Description
Summary:The research paper entitled "The Analysis of Learners' Conversation: Its Naturalness and Students Awareness" aims at uncovering the naturalness of turn-taking in the learners' conversation and to find out how high the learners rate their conversation. This research focuses on analyzing qualitatively conversations of Indonesian English Education Students that have been recorded and transcribed. For the first research question, there are five questions that have been previously provided by Hughes (2002). For this research question, the adjacency pair is the main focus to reveal the naturalness alongside other elements of turn-taking. For the second research question, learners were asked to rate their conversations successfulness. The result was that every learner knew that their turn-taking was natural and successful. It can be concluded that naturalness in adjacency pairs and students' awareness are related in conversation. There are some recommendations for teachers, learners, and researchers. For teachers and students, communicative competence is the ultimate objective of learning language, so learners have to be given ample opportunities to use the language. For further research, conversation can be investigated from the perspective of the interlocutors' gender. There were some interesting differences when the conversation was between a man and a woman compared to when the conversation was between two men or two women. Penelitian yang berjudul "The Analysis of Learners' Conversation: Its Naturalness and Students Awareness" ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap kealamian turn-taking pada percakapan pelajar dan juga untuk mengetahui seberapa besar pelajar menilai percakapan mereka. Penelitian ini berfokus pada menganalisa secara kualitatif percakapan yang dilakukan oleh pelajar Indonesia yang mempelajari Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris yang telah direkam dan ditranskripsikan. Untuk pertanyaan penelitian yang pertama, terdapat lima pertanyaan yang sebelumnya disediakan oleh Hughes (2002). Untuk pertanyaan penelitian ini, adjacency pair-lah yang menjadi focus utama untuk mengungkapkan kealamian serta elemen lainnya pada turn-taking. Untuk pertanyaan penelitian yang ke dua, pelajar diminta untuk menilai keberhasilan percakapan mereka. Hasilnya adalah bahwa setiap pelajar mengetahui bahwa turn-taking mereka alami dan berhasil. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa kealamian dalam turn-taking dan kesadaran pelajar saling berhubungan dalam percakapan. Terdapat beberapa rekomendasi bagi guru, pelajar, dan peneliti. Bagi guru dan pelajar, Kompetensi komunikatif merupakan tujuan penting dalam mempelajari suatu bahasa, maka dari itu pelajar harus diberi kesempatan yang cukup untuk mempergunakannya. Untuk penelitian lebih lanjut, percakapan dapat diteliti dari sisi jender pelaku percakapan. Terdapat perbedaan yang menarik ketika percakapan dilakukan diantara seorang pria dan seorang wanita dibandingkan dengan ketika percakapan dilakukan diantara dua pria atau dua wanita.
