The lack of students’ activities seems to be the main reasons why the teacher failed to maximize the participation of the students in a senior high school in a small city in East Java Indonesia. The unification of two different basic competences into one lesson plan also makes the indicator of the lesson plan become not too clear and not specific enough. Thus the research questions of this study are: 1. How is the implementation of the teaching and learning process based on the revised lesson plan conducted by the teacher? 2. How is the teaching and learning process based on the revised lesson plan followed by the students? 3. How is the students’ participation in learning speaking after the teaching and learning process based on the revised lesson plan conducted? This research is a classroom action research with one cycle only. The first data is in the form of description of the teacher’s activities during the teaching and learning process, the source of the data is the teacher who conducts the revised teaching-learning process. The second data is the description of students’ activities during the teaching and learning process, the source of the second data is the students who follow the teaching and learning process based on the revised lesson plan. The third data is the participation of the students when they are taught using the revised lesson plan, the third source of the data is also the students who follow the teaching and learning process based on the revised lesson plan. The researcher used unstructured field notes to write all the information which were seen and heard and also everything that happened during teaching and learning process conducted by the teacher. The data need to be sorted and classified to know the relevant data and non-relevant data. Then the relevant data were classified based on each research question to be analyzed. The students’ participation in the teaching and learning process of speaking narrative text based on the revised lesson plan was better, because the students could follow the instructions and do the activities of speaking narrative text smoothly, every student was able to present their stories in the group and in front of the class, they were active in the group discussion for asking and answering their friends’ question, they were also active in asking questions to the teacher and answering questions from the teacher.

Research has indicated that informal cooperative learning (ICL) can make the environment in a classroom more conducive for teaching and learning. Through ICL, students could focus their attention on the material taught in class and help each other in the learning process. However, implementing ICL may require more time and effort from the lecturers because they need to prepare teaching materials and different tasks for class activities. Some-times it may be difficult for the lecturer to monitor all students in the groups when implementing ICL. Thus, this study aimed to explore the im-plementation of team-teaching in ICL classroom. The action research meth-od was used in this study where the researchers themselves involve in im-plementing ICL through team-teaching, evaluate the process, do reflection and change the practice based on the evidence gathered. The participants were 32 first-year-students who were mainly exposed to the traditional method of lecture. Students and lecturers’ activities, behaviors, interac-tions, and reflections were recorded in a research journal and later analyzed to determine the students’ and lecturers’ experience in ICL classroom con-ducted through team-teaching. The findings showed that it was easier to monitor and facilitate the students as well as to manage the class by imple-menting ICL through team-teaching. In addition, the workload of the lectur-ers has reduced which in turn gave them more time to plan, prepare and or-ganize teaching materials.

This qualitative study introduces a pedagogic design which addresses the challenging task of teaching and learning self-awareness and critical reflection in the teaching of psychology. The context of the study was a course in personality psychology for first year students, and the topic of interest was how the perception of personality is affected by gender stereotypes. The pedagogic design included the recording of a mixed-sex dialogue, which was then digitally altered for pitch and timbre producing two gender-switched versions of one single recording. Students were divided into two groups who listened to one of the two different voice alterations, and were given the task to rate the personality traits of male or female sounding versions of the same character. In the subsequent debriefing seminar, students were presented with the data from their ratings. These results were then used as a reference point for inter-group discussion, and later students were also asked to reflect over the activity individually in writing. A thematic analysis of their written answers indicates that this pedagogic setup, in combination with guided reflection, can be helpful to challenge students’ own assumptions, aiding self-awareness and critical reflection related to stereotyping.

The Introduction to Engineering (ITE) and Industrial Seminar and Profession (ISP) courses conducted at School of Chemical and Energy Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, are integrated courses which implement the Cooperative Problem-based Learning (CPBL) methods in the same semester. Based on this integrated courses, the main aim of this paper is to investigate the qualitative impact of spreadsheet hands-on seminar on the first year students' digital skill. At the beginning of the semester, students are given sustainability-based project to work on, which requires them to collect and to report the data in a series of presentations and written reports. In order to present those data, they need to use analysis tools such as a spreadsheet software. The students are introduced with some in-depth applications of the Microsoft Excel software through the seminar sessions in the ISP course. With the knowledge that the students gain, they are expected to implement it in the CPBL project. A qualitative approach has been adopted to implement the study. Student’s reflections were used as the data source to identify common attributes that they have managed to gain from seminar sessions. This study has found that all students had primarily learned about digital skills. They perceived hand-on activity during the seminar as a good platform to acquire knowledge on basic calculation and developed learning skill on Excel. Moreover, students recognized the skills they are learning will be useful in other courses and future careers.
