CONSTRUCTING TEACHER’S SELF-ASSESSMENT OF RAPPORT BUILDING IN EFL CLASSROOM
ABSTRACT: A good education is
not only about academics, but also the positive social interaction in
classroom. Therefore, there is a need to build rapport in classroom
interaction. In building rapport, EFL teachers need to conduct several
activities, and through self-assessment, teachers can monitor and evaluate
their own teaching for professional development. However, self-assessment
instrument for building rapport has not been developed yet by any researchers.
To fill the needs, this study is established to construct a self-assessment for
teacher in building rapport in EFL classroom. By applying design research from
a curriculum perspective, the results revealed a self-assessment instrument of
maintaining rapport for EFL teacher. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (α = .928)
of this instrument indicated high reliability and the instrument can be
considered a reliable instrument to be used for the study sample. EFL teachers
can do self-monitoring and self-evaluation on their rapport building in
classroom interaction. Additionally, further research in investigating the
effect of using this instrument in assessing teacher’s quality is required.
