Literature review of journal

Assalamu'alaikum ^-^

Hello everyone! Welcome back on my blog 🤗

In this opportunity I will share literature review on journal.

1. Scaffolding and Cognitive Learning Theory
The underpinning theories for this research are scaffolding and Cognitive Learning Theory.
Firstly, utilization of colorful semantics was in accordance to scaffolding technique because the color code cards acted as a guide in exposing proper sentence structure to pupils. Hence, pupils knew what was expected of them in writing sentences. They could also refer to the chart if they were unsure of the structure of a sentence. Next, underpinning the familiarization of pupils with different parts of sentences was cognitive learning theory proposed by Robert Gagne (1985). The core of this theory is Cognitive Information Processing (CIP) model which conceives learner to be a processor of information, in much the same way a computer is. In order to store information in pupils’ short term memory, repetition plays a crucial role as information tends to decay without being frequently attended to. Therefore, this method drilled pupils on words and sentence pattern frequently during the action implementation.

2. Colorful Semantics
This research utilized colorful semantics by Bryan (1997) to provide with a framework to construct sentence. Nouns, verbs, and other part of speech were written on cards of different colors and pupils would learn the way to join the cards to form a correct sentence.
In fact the action was chosen mainly because of this significant, workability, and practicality. First, the significance of this method can be seen through the positive result shown by 5 and 6 years old learning predicate argument structure of sentence in a study as cited by Bolderson at al. (2011). The colorful semantic also conveyed high workability. The color code cards helped to reinforce the knowledge on how and where words can be used in a sentence in pupils' mind. Then high practicality, it is can be seen through the low cost in printing the word cards, available sources such as workbook and pictures from internet, easy to mark questions and also relatively long time the color code cards were durable in information board.

3. Kurt Lewin's Action Research Model
This research used the spiral model founded by Kurt Lewin's as a basic feaframew of this action research. Lewin mde action research a method of acceptable inquiry which proceeds in a spiral of steps, each of which is composed of planning, action, and fact-finding about the results of the action (Burnes, 2014).

Thank you.. see you on my next blog that will share the next component of journal.
