Combining Student-based Learning Activities with Teacher's Encouragements to Foster Learner Autonomy in Elt

Teacher's domination and authority used to prevail the traditional language teaching is now left and replaced by more acceptable concept of teaching. This concept emphasizes on developing the sense of learners' responsibility, independence, or autonomy, for better learning outcome. Autonomous language learners are those assumed to have greater responsibility on their own learning for their own needs. A series of guided practice through a step-by-step manner is needed in order that students can be possibly trained to be autonomous, independent learners. This paper discusses learning activities created and designed by the students combined with teacher's encouragements to foster learner autonomy. Some theories and previous studies on learner autonomy are analyzed to support the discussion. It is believed that the combination between the two important aspects in autonomous language learning will strengthen the efforts of promoting learner autonomy in ELT. Keywords: English language teaching, learner autonomy, autonomous learning, learning activities, teacher's encouragemen

Pengaruh Scale terhadap Produktivitas pada Sumur Bn-52, Bn-104, dan Bn-110 di Lapangan “X”

BN-52, BN-104, and BN-110 wells are located on the X field, PT. PERTAMINA FIELD RAMBA ASSET 1, South Sumatra. The three wells are oil-producing wells in field X. Using the Vogel equation, the IPR curve and maximum flow rate of each well are obtained, which are 152.14 BOPD, 57.2 BOPD, and 53.76 BOPD respectively. By using the exponential Decline Curve Analysis calculation method, it can be seen the rate of decline in production, as well as the time of well production to economic limit. The results of the Decline Curve Analysis show that the BN-52 well will still be in production until March 2022, and the BN-110 well can produce until March 2020. In the analysis with the Stiff & Davis Method, carbonate deposits are proven, with each Stability Index value +1.19, +1.60, and +1.35, whereas with the Skillman, Mcdonald & Stiff method there was no scale sulfate, with S values of each well at 57,272 meq / l, 54,416 meq / l, and 55,147 meq / l. The scale causes oil production to decrease, consequently the IPR curve shifts to the left. The decreasing production of the three wells is due to a scale that inhibits the flow rate. Maximum flow rate was obtained by using the Standing correlation in each well of 100.06 BOPD, 54.53 BOPD, and 28.72 BOPD. The decline in oil production caused by scales must be handled appropriately
