tasks depending on the competences that the

students have to reach but they had the same unit design that consisted of four

parts: introduction, main lesson, reinforcement, and fun part.

The introduction part consist of several tasks of which purpose is to

introduce the topic of the unit to the students, activate their schemata, especially

related to the topic, and prepare them for the main lesson. The main lesson

consists of tasks that are designed to leads the students to achieve the targeted

competencies stated in the curriculum by practicing the learning items and

experiencing the learning experience. The main lesson are divided into four

stages that are adapted from the steps of the scientific method as required by the

Curriculum 2013 (BSNP). The four stages are observing, questioning, finding

out (combination of collecting data, analyzing data, and communicating

conclusion), and creating/ practicing. The reinforcement part aims to give

students the opportunity to recall what they have learnt through the unit and

reflect on how they have done it to strengthen their response in their learning

process so that they can do their very own self-assessment. The last one is the

fun part of which purpose is to provide games about particular things relevant

with the materials, or any other things that support the instructional materials.

Page 127: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

109109109

The unit one of the developed materials was derived from core

competences number 1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1: 2.3; 3.9;

4.13; and 4.14 of English curriculum for year X vocational high school in

Curriculum 2013. The title of the unit was “Music Festivals” which represented

the theme of the unit. It was chosen as the theme of the unit for it was very much

related with the students’ interest and field of study. The unit one consisted of

26 tasks.

The unit two of the developed materials was derived from core

competences number 1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1; 2.3;

3.10; and 4.15. The title of the unit was “Tales of Music” which represented the

theme of the unit. It was chosen as the theme of the unit for it is related with the

students’ interest and field of study. The unit two consisted of 27 tasks.

The unit three of the developed materials was derived from core

competences number 1; 2; 3; and 4 and basic competences number 1.1; 2.3;

3.11; and 4.16. The title of the unit was “When the World Sings” which

represented the theme of the unit. It was chosen as the theme of the unit for it

was related with the students’ interest and field of study as well as in accordance

with the targeted competences. The unit three consisted of 14 tasks.

Among the three units of the developed materials, the unit three has the

smallest number of tasks because unlike the other two units, the unit three was

not divided into two cycle: reading-writing cycle and listening-speaking cycle.

It was because the core and basic competences for the unit one and two stated

that the students have to be able to understand both spoken and written forms

Page 128: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

110110110

of particular text types while the core and basic competences for unit three do

not state so.

As the process of the materials writing had finished, the three units of

the developed materials were considered as the first draft of the materials. The

next process was materials evaluation. The process of materials evaluation in

this research applied the expertise-based evaluation approach (Borg & Gall,

2003) conducted by distributing questionnaires to an expert.

There were four aspects of the materials that were being evaluated.

Those aspects were the appropriateness of the content, the appropriateness of

the language, the appropriateness of the presentation and the appropriateness of

the layout.

The results of the materials evaluation showed that the developed

materials were good enough. However, there were several parts of the materials

that were in need to be revised. In general, the expert suggested that the first

draft of the materials needed to be revised in terms of the language by revising

several grammar mistakes found in the materials. The detailed revisions of the

materials were available in Table 4.27, Table 4.33, and Table 4.37.

As the needed revision had been made, the materials were considered as

the final draft. The final draft of the materials is available in the appendices.

CHAPTER V

CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

This chapter is divided into two parts: conclusions and suggestions. The first

part of this chapter presents the conclusions drawn from the findings and discussion

of the research. The second part presents suggestions that the researcher propose to

year X students of Music Study Program, English teachers, and other researchers.

A. Conclusions

The conclusions in this research were drawn from the findings and

discussion presented in the Chapter VI aiming to answer the research questions

of the research. The first one is the conclusion related to the results of the needs

analysis in terms of the students’ target needs. The second one is the results of

the needs analysis in terms of the students’ learning needs. The third one is the

conclusion related to the characteristics of the English instructional materials

that are appropriate for the year X students of Music Study Program.

1. The Target Needs of Year X Students of Music Study Program

Target needs refer to what the learners need to do in the target

situation and are divided into three terms: necessities, lacks, and wants

(Hutchinson & Waters, 1987). The results of the needs analysis conducted

by involving 30 years X students of Music Study Program in SMK N 2

Kasihan revealed that generally the students are in need to learn English in

order to be able to communicate in English in both spoken and written

language. The results of the needs analysis also showed that the students’

current English proficiency level are mostly beginner and they need their

111

Page 130: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

112112112

English proficiency level be in the advanced level latter on. Related to the

content or areas of communication, the results of the needs analysis showed

that the year X students of Music Study Program are in need to able to

communicate in English of which topics are related to music and general

fields. Thus, it can be concluded that they need to learn the four language

skills.

2. The Learning Needs of Year X Students of Music Study Program

Learning needs refer to what the learners need to do in order to learn

(Hutchinson & Waters, 1987). Analyzing the learning needs of the year X

students of Music Study Program in this research, the researcher used the

framework of task components proposed by Nunan (2004). The analysis

focused on finding out what the students need to do in order to learn English

in terms of five components of a task: input, procedure, setting, student’s

roles, teacher’s roles.

In terms of inputs for the English learning, the results of the needs

analysis revealed that the year X students of Music Study Program needed

both spoken and written texts of which topics are related to the field of music

and daily life to be involved in the English learning materials. Related to the

forms of the input, the results of the needs analysis showed that the desired

input to be involved in the materials are vary in the forms and generally the

students wanted authentic texts to be involved in the materials.

Related to the procedures and the setting, based on the results of the

needs analysis, the year X students of Music Study Program wanted various

Page 131: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

113113113

learning activities to be involved in the instructional process. They wanted

activities that allow them to actively participate in the learning process.

They wanted to be involved in interactive learning, negotiation, information

gathering, and the co-construction of meaning. They wanted learning

activities that give them the opportunity to carry out the activities in both

inside and outside the classroom to be involved in the instructional process.

In relation with the classroom arrangement, the students wanted a classroom

arrangement with alternate setting from time to time. They wanted to work

individually in one meeting then in pairs in another meeting and in groups

in the other meeting.

In terms of teacher and student roles in the instructional process, the

results of the needs analysis revealed that the students wanted to be set free

to manipulate their skills and knowledge to carry out a task. However, they

also expected their teachers to give guidance, help, and feedback from time

to time.

3. The Appropriate English Instructional Materials for Year X Students

of Music Study Program

Instructional materials are a key component in most language

programs as they generally serves as the basis for much of the language

input that learners receive and the language practice that occurs in a

classroom (Richards, 2001). Thus, instructional materials should be

carefully designed so that the materials can meet the learners’ needs and

effectively facilitate their learning.

Page 132: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

114114114

Based on the results of the needs analysis, a conclusion of the

appropriate English learning materials for year X students of Music Study

Program can be drawn. The following are the characteristics of the

appropriate English instructional materials for year X students of Music

Study Program.

1. The topic within units of the developed materials should be related to

the field of music. It is on purpose to make the materials to meet the

learners’ interest and are closely related to the learners’ field of study

so that the learners find their learning is meaningful.

2. Each unit of the materials should have the following design:

a. introduction part;

This part consists of several tasks of which purpose is to introduce

the topic of the unit to the students, activate their schemata,

especially related to the topic, and prepare them for the main lesson

b. main lesson;

As required by the Curriculum 2013, the instructional process must

apply the scientific method, so do the arrangement of the tasks in

the instructional materials. The tasks should be arranged based on

the steps of the scientific method. Thus, the tasks are divided into

four stages that are adapted from the steps of the scientific method.

The four stages are observing, questioning, finding out, and

creating/ practicing. In the observing stage, the task is focused on

nudging students to observe a spoken or written text and list items

Page 133: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

115115115

they want to know further in order to understand/ produce a text of

particular types. In the questioning stage, the tasks aim to guide the

students to formulate questions based on the list of items they want

to know further and propose temporary answers for the questions.

Following is the finding out stage. This stage is the combination of

the stage of collecting data, analyzing data, and communicating

conclusion in scientific method. The tasks in this stage aims to

guide the students to collect information and identify it to answer

the questions that they have formulated before and then

communicate the answers to their questions in either spoken or

written manner. Then, the last stage in the main lesson is

creating/practicing. The tasks in this stage aim to engage learners

to have semi-guided production up to free-guided production of

texts of particular type.

c. reinforcement;

This part aims to give students the opportunity to recall what they

have learnt through the unit and reflect on how they have done it to

strengthen their response in their learning process so that they can

do their very own self-assessment.

d. fun part.

This part aims to provide games about particular topics relevant

with the materials, or any other things that support the instructional

materials.

Page 134: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

116116116

B. Suggestions

In this part, the researcher proposes suggestions to year X students of

Music Study Program, English teachers, and other researchers.

1. To Year X Students of Music Study Program

For year X Students of Music Study Program who wish to use the

developed materials for their learning, the researcher suggests that in order

to be able to meet the targeted competences, the students should be willing

to actively participate in the learning process, do the tasks accordingly, be

willing to practice the English language in both spoken and written

communication, and be willing to have extensive learning by, for example,

having extensive reading and listening, writing journal, etc. In other words,

the students should realize that they are the ones who are responsible to their

learning.

2. To English Teachers

For the English teachers who wish to use the developed materials,

the researcher suggests that the teachers should be well-informed about the

students’ characteristics so that the teachers can provide the right guidance

and help when the students are working on particular tasks. The English

teachers should also be able to play the roles that the students expect their

teachers will play in the instructional process based on the results of the

needs analysis. Added to this, the English teachers should be willing to

make some adaptation on the materials so that the materials will be

applicable and meet their instructional context.

Page 135: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

117117117

For the English teachers in general, the researcher suggest that every

English teachers should continually conduct needs analysis so that the

teachers can provide the right help and guidance to facilitate the students’

learning process. The researcher also suggest that teachers should be able to

play a role as participant while the students are engaged in an activity so

that the teachers can liven things up from the inside. This also help the

teachers to develop a good rapport with the students.

3. To Other Researchers

For other material developers or researchers, the researcher proposes

two suggestions. The first one is that needs analysis should be conducted

thoroughly in order to be able to develop materials that can really meet the

learners’ target and learning needs. The second one is in regard with the

government policy that textbooks for instructional process in schools will

be provided by the government, the textbooks are not yet available. Thus, it

is an opportunity for materials developers/researchers to develop English

instructional materials that are in accordance with the Curriculum 2013.

Task 4

The First Day of Blackwater Music Fes�val

On Thursday, August 26, 2010, I found myself

on the way to one of my favorite places in the state of

Florida. It was the first day of The Blackwater Music

Fes�val 2010 at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in

Live Oak. Although Suwannee Music Park is pre�y

large, but on that fes�val only a few stages were used

and no band's sets overlapped each other.

At around 10 p.m. Perpetual Groove hit the stage to an anxious crowd. Halfway

through Perpetual Groove's set, the sky opened up and the crowd went wild. Perpetual Groove

really succeeded bringing a truly amazing show to its big fans.

English for Year 10 Students of Music Study Program I 3

Page 195: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

About an hour a�er Perpetual Groove played, it was �me for co‐headliner Sound Tribe

Sector 9 to take the stage. The rain was falling, but the crowd only grew larger and more out of

control. Sound Tribe kept the party going with an unbelievable light and mul�media show that

was �med to their music.

One thing I have always loved about Suwannee is that almost every fes�val they have has

late‐night shows for those of us who do not have a curfew. So did on that fes�vals. The late‐night

show was dance party held in the campgrounds in a tent. The electronic band Flight Risk played

from 2 a.m. un�l early morning leaving everyone who a�ended exhausted for the next day.

Java Jazz No. 10 Sounds Final, Soulful Note

A�er three days of jamming and grooving, the th

10 edi�on of the Clear Jakarta Interna�onal Java Jazz Fes�val drew to a close at the Jakarta Interna�onal Expo on Sunday in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. On the third day of the annual fes�val, all 17 stages were full of musicians and crowds of jazz lovers.

Page 197: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

At the C2 Brava Esquire Hall, for example, Rick Braun from the US gave a rollicking performance in the early evening. Braun also invited Frans “Sisir” Rumbino from Papua on stage for an impromptu jam session. Sisir is renowned for bea�ng, bashing and plucking plas�c combs to make music. It is a form of tradi�onal music in the province.

On the other stages, the Japanese trio Schroeder‐Headz wooed the crowd with their club jazz music, invi�ng people to take to the floor and dance. Also performing on Sunday were local chanteuse Agnez Mo, vibraphonist Roy Ayers with DJ Greg Wilson and Grammy‐wining R&B singer and songwriter India Arie.

The highlight of Sunday was the set by the famed mul�ple Grammy winner Natalie Cole. The 64‐year‐old gave a soulful set as one of the fes�val's final performances. She began her part with the ballad “Star�ng Over” before gree�ng the audience: “Nice to see you! Nice to be seen! How are you doing?” Nostalgia filled the hall as she performed a virtual duet with her late father, the legendary Nat King Cole, with the song “Quizas, Quizas, Quizas” (Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps).

Fes�val program coordinator, Eko Puradiredja, said that Java Jazz had succeeded in thbringing its loyal fans back to Kemayoran for its 10 edi�on. “There was no special show on

Saturday, but the crowd was crazy. That proves that people came here not because only one or two names,” he said. “They just didn't want to miss it.”

thOverall the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz was successfully held. It succeeded in bringing fans of jazz music to Kemayoran. I really had a great �me enjoying jazz music live.

On the second day of Java Jazz, I intended to watch Incognito. Incognito was scheduled to perform at 21.00, but it was delayed un�l 23.00. The visitors, including me, were disappointed due to the delay. However, to give the benefit to the delay, I watched the performances of the other singers such as Musikimia, Raisa, Krakatoa Reunion, and Sadao Watanabe.

A Look Back at My Three Days in Java Jazz

thThe 10 year edi�on of the Interna�onal Java Jazz Fes�val was held from 28

February to 2 March 2, 2014. It was my first �me to the Java Jazz and it was a

pleasure. With all the leading jazz acts such as India Arie, Jamie Cullum, Natalie Cole,

Tania Maria, Incognito, Ivan Lins, Snarky Puppy, Dave Koz, Roy Ayers, Sadao

Watanabe, Earth Wind and Fire Experience, Magnus Lindgren, Allen Stone, Norman

Brown , Nils Pe�er Molvaer, Lonnie Liston Smith, Jonathan Butler, Gerald Albright,

James Taylor Quartet, Soren Bebe, Mindi Abair, Robert Glasper Experiment, Timo

Lassy, Rick Braun, Richard Elliot, Jeff Lorber, Cris�na Morrison, and over 1,000

Indonesian musicians like 'Maliq & DEssen�als, Raisa, Tulus, Afgan, Agnez Mo, RAN,

Be3, Krakatau Reunion, Musikimia and many more, Java Jazz successfully sa�sfied

the visitors.

On the first day of Java Jazz, I arrived around at 17:30. I was late because of

the traffic. When I got to the venue, it was not too crowded. I guessed perhaps other

visitor also got stuck in traffic.

Music Fes�vals I 12

Page 204: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

English for Year 10 Students of Music Study Program I 13

The first day my goal was to see the performance of Earth Wind and Fire

Experience, Jaoa Sabia and certainly Jammie Cullum. Earth Wind and Fire

Experience performed at the Clear Hall around 21.00. There was about 30 minutes

overdue. However, Earth Wind and Fire Experience successfully brought the

audience to enjoy their music. I also took �me to see the performances of the local

musicians such as Afghan and Barry Likumahua. Afgan successfully hipno�sed the

audience with his performance and Afgan's melodious voice. Then, finally I come

to see Jamie Cullum, one of the most waited performers this year, at 24.00 at the

Clear Hall.

The third day of Java Jazz was much more crowded than the first and the

second day. I guessed it was because of the special show of Natalie Cole that

a�racted many people to come. The third day was opened by Agnes Monica's

performance. Although Agnes Monica's performance worth a big applause, it was

not the one that I had been wai�ng for. I was wai�ng around for India Arie and the

stunning Natalie Cole. Natalie Cole successfully gave a superb performance with

popular love songs in jazzy tune. She opened her performance with a song Star�ng

Over and con�nued to bring some of the best songs such as Route 66, Tell Me About

It, Somewhere In The Hills, Quisaz Quisaz Quisaz, Smile, Miss You Like Crazy, When I

Fall in Love and not to men�on the ever popular LOVE song.

Task 4

The Story of Orpheus and Eurydice

Eurydice and Orpheus were young and in love. So deep was their love that they were prac�cally inseparable and could not live without the other. These young lovers were very happy and spent their �me frolicking through the meadows.

One day Eurydice was walking through a meadow with Orpheus when she was bi�en by a snake. The poison of the s�ng killed her and she descended to Hades immediately.

Orpheus was son of the great Olympian god Apollo. In many ways Apollo was the god of music and Orpheus was blessed with musical talents. Orpheus was so sad about the loss of his love that he composed music to express the terrible emp�ness which pervaded his every breath and movement. He was so desperate and found so li�le else meaningful, that he decided address Hades. As the overseer of the underworld, Hades heart had to be hard as steel, and so it was. Many approached Hades to beg for their loved ones back and as many �mes were refused. But Orpheus' music was so sweet and so moving that it so�ened the hard‐hearted Hades. Hades gave permission to Orpheus to bring Eurydice back to the surface of the earth to enjoy the light of day only if Orpheus fulfill one condi�on.

“I'll let you bring your Eurydice back to the earth and keep her a company only if you promise me one thing: you should never look back as you ascended”, Hades said to Orpheus.

Orpheus was to trust that Eurydice was immediately behind him. It was a long way back up and just as Orpheus had almost finished that last part of the trek, he looked behind him to make sure Eurydice was s�ll with him. At that very moment, she was snatched back because he did not trust that she was there. When you hear music which mourns lost love, it is Orpheus' spirit who guides the hand of the musicians who play it.

Task 7

The Fairy Harp

Long �me ago, there was a company of fairies who lived in the recesses of Cader Idris. The fairies had a habit of going from co�age to co�age in the country to test the disposi�ons of the co�agers. In doing so, the fairies turned themselves into li�le folks. Those who gave the fairies an ungracious welcome were subject to bad luck during the rest of their lives; but those who were good to them would receive substan�al favours from them.

One night, the old Morgan ap Rhys was si�ng by himself in his co�age enjoying his pipe and some Llangollen ale. The ale made Morgan very light‐hearted, and he began to sing. His voice, however, was anything but sweet like . Although there was a bard who had likened his singing to the lowing of an old cow, his singing gave Morgan himself much sa�sfac�on. The only thing which was missing was the absence of an audience. Just as Morgan was coming to the climax of his song, he heard a knock at the door. Delighted with the thought that there was someone to listen to him, Morgan sang with all the fervour he was capable of. He then shouted, "Come in, whoever you are.”

The door opened and came three weary‐looking travelers. The three traveler were, actually, the fairies from Cader Idris who came to see how Morgan treated strangers, but Morgan never suspected they were fairies.

"Good evening, Sir," said one of the travelers. "We are worn and �red, but all we seek is a bite of food to put in our wallets, and then we will go on our way."

"Is that all you want? There is the loaf and the cheese on the table, and the knife lies by them. Feel free to cut what you like. Stuff yourself and fill your wallets”, Morgan replied.

Page 220: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

English for Year 10 Students of Music Study Program I 29

The travelers, a�er they had regaled themselves sufficiently, got up to go and said, " G o o d s i r, w e t h a n k y o u f o r o u r entertainment. Since you have been so generous we will show that we are grateful. It is in our power to grant you any one wish you may have: tell us what that wish may be."

"Well, indeed," said Morgan, "The wish of my heart is to have a harp that will play under my fingers, no ma�er how ill I strike it: a harp that will play lively tunes”, Morgan simply replied without thinking. He kept himself busy with his melody.

Morgan had hardly finished speaking when, all of sudden, there was a splendid harp in front of him. He looked round and found his guests had vanished.

"This is the most extraordinary thing I have ever seen in my life," said Morgan, "They must have been fairies".

Pounding with excitement, Morgan soon played the harp. As soon as his fingers touched the strings, the harp began to play a mad and capering tune. Just then, came in his wife with some friends. As they hear the strains of the harp, they began dancing, and as long as Morgan's fingers were on the strings, they kept dancing like mad creatures.

The news that Morgan had come into possession of a harp with some mysterious power spread like wildfire over the whole country. Many people came to see Morgan playing the harp. Every �me Morgan played it everyone started to dance and could not leave off un�l Morgan stopped.

One day, the bard who had made such unpleasant remarks about Morgan's singing came to see Morgan playing his harp. Morgan determined to take a revenge on him. Morgan played on and on un�l the dancers were exhausted and shouted to him to stop. Morgan did not stop un�l the bard had broken his legs. By that �me his revenge was sa�sfied, and took his fingers away from the strings.

But this was the last �me he had a chance of ven�ng his spite on his enemies. By next morning the harp had disappeared, and was never seen again. The fairies, evidently displeased with the evil use to which their gi� had been put, must have taken it away in the night. And this is a warning to all who abuse the gi�s of the fairies.

While Fiddle Cat was passing by his house, Tom Cat called him. “Hey, you, Fiddle Cat. I think I can do be�er than you. I want a fiddle contest! Tomorrow, in the town central park at one o'clock.” Tom Cat then added, “If I win, you cannot play your fiddle in the town anymore. But if I lose, you can join our band it you want. Deal?” Fiddle Cat then turned to Tom Cat and nodded. He then gave Tom Cat a handshake.

When the compe��on day had come, the sun was shining brighter than ever, but the compe��on went on. Tom Cat and Fiddle Cat came to the central park on �me.

Both Fiddle Cat and Tom Cat got the same applause, no one could figure out which one was be�er. So, they had the second round. This �me, they decided to dance while they played.

Tom Cat saw Fiddle Cat was inside the house looked sadder than ever. He then knocked the door. “Hello….”, Fiddle Cat greeted him. “Hi…. Um, I'm sorry. I'm sorry taking away your favorite hobby. I was jealous with you,” Tom Cat said with guilty. Fiddle Cat was surprised. “So, can I play again?” he asked hopefully. “Yes, you may. But could you try to talk less? Please?” Fiddle Cat nodded with smile and said, “Thank you, my friend.”

In the town, there was also a group band that played their music when there were celebra�on and seasonal events. One of the members of the band was also able to play fiddle well. Although Tom Cat enjoyed Fiddle Cat's music, but he was jealous with Fiddle Cat that gained the townspeople's a�en�on.

It was raining when Tom Cat was expelled from his band's basecamp. He then walked and walked. He was not sure where he was going un�l he saw rose bushes and looked up and saw the co�age on the hill where Fiddle Cat lived.

A�er the second round of the compe��on, it was Tom Cat who finally won because he could dance be�er than Fiddle Cat. Fiddle Cat then walked home sadly. He never played his fiddle again. He just sat in his home on the hill, sad and alone.

Tom Cat said, “You go first.” Fiddle Cat simply nodded and took a breath. He then played a one‐hit wonder's music that made the townspeople awed at his ability. A�er Fiddle Cat finished, Tom Cat then took his turn. His playing was just as good as Fiddle's Cat, but it was a style that no one had ever heard before. He also tapped his feet to the beat which added to the show.

Once upon a �me, in Rosebury town, there was a cat that could play a fiddle very well. He played the fiddle while walking through the road of Rosebury town. However, he never spoke to anyone. The townspeople called him Fiddle Cat.

One day, Tom Cat had went too far that made his friends really angry. His friend in the band then kicked him out of the band.

Tom Cat was so proud of himself and became mean, tough, and selfish. All of his friends had come to dislike him.

Then, the two cats picked up their fiddles and playing their music together.

Task 9

Deciphering “Somewhere over the Rainbow”

One of the most favourite songs ever may be “Somewhere over the Rainbow” by Israel

Kamakawiwo'ole. Many people have covered the song and upload it on YouTube.

Have you ever wondered why the song can be such everlas�ng hit? What is the song actually

about that it can make people recalling their memories about things whenever they listen to the song?

Following are several people's interpreta�ons of the song.

I think this song is great. To me it is about a new beginning. My wife and I

considered this for our wedding song because for us "Somewhere over the Rainbow" is

not saying that there has to be something be�er than this life, but that our love for one

another will take us over the rainbow. For us it takes us to a be�er place and reminds us

that things are be�er since we have the two of us. I guess like most songs it can be

interpre�ed many different ways. (tboans on July 21, 2006)

This is a beau�ful song. I heard it from a show called Cold Case which is a good

show. In my opinion this song is about dying. Dying is not a bad thing at all. A�er all it is

simply a part of life.

This song is about someone who died and is in heaven. “Wake up where the

clouds are far behind me” to me just means in heaven where all the troubles of life are

over and where nothing but blue skies lay.

I know if I die and do not go to heaven, I am going to be pissed. Especially a�er

this beau�ful song about that. Peace, Harmony. I am not going to go quote by quote and

destroy any of your imagina�on with what I think it means. But I am leaving you ladies

and gentlemen with my opinion that this song is about death and moving onto heaven.

(I_Am_Canadian on March 09, 2005)

This song is absolutely beau�ful. I love the combina�on of the simple sound

of the ukulele with Israel's voice. The lyrics was good too even though

Kamakawiwo'ole did not write them. I have never met a person who does not love

or at least appreciate this song.

Even though I think the lyrics may be about hope for a good a�erlife or

something spiritual like that, I like to think of it like some things here on earth in this life

may be tough, but when the good �mes do come, they will seem so much sweeter. The

author is saying that this is the life we have, posi�ve and nega�ve, I love it for what it is

worth. (MasonC on October 11, 2007)

Future Music Fes�val

Narrator : Listen to Allan telling his experience watching a music fes�vals.

Have you been in any music fes�val? I have once. And now I'll let you know about it.

It was a clear day in autumn 2014 when I and my friend were at Flemington Racecourse. Do you

know where Flemington Racecourse is? Yes, it is in Melbourne. We went there to watch Future Music

Fes�val.

My day started right when the doors opened at 12 P.M. Without wai�ng any further, we headed

towards the Safari stage to catch Joel Fletcher's set. Unfortunately, the set was canceled. But it's okay!

We decided to watch DJ Tigerily then.

A�er that, we headed to the main stage to catch the last 15 minutes of Mar�n Garrix's set. You

know who Mar�n Garriz is? No? Don't worry, I'll tell you. He is one of the men behind Havana Brown's

cult dance hit 'Big Banana'.

Next, we took the opportunity to explore the fes�val before some of the major headliners. We

went to the Haunted House presented by Knife Party. In the Haunted House, we incidentally meet I See

Monstas, one of the band that just finished their performance.

From the Haunted House, we went back to the main stage to witness Pharrell Williams's

amazing performance. Pharrell jammed several songs into a‐half‐an‐hour set and invited some of his

fans to come to the stage.

A�er Pharrell's incredible set, we hurried to the V Energy Green Room. Guess what we watch in

the room, Tigerily! Again. Yes. We watched Tigerily twice! LOL

Then, again, we rushed back to the main stage to watch Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. There

must be a technical problem with the sound system, I guessed, because some�mes during the set we

barely hear Macklemore's voice. Last but not least, we finished off the night with world renowned DJ

Deadmau 5.

I can say that we had an incredible day out in the Future Music Fes�val. Can't wait for the next

Future Music Fes�val!

thThe Night when I was in Java Jazz 10 Edi�on

thNarrator: Alila is telling her experience when she watched the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz.

It was one of the best night in my life. You know what?! Finally I watched Java Jazz Fes�vals live!

See?! Live!!th

Though I missed the first and second day of the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz because I had to go to

Bandung, I did make the third day. Yeay!

Why third day? Because it was the day when Natalie Cole got on stage. I'm a really big fans of

Natalie Cole, just so you know.

I can say that the 64‐year‐old living legend gave a soulful set as one of the fes�val's final

performances. She opened her performance with “Star�ng Over Again”. And guess what?! Natalie Cole

greeted me with "Nice to see you! Nice to be seen! How are you doing?" Hahaha. Yes, finally I watched

Natalie Cole's performance live! She was right in front of meeee!

Nostalgia filled the hall as she performed a virtual duet with her late father, the legendary Nat

King Cole, with the song "Quizas, Quizas, Quizas". Cole then sang the song herself, in the original Spanish.

She then con�nued with "When I Fall in Love" and, of course, "Unforge�able".

I'll never forget that night. I really had so much fun.

Dialogue between Adam and Allan

Situa�on : Allan and Adam are si�ng on a bench in a park while Allan is busy with his smartphone.Adam : Are you busy upda�ng your status on Twi�er?Allan : Nope! I'm just surfing on the internet and I just found a good ar�cle.Adam : You did? What's the ar�cle about?Allan : Emmm… Kinda story actually.Adam : What story? A fairy tale? A folktale? A myth? Or may be a legend?Allan : Frankly speaking, I don't know either, Ana. All I know is it's about the goddesses of music.Adam : The goddesses of music? Is there any?Allan : Believe it or not, there are nine goddess of music in the Greek mythology.Adam : Nine? Who are they? Tell me more.Allan : Well, let me read the story for you. It's all started when Mnemosene was carrying her daughters

with Zeus. Mnemosene was keenly looking a�er her pregnancy for a year. A year later, when the months and seasons had completed their cycle and when many days had passed, Mnemosene gave birth to nine daughters. Those daughters were enchanted with music. Their names were Cleo, E�erpe, Thalia, Melpomene, Terpsehore, Herato, Polymnea, Urania, and Kalleope.

Blessed with the power of their father, Zeus, the nine daughter had the power of make us forget our worries and lessen our pain. With their power, they became the goddesses of music.

Adam : So, it's a Greek mythology, huh?Allan : It is. You right! And oh! They are so‐called as the Nine Muses.Adam : Muses? It reminds me to a band namely Muse. HahahaAllan : So do I! Give me high five!

Tales of Music in Musical FM

Aloha! Good morning, everyone!

Welcome to our special program “Tales of Music” with me Malika. So, stay tune in 99,9 Musical

FM.

Well, I have a ques�on for you. Do you enjoy Greek mythology? Yes? Great. The story of the day

will bring us to the �me while the Greek gods and goddess were living their life back then.

Let me ask you another ques�on: is there any of you who know the goddesses of music in Greek

mythology? Yes, they are the Nine Musses. And, what about the god of music? Is there any of you who

know who the god of music is? Yup! You right, Apollo.

Apollo was popular with playing the lyre. But, do you know that lyre was not invented by Apollo?

No? Well, let me tell you, lyre was invented by Hermes, the other Greek god who was Apollo half‐brother.

Are you now wondering how did Apollo get his lyre?

So, here is the story.

The story began when Hermes was born. Hermes was born with innate musical skill. Right a�er

he was born, the first thing he did was invent the lyre. As soon as Hermes le� the cave, FYI, Hermes was

born in a cave, he encountered a tortoise and quickly devised a plan. He seized and cut up the tortoise

and used the hollow shell, along with reeds, an ox's hide, and strings of sheep gut, to make the first

seven‐stringed lyre. In no �me at all, he tuned the lyre and was singing beau�ful songs in honor of his

father and his mother.

Hermes then had a desire for something else: he craved meat. He then decided to steal Apollo's

ca�le. Next, Hermes went to Apollo's pastures where Apollo's ca�le were sleeping. Hermes stole fi�y

heifers and on his return trip, he threw his baby shoes into the ocean so no one could trace his tracks.

See? How tricky Hermes is! Hermes then led the ca�le into a cave and shut them in there. No one saw the

the� of the ca�le except for one of Apollo's herdsmen, who swore he would tell no one.

Apollo soon found out that his ca�le was missing and started searching all around. Of course,

Apollo was the god of prophecy, so he soon found out the thief and went furiously to Mount Cyllene to

find Hermes in his cave. Apollo was furious so he brought Hermes in front of Zeus and demanded to have

his ca�le back. Pretending to act like a normal baby, Hermes said that he did not know what ca�le were.

However, Zeus and the other gods did not believe him, so Hermes finally had to return the ca�le to

Apollo.

Regre�ul of what he had done, Hermes then offered Apollo his lyre as a present. Apollo then

became known for the beau�ful music he played with the lyre and became god of music.

So, now you know how Apollo got his lyre, right?

Okay, kids, that's the end of the story. Don't forget to join me again tomorrow. See you and have a

nice day…

Task 4

The First Day of Blackwater Music Fes�val

On Thursday, August 26, 2010, I found myself

on the way to one of my favorite places in the state of

Florida. It was the first day of The Blackwater Music

Fes�val 2010 at Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in

Live Oak. Although Suwannee Music Park is pre�y

large, but on that fes�val only a few stages were used

and no band's sets overlapped each other.

At around 10 p.m. Perpetual Groove hit the stage to an anxious crowd. Halfway

through Perpetual Groove's set, the sky opened up and the crowd went wild. Perpetual Groove

really succeeded in bringing a truly amazing show to its big fans.

Page 297: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

About an hour a�er Perpetual Groove played, it was �me for co‐headliner Sound Tribe

Sector 9 to take the stage. The rain was falling, but the crowd only grew larger and more out of

control. Sound Tribe kept the party going with an unbelievable light and mul�media show that

was �med to their music.

One thing I have always loved about Suwannee is that almost every fes�val they have has

late‐night shows for those of us who do not have a curfew. So did on that fes�vals. The late‐night

show was dance party held in the campgrounds in a tent. The electronic band Flight Risk played

from 2 a.m. un�l early morning leaving everyone who a�ended exhausted for the next day.

Java Jazz No. 10 Sounds Final, Soulful Note

A�er three days of jamming and grooving, the th

10 edi�on of the Clear Jakarta Interna�onal Java Jazz Fes�val drew to a close at the Jakarta Interna�onal Expo on Sunday in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. On the third day of the annual fes�val, all 17 stages were full of musicians and crowds of jazz lovers.

At the C2 Brava Esquire Hall, for example, Rick Braun from the US gave a rollicking performance in the early evening. Braun also invited Frans “Sisir” Rumbino from Papua on stage for an impromptu jam session. Sisir is renowned for bea�ng, bashing and plucking plas�c combs to make music. It is a form of tradi�onal music in the province.

On the other stages, the Japanese trio Schroeder‐Headz wooed the crowd with their club jazz music, invi�ng people to take to the floor and dance. Also performing on Sunday were local chanteuse Agnez Mo, vibraphonist Roy Ayers with DJ Greg Wilson and Grammy‐wining R&B singer and songwriter India Arie.

The highlight of Sunday was the set by the famed mul�ple Grammy winner Natalie Cole. The 64‐year‐old gave a soulful set as one of the fes�val's final performances. She began her part with the ballad “Star�ng Over” before gree�ng the audience: “Nice to see you! Nice to be seen! How are you doing?” Nostalgia filled the hall as she performed a virtual duet with her late father, the legendary Nat King Cole, with the song “Quizas, Quizas, Quizas” (Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps).

Fes�val program coordinator, Eko Puradiredja, said that Java Jazz had succeeded in thbringing its loyal fans back to Kemayoran for its 10 edi�on. “There was no special show on

Saturday, but the crowd was crazy. That proves that people came here not because only one or two names,” he said. “They just didn't want to miss it.”

thOverall the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz was successfully held. It succeeded in bringing fans of jazz music to Kemayoran. I really had a great �me enjoying jazz music live.

On the second day of Java Jazz, I intended to watch Incognito. Incognito was scheduled to perform at 21.00, but it was delayed un�l 23.00. The visitors, including me, were disappointed due to the delay. However, to give the benefit to the delay, I watched the performances of the other singers such as Musikimia, Raisa, Krakatoa Reunion, and Sadao Watanabe.

A Look Back at My Three Days in Java Jazz

thThe 10 year edi�on of the Interna�onal Java Jazz Fes�val was held from 28

February to 2 March 2, 2014. It was my first �me to the Java Jazz and it was a

pleasure. With all the leading jazz acts such as India Arie, Jamie Cullum, Natalie Cole,

Tania Maria, Incognito, Ivan Lins, Snarky Puppy, Dave Koz, Roy Ayers, Sadao

Watanabe, Earth Wind and Fire Experience, Magnus Lindgren, Allen Stone, Norman

Brown , Nils Pe�er Molvaer, Lonnie Liston Smith, Jonathan Butler, Gerald Albright,

James Taylor Quartet, Soren Bebe, Mindi Abair, Robert Glasper Experiment, Timo

Lassy, Rick Braun, Richard Elliot, Jeff Lorber, Cris�na Morrison, and over 1,000

Indonesian musicians like 'Maliq & DEssen�als, Raisa, Tulus, Afgan, Agnez Mo, RAN,

Be3, Krakatau Reunion, Musikimia and many more, Java Jazz successfully sa�sfied

the visitors.

On the first day of Java Jazz, I arrived around at 17:30. I was late because of

the traffic. When I got to the venue, it was not too crowded. I guessed perhaps other

visitor also got stuck in traffic.

Music Fes�vals I 12

Page 306: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

English for Year 10 Students of Music Study Program I 13

The first day my goal was to see the performance of Earth Wind and Fire

Experience, Jaoa Sabia and certainly Jammie Cullum. Earth Wind and Fire

Experience performed at the Clear Hall around 21.00. There was about 30 minutes

overdue. However, Earth Wind and Fire Experience successfully brought the

audience to enjoy their music. I also took �me to see the performances of the local

musicians such as Afghan and Barry Likumahua. Afgan successfully hipno�sed the

audience with his performance and Afgan's melodious voice. Then, finally I come

to see Jamie Cullum, one of the most waited performers this year, at 24.00 at the

Clear Hall.

The third day of Java Jazz was much more crowded than the first and the

second day. I guessed it was because of the special show of Natalie Cole that

a�racted many people to come. The third day was opened by Agnes Monica's

performance. Although Agnes Monica's performance worth a big applause, it was

not the one that I had been wai�ng for. I was wai�ng around for India Arie and the

stunning Natalie Cole. Natalie Cole successfully gave a superb performance with

popular love songs in jazzy tune. She opened her performance with a song Star�ng

Over and con�nued to bring some of the best songs such as Route 66, Tell Me About

It, Somewhere In The Hills, Quisaz Quisaz Quisaz, Smile, Miss You Like Crazy, When I

Fall in Love and not to men�on the ever popular LOVE song.

Task 4

The Story of Orpheus and Eurydice

Eurydice and Orpheus were young and in love. So deep was their love that they were prac�cally inseparable and could not live without the other. These young lovers were very happy and spent their �me frolicking through the meadows.

One day Eurydice was walking through a meadow with Orpheus when she was bi�en by a snake. The poison of the s�ng killed her and she descended to Hades immediately.

Orpheus was son of the great Olympian god Apollo. In many ways Apollo was the god of music and Orpheus was blessed with musical talents. Orpheus was so sad about the loss of his love that he composed music to express the terrible emp�ness which pervaded his every breath and movement. He was so desperate and found so li�le else meaningful, that he decided to address Hades. As the overseer of the underworld, Hades’ heart had to be hard as steel, and so it was. Many approached Hades to beg for their loved ones back and as many �mes were refused. But Orpheus' music was so sweet and so moving that it so�ened the hard‐hearted Hades. Hades gave permission to Orpheus to bring Eurydice back to the surface of the earth to enjoy the light of day only if Orpheus fulfilled one condi�on.

“I'll let you bring your Eurydice back to the earth and keep her a company only if you promise me one thing: you should never look back as you ascend”, Hades said to Orpheus.

Orpheus was to trust that Eurydice was immediately behind him. It was a long way back up and just as Orpheus had almost finished that last part of the trek, he looked behind him to make sure Eurydice was s�ll with him. At that very moment, she was snatched back because he did not trust that she was there. When you hear music which mourns lost love, it is Orpheus' spirit who guides the hand of the musicians who play it.

Task 7

The Fairy Harp (Part 1)

Long �me ago, there was a company of fairies who lived in the recesses of Cader Idris. The fairies had a habit of going from co�age to co�age in the country to test the disposi�ons of the co�agers. In doing so, the fairies turned themselves into li�le folks. Those who gave the fairies an ungracious welcome were subject to bad luck during the rest of their lives; but those who were good to them would receive substan�al favours from them.

One night, the old Morgan ap Rhys was si�ng by himself in his co�age enjoying his pipe and some Llangollen ale. The ale made Morgan very light‐hearted, and he began to sing. His voice, however, was anything but sweet like . Although there was a bard who had likened his singing to the lowing of an old cow, his singing gave Morgan himself much sa�sfac�on. The only thing which was missing was the absence of an audience. Just as Morgan was coming to the climax of his song, he heard a knock at the door. Delighted with the thought that there was someone to listen to him, Morgan sang with all the fervour he was capable of. He then shouted, "Come in, whoever you are.”

The door opened and came three weary‐looking travelers. The three traveler were, actually, the fairies from Cader Idris who came to see how Morgan treated strangers, but Morgan never suspected they were fairies.

"Good evening, Sir," said one of the travelers. "We are worn and �red, but all we seek is a bite of food to put in our wallets, and then we will go on our way."

"Is that all you want? There is the loaf and the cheese on the table, and the knife lies by them. Feel free to cut what you like. Stuff yourself and fill your wallets”, Morgan replied.

The travelers, a�er they had regaled themselves sufficiently, got up to go and said, " G o o d s i r, w e t h a n k y o u f o r o u r entertainment. Since you have been so generous we will show that we are grateful. It is in our power to grant you any one wish you may have: tell us what that wish may be."

"Well, indeed," said Morgan, "The wish of my heart is to have a harp that will play under my fingers, no ma�er how ill I strike it: a harp that will play lively tunes”, Morgan simply replied without thinking. He kept himself busy with his melody.

Morgan had hardly finished speaking when, all of sudden, there was a splendid harp in front of him. He looked round and found his guests had vanished.

"This is the most extraordinary thing I have ever seen in my life," said Morgan, "They must have been fairies".

Pounding with excitement, Morgan soon played the harp. As soon as his fingers touched the strings, the harp began to play a mad and capering tune. Just then, came in his wife with some friends. As they hear the strains of the harp, they began dancing, and as long as Morgan's fingers were on the strings, they kept dancing like mad creatures.

The Fairy Harp (Part 2)

The news that Morgan had come into possession of a harp with some mysterious power spread like wildfire over the whole country. Many people came to see Morgan playing the harp. Every �me Morgan played it everyone started to dance and could not leave off un�l Morgan stopped.

One day, the bard who had made such unpleasant remarks about Morgan's singing came to see Morgan playing his harp. Morgan determined to take a revenge on him. Morgan played on and on un�l the dancers were exhausted and shouted to him to stop. Morgan did not stop un�l the bard had broken his legs. By that �me his revenge was sa�sfied, and took his fingers away from the strings.

But this was the last �me he had a chance of ven�ng his spite on his enemies. By next morning the harp had disappeared, and was never seen again. The fairies, evidently displeased with the evil use to which their gi� had been put, must have taken it away in the night. And this is a warning to all who abuse the gi�s of the fairies.

A piece of text that tells a story is a narra�ve text. The purpose of such kind of text is to entertain or inform the reader or listener. A narra�ve text also invites the reader or listener to reflect on the event(s) in the story to take a lesson to learn. A narra�ve text has four main parts and one op�onal part:

an orienta�on that tells the reader or listener about who is in the story, when the story is taking a place, where the ac�on is happening,

a complica�on that introduces one or more problems for the character(s) of the story to solve,

a sequence of events where the characters react to the complica�on, a resolu�on in which the characters finally sort out the problems for be�er or worse, a coda (op�onal) that provides a comment or moral value based on what has been

learned from the story.

Task 12

Study the following explana�on carefully. You may have a discussion with your friends or ask your teacher if you do not understand. Then, do the instruc�on in the box that follows on the next page. Remember to share the result of your work with your friends.

The sentences on Task 11 are wri�en in between quota�on marks to indicate that those are what somebody says to somebody else. Such sentences are called direct speeches.

Some�mes, you want to tell someone what someone else had said. For example, when you are retelling the story of fairy harp to your friend, you may want to tell your friend what Morgan said when he got his harp. In doing so, you can use a reported speech.

Reported Speech

When we use the reported speech, the main verb of the sentence is usually in its past

form. For example: said, told, and replied. Thus, to change the sentence into the reported

speech, change the verb(s) in the statement into past form(s) too.

In case of direct sentences that have verbs in past forms, the verbs can stay in their past simple form or we can also change them into their past perfect forms.

While Fiddle Cat was passing by his house, Tom Cat called him. “Hey, you, Fiddle Cat. I think I can do be�er than you. I want a fiddle contest! Tomorrow, in the town central park at one o'clock.” Tom Cat then added, “If I win, you cannot play your fiddle in the town anymore. But if I lose, you can join our band it you want. Deal?” Fiddle Cat then turned to Tom Cat and nodded. He then gave Tom Cat a handshake.

When the compe��on day had come, the sun was shining brighter than ever, but the compe��on went on. Tom Cat and Fiddle Cat came to the central park on �me.

Both Fiddle Cat and Tom Cat got the same applause, no one could figure out which one was be�er. So, they had the second round. This �me, they decided to dance while they played.

Tom Cat saw Fiddle Cat was inside the house looked sadder than ever. He then knocked the door. “Hello….”, Fiddle Cat greeted him. “Hi…. Um, I'm sorry. I'm sorry taking away your favorite hobby. I was jealous with you,” Tom Cat said with guilty. Fiddle Cat was surprised. “So, can I play again?” he asked hopefully. “Yes, you may. But could you try to talk less? Please?” Fiddle Cat nodded with smile and said, “Thank you, my friend.”

In the town, there was also a group band that played their music when there were celebra�on and seasonal events. One of the members of the band was also able to play fiddle well. Although Tom Cat enjoyed Fiddle Cat's music, but he was jealous with Fiddle Cat that gained the townspeople's a�en�on.

It was raining when Tom Cat was expelled from his band's basecamp. He then walked and walked. He was not sure where he was going un�l he saw rose bushes and looked up and saw the co�age on the hill where Fiddle Cat lived.

A�er the second round of the compe��on, it was Tom Cat who finally won because he could dance be�er than Fiddle Cat. Fiddle Cat then walked home sadly. He never played his fiddle again. He just sat in his home on the hill, sad and alone.

Tom Cat said, “You go first.” Fiddle Cat simply nodded and took a breath. He then played a one‐hit wonder's music that made the townspeople awed at his ability. A�er Fiddle Cat finished, Tom Cat then took his turn. His playing was just as good as Fiddle's Cat, but it was a style that no one had ever heard before. He also tapped his feet to the beat which added to the show.

Once upon a �me, in Rosebury town, there was a cat that could play a fiddle very well. He played the fiddle while walking through the road of Rosebury town. However, he never spoke to anyone. The townspeople called him Fiddle Cat.

One day, Tom Cat had went too far that made his friends really angry. His friend in the band then kicked him out of the band.

Tom Cat was so proud of himself and became mean, tough, and selfish. All of his friends had come to dislike him.

Then, the two cats picked up their fiddles and playing their music together.

Task 9

Deciphering “Somewhere over the Rainbow”

One of the most favourite songs ever may be “Somewhere over the Rainbow” by Israel

Kamakawiwo'ole. Many people have covered the song and upload it on YouTube.

Have you ever wondered why the song can be such everlas�ng hit? What is the song actually

about that it can make people recalling their memories about things whenever they listen to the song?

Following are several people's interpreta�ons of the song.

I think this song is great. To me it is about a new beginning. My wife and I

considered this for our wedding song because for us "Somewhere over the Rainbow" is

not saying that there has to be something be�er than this life, but that our love for one

another will take us over the rainbow. For us it takes us to a be�er place and reminds us

that things are be�er since we have the two of us. I guess like most songs it can be

interpre�ed many different ways. (tboans on July 21, 2006)

This is a beau�ful song. I heard it from a show called Cold Case which is a good

show. In my opinion this song is about dying. Dying is not a bad thing at all. A�er all it is

simply a part of life.

This song is about someone who died and is in heaven. “Wake up where the

clouds are far behind me” to me just means in heaven where all the troubles of life are

over and where nothing but blue skies lay.

I know if I die and do not go to heaven, I am going to be pissed. Especially a�er

this beau�ful song about that. Peace, Harmony. I am not going to go quote by quote and

destroy any of your imagina�on with what I think it means. But I am leaving you ladies

and gentlemen with my opinion that this song is about death and moving onto heaven.

(I_Am_Canadian on March 09, 2005)

This song is absolutely beau�ful. I love the combina�on of the simple sound

of the ukulele with Israel's voice. The lyrics was good too even though

Kamakawiwo'ole did not write them. I have never met a person who does not love

or at least appreciate this song.

Even though I think the lyrics may be about hope for a good a�erlife or

something spiritual like that, I like to think of it like some things here on earth in this life

may be tough, but when the good �mes do come, they will seem so much sweeter. The

author is saying that this is the life we have, posi�ve and nega�ve, I love it for what it is

worth. (MasonC on October 11, 2007)

The text that you read in Task 7 is a compila�on of people's interpreta�on of a song en�tled “Somewhere over the Rainbow” sung by Israel Kamiwawo'ole. A song interpreta�on is an explana�on or opinion of what a song means. Here is six simple steps that you can follow to

find out the meaning of a song:

1. Make sure you know the lyrics. If you know them by heart, great. If not, or if you're unsure, use a search engine like Google to look for the words, or use a lyrics database.

2. Think about the genre and theme. Is it rock? Metal? Country? Rap? Is it a love song? Is it a blatant poli�cal commentary? Is it humorous? Sa�rical? Religious? Maybe the song tells a story. O�en, knowing this will help you figure out how to interpret the lyrics.

3. If the meaning of a song seems very literal and obvious at first, re‐examine the lyrics. You may find a whole new interpreta�on among the words.

4. Take note of any unusual or poe�c phrases. These may be metaphors or figura�ve language. These are especially difficult to decipher, but take special considera�on, as metaphors can be some of the most important, moving parts of a song, and reveal a lot of meaning.

5. Listen to the song again, and again if you have to. Listen to it while reading the lyrics. Maybe you feel a deeper sense of connec�on with the words.

6. Never accept your interpreta�on as final. Keep an open mind and talk to other fans and music lovers; see how they infer the song. You never know, you might hear something completely different that changes your perspec�ve.

Remember this!

Some songs are so complex and personal, you might find it difficult to extract any meaning. This should not discourage you. Find or make up your own meaning in the song.

Future Music Fes�val

Narrator : Listen to Allan telling his experience watching a music fes�vals.

Have you been in any music fes�val? I have once. And now I'll let you know about it.

It was a clear day in autumn 2014 when I and my friend were at Flemington Racecourse. Do you

know where Flemington Racecourse is? Yes, it is in Melbourne. We went there to watch Future Music

Fes�val.

My day started right when the doors opened at 12 P.M. Without wai�ng any further, we headed

towards the Safari stage to catch Joel Fletcher's set. Unfortunately, the set was canceled. But it's okay!

We decided to watch DJ Tigerily then.

A�er that, we headed to the main stage to catch the last 15 minutes of Mar�n Garrix's set. You

know who Mar�n Garriz is? No? Don't worry, I'll tell you. He is one of the men behind Havana Brown's

cult dance hit 'Big Banana'.

Next, we took the opportunity to explore the fes�val before some of the major headliners. We

went to the Haunted House presented by Knife Party. In the Haunted House, we incidentally meet I See

Monstas, one of the band that just finished their performance.

From the Haunted House, we went back to the main stage to witness Pharrell Williams's

amazing performance. Pharrell jammed several songs into a‐half‐an‐hour set and invited some of his

fans to come to the stage.

A�er Pharrell's incredible set, we hurried to the V Energy Green Room. Guess what we watch in

the room, Tigerily! Again. Yes. We watched Tigerily twice! LOL

Page 360: developing english instructional materials - Universitas Negeri ...

Then, again, we rushed back to the main stage to watch Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. There

must be a technical problem with the sound system, I guessed, because some�mes during the set we

barely hear Macklemore's voice. Last but not least, we finished off the night with world renowned DJ

Deadmau 5.

I can say that we had an incredible day out in the Future Music Fes�val. Can't wait for the next

Future Music Fes�val!

thThe Night when I was in Java Jazz 10 Edi�on

thNarrator: Alila is telling her experience when she watched the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz.

It was one of the best night in my life. You know what?! Finally I watched Java Jazz Fes�vals live!

See?! Live!!th

Though I missed the first and second day of the 10 Edi�on of Java Jazz because I had to go to

Bandung, I did make the third day. Yeay!

Why third day? Because it was the day when Natalie Cole got on stage. I'm a really big fans of

Natalie Cole, just so you know.

I can say that the 64‐year‐old living legend gave a soulful set as one of the fes�val's final

performances. She opened her performance with “Star�ng Over Again”. And guess what?! Natalie Cole

greeted me with "Nice to see you! Nice to be seen! How are you doing?" Hahaha. Yes, finally I watched

Natalie Cole's performance live! She was right in front of meeee!

Nostalgia filled the hall as she performed a virtual duet with her late father, the legendary Nat

King Cole, with the song "Quizas, Quizas, Quizas". Cole then sang the song herself, in the original Spanish.

She then con�nued with "When I Fall in Love" and, of course, "Unforge�able".

I'll never forget that night. I really had so much fun.

Tales of Music in Musical FM

Aloha! Good morning, everyone!

Welcome to our special program “Tales of Music” with me Malika. So, stay tune in 99,9 Musical

FM.

Well, I have a ques�on for you. Do you enjoy Greek mythology? Yes? Great. The story of the day

will bring us to the �me while the Greek gods and goddess were living their life back then.

Let me ask you another ques�on: is there any of you who know the goddesses of music in Greek

mythology? Yes, they are the Nine Musses. And, what about the god of music? Is there any of you who

know who the god of music is? Yup! You right, Apollo.

Apollo was popular with playing the lyre. But, do you know that lyre was not invented by Apollo?

No? Well, let me tell you, lyre was invented by Hermes, the other Greek god who was Apollo half‐brother.

Are you now wondering how did Apollo get his lyre?

So, here is the story.

The story began when Hermes was born. Hermes was born with innate musical skill. Right a�er

he was born, the first thing he did was invent the lyre. As soon as Hermes le� the cave, FYI, Hermes was

born in a cave, he encountered a tortoise and quickly devised a plan. He seized and cut up the tortoise

and used the hollow shell, along with reeds, an ox's hide, and strings of sheep gut, to make the first

seven‐stringed lyre. In no �me at all, he tuned the lyre and was singing beau�ful songs in honor of his

father and his mother.

Hermes then had a desire for something else: he craved meat. He then decided to steal Apollo's

ca�le. Next, Hermes went to Apollo's pastures where Apollo's ca�le were sleeping. Hermes stole fi�y

heifers and on his return trip, he threw his baby shoes into the ocean so no one could trace his tracks.

See? How tricky Hermes is! Hermes then led the ca�le into a cave and shut them in there. No one saw the

the� of the ca�le except for one of Apollo's herdsmen, who swore he would tell no one.

Apollo soon found out that his ca�le was missing and started searching all around. Of course,

Apollo was the god of prophecy, so he soon found out the thief and went furiously to Mount Cyllene to

find Hermes in his cave. Apollo was furious so he brought Hermes in front of Zeus and demanded to have

his ca�le back. Pretending to act like a normal baby, Hermes said that he did not know what ca�le were.

However, Zeus and the other gods did not believe him, so Hermes finally had to return the ca�le to

Apollo.

Regre�ul of what he had done, Hermes then offered Apollo his lyre as a present. Apollo then

became known for the beau�ful music he played with the lyre and became god of music.

So, now you know how Apollo got his lyre, right?

Okay, kids, that's the end of the story. Don't forget to join me again tomorrow. See you and have a

nice day…
