Abstract

IELTS merupakan tes yang sering digunakan untuk beragam kepentingan, seperti seleksi beasiswa, admisi ke program pascasarjana, prasyarat imigrasi, dsb. Hal ini membuat IELTS menjadi salah satu tes yang populer di dunia. Sayangnya, banyak peserta tes IELTS dari Indonesia masih sering mengalami kesulitan untuk memperoleh nilai tes IELTS yang memuaskan, sehingga berpotensi mengalami kesulitan untuk memenuhi keperluannya (studi lanjut, migrasi, dll). Selain itu, program kursus yang tersedia dipasaran sangat variatif dari segi harga, kualitas, hingga aksesibilitasnya. Untuk merespon permasalahan ini, diadakanlah kegiatan pengabdian dalam bentuk pelatihan IELTS writing bagi 40 orang peserta selama 10 sesi, atau setara dengan 20 jam pelatihan. Perbandingan hasil pre-test dan post-test memperlihatkan adanya rata-rata peningkatan performa peserta sebesar 0.88 band. Respon peserta pada kuesioner evaluasi program juga memperlihatkan bahwa mayoritas peserta merasa puas dan merasakan manfaat dari pelatihan dan feedback yang diberikan. Diharapkan dari pelatihan ini peserta dapat menjadi lebih siap untuk mengikuti tes IELTS dan dapat memperoleh nilai yang diharapkan.

Abstract

This study reports on a correlation analysis between the level of foreign language anxiety (FLA) of hotel business students and their oral exam performance. The participants of this study were 103 first-year hotel business students of a private university in Jakarta, Indonesia. Using Foreign Language Class Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) questionnaire, it was found that most business students (45%) have medium anxiety. It was also found that fear of negative evaluation is the main source of the anxiety among students. A two-tailed t-test analysis shows no statistical difference between male and female students in 90% of the questionnaire items. A Spearman-rank correlation coefficient analysis shows a significant negative moderate relationship between students’ oral exam performance with FLCAS results

Using Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA), the study analyzes how Garnier utilized linguistics features and discourse strategies and positioned their customers in the Garnier Green Beauty advertisement. The analysis revealed that Garnier employed some linguistic features (e.g., positive adjectives, pronouns, repetitions, etc.) and scientific-sounding words as a discourse strategy in the advertisement. It was also found that Garnier made a deliberate marketing decision to employ advertising, positioning their customer as empowered actors to create socio-environmental change. The findings also discuss the features distinguishing green cosmetics advertisements from typical ones.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the prevalence of plagiarism among university students and identify the specific types of plagiarism that are most commonly committed in their written work. To examine the extent of plagiarism among university students, the present study employed a textual analysis approach and utilized the iThenticate, a professional and subscription-based plagiarism checker. A sample of 39 participants, all students from an intact class, were recruited for the study and they each independently composed argumentative essays. The essays were subjected to analysis using iThenticate to determine the prevalence of plagiarized content and manual analysis was subsequently performed to validate the results obtained from iThenticate and classify the types of plagiarism present in the essays. The results reveal that the students' essays contained a relatively low level of plagiarized content, comprising only 9.87% of the total text. The most prevalent form of plagiarism detected was mosaic plagiarism, with 39 cases identified. This was followed by verbatim plagiarism, with 16 cases identified. The findings of this research suggest that the students may have difficulty dealing with mosaic plagiarism and may require comprehensive training on proper paraphrasing techniques.

Abstract

Foreign language writing can be a challenging and emotionally complex experience for learners. In fact, the literature has shown that learners’ emotions significantly influence foreign language acquisitionDespite the acknowledged influence of emotions in language learning, research specifically examining the interplay between proficiency, enjoyment, and boredom in EFL writing contexts, particularly among Indonesian university students, remains scarce. This correlational study investigated the interrelations between language proficiency, foreign language writing enjoyment (FLWE), and foreign language writing boredom (FLWB) among university students in Indonesia. The Oxford Quick Placement Test (QPT) was utilized to assess the participants’ proficiency level, while FLWE and FLWB scales were used to measure emotional dimensions. The findings revealed moderate positive correlations between proficiency and FLWE (r = .48, p < .01) and moderate negative correlations between proficiency and FLWB (r = -.58, p < .001). Additionally, a significant inverse relationship between FLWE and FLWB (r = -.53, p = .001) was identified. These findings suggest that higher proficiency fosters greater enjoyment and reduces boredom in writing activities. Implications for educators include scaffolding tasks to match proficiency levels and fostering positive learning environments to enhance engagement.
