Topik: Classroom management; Reflective journal; and pre-service teacher Fulltext: CULTIVATING PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS’ CLASSROOM.pdf (8.1MB) Isi artikel Classroom management is believed to be “The key to the whole success of a course” (Scrivener, 2005: 79). Conversely, many student-teachers and beginning teachers have found it very worrisome especially in their first-years teaching (Arends, 2012, and Goh and Matthews, 2011). It is, therefore, necessary to advance their professional practice in the context of a real classroom such as through teaching practicum and reflective practice. This paper is aimed at identifying the student-teachers’ classroom management problems as revealed in their reflective journal entries and to illustrate how such journal can help them develop their classroom management skills. The participants were 10 student-teachers of the English Department, Satya Wacana Christian University, Salatiga, who underwent their teaching practicum at SMP 2 Salatiga. Through the participants’ journals, it was found that the problems lie in managing critical moments (38,3%), activity (29,7%), techniques (14,9%), grouping and seating (8,5%), authority (8,5%), tools (8,5%), and working with people (4,25%). Further in this paper, both pre- and in-service tertiary teachers, curriculum designers, and policy makers will be taken to deeply examine how reflective practice can help cultivate the pre-service’s classroom management skills and to consider the implication for pedagogical practices and innovations in curriculum development.
