Abstract

This study analyses how news coverage of Nadiem Makarim’s public statement on the Merdeka Belajar policy in Tempo is constructed through Fairclough’s Three-Dimensional model. The objective is to reveal how ideology and power relations are communicated in this discourse. Employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as its methodological framework, data were collected with document analysis of a Tempo online article Bowen (2009) and examined through Fairclough’s three dimensions that include description (text analysis), interpretation (processing analysis), and explanation (social analysis). Findings show that Nadiem’s statement is represented as an urgency demanding government action that framed across all three CDA stages. At description level, lexical choices, nominalization, passivization, and transitivity foreground ideological framing and underscore governmental leadership in promoting transformative education. At interpretation level, media credibility is negotiated through the selection of news sources and a balance between subjective and objective reporting. At the explanation level, socio-cultural and political contexts, including the Minister’s self-image, ideological conflicts between progressive and conservative group, hierarchical power relation, and enduring traditional cultural values that shape and legitimize the policy discourse. Implications of this study highlight the pivotal role of language in building public trust and legitimizing transformative education reforms. This research offers valuable insights for policy makers, educators, and future CDA studies in educational contexts.

Abstract

Teaching English vocabulary to secondary school students requires effective strategies to support vocabulary acquisition. However, there is still a lack of a comprehensive understanding of teachers’ most effective techniques. Therefore, this study aims to identify teachers’ strategies for teaching English vocabulary to junior high school students in Tasikmalaya. The research used a descriptive case study design, with data collected through semi-structured interviews with a teacher who is an English education graduate. The data were analyzed using qualitative methods as described by Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014). The findings highlight three main areas: (1) Vocabulary learning strategies, such as games, pictures, realia, songs, translation, gestures, and memorization; (2) Classroom management strategies, including fostering enthusiasm, organizing group activities, encouraging participation, and creating a positive learning environment; (3) Vocabulary assessment, utilizing various methods to measure vocabulary proficiency. The study concludes that these strategies foster a positive learning environment and motivate students to expand their English vocabulary. The findings also suggest that enhancing teachers’ creativity in developing these strategies can significantly improve students’ vocabulary acquisition.

Abstract

Multimodality has gained burgeoning attention among scholars from miscellaneous disciplines, such as Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Semiotics, Sociology, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, and Language Pedagogy. Nevertheless, little is known about the issue of what teaching materials students need to develop their multimodal literacy, notably in the Indonesian EFL milieu. Hence, this case study addresses this void by examining what type of teaching materials university undergraduate students need to cultivate their multimodal literacy. This study involved 99 undergraduate students from three diverse classes as the participants. The data were garnered through a qualitative survey and semi-structured interviews. They were analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006). The findings outlined the needed multimodal teaching materials by the students encompass praxis-oriented multimodal teaching materials, awareness-raising multimodal teaching materials, academic and professional orientation of multimodal teaching materials, simplified and understandable multimodal teaching materials, critical multimodal teaching materials, and visual-verbal relation-informed teaching materials.  The shifting needs of communication, literacy, and 21st-century learning skills remain crucial as a nexus between literacy policies and practices in higher education contexts, especially in Indonesia. More importantly, this study attempts to promote the magnitude of multimodal literacy in language education.

Abstract

Podcasts have gained popularity among a vast number of listeners who utilize them to enhance their English listening skills. However, limited classroom time is allocated for focused listening practice. This research aims to investigate students' perceptions of using podcasts as an effective means of improving their listening abilities. Three participants volunteered to take part in the study, and additional recruitment efforts were made to encourage more student volunteers. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather data, allowing for the exploration of individual experiences, attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs related to the use of podcasts. Four key themes emerged from the participants' perceptions: 1) Hearing the message, 2) Interpreting the message, 3) Evaluating the message, and 4) Responding to the message. Listening involves interpreting the communicative behavior of others to comprehend its meaning, and effective listeners ensure they have all the necessary information before forming opinions. The findings indicate that podcasts facilitate clear message reception, provide verbal and non-verbal cues for deeper interpretation, offer features to optimize the listening process, and provide an authentic experience of listening to native speakers. Future research is recommended to explore students' perceptions of using podcasts for improving other English language skills.

Abstract

Teaching English speaking has become a centre of attention among scholars and teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) practitioners for a few decades. However, the issue of teaching English speaking in Kampung Inggris/English Village remains under-researched, notably viewed from the tutors’ challenges and solutions in the Indonesian English as a foreign language (EFL) milieu. This study addressed this gap. Two English tutors from Kampung Inggris/English Village got involved as the participants. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed with thematic analysis. The findings reported that there were five challenges encountered by tutors when teaching English speaking, namely tutors' inability of exploring English language teaching materials, tutors' insufficient English vocabulary, tutors' ineffective time management during language teaching practices, demotivated tutees to learn English, and perceived teaching anxiety. In addition, the tutors stipulated four solutions to cope with such challenges, namely building a good rapport between tutor and tutees, tutors' self-motivation to English vocabulary enrichment, selecting appropriate and providing updated English language teaching materials, and motivating English language tutees. Therefore, teaching English speaking should not only rely on immersing students in fluency-based activities but also manage tutees' psychological factors to attain more effective teaching English speaking objectives.

Abstract

Teacher identity has a significant impact on teachers’ decisions on teaching processes, teaching and learning material, teacher-student relationships, and professional development. However, in its implementation, there is unclear identity that confuses the standards, and a lack of charisma in the EFL teacher profile, while an ideal language teacher is crucial to building a successful learning to foreign language. Data taken from critical reflection (Rolfe, 2014) written by English education department students. They are university students who joins English Phonetics and Phonology class. The tutor facilitates the teaching learning based on the principal of critical language awareness. Data are analyzed based on the foundation the framework Van Dijk identity construction (van Dijk, 2015). There result shows that identity represented to what someone thinking, belief, and perceive, and it realizes into social practice (teaching and learning English as foreign language). In this context, it creates the teacher or lecturer to be the agent of change. For the research, interview should be conducted to explore deeper understanding how the teacher construct EFL identity to support the success of EFL teaching learning process.

Abstract

Language knowledge and presentation skills are part of the essential characteristics that an English tutor must possess. However, in reality, a tutor who identifies as a non-native English speaker is not really able to be an adequate model for English language learning coupled with many traditional methods that fail to meet the diverse needs of students, for example not utilizing modern technological tools effectively, and sometimes tutors do not have sufficient awareness of pedagogical knowledge and linguistic knowledge to be a role model of English in the EFL context. Through critical reflection using the 3 Whats model, this research explores how the learning process inspires and motivates students to become English education students, who are designed to become future teachers.  136 English education students were involved in writing a critical reflection after the lecture of Phonetics and Phonology Subject lecture for one semester ended. The findings show that the tutor has the capacity assessed in nine criteria of ideal language teachers, namely having competence, liking English when teaching, motivating, consistently giving feedback, facilitating students to show their abilities, innovating to overcome students' difficulties, appreciating students' work, and being professional in whatever they do. Therefore, further investigation is needed to explore how technology impacts in building of students' critical language awareness.
