a Research Presenter- My Second International Seminar

Research (again)?

Yap , Alhamdulillah , I got a perfect chance to be a presenter in the 6th International Seminar of FBS UKSW in 2012. At that time, I tried to submit my research to be  selected in the seminar. Alhamdulillah, the committee accepted my paper, and finally I presented it :).  I was so happy :). Moreover, I got many benefits in which I could share my research, practice my public speaking, communicate to the experts, and build a great network. 

Actually, I used my undergraduate final project ("skripsi") to be submitted in the International Seminar. Finally, it's accepted. The title of my research was " The Purposes of L1 in TEYL in Kindergarten" . The following abstract of my research  will give general overview toward my research. Hopefully, you will get a lesson from this posting. 





THE PURPOSES OF L1 IN TEACHING ENGLISH TO YOUNG LEARNERS IN KINDERGARTEN

by : Candradewi  Wahyu  Anggraeni

ABSTRACT

Pro and cons in using L1 in English language classroom has been discussed for many years. The pro sides argue that using L1 in FL classroom will demotivate the learners in acquiring the target language. However, the cons sides revealed that using L1 in FL classroom gave positive effect in teaching-learning process, such as; to provide instructions or explanation, to manage or to discipline a class, to motivate students to learn L2, and to give comments on students’ works and progresses. Inspired by the pros and cons, this study has attempted to investigate the purposes of the teacher uses L1 when teaching bilingual-kindergarten students.  This paper is based on the classroom observations conducted in Satya Wacana Children Center, Salatiga. It aims at showing the use of L1 in Teaching English to Young Learners in kindergarten. The findings suggested that the purposes of using L1 still took important roles in teaching learning process.

Key words: Teaching English, Young Learner, The Purposes of L1
