Abstract

The efforts and conservation actions are needed to obtain a clean water for consumption. One of such efforts is interpreting the traditions of indigenous peoples, which are directly related to the concept of nature conservation. This study aims to identify and describe the meaning and geographical aspects of the barong wae ritual practice of the Manggarai indigenous people in the context of preserving the water environment. This research was a qualitative descriptive study with an ethnographic approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Results show that local wisdom in the form of the barong wae ritual contains knowledge, ethics, values, and norms that are directly related to the efforts to protect the water environment. This is reflected in the meaning of the symbols, the selection of locations, and the involvement of indigenous peoples as a form and means of human interaction with the environment, especially the water environment. In conclusion, local cultural values, ethics, moral standards, and norms embodied in symbols, locations, and community involvement in the implementation of barong wae cultural rites must be preserved for the survival and sustainability of the natural environment, especially the water environment, for the next generation.

Abstract

A worldwide discussion about the practice of assessment for learning (AfL) in online classes during the pandemic COVID-19 is scarce. The current research can have a significant impact on teaching and learning practices, and contribute to the development of evidence-based policies and practices that support student success. Thus, the current study aimed at exploring English teachers’ AfL practice in online classes. This study belonged to a basic qualitative approach and recruited four English foreign language or EFL teachers from the secondary school level. Observation and semi-structured interviews using an interview guide were conducted to gain the data. To ensure the trustworthiness of the data, other documents were collected. Subsequently, utilizing the spiral strategy, the gained data were analyzed. The results revealed that the implementation of AfL deviated from the course. Insufficient knowledge, curriculum, internet accessibility, and technological acceptance are pivotal causes of such deviation. Thus, teachers might not diagnose students’ current learning level and decide on a further teaching action. Further studies on other educational levels are demanded to explore the practice of AfL.

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to provide a brief report on how online learning is seen in the context of new normal in Indonesia. By reviewing some journal articles, news reports along with some reflective experiences from students, parents, and teachers were the basis of the report in question. As such, the results and discussion were concerned with the pro and contra regarding its implementation. In this regard, the argumentations were purely from observation, news, and digital discussion with parents, students, and colleagues supported by some findings of previous research studies. Trauma, health, and practicality were the concern of the pro while facilities, personal involvement, and intimacy were the main considerations of the contra-side. Despite a growing number of research studies, online or face to face, of greater importance are teacher’s presence, cognition presence, and social presence during the process.

Abstract

This study aims at revealing teacher perceptions and the impact of online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research method used was survey research with a questionnaire as a data collection instrument. The results showed that teachers had a negative perception of online learning. This is evidenced by 92.3% of respondents' answers who consider online learning to be ineffective and only 7.7% of respondents' answers gave positive responses. This condition is mostly caused by the lack of face-to-face interaction between students and teachers, the network and the availability of inadequate online learning facilities and the lack of parental attention to the child's learning process. This research is useful for improving teacher learning strategies, the attention of parents and all parties directly involved in the education process of students.

Abstract

Textbooks play a vital role in language instruction. The study aims to examine the three metafunctions of language based on the Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory. As such, a descriptive qualitative approach along with content analysis is employed to examine dialogues that were selected conveniently from two elementary EFL textbooks. The findings indicate that the relational process is the most frequent process type indicating the ideational function of the two textbooks. For the sake of interpersonal function, declarative sentences are mostly utilized. Meanwhile, the textual function is mostly reflected by the T (Thing) and DT (Deictic + Thing) nominal group pattern. These findings have pedagogical implications for teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL), particularly for elementary school students; providing simple language patterns that help students build a foundational vocabulary and understanding of grammar for proficient communication. The theoretical implication of the findings is the importance of scaffolded learning that helps learners grasp basic linguistic concepts before moving on to more complex and dynamic language use
