ABSTRACT
Siti Fathonah Wijayanti. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF GENRE-BASED
APPROACH IN THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH (A NATURALISTIC
INQUIRY AT SMA NEGERI 1 WONOGIRI). Thesis, Teacher Training and
Education Faculty of Sebelas Maret University, April 2015.
This study investigates the implementation of Genre-Based Approach
(GBA) in the teaching of English at SMA Negeri 1 Wonogiri in the 2011/2012
academic year. It is aimed at (1) describing how GBA is implemented in the
teaching of English at SMA Negeri 1 Wonogiri, (2) pointing out challenges in
implementing GBA and (3) identifying to what extent GBA contributes to the
quality of teaching and learning process.
The study employed qualitative method in the form of naturalistic
inquiry. Classroom observations, in-depth interviews, and documents analysis
were deployed to collect the information related to the genre-based teaching and
learning activities in the eleventh grade of SMA N 1 Wonogiri. The data were
then analyzed using Miles and Huberman‟s Interactive Model, which includes
data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing or verifying.
The findings of this study suggest that the implementation of GBA in the
teaching of English in the eleventh grade of SMA N 1 Wonogiri is relevant with
the curriculum recommendation, albeit still partial in some respects. A number of
challenges remained during the implementation, i.e., learners‟ vocabulary gap,
learners‟ lack of grammatical competence, the „irrelevancy‟ between the final
examination and the learning process, and the higher demand on teacher; all of
which in some ways affected teacher‟s adoption of GBA. The study further
indicates that GBA could help developing learners‟ productive skills;
nevertheless, insufficient scaffolding during the learning process resulted in
learners‟ skills which are superficial rather than communicative in nature.
Insufficient scaffolding was arguably related to the inappropriate activities
employed in the joint construction stage, the partial application of the Curriculum
Cycle, and the absence of integrated grammar teaching during the English lesson.
Contextual factors such as the lack of planning in implementing GBA and
inadequate trainings teacher received to implement this approach were of major
contribution to such a phenomenon.
Finally, there is a call for supports from any related stakeholders,
including the school, the MGMP, teacher training programs, and the curriculum
designers and/or policy makers, so that the implementation of GBA would be at
its best in the long run. Further research is recommended, particularly on how
grammar could be taught integrated through GBA in Indonesian EFL context.
Keywords: genre-based approach, scaffolding, quality of teaching and learning,

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Alhamdulillahirabbil‟alamiin. Praise be to Allah SWT for the countless
blessing and love poured upon me; for every „new‟ chance to live, to breathe the
fragrance of life, to taste the bittersweet of learning, to live life to the fullest. It is
because of Allah‟s help that this thesis could finally be accomplished.
These last three years have witnessed the intricate struggle of my thesis
completion. The stumbling and falling, the moment of desperation, the search for
the unknown, and the moment when those scattered pieces named „spirit‟ finally
found me back. If it were not for the support, assistance, and encouragement from
many individuals, this thesis would have never been finished. Therefore, I would
especially like to express my deepest gratitude to:
1. My beloved family: Ibuk and Almarhum Bapak, for the endless love, trust,
support, pray, and incomparable patience; and Dek Est, for being a fussy yet a
caring sister, and a best friend indeed. Thank you for always keeping me
company.
2. My thesis supervisors: Prof. Dr. Joko Nurkamto, M.Pd. and Hefy Sulistyawati,
S.S., M.Pd. for the patience, guidance, critical suggestions, encouragement,
and enlightenment during the writing of this thesis.
3. Dra. Dewi Rochsantiningsih, M.Ed., Ph.D., for being a considerate and
motivating academic supervisor.
4. Kristiandi, S.S., M.A., for inspiring me in many ways.
5. All lecturers of English Education Department, for countless knowledge,
inspiration, and values of life during the course of my study.
6. Teacher DR, for the guidance and immense help during the research; for all
insightful conversations and ideas-sharing. I learn a lot from you, Ma‟am.
7. The students of class XI Social Science 1, XI Natural Science 7, and XI
Natural Science 5, for the cooperation during the research.
8. “Nu-House” family, for the abundant kindness, and for accepting me the way I
am. Keep lighting up more and more candles!

9. Family of English Students Association (ESA), especially the “ex-PHT
Kabinet Perubahan”: Lucky, Iful, Mbak Nindy, Mita, Mbak TM, Andra,
Indah, and Ambon. Thank you for the overwhelming support and attention.
The bullying might become the thing I would miss the most from you, Guys!
10. My fellow students in English Education Department, especially Mbak Sulis,
Dinda, Zara, Mbak Eka, Irene, Mbak Ditra, Nia, and Kalis. Thank you for the
gentle reminder, support, help, and encouragement during the „agonizing‟
writing of this thesis. May we all be such inspiring teachers for our students.
11. Awal, Sekar, Mbak Vis, Evi, and Alfiza, for all the stories shared, and for the
patience to always listen to my random thoughts of life.
12. “Langit”, for the rain and the rainbow; the sun and the cloud; the dawn and the
twilight, the moon and the stars; the endless beauty and inspiration. Thank you
for always pushing me to see beyond what eyes can see. You just never fail to
awe me.
Finally, I hope that this thesis could shed some light on the issues of
Genre-Based Approach in Indonesian EFL context and further give meaningful
contribution for education in Indonesia.
