Nobody can claim that all instructions are free from problems. Realizing that all instruction are potential to have problems, college teachers should do reflective practices.  One of the do reflective practices which can be done integratively and sytematically with their instructions is classroom action research (CAR). The present study tried to investigate the lecturers’ perception on CAR. The study focused on the indentifi-cation of  the lecturers’ awareness on CAR and digging up the the factors affected the lecturers perception on CAR. The study employed survey method which posited qualitative   approach. The study  revealed that the leacturers’ awareness on CAR was relatively low. It also indicated that  there were some factors which affected the lecturers’ awareness on CAR i.e., 1) the lecturer’s prior education or pre-service education; 2) their involvement in scientific forums; 3) self-regulated learning by reading books on CAR.

The classroom action research was to increase the self regulated learning (SRL) and the understanding toward research methodology in the Postgraduate Study Program. The participants who had been involved in the study were 19 postgraduate students in the project-based learning (PjBL). The projects of students were blogs for representing their understanding toward the research methodology by means of articles and a researchproposal. The classroom action research used of Khemis & MacTaggart model was conducted in two cycles. The researcher performed the data analysis by implementing the mixed methods qualitatively and the data analysis would be supported by the quantitative analysis. The results of the study showed that after finishing the course, in addition to gaining knowledge regarding the research method, through the project-based learning the postgraduate students had also been able to compose research proposal. The other advantages are the project-based learning might rehearse the students’ communication skills using blog and had been able to increase the self-regulated learning.

Abstrak. Penelitian tindakan kelas ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar dan kemandirian belajar siswa melalui teknik pembelajaran jigsaw. Subjek penelitian ini adalah 36 siswa kelas XI Jurusan IPA SMU Negeri1 Depok, Yogyakarta. Langkah-langkah penelitian tindakan kelas mengacu pada model Kemmis dan McTaggart dimana setiap siklus tindakan meliputi perencanaan, tindakan, observasi, dan refleksi. Instrumen penelitian terdiridari lembar pengamatan pelaksanaan pembelajaran dan pengamatan terhadap partisipasi siswa, kuis, angket kemandirian belajar, angket sikap siswa dan wawancara. Penelitian ini terlaksana dalam 2 siklus. Hasil penelitianmenunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran geometri dengan menerapkan teknik jigsaw dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa, yaitu sebanyak 78.13% siswa tuntas belajar pada siklus 2 dengan adanya tindakan antara lain visualisasimateri dengan software CABRI, pemberian bimbingan atau petunjuk dalam mengaktifkan proses kognitif siswa untuk memahami materi,  memvisualisasikan konsep melalui gambar yang menarik menggunakan presentasi dengan software CABRI dan melibatkan siswa dalam penilaian kuis. Sebelum siklus 1, sebanyak 32.26% siswa mampunyai kemandirian belajar kualifikasi atas dan setelah siklus 2 meningkat menjadi 37.93% siswa. Peningkatan kemandirian belajar terlihat menonjol terutama dalam hal menumbuhkan motivasi belajar, merumuskan tujuan belajar dan mengevaluasi hasil belajarnya.Kata Kunci: Jigsaw, hasil belajar matematika, kemandirian belajarAbstract. The classroom action research has been done to improve performance and self-regulated learning through a jigsaw learning technique. The subject was 36 grade 11 students majoring in Natural Science; at a publichigh school namely SMU Negeri 1 Depok, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The classroom action research followed the model introduced by Kemmis and McTaggart, in which a cycle consist four steps: planning, action, observationand reflection. The instruments to collect the data were observation sheets of learning activity and students’ participation during learning, quizzes, questionnaire of self-regulated learning and attitude, as well as interviewsheet. There were two cycles of learning in the research. The result indicated that the geometry lesson implementing the jigsaw technique 78.13% students master the learning competence after the second cycle. Specifically, the actions were visualization to be learnt material using CABRI application, giving guidance or hint to activate students’ cognitive process while understanding material, using interactive pictures when presenting aconcept and involved students when marking the quizzes’ results. The percentage of students who had selfregulated learning on high level in the first and second cycles were 32.26% and 37.93% respectively. The improvement of self-regulated learning was mostly in self learning motivation, defining learning goals and selflearning evaluation.Keywords: jigsaw, mathematics learning performance, self-regulated learning

ABSTRAK Masih kurang  minatnya siswa dalam belajar khususnya pelajaran matematika,  salah satu sebab adalah  metode yang digunakan oleh guru masih konvensional dan siswa bekerja secara individu, sehingga siswa yang kurang mampu kesulitan dalam memahami konsep dengan benar.Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar bilangan berpangkat dengan  model problem posing pada siswa kelas IX SMP Negeri 4 Batu.Penelitian ini menggunakan desain  Penelitian Tindakan Kelas  (Classroom Action Research),  pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan  kualitatif yaitu penelitian yang datanya tanpa menggunakan teknik statistik. Penelitian tindakan kelas ini dilaksanakan dalam dua siklus. Setiap siklus terdiri dari perencanaan, tindakan, observasi dan refleksi.Berdasarkan data yang diperolah dari pelaksanaan tindakan mulai siklus 1 sampai dengan siklus 2 dan berdasarkan hasil observasi tiap-tiap siklus terjadi peningkatan prestasi yaitu siswa yang mendapat nilai kurang dari KKM dari 17 siswa menjadi 7 siswa, mengalami peningkatan siswa yang mendapat nilai memenuhi KKM dari 18 menjadi 27 siswa, dan rata-rata tes siswa dari  62,29 menjadi 71,76 mengalami kenaikan 2,47%, serta prosentase ketuntasa juga mengalami peningkatan dari 48,6% menjadi 79,4% meningkat 30,8%.Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa dengan pendekatan model problem posing dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa khususnya pada materi bilangan berpangkat. Kata Kunci: Peningkatan hasil belajar, Bilangan berpangkat, Problem Posing ABSTRACT The lack of student’s study interest especially on mathematics, one of the reason is the method is still conventional and students work individually, with the result that students harder to understanding the concept correctly. The purpose of this research is improving learning outcome on exponential numbers with problem posing model in 3rd years students on State Junior High School Batu. This research using Classroom Action Research design and qualitative approach, which is the research that not using statistics technique. This Classroom Action Research executed in two cycle. Every cycle consist of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Based on data that obtained from the 1st cycle until 2nd cycle and based on observation from every cycle there is an achievement increase that is students that having under the minimum learning mastery standard from the initial is 17 students increase to 7 students, then there is increase the numbers of students that having on the minimum learning mastery standard from 18 to 27 students, and the average of students’ test from 62,29 to 71,76 (increasing 2,47%), so the percentage of learning mastery increased from 48,6% to 79,4% increase for about 30,8%. This shows that Problem Posing approach can increasing student’s study result especially on exponential numbers subject. Keyword: Increase of study result, Exponential numbers, Problem Posing

This chapter discusses teaching the History of the English Language (HEL) as a sociolinguist and being guided by three areas in learning sciences: goals, self-regulated learning, and interest, particularly social and personal. Specifically, this chapter addresses the age-old student question, “How is this relevant to me?” Part of our job as college teachers involves getting students to realize the practicality of a course for their needs (e.g., “I need to take this class in order to graduate”), and another part is to acknowledge (or awaken in some cases) their intellectual curiosity (e.g., “I’ve always wondered why “knight” is spelled with letters that aren’t even pronounced”). This chapter provides examples of instruction and assignments that correspond to research literature on goals and interest with respect to teaching and self-regulated learning more broadly and teaching HEL from the perspective of a sociolinguist more specifically.
