Abstract

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji implementasi ekspresi formulaik dalam kelas Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing (EFL) di SMA Islam YASPIA. Studi ini berfokus pada penilaian keefektifan penggunaan pendekatan leksikal, khususnya melalui instruksi Ms. Lavender, seorang guru bahasa Inggris di sekolah tersebut. Temuan penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa penerapan pendekatan leksikal dalam mengajar ekspresi formulaik relatif tidak rumit bagi guru. Para siswa di kelas menggunakan kelima jenis ekspresi formulaik, dengan frekuensi yang lebih tinggi diamati dalam penggunaan kumpulan leksikal dan kolokasi. Namun, meskipun penggunaan ekspresi formula yang tepat, para siswa menghadapi tantangan dalam menggunakannya selama komunikasi. Kesulitan-kesulitan ini termasuk konstruksi yang menyimpang, penggunaan yang kurang, kesalahan tata bahasa, dan penggunaan ekspresi rumus yang tidak tepat, dengan kesalahan tata bahasa menjadi masalah yang paling umum. Temuan ini sejalan dengan penelitian sebelumnya yang menunjukkan bahwa siswa EFL menghadapi kesulitan saat menggunakan ekspresi formula dalam komunikasi mereka. Hasil penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi yang signifikan terhadap bidang pendidikan EFL di Indonesia, khususnya dalam pengajaran ekspresi formula. Diharapkan temuan ini akan meningkatkan pemahaman penerapan pendekatan leksikal dalam pengajaran ekspresi formulaik dan menawarkan rekomendasi kepada guru bahasa Inggris untuk membantu siswa dalam mengatasi tantangan yang terkait dengan penggunaan ekspresi formulaik dalam komunikasi mereka.

Abstract

In English Language Teaching, reflective practice is a significant pedagogical approach for teacher professional development. This study aims to find out the comprehension of six Professional EFL Teachers in West Java, Indonesia. The research addressed two research questions: (1) how the participants define reflective practice; and (2) how they practice their reflection. The researcher applied a case study using semi-structured interviews, observation and document analysis to collect the data, which then was analyzed thematically. The participants of this study were six professional English teachers who has passed the Teacher professional education program (PPG) and has been teaching more than 10 years. According to the findings, the participants view reflective practice as a method of evaluation and introspection which positively contribute to their professional development. The participants depend heavily on student feedback and peer observation as the primary technique for putting reflective practice into action. It leads to the notion that their comprehension of reflective practice is neither complete nor exhaustive. To improve their understanding of reflective practice, higher education can provide continuing assistance and direction to EFL teachers with mentorship programs, collaborative peer work, and training sessions in which experts in reflective practice guide them toward becoming reflective practitioners.

Abstract

Expert writers are defined as someone that frequently publish their research articles (hereafter RAs) in reputable journals during their established-career period. Publication in highly reputable journals is an essential part of academic life. Therefore, many academicians are competing to produce articles that can be published in international journals. However, the path to achieving this goal is not easy. This study investigates the rhetorical moves in 16 English RAs written by four highly reputable lecturers from soft and hard science throughout their established-career period. The RAs were chosen randomly from highly reputable journals and were analyzed using a framework from Maswana et al. in 2015. The results revealed that there were moves/steps often present in both soft and hard science articles in some sections, i.e., Move a Step 2 Purpose; Move a Step 3 Methods; Move a Step 4 Results; Move a Step 5 Conclusion; Move 1, Step 1 Reference to established knowledge in the field; Move 7, Step 4 Stating specific findings; and Move 9, Step 1 Stating the main results and significance. However, both disciplines also organize their RAs in different ways, specifically in the Methods section. Move 5 Describing experimental procedure was found to be frequently used in hard science articles rather than in soft science. These results can conclude that the cross-disciplines partly project rhetorical moves in RAs. The findings of this study provide a guideline and overview for expert writers in evaluating their writing and for novice writers in increasing their discourse competence.

Abstract

A vocational school is an educational institution that focuses on providing students with practical skills and training for specific careers or professions. Unfortunately, the English lessons given to vocational schools still follow the same English as English in general high school which does not support their needs in their specific major resulted in gaps in English skill for vocational students. The gaps between secondary schools teaching English and vocational schools in terms of resources, curriculum, and even infrastructure. Examining the ESP of computer and network engineering in vocational high school was the aim of this study. As research tools for this study, a questionnaire about needs analysis, analysis of textbooks, and analysis of interviews were used. The findings indicated that in vocational schools, ESP teaching and learning based on the school program is needed by both students and teachers. The poor value of English language proficiency, particularly ESP in vocational schools, is due to a number of factors, including a lack of ESP for computer and network engineering starting from the content, such as textbooks, suitable school facilities, and even the competence of teachers to teach ESP.

Abstract

A plethora of research has shown that genre analysis through move analysis is a practical approach to identify the complexity of writing research articles (RAs). However, little is known about the genre knowledge development that is manifested in abstract discourse patterns. This study aims to determine whether or not there is an influence from the level of education with the development of genre knowledge, especially in the field of writing research abstracts. Using Hyland’s (2000) five-move analysis model, this study analyzed the comparison and identity of abstracts of theses and dissertations in English and Indonesian. From the analysis, it can be seen that there are some differences and similarities in the manifestation of abstract discourse patterns in English and Indonesian final paper abstracts. In terms of genre knowledge, its development could be reflected through the level of study, in this case, from master’s to doctoral degrees. As evident in the dissertation abstracts in both languages, Move 1 (Introduction) evinces richer varieties in step realizations than in master’s theses. The analysis also indicates no crucial differences in genre knowledge development across languages and fields of study. Further comparative research on this particular topic with more subject of data is suggested.

Abstract

Intercultural sensitivity and personality traits constitute eminent and inseparable elements associated with EFL learning. Nevertheless, to the best of the writers’ knowledge, limited investigations in an Indonesian EFL primary school level concerning these two variables were found; therefore, the present study was intended to scrutinize the Indonesian EFL primary school students’ intercultural sensitivity and personality traits. 96 students from the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades of one primary school in Bandung were involved. An embedded design of a mixed-method was employed. The data were garnered using 4-Likert scale questionnaires gauging the students’ intercultural sensitivity and their personality traits focusing on extroversion, followed by some open-ended questions. The findings revealed that students’ intercultural sensitivity was considered good (the mean of 80.06 and standard deviation of 8.50), and most students tended to be extroverted (the mean of 72.62 and the standard deviation of 9.89). The students’ intercultural sensitivity was found to be significantly related to their extroversion at a 99% level of confidence (.000 .01). Finally, the findings along with the previous studies explicating the intercultural sensitivity and personality traits advocate some pedagogical implications for facilitating students’ English learning.

Abstract

Producing research articles requires clearly, logically, rationally, and empirically substantiating complicated ideas. Regarding that, many professors struggle to have their articles published in highly regarded publications and require references; for instance, the rhetorical move pattern. Many studies have analyzed the rhetorical structure of articles, but few have investigated the rhetorical move of the research articles produced by lecturers by specifically comparing their publications in high-impact versus low-impact Scopus-indexed journals. Using a descriptive-comparative qualitative design, this study seeks to investigate the moves of low-impact and high-impact articles of the two social humanities lecturers of a state university in Indonesia. Eight articles were analyzed through the move framework proposed by Maswana (2015). The results revealed that the rhetorical moves from each section were organized with significant conformities and minor non-conformities.Especially, the authorsemphasized the goals, procedures, and outcomes of the publications in the abstract section. Furthermore, the writers provided references to the existing literature and the goal of the research to assist the reader in understanding the theory applied in the papers. On the other hand, deviations from the norm are displayed in the methodology section due to variations in how the study was conducted, particularly the data processing phase. The authors’ attention to conveying the research’s specific findings and their significance was in the findings and discussion section. The results of this study can be used as a reference for Indonesian researchers who are striving to publish papers in international journals toward a more visible and impactful publication.

Abstract

Although there have been many studies that discuss meaning, both in Indonesian and in Minangkabau, no research has been found that examines the lexical meaning and cultural meaning of Minangnese archaic words in pasambahan. This is important to study because pasambahan contains advice, manners, cultural values, and educational values that have existed for a long time and must be passed down. Therefore, there is a need for research that explores the lexical meaning and meaning of the cultural context contained in archaized words in pasambahan. This research uses a qualitative design. The source of data comes from a study entitled Identification of Archaic Words in the Book of the Philosophy of Penghulu Clothing Jo Pidato Aluo Pasambahan of Minangkabau Custom. The data was tested in an interview with the author of the book. The results show that of the 34 archaic words studied, 26 words have lexical meaning and cultural meaning, and 8 words only have lexical meaning. The cultural meaning contains advice to tribal leaders, advice for daily life, a description of Minangkabau nature, a description of Minangkabau traditional houses, and manners, advice on religion, and advice on decision-making.

Abstract

This study discusses the vitality of the Tae’ language in Palopo city, South Sulawesi. Vitality of Tae’ language can be seen both from its use as a language of daily communication, the number of speakers, documentation, government policies  related  to  the language, and the inclusion of the language in the school curriculum. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method, in  which  interviews  and  observations  were employed. The subjects interviewed were government officials in Palopo city, as well as the people of Palopo. Findings reveal that the vitality of the Tae language in Palopo is vulnerable to extinction. This is characterized by two main indicators: i) very low use of Tae’ language even in the family domain which affects low language transmission as well ;) and the absence of  govermental  policies  in  preserving  and  maintaining  Tae’  language  as  the  identity  of  the Palopo people and the Indonesian.Â
