Abstract

Teaching English in university level demands the lecturer to be creative and innovative to develop the ways of teaching and delivering the content subject interestingly to the students. The common techniques that lecturer used in class are presentation and discussion where the students are demanded to present the material in front of the class and discuss the issues together with the lecturer. But, it is still found that this technique of presentation and discussion do not encourage students positive characters toward learning. Students only learn the material partially and they tend to be passive during the discussion because they do not read the article and resource book thoroughly in advanced. From the phenomenon happen in class the lecturer created Blog as teaching and learning media and assigned the students to be actively involved in the blog.This classroom action research was done in Curriculum and material Development subject, which taught theoretical lesson on the aspects of developing curriculum and material for English Teaching. It has 24 students and it was given in the fifth semester.From the observation it is found that the techniques of using Blog in posting students’articles of presentation and audiences’ summary after the discussion encourage students’ characters in learning. There are six positive characters found during the teaching and learning process in one semester; Honest, responsible, discipline, creative, critical, and independent. By Writing their own summary students are demanded to be creative, honest and independent in doing the assignments. Uploading the works on time also generates students discipline and responsibility. At last, answering and commenting on lecturers’ questions on Blog positively encourage their critical thinking toward the content subject.
