Abstract

This study analyzes the role of in-service teacher in supervising the pre-service teachers during 
the Teaching Practicum Program and in building the pre-service teachers’ character to be compe-
tent music teachers in the future. This study implements narrative inquiry as the method of re-
search. Narrative inquiry method explains the variety of cases during the process of supervision 
by the in-service teacher. In addition, the research was held in Pasundan 8 Senior High School 
Bandung and was analyzed further by using qualitative methods with interactive analysis as it 
is formulated in the research question of this study. Results show that the supervision by an in-
service teacher has been successfully enhanced the ability of pre-service teachers in teaching art 
and culture, particularly music lesson. The competence of pre-service teachers can be achieved by 
giving them examples, model, and music experience from in-service of the pre-service teachers.

Keywords: in-service teachers’ supervision; the competence of pre-service teachers 
in teaching music lesson

professional teachers who are completely 
understanding the learning environment 
theoretically and practically. According to 
Puspitasari (2013, p. 33), in-service teacher 
who has a role as supervisor in Teaching 
Practicum Program, has a responsibility 
to guide the pre-service teachers (partici-
pants of the Teaching Practicum Program) 
to create a lesson plan as one of classroom 
teaching administration. The lesson plan 
which is made by pre-service teachers 
has a slight difference format with the ac-                    
tual lesson plan used at school. So far, 
pre-service teachers seem to not have any 
difficulties since the in-service teacher (the 
supervisor) has given them a set of lesson 
plan format examples. Subsequently, the 

INTRODUCTION

In-service teacher in Teaching Prac-
ticum Program has a role to prepare and 
supervise his participants to become mu-
sic teachers. In-service teacher in Teaching 
Practicum Program specifically has a res-
ponsibility to give a real school teaching 
and learning experience to every pre-ser-
vice teacher who attend the program. Trai-
ning and guidance are usually given by 
compiling lesson plan, analyzing syllabus, 
and implementing learning components 
in the practice of classroom learning in the 
actual music classrooms. Participants of 
Teaching Practicum Program or the pre-
service music teachers are prepared to be

pre-service teachers only need to adjust 
their lesson plan to the fixed format which 
is written in the provided example. 

Frequently, the empirical facts regar-
ding to the actual teaching are considerab-
ly different to the initial learning which 
has been firstly has given in the teaching 
education program at the university level. 
In its relation to clinical supervision, Pus-
pitasari also argues that clinical supervi-            
sion is a form of professional assistance 
that is based on the needs of pre-service 
teachers (student teachers), and derived 
from a systematical observation and ana-
lysis regarding the actual behavior of pre-
service teachers in the classroom. Parwoto 
(1988, p. 84) states that this stage requires 
the pre-service teachers to practice their 
teaching and non-teaching skills integra-
tedly and intact in the actual teaching situ-
ation under an intensive supervision from 
lecturers and in-service teachers.

The Teaching Practicum Program is 
an activity which aims to prepare pre-ser-
vice teachers through an actual classroom 
teaching practice at schools. This program 
is located in schools or other institutions 
which provide teaching learning program 
for pre-service teachers. Hamalik (2005, 
p. 172) argues that Teaching Practicum 
Program is a series of activity that is pro-
grammed for students or student teachers 
comprises learning to teach or learning 
outside the teaching activity itself. This ac-
tivity is an opportunity to develop profes-
sional competencies required by the work 
field of teachers or other educational per-
sonnel. Further, this activity is aiming to 
form the personality of pre-service teach-
ers and to equip them with a set of know-                  
ledge, skills, values, attitudes, as well as a 
behavioral pattern. In addition to this are 
the competent and appropriate use of those 
aspects in the implementation of teaching 
and learning inside and outside schools.

Widiastuti (2013, p. 3) claims that 
Teaching Practicum Program is actually 
one of the essential curricular components 
which need integration between material 
comprehension and practice. Besides, the 
Teaching Practicum Program is one of 

intracurricular academic activity which 
comprises guided, focused, and integrated 
teaching practice and other educational 
duties to fulfill the requirement of the es-
tablishment of professionals in the field of 
education.

Supervision under the assistance of 
in-service teacher is a kind of supervision 
which is aiming to prepare pre-service tea-   
chers to become competent teachers. In 
other words, supervision purposes to pro-
vide teaching competency training to the 
pre-service teachers. Based on Shalaway 
(2005, p. 9),”teaching in today’s classrooms 
calls for reflective professionals set apart 
by special knowledge and skills”. It means, 
for teachers, teaching is not a kind of com-
petence which can be possessed easily. It is 
more of an arrangement of special capabi-
lities that shapes teachers become profes-
sionals. Here, the teaching competencies 
are given by in-service teachers through 
the process of music classroom teaching in 
the school environment to the pre-service 
teachers as the participants of the teaching 
practicum program.

The Teaching Practicum Program 
is a medium of giving teaching learning 
skills and knowledge training to pre-ser-
vice teachers in order to form them be-
comes professionals. Soewito (2013, p. 6) 
argues that Teaching Practicum Program 
and Community Service Program (Ku-
liah Kerja Nyata) is integrated aiming to 
develop the competencies of university 
students to become pre-service teachers 
or other educational professionals, in par-
ticular. Programs which are developed in 
the implementation of Teaching Practicum 
are focused on school communities, clubs, 
or institutions. School communities comp-
rise school internal community (teachers, 
staffs, and school committee) as well as so-
cieties around the school environment.

Besides the aspects described above, 
the changing of competencies which needs 
to be comprehended by students are the 
balance between hard skill and soft skill 
competencies. Curriculum development 
team (2013) states that there is an increase 
and balance between soft skills and hard 



HARMONIA : Journal of Arts Research and Education 14 (2) (2014): 88-9690

skills in Senior High School comprise the 
competencies of attitudes, skills, and kno-
wledge. Specifically, in Indonesian curri-
culum, the music lesson is derived from 
competencies. In the other words, the les-
son has to be in accordance with the com-
petencies. A study by Widarto (2012, p. 20) 
states that the hard skills and soft skills, 
learning strategy need to be implemented 
in order to prepare skilled employees. If 
the education is given at school, the acti-
ve learning strategy will be relevant to be 
implemented.

This study is going to explain that in-
service teachers should have the compe-
tencies to guide the participants of teach-                                                           
ing practicum (pre-service teacher) in 
order to implement the balance of hard 
skill and soft skill through music learning 
for students. An example of regarding to 
the previous explanation is the ability to 
lead a small discussion in ‘cooperative 
learning’ learning model. Zaher and Nasir 
(2010) conduct a study about the impor-
tance of cooperative learning approach. 
Based on them, learning by this method is 
more effective rather than other traditio-
nal learning. This learning is considerably 
important to give an opportunity to the 
students to have more experiences in lear-
ning. Here, the role of in-service teacher is 
considered to be essential to help teachers 
in giving an active learning experience rat-
her than the passive one.

Active learning experiences is con-
siderably essential to students, There-                             
fore, a pre-service teacher need to be awa-
re and understand the principles of active 
learning, such as: action learning or what 
is known in music lesson as learning by 
experiencing music. Leonarda (2010, p. 
121) states that the importance of learning 
using action learning is the opportunity to 
give students a space to develop their ma-
nagerial and collaborative experiences.

As it has been explained previously, 
the theory of teaching and learning deli-
vered in Teaching Education is frequently 
different with the empirical facts happened 
in the field. It is believed that this problem 
can be solved through the supervision by 

in-service teachers as the people who are 
in charge and have a considerable number 
of experiences in the actual music class-
rooms. This study is conducted to find out 
whether in-service teachers are having the 
competencies to mediate the difficulties to 
teach that might be faced by pre-service 
teachers and the need to implement the 
Indonesian newest 2013 curriculum which 
emphasizes the balance between hard skill 
and soft skill. Therefore, the research ques-
tion in this study is “Is the in-service teach-
er supervision able to make the pre-service 
teachers to become competent music tea-
chers?”. From the research question, this 
study is aimed to analyze the function of 
in-service teacher supervision towards the 
pre-service teachers’ readiness to become 
competent music teachers.

METHOD

This research implements narrative 
inquiry as the method of study. Narrative 
inquiry method explains a variety of cases 
and activities which happen during the 
supervision between the in-service to the 
pre-service music teachers.

Design and Assumption of the Study
Based on the research question stated 

above, the design of the study is illustrated 
in the following figure (see figure 1). From 
the presented chart, it is assumed that in-
service teacher has several significant roles 
towards competencies in creating lesson 
plans, carrying out the learning process 
of a music lesson, and implementing both 
hard skill and soft skill to the pre-service 
teachers.

The data will be analyzed by (1) 
finding out the functions of in-service 
teacher’s supervision regarding to the pro-
cess of creating lesson plans for the pre-
service teachers, (2) finding out the func-
tions of in-service teacher’s supervision 
regarding to the implementation of lear-
ning process for the pre-service teachers, 
and (3) finding out the functions of in-ser-
vice teacher’s supervision regarding to the 
implementation of the balance between

hard skill and soft skill. 

Data of the Study
Data of the study which is going to 

be analyzed in this study are (1) the func-
tions of in-service teacher supervision for 
the pre-service teachers, (2) the functions 
of in-service teacher supervision regar-
ding to the implementation of the learning 
process for the pre-service teachers, (3) the 
functions of in-service teacher supervision 
regarding to the implementation of the ba-
lance between hard skill and soft skill for 
the pre-service teachers.

The study will be started by an initial 
observation to understand the school en-
vironment and examine the preparation of 
the in-service teachers before supervising 
the pre-service teachers. The real research 
is going to be conducted when the teach-
ing practicum is started. The process of 
creating lesson plan will be done once in 
a week in the first month, and twice in a 
week for the following months.

The next step is to observe the lear-
ning process when the pre-service teachers 
act as the actual classroom teachers under 
the supervision from the in-service teach-
er. The conformity between the syllabus 
and the teaching practice will be analy-

zed. The aspects which are going to be ob-                   
served and analyzed further are (1) the use 
of learning approach, (2) the use of lear-
ning method, (3) the use of learning media, 
and (4) the steps and evaluation technique 
implemented by the pre-service teachers.

Specifically, data is going to be ana-
lyzed deeper by synchronizing the practi-
ce with the process of supervision regar-
ding to on how the music materials are 
constructed by combining the hard skill 
and soft skill of music. Descriptive qualita-
tive analysis is going to be implemented to 
process, verify, and summarized the data 
interactively. 

The interview will be conducted in 
the middle of pre-service teachers’ teach-
ing process analysis in order to obtain the 
information related to the performance of 
in-service teacher in conducting the super-
vision. The interviewees will be the vice 
head master of curriculum and the in-ser-
vice music teacher. Furthermore, research 
will be taken place in Pasundan 8 Senior 
High School Bandung, starts from the mid-
st of February to the midst of May, 2014 
during the teaching practicum program. 
The research instruments will be (1) the 
guidelines of observation, (2) the guide-

Supervision related to the learning 
method was done during the learning pro-
cess in the classroom. In-service teacher 
demonstrated the implementation of lear-
ning methods in teaching music. Methods 
which were applied by in-service teachers 
and were taught to the pre-service teach-
ers were the methods of practice, lectu-
ring, questions and answers, demonstrati-
on, and imitation. Lecturing method was 
implemented while giving an introduction 
to students related to the learning materi-
als which were going to be given. Questi-
ons and answers method was conducted 
during the learning process when students 
who had not understood the materials 
delivered several questions related to the 
given materials. In addition, this method 
was also implemented during the time of 
learning music practice. When students 
had difficulties in understanding or fee-
ling the rhythm pattern or singing a cer-
tain song, they would ask the teacher to 
find the answers or problem-solving. In 
this case, service teacher and pre-service 
teachers would give the answers by de-
monstrating or showing the way those 
music instruments or songs were produ-
ced or sounded. The method of practice 
was done during the time when in-service 
teacher or pre-service teachers taught mu-
sic. They would always ask the students to 
play music instruments by experiencing 
the way the instruments were played, both 
in rhythmical music ensemble or Degung.

Supervision Related to the Usage of Media in 
Music Teaching

The results of the supervision related 
to the usage of media in music teaching 
were seen when pre-service teachers per-
formed teaching and learning in the class-
room. In teaching, pre-service teachers see-
med to always use the learning media. The 
learning media which were usually used 
were audio and audio-visual media. Au-
dio media was used to give an understan-
ding to students related to the language of 
sounds that would be needed by students. 
This media would also become the tool to 
understand the concept and practice of 

dy of lesson plans, as well as (4) documen-
tation.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The results of the study have suc-
cessfully revealed the roles of in-service 
teacher to prepare the pre-service teachers, 
as follows: 

Figure 2. In-Service Teacher Gave an Example 
to Students (Documentation by  Latifah, April 

2, 2014)

In applying the learning approach in 
the classroom, pre-service teachers were 
following suggestions from the in-service 
teacher as a result of supervision. Several 
approaches which had been given by the 
in-service teacher as the examples were 
experience learning, cooperative lear-
ning, as well as appreciation. As a conse-                       
quence, approaches which were usually 
implemented by pre-service teachers were 
also as the same as what they have learnt 
from an in-service teacher during super-
vision. The approaches were experience 
learning, cooperative learning, as well as 
appreciation by conducting a group stu-
dy to discuss new musical events they 
saw from the audio-visual media. During 
the supervision, it could be seen that the 
in-service teacher implemented both expe-
riential learning and cooperative learning 
approach in teaching Degung rhythmical 
ensemble. In implementing the approa-
ches, in-service teacher asked students to 
experience themselves to play Degung (see 
figure 2).

certain music. In addition to the audio me-
dia was the presence of audio-visual me-
dia which was used to show the meanings 
behind the process of playing the music 
instruments contextually to students. By 
contextually meant that students were ex-
pected to understand and realize how cer-
tain sounds of music were sounded and 
played by the musicians shown in the pro-
vided media.

Another media which was always 
prepared in the learning process was mu-
sic chart. It was used to introduce the text 
of certain songs that would be sung by 
students. However, among those media, 
the most important one was the music 
instruments themselves. It would be very 
important for students who were going to 
practice to play the music instruments. All 
of those media were used by the in-service 
teachers during the learning process. Du-
ring the time of supervision, the in-service 
teacher demonstrated the ways to use tea-
ching and learning media which were later 
imitated by pre-service teachers.

Supervision Related to Evaluation
Supervision related to evaluation 

was done by in-service teacher, with the 
following steps: in the beginning, in-ser-
vice teacher introduced the technique of 
evaluation and the evaluation instrument 
which was used during the implementa-
tion of the 2013 curriculum. The evalua-
tion instruments comprise the activity of 
filling out certain rubrics to evaluate the 
students’ character building (soft skill) and 
scoring related to understanding the mu-
sic competencies and practice. After that, 
in-service teacher showed the example of 
evaluating students to the pre-service te-
achers directly during the process of lear-
ning. The evaluation was done by ticking 
the columns of providing a rubric based 
on the students’ characters which were 
observed as well as by giving score or                                                                                   
grade to the students based on their abi-
lities to comprehend the competencies 
during the process of practicing to play 
Degung musical instruments. Those eva-
luation activities were imitated and deve-

loped by pre-service teachers during the 
teaching practicum. 

Supervision Related to Aspects of Hard Skill 
and Soft Skill

Supervision related to the aspect of 
hard skill was initiated by the supervision 
to create the lesson plan. The lesson plan 
which was created by pre-service teach-
ers was implemented well by them in the 
classroom. It was proof that supervision 
related to create and implement lesson 
plan was done well by both in-service and 
pre-service teachers. Supervision which 
was conducted to help pre-service teach-
ers in creating lesson plan was done by 
giving them an explanation related to the 
gap between what is written in the les-
son plan and the theories of learning that 
will be implemented in the real context of 
classroom learning at school. The supervi-
sion was continued by giving feedback to 
pre-service teachers related to the lesson 
plan. In detail, in-service teacher gave an 
explanation related to the percentage of 
time allocation which was done during the 
learning process as well as the opening, 
main, and closing activities which would 
be done by pre-service teachers. Besides 
giving explanation related to the compre-
hence of creating lesson plans, in-service 
teacher also taught the pre-service teachers 
the steps to teach Degung in a contextual 
way as it was always done in Pasundan 8 
Senior High School Bandung. The process 
of learning Degung in this school was not 
done by reading the notation Da Mi Na di-
rectly, but more by memorizing (ngabeo) 
and imitating the teachers’ demonstration.

The role of in-service teacher in su-
pervising pre-service teachers were also 
seen from the way he taught the pre-ser-
vice teachers about hard skill of teaching 
music. In-service teacher was a model for 
the students, and he wanted pre-service 
teachers to also become a good model for 
the students. For instance, when an in-ser-
vice teacher taught his students to value 
the ethics of playing Degung music instru-
ment, he did not allow his students to step 
over the Degung instrument. Consistently, 



HARMONIA : Journal of Arts Research and Education 14 (2) (2014): 88-9694

in-service teacher showed that attitude to 
students. In addition, if there were viola-
tions done by students, in-service teacher 
would remind the students in front of the 
pre-service teachers, so that the pre-service 
teachers would know the way to rebuke 
the students appropriately.

Attitudes which were Modeled by the In-Ser-
vice Teacher

There were several attitudes done by 
in-service teacher which reflected exem-
plary attitudes towards pre-service teach-
ers. Some of the attitudes were silih asah, 
silih asih, and silih asuh. In the process of 
learning Degung, in-service teacher did 
not doubt to ask students to help each ot-
hers. He gave an understanding to the stu-
dents who had more capabilities in play-
ing Degung to help their friends who had 
difficulties in playing the instrument. For 
instance, if there were students who had 
difficulties in playing Kendang instrument, 
the in-service teacher would ask the more 
capable students to teach their friends to 
play Kendang patiently without having the 
feeling of arrogance. In addition, when De-
gung was played together, students would 
be asked to keep the pattern of the rhythm 
so that the less able students would not 
face difficulties in following the rhythm. 
More capable students were also asked 
to remind their friends when to play the 
instruments, for instance, gong which was 
supposed to be played at the end to close 
the Degung play. Related to the supervision 
for pre-service teachers, in-service teacher 
would always remind the pre-service te-
achers to give their students’ music lesson 
based on Sundanese culture, who empha-
sized the importance of attitudes and affec-
tive aspect which became the main basis of 
teaching positive character to students.

According to the interview which 
was conducted in this study to receive 
information from the in-service teacher 
on May 7, 2014, the teacher delivered the 
importance of Sundanese culture attitu-
des which comprise ngasah, ngasih, ngasuh. 
Ngasah meant that in teaching, teachers 
had to give knowledge and attitudes to stu-

dents according to humanitarian norms. 
Ngasih meant to give and care to students 
as if they were the teachers’ own children. 
Last-ly, Ngasuh meant to take care of or to                                                                                  
guide the students to the maturity of thin-
king and behaving in a mannered charac-
ter.

He also delivered that the concept 
of Karawitan had to be understood by stu-
dents as Ra which meant rasa or feeling 
and Wit which meant karuhun or ancestors. 
Therefore, Rawit (Karawitan) means the act 
of feelings and politeness that was based 
on values which was inherited from the 
ancestors. Moreover, there were several                                                
other Sundanese philosophical terms 
which were often used by the in-service 
teacher to educate the students’ character. 
Besides Silih Asah, Silih Asih and Silih Asuh, 
another term was Aji Luhung, Aji Komara 
and Aji Wibawa. Aji Luhung was an attitude 
which required a person to be skillful but 
not to be arrogant. Aji Komara meant that 
people were having high value because 
they were knowledgeable. The last one 
was Aji Wibawa meant that people had 
their dignity from their knowledge. All of 
those philosophical terms were supposed 
to be implemented in daily attitudes.

Besides the previous terms, in-ser- 
vice teacher was also introduced students 
to the conception of Sundanese philo-
sopichal term Wawuh ka Gustina, Wawuh 
ka Dirina, Wawuh ka Alamna. This philoso-
phical term meant to know their God, to 
know themselves, and to know their envi-
ronment. People had to know their God in 
order to be a religious creature that devo-
ted themselves to their God. People had to 
know themselves in order to develop their 
skills based on their own potential abi-
lities, and to know environment in order 
for them to keep the environment well and 
wisely.

The last Sundanese philosophical 
term which was usually implemented by 
the in-service teacher and was taught to 
students to build their positive character 
was Murangga Jati Sunda. It was the mea-
ning of life from the perspective of the 
Sundanese. That term was given to stu-

dents though the daily attitude approach. 
Those were the role of in-service teacher in 
the aspect of teaching soft skill based on a 
Sundanese cultural value which was con-
siderably meaningful to pre-service teach-
ers who underwent their teaching practi-
cum program in Pasundan 8 Senior High 
School Bandung. 

CONCLUSION

One of the functions of in-service 
teacher supervision is to strengthen the 
teaching competence of pre-service teach-
ers in order to achieve the balance bet-
ween hard skill and soft skill. Soft skill 
was taught by giving noble examples and 
introducing positive characters based on 
Sundanese culture by the in-service teach-
er, whereas hard skill was usually given in 
line with the implementation of soft skill. 
Hard skill was given to the students by 
practicing music. The teaching methods 
which were implemented here were de-
monstration and imitation by practicing 
Degung ensemble. This activity was also 
completed by teaching students the theory 
of music using the lecturing method as the 
introduction.

Supervision was done by the in-
service teacher by conducting several ac-
tivities, such as: an initial introduction of 
the music classroom environment which 
was continued by having briefing related 
to the steps of creating lesson plans. The 
conformity between lesson plan and lear-
ning process was exemplified by an in-
service teacher by demonstrating the te-
aching process of Degung music ensemble, 
starting from the way in-service teachers 
implemented the teaching approach, the 
learning method, the learning media, te-
aching hard skill and soft skill, until the 
implementation of evaluation techniques. 
During the teaching practicum, in-service 
teacher also helped the pre-service teach-
ers by explaining more about the way to 
teach music in an actual classroom. 

From this study, it is concluded that 
the role of in-service teacher is significant. 
The roles are to build and strengthen the 

competences had by the pre-service teach-
ers in order to be professional teachers.
