The main task in reading is to develop students' reading skills. This means motivating them to read. Real readers do something with what they read. Actually, students think that reading is an important thing to do. Because by reading they can achieve important goals or answer the questions they want. So, they are motivated to read because while reading they empower or enrich their knowledge. As teachers, we believe when we say "reading is a power". But for students to believe that reading is the power is not easy. Then, the teacher should put them in position to experience the power of reading. This means they must perform tasks and activities that show the power of reading. In their involvement in this reading power, the teacher must prepare interesting reading teaching methods so as not to make them feel that this reading lesson is very boring. The aim of this paper is to explain two teaching reading strategies, here the writers explore reciprocal teaching strategy and the face story strategy. Keywords: Innovative Teaching Strategies, Teaching Reading, Reciprocal Teaching Strategy, Face Story Strategy

Pronunciation is the way a word or a language is spoken, or the manner in which someone utters a word. If one is said to have correct pronunciation, then it refers to both within a particular mispronunciation. Many students usually make the mistake in pronouncing even the simple words. The researchers choose the students of SLUB Saraswati Denpasar as the research objects because they are in bilingual class that should use English better than others. The title of this research is ‘The violation of English pronunciation practiced by the grade ninth students of SLUB Saraswati Denpasar’. Based on the background of the study, the problem of the research can be formulated as follows: (1) how do the students pronounce selected words in English? (2) how do the students violate the pronunciation of English words? (3) What is the cause of their miss-pronunciation? In this research we use the main theory English phonology by April McMahon and Gerald Kelly. The method of this research is qualitative research which explains the analysis in description. The data of this research had been taken from 10 students of grade ninth SLUB Saraswati Denpasar. The researchers used the classroom action research to collect the data. They are collected by recording the pronunciation of the students. In general, the results are: 75% students miss-pronounced the selected words, meanwhile 25% students pronounced almost correctly.

The development of the global world has demanded the children of today to grow faster and compete more closely.

Through this paper, the strategies of avoiding plagiarism implemented by the participants were presented. There were 136 fifth semester students of English Language Education Study Program (hereafter, ELESP) in Mahasaraswati Denpasar University who willingly contributed to the research investigation. All of them enrolled the Writing IV course which mainly focuses on academic writing and plagiarism. To attain the data, an open-ended questionnaire was distributed which followed by interview and Focus Group Discussion (henceforward, FGD). The obtained data were analyzed by means of Interactive Model which involves data collection, data filter, data presentation, and verification. It was found that the students encompassed 4 strategies in the attempt to avoid plagiarism such as producing a thorough outline prior to drafting, using own words, citing: quoting, paraphrasing, and utilizing plagiarism checker.
