CRITICISM STRATEGIES USED BY PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS IN GIVING PEER-FEEDBACK IN MICROTEACHING CLASS

Rita Erlinda, Ceria Etika

Abstract


This study aims at describing types of criticism strategy employed by student-teachers in giving feedback on teaching performance in  Microteaching class. The utterances of student-observers when giving feedback to the student-teachers were recorded. Then, the utterances were analyzed to find out the types of criticism strategy employed by the student-observers by applying Miles and Hubberman theory. The results show that the student-observers exploited three strategies for direct criticism, namely (1) statement of the problem, (2) statement of difficulty and (3) consequences; whereas for indirect criticism, they also used three strategies, i.e. (1) demand for change, (2) suggestion for change and (3) correction.
