Student Teachers’ Ways To Integrate Character Values In EFL Classroom

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 7

Abstract

This article intends not to judge professional competence in delivering materials, but rather to explore the pedagogic competence in integrating character education in the process of teaching and learning English. The data source was from 3 students of English Study Program of Teacher Training Faculty of NHU who were in teaching practice program in the same school location. To collect the data, the researcher used documents of lesson plan and observation on teaching practices. The finding shows that there are 12 character values integrated in the teaching practices, namely: polite, confident, respectful, cooperative, critical, discipline, independent, communicative, curious, environmentalist, creative, and logical. Those 12 values were taught in different ways. Some of the values were taught explicitly, while some other values were implicitly inherent in activities. In conclusion the character values implemented are not the same as those planned to be implemented by the three student teachers.
