A TRANSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH TEXTS IN BAHASA INGGRIS WHEN ENGLISH RINGS THE BELL
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Problem
Education is a long term process that people conduct in
their whole life. It is a process of transferring knowledge, building
characters, and also involvement in the social environment. Education can be divided
into three types. Those are formal, non-formal, and informal. Formal education is
usually related to school and university which enables the students to interact
with their teacher and other students in a classroom to get deeper
understanding of knowledge.
Recently, the government still develops the
implementation of Curriculum 2013 as the improvement of the previous curriculum.
English is one of many subjects taught in school that is also developed and
changed. In Curriculum 2013, English is only an extracurricular lesson for the
students of elementary school. For junior high school students, it is taught
for about four class hours in a week. The teaching and learning process
hopefully can be more communicative and relevant to many competencies and
skills needed by the society.
Since it is newfangled Curriculum, there are only several
schools implementing Curriculum 2013. Based on the data of Kemendikbud, in D.I.
Yogyakarta there are 29 junior high schools, 29 senior high schools, and 23
vocational schools implementing this curriculum. In line with the renewal
curriculum, the decision to provide a new textbook is based on the relevant
standard competence and basic competence stated on the curriculum.
In the time of conducting this study, the government has published
textbooks of some subjects for students in class I, VI, VII, and X. The textbook
are accepted by virtue of Permendikbud No 71 Tahun 2013. The English textbook
used by junior high school students has also been published and distributed
while some senior high school students still used English textbooks referring to
the previous curriculum and a module provided by the teacher.
The Ministry of Education and Culture has provided a book
for English subject in relevance to the recent curriculum entitled Bahasa Inggris
When English Rings the Bell. The book is for the seventh grade students and contains
eight chapters for an academic year. It is accompanied by a manual book for the
teacher. The materials are visualized in enjoyable ways through games, pictures,
and also include songs in some chapters.
On the other hand, how the teachers and the students implemented the language features and competencies promoted by the textbook are questionable. This happens because the textbook is quite different in visualizing the materials. It contains many pictures and involves many characters. The textbook users still need to be creative in using textbook to reach the expected competencies stated in the basic and standard competence of the Curriculum. Therefore, the study of the language in accordance with the English teaching and learning material should be conducted in order to know how to implicate the recent Curriculum through textbook.
