Abstract

Good reading skills are related to individual basic skills in achieving success and prosperity. However, reading skills in Indonesia are still low. The evidence was from the PISA results, which revealed little progress from 2015 to 2018. In tackling this problem, one of the schools in Indonesia, the Junior High Public School (JHPS) 1 Muntilan, responded it by creating Literacy Online program (henceforth LION) to support government programs. Research on reading ability has been extensively done, but no study investigates the LION program. Therefore, this study aimed to discover the perceptions and challenges of teachers who have a pivotal role in the success of the LION program at JHPS 1 Muntilan. This study employed mixed-method research to get the data. The data was collected by providing a closed-ended questionnaire and interviews. The results of the study revealed that the teachers felt enthusiastic, enjoyed, affectionate, and comfortable with implementing LION. Moreover, the teachers revealed that theprogram gave a spark of hope and excitement for students toward learning autonomy.  The students were found to have evolved to more actively respond to the questions following the reading materials. Accordingly, this could lead to the success of the National Assessment. Interestingly, the teachers felt overwhelmed and confused when facing passive students and had limited knowledge to give proper readings.

Abstract

The focus of this study was to explore the frequencies and collocations analysis in Contemporary American English for the verbs come and go. To conduct the study, the researchers employed quantitative and qualitative methods. Data were collected from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) and analyzed using Benson et al.'s (1986; 2010) grammatical and lexical collocation types. COCA stores all tokens of academic, fiction, movies, blogs, newspapers, and magazine domains. All occurrences frequency of COCA was retrieved, and 300 tokens consisting of the words come and go were collected. The results showed that the word deictic go was more frequent than the word come in COCA, with a total frequency of occurrence of 55% and 45%, respectively. The type of collocation in the word go also had more variations. The word go had nine types of collocation, whereas the word come had seven types of collocations. This study gives applicable and relevant knowledge to non-native speakers of English.

Abstract

Slang words can contain particular meanings that cannot be interpreted directly. To know and understand the meaning behind the utterances, EFL learners can employ illocutionary force by analyzing the native speakers' daily communication of slang words. Therefore, this qualitative research aimed to explore the types of slang words and the illocutionary force behind the utterances in the Rampage movie. The data were collected from the movie transcript and analyzed using document analysis to explore the types of slang words and the illocutionary force. The analysis results revealed that all types of slang words were discovered in the movie, and the most used type was imitative, which occurred 14 times. The illocutionary force that underlined the characters implementing the slang words was to show that the speakers have higher status than the interlocutor, understand what they need to do in certain situations, ask other people to do something, want to show their psychological state, and they want to give a promise. The results of this study would enrich EFL learners' knowledge of slang words in particular and their vocabulary items in general.
