Abstract

Medical terminology, previously reserved for professionals, has become increasingly prevalent in everyday discourse, particulary following the COVID-19 pandemic. The emergence of these terms is not spontaneous; rather, they are meticulously crafted by experts within their respective fields. This research examines the formation of Indonesian medical terms, with a specific focus on affixation. The purpose of this research is to find out the affixation process used in Indonesian medical terms. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with the data source of medical terms found on the Halodoc platform. The choice of Halodoc is aligned with the rising popularity of health applications during the pandemic. The result shows that from 1492 medical terms data, 202 words (13.5%) are formed through affixation process. There are foreign language affixation processes (prefixes and suffixes) and Indonesian language affixation processes (prefixes, suffixes, confixes). Foreign language affixation shapes the term to be more complex, while the use of Indonesian affixation only changes the word class. The results of this study are also expected to represent the characteristics of the Indonesian language in forming words, especially medical terms.

Abstract

Teachers, as professional educators, are supposed to keep improving their ability in the pedagogical field. The teacher development program is one of the best ways for teachers to maintain and enhance their professionalism. Motivation has become an issue that is considered crucial to teachers' involvement in teacher development programs (TPD). However, investigating novice and experienced EFL teachers' motivation in pursuing their master's degree as a form of development activity is underexplored. This research article aims to investigate novice and experienced English teachers' voices regarding their motivation in pursuing a master's degree at a postgraduate program in one of the state universities in Bandung and the comparison between the teachers in regard to their motivation. This study employed a qualitative research approach guided by a case study design with 2 novice English teachers and 3 experienced English teachers who are currently studying at a postgraduate program as the respondents. The instrument used in this study was an interview with 9 questions adapted from a conceptual framework proposed by Alghamdi (2020). The findings revealed that the EFL teachers have several types of factors in their motivation to pursue their higher education. The factors are primarily grouped into incentive and reward factors, school factors, CPD program factors, and within-teacher factors. In comparison, all respondents have quite similar motivations with no significant difference. However, one difference was found in the reward factor in which the role of the family is more motivating in novice teachers than inexperienced teachers.
