Key Word: Discourse Markers, Students’ Presentation, Speaking
Discourse markers (DMs) are phrases and words that can help to connect ideas which can be used in spoken and written discourse to engage the ideas. DMs have a significant role in assisting students’ spoken interaction such as in presentation. The purpose of this research was to find out the types of discourse markers used in students’ presentation, to describe the functions of discourse markers found in students’ presentation, and to investigate students’ perception about the importance of using discourse markers in the presentation at IAIN Ponorogo.
This research applied qualitative approach and used descriptive design. The subjects of this research were students from the fourth semester of English Department of TBI A class at IAIN Ponorogo. The research got the data from the students’ presentation. The form of the data were students’ presentation videos, observation sheet, and interview sheet. To analyze the data, the researcher used the theory of analyzing data from Miles and Huberman theory. According to Miles and Huberman there are three steps of analyzing data those are data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions or verification.
The result of data analysis showed that there were four types of DMs that students used in the presentation. They are 1 Interpersonal marker (okay), 4 Referential markers (because, but, and, or), 7 Structural markers (okay, alright, well, first, second, then, so), and 2 Cognitive markers (I think, like). Then the researcher found 10 functions of discourse markers contained in students’ presentation. They are marker of showing responses, marker of cause, marker of contrast, marker of coordination, marker of disjunction, marker of opening and closing the topic, marker of sequence, marker summarizing the topic, marker of denoting thinking process, and marker of elaboration. And seven out of seven students agreed that DMs were important to use in the presentation because DMs can help to connect words, maintain the flow of presentation, help to fill the pauses, make it easy to convey the ideas, make the presentation more structured, and can help to make the transition between utterances.
From the computation above, it can be concluded that there were total 14 DMs that used by students in the presentation, those were okay, because, but, and, or, okay, alright, well, first, second, then, so, I think and like. According to the result of the study, DMs were important to use in the presentation and also can be useful to use in speaking.
