ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH LEARNING IMPLEMENTATION AT TENTH GRADE OF MAN 1 MAJENE BASED ON THE CONTEXT OF FINK TAXONOMY

Abstract

ABSRACT Researcher : Elsa Reg. Number : 10256119053 Title : Analysis of English Learning Implementation at Tenth Grade of MAN 1 Majene Based on the Context Fink Taxonomy

In this study, the researcher found problem that the Human Dimension was not implemented in English language learning at MAN 1 Majene, which resulted in low attention to the development of students' social and emotional skills, even though the knowledge aspect had been taught.This study aims to analyze the implementation of English learning in class X MAN 1 Majene based on Fink's Taxonomy, which includes six dimensions of learning. The subjects of this study were 1 teacher and 3 students of class X in MAN 1 Majene. Participants were taken using random sampling. The research method used was qualitative using data collection techniques in the form of teaching module documentation and teacher and student interviews. The research findings show that of the six dimensions, five dimensions have been implemented well, namely foundational knowledge, application, integration, caring, and human dimension. However, the learning how to learn dimension has not been implemented optimally. The foundational knowledge dimension is reflected in the use of various teaching methods, such as lectures, group discussions, and games, which are adjusted to students' learning styles. The application dimension is realized through student participation in debates, discussions, and simulations of real situations, which help develop critical and creative thinking skills. The integration of English material with other subjects, such as Mathematics, Art, and History, creates more relevant and holistic learning. In addition, the human dimension is seen from the teacher's efforts to help students understand themselves and others through discussions, projects, and reflective writing. The caring dimension is implemented by creating a positive classroom atmosphere, where norms of cooperation and mutual respect are applied. However, the learning how to learn dimension has not been implemented in depth. Although teachers provide guidance to encourage independent learning, students are still very dependent on teacher direction and have not developed strong independent learning skills. Therefore, a more systematic approach is needed in developing students' independent learning skills. This study concludes that the implementation of Fink's Taxonomy at MAN 1 Majene has succeeded in improving the quality of English learning, but more attention is needed to the learning how to learn dimension to support student independence and initiative in learning.
