Setyaningrum, Wahyu. "Learning mathematics in English for Indonesian students : an investigation into code-switching practices, obstacles and attitudes." Thesis, University of Dundee, 2015. https://discovery.dundee.ac.uk/en/studentTheses/5f1ca372-dc37-4ba1-a699-5d3434e46a5e.
Full textAbstract:
Previous studies have found that learning mathematics in English, where English is a non-native language for students is challenging. Most of the studies have been conducted in countries where English was either a native or second language. Few studies have been conducted in countries where English is a foreign language. More specifically, investigations on aspects of code-switching practice, obstacles and attitudes in learning mathematics in English are still limited. This study attempts to provide evidence on learning mathematics in English as a foreign language by focusing on these three main aspects. The current study was conducted in Indonesian International Standard Schools (ISS), where mathematics is learned in English. A mixed-methods approach was adopted in this study by employing an explanatory research design, sequentially performing surveys, classroom observations and interviews. The survey was distributed to 214 grade-seven students to ask about mathematical term challenges and attitudes towards learning mathematics in English. The classroom observations and interviews with 34 students were conducted in order to compare and contrast survey findings, explore code switching practices, identify the source of challenges for students and discover the resultant impact on attitudes. This study reveals several novel findings. Firstly, code switching by students exists in the ISS context in order to maintain the communication in both informal and formal academic conversations. This practice is influenced by cognitive, affective and social factors. While previous literature found that code-switching is a common feature in learning mathematics in a second language, the findings of the current study found that code switching also exists when students learn mathematics in a foreign language. Secondly, three main sources of difficulty were identified for students when learning mathematics in English: the characteristics of mathematical terms, the complexity of mathematical concepts, and the status of English as a foreign language. Limited English competencies appear to be the main source of difficulty in mastering concepts and mathematical terms. Finally, students in ISS schools in Indonesia have positive attitudes towards learning mathematics in English. These positive attitudes are mostly influenced by code-switching and their beliefs in the value of English. In conclusion, the current study identified (i) the importance of code-switching practices in learning mathematics in a foreign language, (ii) the potential sources of obstacles and (iii) the significant contribution of students’ attitudes have on overcoming these obstacles. An important practical implication is that code switching by students is to be encouraged when learning mathematics in a foreign language. Such practice increases students communication in the classroom and facilitates their understanding of mathematical concepts and terms. This practice also influences their attitudes because it can diminish their anxiety in learning mathematics in English. In terms of future research, the relationship between code switching and students’ attitudes needs to be investigated across Indonesia as well as in other non-English speaking countries. Studies with larger sample sizes across different countries would also enable corroboration and generalization of findings.

This thesis reports the findings of a study of the influence of the classroom learning environment on students cognitive and affective outcomes among 2,498 third-year computing students in 50 university-level classes in Indonesia. Students perceptions of the classroom environment were measured using a modified Indonesian version of the What Is Happening In This Class? (WIHIC) questionnaire. To assess students affective outcomes, a scale derived from the Test of Science Related Attitudes was adapted for use in higher education computing classes and translated into Indonesian. Students' final scores in their mathematics course (either linear algebra or statistics) were used as a measure of cognitive achievement. Secondary aims of the present study were to examine whether differences exist between (a) students perceptions of the actual and preferred classroom learning environment, (b) the perceptions of male and female of the actual and preferred classroom environment and (c) students' perceptions of the actual learning environment in linear algebra and statistics courses. The results of this study make important contributions towards explaining why Indonesian students are achieving at less than desirable levels in their computing courses.

One purpose of the present study was to validate a modified version of the What is Happening In This Class? (WIHIC) questionnaire and the Test of Science Related Attitude (TOSRA) in both Australia and Indonesia. It was the first classroom environment study that used the two above questionnaires simultaneously in these two countries. The second aim of this study was to find out whether the scores on the WIHIC questionnaire and TOSRA vary with country and with gender. The third and final aim of this study was to evaluate the strength of the associations between students' perceptions of their classroom environment and their attitude to science in both Australia and Indonesia. The sample consisted of 1,161 students (594 students from 18 classes in Indonesia and 567 students from 18 classes in Australia). All the students came from private coeducational schools. The original WIHIC questionnaire had eight scales made up of ten items per scale while the original version of TOSRA had seven scales made up of ten items per scale. Principal components factor analysis followed by varimax rotation resulted in the acceptance of a revised version of the WIHIC comprising 55 items and a revised version of TOSRA comprising 20 items. The a priori factor structure of the revised version of each questionnaire was replicated in both countries, with nearly all items having a factor loading of at least 0.30 on their a priori scale and no other scale.The use of MANOVA revealed that there were a few differences between Australian and Indonesian students' perceptions of their classroom environments and in their attitudes to science. For example, Australian students had a more positive attitude towards scientific inquiry while Indonesian students had a more positive attitude towards career interest in Science. A comparison between male and female students in the two countries revealed that both genders had almost similar perceptions of their learning environments and attitudes to science. However, female students had a slightly higher score when it came to career interest in science, student cohesiveness and equity. A series of simple correlation and multiple regression analyses revealed reasonably strong and positive associations between each classroom environment scale and the attitude scale. Overall Teacher Support and Involvement were the strongest independent predictors of student attitudes to science in both Indonesia and Australia.

This is a quantitative case study in which attitudes towards Corporate Environmental Responsibility (CER) among management students at Udayana University in Denpasar on the island of Bali in Indonesia, have been investigated. The aim of the study is to investigate the attitudes towards CER among future business leaders in Bali. In the study, 199 students have answered a questionnaire to map out the students' attitudes, perceived control, subjective norms and intentions towards CER. These variables are part of Ajzen's Theory of planned behavior, whose goal is to measure an individual's intentions to predict behaviors. The result of the study showed that the students have a very positive attitude towards CER. The collected data indicates that the students feel that they would have the control to implement sustainable practices at their future employers, that people close to them expect them to do so and that the students have intentions to implement environmentally friendly measures at their future workplace.Detta är en kvantitativ fallstudie där attityder mot Corporate Environmental Responsibility (CER) bland management-studenter på Udayana University i Denpasar på ön Bali i Indonesien, har undersökts. Målet med studien är att undersöka attityderna mot CER bland framtida företagsledare på Bali. 199 studenter har i studien fått besvara en enkät för att kartlägga studenternas attityder, upplevda kontroll, subjektiva norm samt intentioner mot CER. Dessa variabler ingår i Ajzens Theory of planned behavior vars mål är att mäta en individs intentioner för att förutsäga beteenden. Resultatet av studien visade att studenterna har en väldigt positiv inställning mot CER. Den insamlade datan tyder på att studenterna upplever att dem skulle ha kontrollen att implementera hållbara arbetssätt hos deras framtida arbetsgivare, att folk i deras närhet förväntar sig att dem gör det, samt att studenterna besitter intentioner att implementera miljövänliga åtgärder på deras framtida arbetsplats.

Full textAbstract:
Following the tsunami in 2004, the education system in Banda Aceh, Indonesia,was reconstructed and revitalised, and part of this involved foreign intervention in setting up bilingual schools alongside state-run monolingual schools. The purpose of this study is threefold. The first is to investigate the achievements of first year middle school students in Banda Aceh (Indonesia) in English essay writing, English reading comprehension, and attitude and behaviour with regard to learning English, as dependent variables, in the context of differences in gender and school types (bilingual and monolingual schools). The second is to investigate attitude and behaviour of students with regard to the learning of English as a foreign language, especially regarding student ability in English. The third is to explore students’ beliefs and perceptions regarding their experiences of learning English as a foreign language.
A number of linear unidimensional scales were created for each of the three variables using Rasch Measurement with the 2010 RUMM computer program. The construct validity of the three variables was tested by designing the items in ordered patterns of item difficulty which were compared with their Rasch-measured item difficulties, as a Science-like test of the structure of the variables. An experimental research design (pretest/posttest, control/experimental group) was used with Raschcreated linear measures of three variables: (1) a researcher-designed English Essay Test; (2) a researcher-designed Reading Comprehension Test; and (3) a researcher-designed Attitude/Behaviour Test about Learning English. Seven hundred and eighty male and female first-year middle school students (aged 12-13 years old), consisting of 394 students from bilingual schools and 386 students from monolingual schools, selected from a number of schools with bilingual programs and monolingual programs, were the respondents for this study. After two months of lessons, the two groups were compared on each of the three measures using ANCOVA and ANOVA. Students’ written comments were collected in regards to their experiences of learning English as a foreign language.
The findings showed that bilingual students outperformed monolingual students in tests of English Reading Comprehension, English Writing and Attitude/Behaviour for both pretests and posttests. Female students achieved better results than male students in English Reading Comprehension, English Writing, and Attitude/Behaviour tests, both for pretests and posttest.

In an effort to integrate its market to the global economy, the government of Taiwan has employed various strategies, one of which is to internationalize its higher education. The Ministry of Education (MOE) in Taiwan established cooperation and collaboration with many countries especially those in Southeast Asia as efforts to support internationalization, so that starting from 2004, the Taiwanese government has provided substantial stipends in order to attract international students to study in Taiwan. As a result, the number of international students was studying in Taiwan have increased significantly from 79,730 in 2013 to 111,340 in 2015. In regard to that, language issues quickly come to the forefront of the universities’ agenda because these students do not share the same native language with their local counterparts. In this situation, Taiwan government encourages all universities to employ English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) pedagogy as an effort to support internationalization of their higher education as well as to attract more international students. In addition, EMI in higher education is an inevitable global phenomenon. Thus, international students’ experience in, attitude toward, and challenges in EMI in Taiwan are issues worthy of investigation. 135 Indonesian graduate students participated in this study since they ranked third larger after Japan and Malaysia. The findings of the study will contribute to knowledge in adopting EMI, so that administrators and policy makers in higher education may better understand the challenges perceived by international students associated with language as a medium of instruction and their performance in Taiwan and, as a result, help them improve their policy involving EMI so that they may better meet students' and faculty's needs so that Taiwan can be an education hub in Asia.

Objective: To describe the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of tobacco-smoking among university students in Aceh, Indonesia; and to examine relevant factors related to their smoking behavior. Background: Tobacco consumption is a cause of chronic diseases, disability and excessive mortality worldwide. The overall prevalence of lifetime smokers in Southeast Asian countries is 31.7% with 13.1% being current smokers. In 2015, Indonesia was the fourth largest cigarette consuming country and the sixth-largest tobacco production country in the world, with 35% of its total population and 67% of its males being current smokers. The dramatic increase of lifetime smoking prevalence among the youth in Indonesia (from 4% in 1995 to 39.8 % in 2015) is linked to a significant rate of premature mortality from tobacco-attributed diseases. Aceh is one of the largest tobacco-producing provinces, with 37.1% of its total population being current smokers. However, no study up to date has examined the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of tobacco smoking among its university students. Method: In 2016, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among 529 third-year students of Syiah Kuala University in Aceh, Indonesia. Knowledge was measured by 11 questions related to harmful effects of tobacco-smoking and smokeless tobacco (alpha=.69). Attitudes were measured by 13 questions related to second-hand smoking, banning smoking in public places, and beliefs about addiction and others (alpha=.69). Practices of tobacco use were measured by 6 questions including frequency. Statistical analyses were performed by stataSEV12. Results: Participants comprised of 44.1% males and 55.9% females, with average age of 20 (SD=0.67). The prevalences of lifetime and current smoking were 39% and 15% respectively. The average scores of knowledge and attitude of the current or lifetime smokers are significantly lower than those of the non-smokers. Students majoring in health had significantly higher knowledge and attitude scores than those majoring in other fields. More than 25% of lifetime smokers ever used other forms of tobacco. 42.5% of current smokers reported ever wanted to quit smoking. Male, social science and humanities majors, non-Muslims, attitudes toward smoking, and with smoking close friends are significant predictive factors for current tobacco smoking. Male, attitudes toward smoking, and with smoking close friends are significant predictive factors for lifetime tobacco smoking. Discussion and Conclusions: This study showed that non-smokers and health field students have better knowledge and attitudes toward tobacco-smoking than their counterparts. Meanwhile, nearly one-third of current smoking students have wanted to quit. Preventive program could target attitudes toward tobacco use with special emphasis on males, peer pressure resistance, and those majoring in Social Science and Humanities. Services could be provided to help those students who would like to quit.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)This study investigates the impact of different teaching approaches on the relationship between beliefs, attitudes and intentions regarding environmental education in selected science classrooms in Indonesia. The results indicated that active learning approaches to environmental education, involving students in taking the role of active citizens in their local community, increased the likelihood of their having positive attitudes towards solving environmental education and the wider issues of teaching for global citizenship. The study sought to discover whether there is a correlation between changes in student beliefs, attitudes and intentions and their participation in active learning experiences in environmental education; and to investigate whether changes in student knowledge, beliefs, attitudes and intentions as a result of active learning in environmental contexts provides guidance in improving environmental contexts provides guidance in improving environmental and citizenship education. The study sample consisted of 577 senior secondary students from three different locations in the Tasikmalaya region, Indonesia; and three Chemistry teachers responsible for environmental instruction. A survey was administered to the student participants before and after ordinary classroom teaching, and after their participation in more active learning contexts. There were two different active learning approaches, i.e. field research and community action participation. Both approaches involved participants in scientific research but community action required the involvement of groups of people in discussion of local environmental problems. Field observation notes and interviews with both student and teacher participants enhanced the results of the surveys. Active learning approaches improved learners' socially critical thinking, their action competence embedded in social participation, their action competence embedded in social participation, their reflective thinking and their effective communication. The examples of student active learning activities developed ion this study may further improve science and environmental teaching and learning under the Indonesian standard curriculum, They also could inform alternative solutions to the issues of citizenship education.

THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG VOCATIONAL STUDENTS’ CHEMISTRY LABORATORY ANXIETY, ATTITUDES TOWARD CHEMISTRY LESSONS AND SELF-EFFICACY IN INDONESIA Margaretha Aurelia Pasaribu ABSTRACT This study intends to solve five research questions. The first to the third research questions are developing Chemistry Laboratory Anxiety Instrument (CLAI:15 items), Attitude toward Chemistry Lessons (ATCL:12 items) and Self-Efficacy (SE: 8 items) by Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire respectively. There are total 35 items are distributed to 120 chemistry vocational students in SMK Negeri 3 Medan, North Sumatera. The developments of questionnaires are tested by Cronbach Alpha (ranges from .690 to .840) for reliability testing, and Pearson Correlation (CLAI: .459- .789; ATCL: .483-.752; SE: .598-.762), Factor Loading, Extreme Group t-test and Factor Analysis for validity testing. In this stage, one item in Attitude toward Chemistry Lessons is rejected because the number of Pearson Correlation and Factor Loading are lower than the critical value. The forth research question is to investigate the current situation of Chemistry Laboratory Anxiety, Attitude toward Chemistry Lessons and Self-Efficacy condition of Chemistry Vocational School in Indonesia. The situation is analyzed by descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation, which are sorted by the highest value to the lowest value of the mean of each item in each questionnaire. The 475 chemistry vocational students at the same school are included in this formal study. The most anxious activities in chemistry laboratory according to the CLAI results is “… recording data during lab”. According to the ATCL results, students have a positive attitude in chemistry lab (“When I am working in lab, I feel I am doing something important”). In addition, chemistry vocational students do have a high expectation of their chemistry class, as reported in the self-efficacy questionnaire (“I expect to do well in chemistry class”). The aim of the fifth research question is to find the relationship among Chemistry Laboratory Anxiety, Attitudes toward Chemistry Lesson and Self-Efficacy for Chemistry Vocational Students in SMK Negeri 3 Medan. According to the results from formal study, there are significant linear relationship among chemistry laboratory anxiety, attitude toward chemistry lesson and self-efficacy. There is significant negative relationship between chemistry laboratory anxiety as well attitude toward chemistry, and between chemistry laboratory anxiety and self-efficacy. On the other hand, a positive attitude toward chemistry lesson and self-efficacy has a significant positive relationship in this study. By this study, chemistry vocational school teachers are expected to give attention about students’ attitude and students’ self-efficacy during chemistry class because it can affect students’ behavior in chemistry laboratory.

Background: Educational and health care professionals’ attitudes can have a significant effect on the decision of persons with disabilities (PWDs) attending school or seeking health care. The professionals mostly develop their attitudes early in education. Objectives: This study main objective is to assess the attitudes towards people with physical and intellectual disability among undergraduate university students from educational (primary teaching and psychology) and health care (nursing and medical) programs in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. We also want to explore the attitudinal differences (1) among the four departments, (2) between the first and fifth semester, and (3) towards people with intellectual disability (ID) and physical disability (PD). Methods: We used an exploratory cross-sectional survey method and developed the questionnaire based on literature review and adapted into the culture of the study site. The “ATTID questionnaire” from Morin et. al was used as a reference for our questionnaire. Among the four departments from three universities in Banda Aceh, 963 questionnaires were collected in class, with a response rate of 85.7%. Only students from the first and fifth semester were included in the study. Results: The results showed that students’ attitudes were generally positive. They had higher scores on questions concerning governmental help or rights of PWDs compared to personal interaction with or inclusion of PWDs in society. Having previous contact with PWDs was significantly correlated to positive attitudes. (1) The fifth semester had slightly higher positive attitudes compared to the first semester. (2) The medical department had the most positive attitudes compared to primary teaching department who had the least. (3) No clear pattern was detected comparing attitudes towards intellectual and physical disability. Conclusion: The overall students’ attitudes were positive, but they had a relatively low level of understanding of disabilities, as well as a lack of pre-service training. These students have a high chance to get in contact with PWDs in their professional career and should be prepared for it. Therefore, suggestions to include disability issues in university curriculum and emphasize an early contact with PWD can be made.

Yusuf, Kamal. "The relationship between language attitudes and self-concept and Arabic writing and speaking ability among university students in Indonesia." 2017. https://ul.qucosa.de/id/qucosa%3A17053.
Full textAbstract:
This dissertation deals with the attitudes and self-concept of students learning Arabic at university in Indonesia connected to their ability in Arabic speaking and writing.Islam and the Arabic language have had a profound influence on Indonesian life and culture. As the language of Islam, Indonesian Muslims begin learning Arabic at an early age. A compulsory subject in madrasas, pesantrens, and Islamic universities, the Arabic language is also offered in public schools and universities. Despite its accessibility as a subject, learners' competency in Arabic remains generally poor, even after many years of language instruction. This is particularly true of the productive skills domain. While results in grammar tend to be very good, students' skills in spoken and written Arabic are generally weak. In order to identify ways Arabic language learning in Indonesia might be strengthened, it would be helpful to explore factors that may lie behind the specific discrepancies observed in the skills of Indonesian learners of Arabic. As such, this study aims to investigate if there is a relationship between students' attitudes and self-concept the Arabic language and their skills in written and spoken Arabic. Do attitudes and self-concept significantly affect students' Arabic writing and speaking skills? Beyond this initial question, this study also explores whether students' language abilities might be differentiated by demographic factors and social variables. In this way, one could gain a deeper understanding of how attitudes and self-concept might affect students’ Arabic writing and speaking skills. The results of the study revealed that a positive attitudes towards Arabic does not correlate positively to their writing ability; however, a positive attitudes towards Arabic does correlate positively to their speaking ability. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that the students have a neutral self-concept. Self-concept does not show any significant correlation with their Arabic writing and speaking ability. Regarding their language abilities, the students demonstrated moderate ability in Arabic writing, and in speaking they exhibited good ability. Demographic factors such as gender, ethnicity, years of studying Arabic and learning institution did not demonstrate an effect on their speaking ability. Finally, this study could not find any correlation between students’ attitudes and self-concept with their abilities in Arabic speaking and writing.

The purpose of this study was to investigate students' attitudes toward science based on the four variables: achievement, gender, grade level, and area of schools. The samples of the research consist of 1023 male and female students in Aceh province of Indonesia. The study was conducted at elementary and junior high school in urban and rural areas. An instrument named Test of Science Related Attitudes (TOSRA) was employed to collect the data concerning students' attitudes toward science. The independent t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze the collected data under four variables. The results were as following: first, female students reflected more positive attitudes toward science than male students within all sub-scales of TOSRA. Second, a high achiever in science learning showed higher attitudes toward science, while a low achiever revealed lower attitudes toward science. Third, there was no significant difference between elementary and junior high school students toward science attitudes. Finally, students from urban area showed more positive attitudes toward science than rural area. The results may make important feedback for science educators to improve students' attitudes toward science, especially those of the male students that reveal lower attitudes toward science learning than females. The finding suggests that innovative programs and instructional methods, such as cooperative learning and science-based project, may raise students' attitudes toward science.
