Abstract

Achieving international recognition has motivated the universities in Indonesia to shift to international programs. An unmistakable and notable initiative is the adoption of English as the Medium of Instruction (EMI), which has elicited both positive and negative responses. This study investigates the obstacles and educational approaches of nursing students when utilising EMI. The study aims to examine students' perceived problems related to language and learning in an EMI context, as well as the techniques they use. The participants of this study are 176 Indonesian students majoring in Nursing. The participants were asked to fill in the survey questionnaires on the challenges they face and the strategies they use in EMI learning. The collected data were analysed using SPSS quantitatively. The major findings are that most students encountered a moderate level of language and learning challenges and sought L2 support strategies in coping with their language and learning challenges. There is less pressure on the students’ side as no native-speaker teacher is involved in establishing the EMI program. This study concludes that the students are ready for the EMI program. The study further suggests the potential of supporting the students through the concurrent support model by Macaro’s language support model.

Abstract

Continuing education is one of the initiatives done to strengthen an institution's human resources. In Indonesia, there are various scholarship programs offered to people to continue their education. However, because many individuals have not been socialized, they are unaware of the scholarships that are accessible. To address this issue, the PkM team of Universitas Pelita Harapan, Universitas Timor, and the Flores Timor Teachers' Association collaborated to organize a socialization of scholarship for further education to the general public, especially in Eastern Indonesia. This event is conducted in the form of an online webinar and is filled out by three speakers from each institution, all of whom have won scholarships. The webinar began with a presentation session in which the presenters discussed their experiences and suggestions, followed by a question and answer session for each speaker, and a closing. According to the assessment results, several participants were excited about pursuing their study overseas. This is evident in the numerous thoughts and queries given by participants about continued study abroad scholarships. Overall, the webinar went well, with participants expressing their satisfaction with the information and experiences offered by the presenters. The assessment form also stated that participants desired an advanced scholarship socialization webinar so that they could learn more about the many sorts of further study scholarships they may apply for.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Authentic nursing terms help nurses, lecturers, and students give accurate and excellent nursing care. However, there is no existing nursing dictionary that has facilitated specific English-Indonesian nursing terms. This study was a pilot study to develop a nursing corpus to establish bank data and build an authentic nursing dictionary through nursing discourses like journals, clinical notes, scoping, systematic reviews, and commentaries The research utilized corpus linguistics as its working methodology by using purposive sampling to collect 651 articles from seven high-impact nursing journals. The open-access journal PDFs were downloaded and converted into TXT. The TXT files were imported to a concordance software package, Antconc, creating a corpus of 3.613.424 tokens. The frequency analysis resulted in 53.105 words, and cluster analysis was performed to find the word and phrase patterns. The finding revealed a 5000-word pioneer of nursing authentic terms. Later, the words will be translated, and sentence examples will be provided in English and Bahasa Indonesia. These nursing terms will be an excellent source for teaching English to nurses, for the International Nursing Program, nurses in practice, staff, and students in nursing care. Keywords: Antconc, Corpus Linguistics, Dictionary, Nursing Dictionary, Nursing                  terms

Abstract

Communication skills in Indonesian and English are crucial aspects for students in the current information era. Indonesian and English languages are taught from elementary school to university as an integral part of the curriculum, with competence evaluated through formative and summative assessments in class. To enhance language proficiency, particularly in verbal and nonverbal communication skills, lecturers from the Indonesian Language and English Language departments of FoN (Faculty of Science) and TC (Teacher's College) will organize workshops and competitions at SMP Kristen Dorea Gunungsindur. These activities include storytelling and competitions focusing on English vocabulary mastery. The main objective is not only to assess language skills but also to train students in both verbal and nonverbal communication aspects, aiming to enhance their resilience and positive competitiveness. It is expected that active participation in these workshops and competitions will further motivate students to sharpen their skills in Indonesian and English languages. Keywords: verbal and nonverbal communication skills, storytelling, vocabulary mastery

Abstract

This study explored the permeating strategies used by the international student in request acts and the common features appearing during the language use as international students in Indonesia, where English is used as a Lingua Franca. The study employed a set of Oral Discourse Completion Test (ODCT) to collect the data from eight international students. Ten ODCTs were composed based on the relative power, social distance, and imposition and were analysed based on the Cross-Cultural Study of Speech Act Realization Patterns (CCSARP). The result was presented in descriptive qualitative where the most frequently used strategies were conventionally indirect – suggestory formulae. Meanwhile, the content analysis indicated that address terms and lengthy reasonings were the most common features appearing in the request acts made. The results offer that interlanguage pragmatic in lingua franca context occurs smoothly as the international students can combine the local culture in their language use.

Abstract

English is not commonly utilized for daily communication in Indonesia due to its status as a foreign language. Consequently, it is common for a significant number of Indonesian students to lack sufficient proficiency in spoken English. The same applies to pupils at SMAK Kasih Anugerah, Bojong Nangka, Tangerang. Furthermore, a significant number of pupils experience apprehension when required to communicate in English. In response to this issue, the English team at UPH Faculty of Nursing has made the decision to conduct an intensive one-month English speaking training program for students at SMAK Kasih Anugerah. The methodology employed is Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), more especially utilizing the storytelling technique. The selection of this method was based on its numerous advantages in fostering the enhancement of students' English speaking abilities and its capacity to cultivate an enjoyable and engaging learning environment. The first three weeks focused on the study and practice of storytelling materials and strategies. During the previous week, a storytelling competition took place, providing students with an opportunity to apply the theoretical knowledge they had acquired. The evaluation results indicated that the majority of students had confidence in their ability to narrate stories in English, as well as exhibited proficient and accurate pronunciation of vocabulary. All students on the evaluation sheet expressed contentment with the training and voiced a desire for a subsequent session. Additionally, they asserted that their proficiency in vocabulary significantly enhanced as a result of reading numerous story texts provided by the facilitators.

Abstract

English Medium Instruction (EMI) has been implemented globally as a strategy for the internationalization of Higher Education Institutions to promote global competence and mobility. However, the concept of English within the EMI context has been scrutinized, as studies reveal that the definition of English in EMI is often contextual. This shift has brought English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) into focus. Given the limited research in Indonesia exploring EMI through the perspectives of ELF and translingual practices, this study examines these concepts within the context of the nursing EMI program. The study draws on a rich dataset, using in-depth interviews with international nursing students to analyze the conceptualization of English, ELF, and translingual practices. Findings reveal a disparity between students preconceived notions and actual practices. Students commonly perceive English in EMI as a native variety shaped by exposure to popular culture such as movies, songs, and social media. However, ELF practices emerge as essential strategies for achieving effective communication, emphasizing adaptability and mutual understanding. Translingual practices manifest in the form of gado-gado Englisha blend of languageswhich is seen as a creative and dynamic linguistic choice but also criticized as being less proficient or standardized. This study highlights the complexities of EMI implementation and advocates for a dynamic and flexible approach to navigating multilingual classroom contexts.
