Almost all of the students who learn English assume that learning grammar of English is not so important. They often think that their English is already acceptable in every condition without good grammar. This assumption makes their care on how important grammar is for their English less. It causes their grammar competence becomes low. Besides, the lecturer’s way of teaching which is not interesting also gives contribution to this low competence. This pre-experimental research was done by implementing gallery walk technique which is believed as an interesting and challenging teaching technique in intermediate English grammar class. The objectives of this research were to know: (1) the students’ grammar competence before the implementation of gallery walk technique, (2) the students’ competence on grammar after being taught by using GWT and (3) the effectiveness of GWT towards students’ grammar competence. The population of this study was two classes of the third semester students of English language eduacation department of UNHASY in the academic year of 2019/2020. The sample was class B comprising of 19 students by using purposive sampling. The students’ average score of grammar before GWT was applied was 67. After GWT was implemented, their mean score of grammar became 73. Because the value of sig. (2-tailed) was lower than 0.05, it showed that the improvement of the average results of pretest and posttest was significantly different. Then, it came to the conclusion that GWT was effective for teaching grammar.

The study is aimed at developing the Idea Listing Technique (ILT) to enhance the students‟ writing ability. The Classroom Action Research was applied in this study. The subjects of the study were 31 students, the students taking the course of Writing II, of the third semester of English Department of one State Islamic College at Palangka Raya, Indonesia, in the 2012/2013 academic year. The findings show that the implementation of ILT can enhance the students‟ ability in writing expository paragraph. It is indicated by the enhancements of the percentage of the students achieving the score greater than or equal to C (60-69), and of the percentage of their involvement in the writing activities during the implementation of ILT in Cycle I and II. Thus, the enhancement of the students‟ ability in writing expository paragraph can be reached but it should follow the appropriate procedures of the implementation of ILT having been developed.Keywords: Idea Listing Technique, Writing Ability, Paragraph Writing, Expository Paragraph

Thepurpose of this study was to determine the Application of Cooperative Snowball Throwing Learning Model in Thematic Learning Class 1 at MIN 3 Banyumas Academic Year 2019-2020. The type of research data used in this study is a quantitative-qualitative approach (mexing method). The subjects of this study were class I MIN 3 Banyumas Lessons in 2019-2020 totaling 33 students. The techniques used in data collection are interview, documentation, observation and test techniques. The results showed that the application of the Cooperative Snowball Throwing Learning Model could improve the thematic learning outcomes at MIN 3 Banyumas in 2019-2020. This can be proven by the learning outcomes for each cycle. In cycle I, the average score of student learning test results was 67.73, the lowest score was 45.00 and the highest score was 90.00. This is known by comparing the pre-cycle value with the value of Cycle I, the test results where the value of Cycle I is greater than the pre-cycle of the average value, namely: 67.73> 55.30. Whereas in the second cycle, the average test score was 75.91, while the lowest score was 55.00 and the highest score was 95.00. this can be known by comparing the value of the first cycle with the second cycle, the test results in which the value of the second cycle test is greater than the first cycle with an average value of 75.91> 67.73. And in the third cycle it can be seen that the average value of the test results is 83.79, while the lowest value is 65.00 and the highest value is 100.00.

Like Henry Harris, I began doing intensive research on Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit in the mid-sixties. I recall going through all the chapters as a graduate student during one academic year, and looking around for commentaries. The only English-language commentary available was Loewenberg's Hegel's Phenomenology: Dialogues in the Life of Mind, which was suggestive of the dialectic taking place in the book, but not much help in getting over the “rough spots”. This gave me an incentive to work through Jean Hyppolite's commentary, not yet translated into English, with my basic reading-knowledge of French. My 1976 Hegel's Phenomenology, Part I: Analysis and Commentary was one of the first in a long line of Anglophone commentaries. Harris in his introduction to Vol. I. mentions this effort at “analysis”, along with Findlay's “analysis” accompanying the 1977 Miller translation of the Phenomenology, as incentives for the inclusion of his own improved running analysis in the present commentary.I have included discussions of numerous partial or complete commentaries on Hegel's Phenomenology in review articles published in 1971 in the American Philosophical Quarterly and (in Spanish) Teorema, in 1979 in the American Philosophical Quarterly, and in 1981 in Hegel-Studien. Harris has the advantage of producing the most recent of all these commentaries, and in a way offers us a compendium of everything that has been done on the Phenomenology. His analysis and commentary includes a survey of the literature, in which almost all previous laborers in the field can find themselves commended or criticized in the endnotes. Thus I find comments like “Kainz has completely misunderstood the argument here” (I, 312), “This is a point which Kainz has grasped more definitely than most commentators” (I, 315), “[Kainz] does not deserve the brickbat Flay hurls at him” (I, 613), and so forth. Other commentators, living and dead – Flay, Pöggeler, Navickas, Kenneth and Merold Westphal, Heidegger, Lauer, Werner Becker, Kojève, Wahl, Hyppolite, Labarrière, Bonsiepen, Forster, Shklar, Solomon, Werner Marx, and Robert Williams (to name just a few!) — are similarly discussed and critiqued. For some of us Anglophone commentators, such remarks may seem like red marks on essays from a patient professor. But certainly no one will mind, since Harris has spent more time and energy on this very specialized project than any of us. In fact, some former commentators almost have a “conflict of interest” in reviewing Harris' work, since so many of us have benefited at various points in our research from Harris' personal support and criticism. But in academics, as in life, mentors cannot always be assured of loyalty.

The research was aimed to the effectiveness of Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) in teaching grammar. Experimental study of pretest-posttest was used in this research. Non-randomize sampling was used as sampling technique. The validity test was calculated using point biserial correlation, and reliability test was 0.848 which was calculated by using K-R 21 formula. In analyzing the data, researcher used ANCOVA. The result shows that average score of pretest was 60,95 for experimental group and 60,00 for control group. The average score of posttest was 85,95 for experimental group and 78,9 for control group. The calculation of ANCOVA found that the value of F is 8.7 and F critical with df 76 at 0.01 level of significance 6.96. it means that F value was higher the F critical. From the result of data analysis showed that Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) gave effect on teaching grammar for 7th grade students of junior high school.
