Abstract

This study aims at investigating and revealing language politeness strategies, as well as the factors that influence politeness strategies used by Papuan students during virtual in the context of virtual academic consultations as a practice of virtual communications to the lecturers. This study uses descriptive qualitative methods and purposive sampling to choose two lecturers and fifteen university students from the Papua as participants. Data was also gathered through online observation, offline interviews, and documentation. Online observations were made by evaluating screenshots of Google Classroom comments and recording of written conversations on WhatsApp and SMS sent by ten Papuan students. At the same time, offline interviews were carried out 10 students and 2 instructors. The data is then analysed using discourse analysis, which consists of multiple steps, including data recording, data transcription, data selection, and data interpretation. In line with the findings of this study, Papuan students use four types of politeness strategies when consulting with lecturers via virtual communication. They are positive, negative, bald on record, and off the record politeness strategies. In online communication, the negative politeness strategy is the most prevalent among Papuan students. The diversity of politeness strategies that are replicated, even if they appear unpleasant at times, is not an aspect of purposeful or disrespectful behaviour toward the interlocutor. But let us get back to the level of language skills, which still require more attention and are impacted by a variety of internal factors such as personality and age, and external factors such as culture, facilities obtained. The findings indicate that even when language capabilities are restricted in virtual communication, Papuan students receive enough education. This situation will improve the civility of language that students in Papua use while conversing digitally. As a result, higher education institutions in Papua should pay more attention to standard communication patterns when academic consulting with lecturers as speech partners in the context of higher education in Papua in order to develop comprehensive and effective communication practices.

Abstract

The study focuses on addressing a knowledge gap in learning English for non-EFL students in higher education in Papua. Non-EFL students in Papua sometimes find English unattractive, if not frightening. Translanguaging helps non-EFL students to acquire and practice English skills in virtual classrooms. The purpose of this study is to investigate the process of non-EFL students' virtual EFL learning through translanguaging. A qualitative study was conducted through interviews and observations with EFL teachers and non-EFL students attending English classes. There are several non-English departments in one of the higher education institutions in Papua, which are sources of information in this study. The data are then analyzed qualitatively using a discourse analysis framework. The results of the study show that the power of translanguaging for non-EFL students is an option that is always used during virtual English learning. The process of virtual English learning uses different digital learning platforms such as Zoom meetings, WhatsApp groups and Google classroom. The use of this platform has its own privileges as long as it is used in virtual English learning with translanguaging. The process of learning English using different platforms can be described by two activities, such as teacher activities using translanguaging and student activities. Virtual English learning using translanguaging is also illustrated by the use of various language resources owned by students. This is an added value of virtual EFL learning using translanguaging. Therefore, it is highly recommended that EFL teachers use translanguaging during the virtual EFL teaching process to make it easier for non-EFL students to understand EFL subjects.

Abstract

Enhancing teachers’ professionalism and competence has long been a fundamental priority in education. For EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers in Papua, reflective practice is essential for addressing classroom challenges and improving teaching quality. This study examines the models of reflective practice adopted by Papuan EFL teachers across different school levels. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were gathered from five EFL teachers at elementary, junior high, and senior high schools through classroom observations, interviews, and document analysis, and then analyzed thematically. The findings identify three primary models of reflective practice. First, reflective teaching activities, such as asking thought-provoking questions at the beginning, during, and at the end of lessons, which stimulate student engagement and teachers’ self-assessment. Second, reflective writing, including teaching journals, diaries, and notes documenting students’ feedback and teachers’ impressions, fostering continuous professional growth and awareness. Third, dialogical reflection, involving debates, informal discussions, and sharing experiences with fellow teachers, which encourages collaborative learning and peer support. These findings underscore the importance of developing a formal, long-term policy framework to institutionalize reflective practice among EFL teachers in Papua. Such a framework would help ensure that reflective activities are systematic, result-oriented, and significantly contribute to improving teaching effectiveness and student learning outcomes.
