CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
This chapter discusses background of the study, statement of the problems, objectives of the study, significances of the study, scopes and limitations of the study, and operational definitions.
A. Background of the Study
English as a tool of communication plays an important role as an international language in connecting people from various countries in the world. English is used in many kinds of field, such as, English is used as a clue how to operate the computer tools and internet program. Besides, English used to absorb the knowledge especially from the books written in English. But to master English is not easy for everybody, while, it has taught at the earlier stages of educational levels, although it functions as the local content at the elementary and so is at kindergarten. Whereas, English for Junior High School as a compulsory subject should be mastered by the students and becomes one of the subjects to be measured in the National Examination (UN).
Moreover, English has been introduced at the kindergarten although it functions as enjoyable. English has already introduced from the earlier stages up to the university to reveal it role, therefore, it cannot be neglected in formal education. The main objective of teaching English is to make the students able to read the textbooks written in English. In other words, the main goal of teaching English is to develop the students’ reading skill.
In line with the objectives stated explicitly by the Ministerial Decree No. 096/1967 dated 12 December 19671, the result of teaching English is not satisfactorily achieved in Indonesia.

materials which are presented to the students. In presenting the materials, they must be interesting and good. Teaching preparation is one of some factors in supporting the materials given to the students’, it has functioned to reach the goals of teaching English itself. The teacher must look into the curriculum as a main reference in making their teaching preparations.
The materials used by the English teachers should be concerned by some elements in developing them, namely; (a) the instructional objectives must be appropriate for each level and year, (b) the appropriate teaching-learning strategies which are used in teaching-learning process. All of them must be written down in the teaching preparations. So, the objectives of teaching English can be reached well.

CHAPTER II
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
This chapter discusses and presents the curriculum and syllabus, the qualification of English teachers, the instructional materials, the teaching English at Junior High School, the objectives of teaching English at Junior High School, the teaching preparations of teaching English at Junior High School, the implementation of teaching English at Junior High School, and the evaluation.
A. The Curriculum and Syllabus
The word curriculum has so many different understanding given by many authors, as Yalden states;
“…the curriculum includes the goals, objectives, content, processes, resources, and means of evaluation of all the learning experiences planned for pupils both in and out of the school and community through classroom instruction and related program…”2
The concept of curriculum given by Yalden above generally has similar concept with Tanner and Tanner which is stated that;
“curriculum has been variously defined as; the cumulative tradition of organized knowledge, modes of thought, race experience, guided experience, a planned learning outcomes, cognitive/affective content and process, an instructional plan, instructional ends or outcomes, technological system of evaluation”3
Besides, the definitions described above Saylor and Lewis made a classification of the concept of curriculum by dividing into some categories; (a) curriculum as the subjects and subject matters, (b) curriculum as experiences, (c) curriculum as objectives and (d) curriculum as planned opportunities.
The category of curriculum as the subjects and subject matters is the domain concept of curriculum itself. In the high school levels, curriculum refers to the set of subjects or specified course of study. Whereas, the curriculum as

experiences which are introduced by Ragan (in Tjokrosujoso, 1996:6-7) stated that “the term curriculum…includes all experiences of children for which the school accepts responsibility”4. While, the curriculum as objectives is series of things which children and youth do experience by way of developing ability to do the things well that make up the affair of adult life, it should be based on the skills and knowledge needed by adults. The last is the curriculum as planned opportunities for learning, because curriculum itself is a plan for providing sets of learning opportunities for persons to be educated.
In our education, the understanding of curriculum can be seen at the constitution number 2/1989 about the system of national education that curriculum is a set of plans and arrangements of the contents and the materials and also the model of presentation to conduct teaching-learning activities.
The curriculum applied in Indonesia now is School-Level Curriculum (for the next term the word KTSP is used) which designed the syllabus of any subject that must be developed by the teachers based on the content standard given by National Educational Standard Board (for the next term the word BSNP is used). The teachers must be develop them in the teaching-learning process through the teaching preparations, such as, the materials, the variety of indicators, the strategies used in teaching-learning process and kinds of evaluation used in teaching-learning process to get the teaching objectives.
The objective of English teaching is to develop students’ to communicate in actual communicative context. The communicative here means four communicative competences introduced by Canal (1983)5 communicative competence consist of four domains; grammatical competence, sociolinguistic competence, discourse competence, and strategic competence.
Grammatical competence identifies the linguistic competence, such as vocabulary, derivations, sentence formation, pronunciation, spelling, and semantics. And it refers to what Chomsky calls linguistic competence and what

Hymes intends by what is “formally possible”. It is the domain of grammatical and lexical capacity6.
Sociolinguistic competence refers to the understanding of the social context where the communication takes place, including role relationships, the shared information of the participants, and the communicative purpose for their interaction7. Discourse competence is the mastery of ways combining the grammatical forms and meaning to produce the spoken or written utterance in various forms8. Besides, strategic competence consists of the mastery of verbal and non-verbal communication strategies used by a speaker to (1) make-up for the weakness in communication due to the limitations circumstances, and (2) to strengthen the effectiveness of communication9. Then Richards and Rodgers stated that strategic competence refers to the coping strategies that communicators employ to initiate, terminate, maintain, repair, and redirect communication10. So, the instructional materials must be selected carefully in order to reach the teaching objectives in teaching-learning process.
Moreover, Syllabus is a plan which a teacher translates into activities in the classroom. It is a part of a curriculum excluding the element of curriculum evaluation, furthermore, Finocciaro and Brumfit (in Timsela Luhulima et.al, 1987:14) that a syllabus differ from a curriculum in that it provides a listing of content to be learned but does not suggest methods, activities and measurement for evaluation” 11, the syllabus should be viewed in the context of an ongoing curriculum development process. Syllabus and curriculum cannot be neglected, because to develop syllabus the teachers need the curriculum, it is as a main reference in developing the syllabus design. But, in fact, the teachers only talk

about the syllabus and most of them are rarely much in making it when they want to conduct the teaching in the classroom, so the syllabus which is written down into the teaching preparations are neglected.
B. The Qualification of English Teachers
Many factors affect the success of failure of teaching English. Those factors are related to linguistics and non-linguistic areas. Some of the factors which can be attributed to the unsatisfactory condition are the language system which is different from Indonesia, the teachers, the students, the curriculum, the materials and the attitude of the society toward the teaching of English (Kasbolah, 1993)12.
In line with the statement of Kasbolah, Baradja (1994)13 more specifically says that in foreign language learning there are at least six factors which determine the success or failure of foreign language learning. Those factors are learning objectives, students, teachers, materials, methods, and environment. Meanwhile, another factors which affect the success of a foreign language instruction can be classified into two; (a) linguistic factors, that is factors concerning the language itself such as phonology, morphology and system, and (b) non-linguistic factors, that is factors external to the nature of the language being taught, such as teachers, students, materials, methods and environment.
Those factors mentioned above, teacher is the most important factor in determining the success or failure of teaching English. Well-motivated students can be “turned-off” by the rigidly and lack of enthusiasm of a poor teacher. On the other hand, many unmotivated students can get an adequate degree of motivation if they are influenced by an enthusiastic teacher who knows how to deal with the students.

Humaniora dan Sains. Vol.1.no.1.(Malang: IKIP Malang, 1994).
According to Ashworth (1992), there are four characteristics of language teacher that are; (1) knowledge, (2) skill, (3) personal qualities, and (4) professionalism14.
Knowledge, it is the most important qualification for the teacher because they will be a model for his or her students. Therefore, they must have in depth knowledge of subject matter and must keep up to date. The teacher’s limited knowledge of the second language they teach imposes limitation on what they can do in the classroom. Such limitations should be overcome by diligent study of the second language.
Skill, English teachers should have knowledge of psychology of learning. They should also have knowledge of methodology, testing and technological aids. By having such knowledge, they will improve their teaching skill so that it is expected that the result of teaching will be better.
Personal qualities, the effective English teachers should have good personalities such as enthusiasm, kindness, humor, patience, sincerity, and intellectual curiosity. By having these personalities the teacher will make the teaching-learning process more attractive and fun. Besides, the teacher also will always improve their knowledge.
Professionalism, the English teachers must be graduated from English educational department. Besides, they also should engage in activities that improve the quality of their teaching such as MGMP (subject teacher conference). Being active in such activities will help English teachers to improve their quality of teaching.
In other hand, there are ten teacher’s qualifications that can make the teaching learning process optimal, they are; (a) he makes his course interesting, (b) he teaches good pronunciation, (c) he explains clearly, (d) he speaks good English, (e) he shows the same interest in all his students, (f) he makes all the students participate, (g) he shows great patience, (h) he insists on the spoken language, (i) he makes his pupils work, (j) he uses audio-lingual method.

D. The Teaching English at Junior High School
English became an important language, therefore, English is taught at Junior High School as a compulsory subject. It as a compulsory subject is aimed at preparing the students to develop some aspects such as technology, science, culture, etc. However, to achieve the objective of English instructional material, more or one aspect of the English syllabus may be more emphasize depending on the students’ need and the level of proficiency.

G. The Implementation of Teaching English at Junior High School
Teaching-learning process is an interaction between the students and teachers and among the students in the instructional process. In every teaching-learning process, there are some aspects that contribute to the effectiveness of the process are that (1) the objectives, (2) the students and teachers, (3) the instructional materials, (4) the methods, and (5) the evaluation.
There are some aspects to reach the objectives of the instruction that can be conducted effectively in teaching-learning process. They are (a) students, (b) teachers, (c) curriculum, (d) methods, and (e) media. Those aspects cannot be separated to each other. The teaching English can be applied in three steps or called three phase techniques namely; (1) pre-activities, (2) whilst-activities, and (3 post-activities. Those techniques can be applied well if the teachers made the teaching preparation, teaching preparation is important to conduct before we do our success oriented work, in this case teaching.
Pre-activities are the activities done by the teachers to prepare the real teaching in the classroom, for example plan. What should be taught, what media should be used, what objectives of the teaching are, how to evaluate them and when. Whilst-activities are the activities which are done in the classroom to present the materials and to induce the students to learn. And post-activities is the activities which are done by the teachers to evaluate what has happened to the teaching program, what has been successfully conducted and what has failed, what about the test, whether or not it is a good test to make feedback or revision.
On the notes of lesson preparation, Ur (1996; 350)18 stated that most experienced teachers actually prepare lesson twice; they have ready in advance a general syllabus of what activities and text. They want to get through during a certain period of the course and then they plan the actual sequence of components for a specific lesson and prepare supplementary materials a day or two days before.
H. The Evaluation
Gronlund, 1985 (in Wilmar Tinambunan, 1988:2) suggests that evaluation is the systematic process of collecting, analyzing and interpreting information to determine the extent to which pupils are achieving instructional objectives19. Evaluation must be conducted in the teaching-learning activities to know how well the students’ understanding about the materials which has given by the English teachers, as a general evaluation is the process of systematic information collecting through the numbers, verbal description, analysis, and information interpretation to give a score to the students’ work result. In additions Muslich add the concept about evaluation (class evaluation) as follows:
“Proses pengumpulan dan penggunaan informasi oleh guru untuk pemberian keputusan terhadap hasil belajar siswa berdasarkan tahapan kemajuan belajarnya sehingga didapatkan potret/profil kemampuan siswa dengan kompetensi yang ditetapkan dalam kurikulum”20.
Based on Muslich’s idea above that evaluation is used to get information about the students’ learning improvement during following the teaching-learning activities whether they able to increase their learning skills or not, it is also must be in line with the latest syllabus or curriculum that determined the content standard of basic and standard competencies.
Furthermore, Evaluation has two main categories and they are; (a) formative test and summative test. The evaluation process can be applied with
