Abstract

English grammar has a pivotal position in language learning. It is also considered the basis of a series of language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing). However, although previous studies focused on teaching English grammar either from a traditional or functional view, where English as L1 and L2 across various educational levels, scarce studies have emphasized teaching English Grammar in the Indonesian EFL context, particularly in Junior High School. Hence, this study aimed at filling such a void, namely teaching English grammar in an Indonesian junior high school. In an attempt for collecting the data, this study interviewed a participant in one of the junior high schools in Tasikmalaya, West Java, Indonesia. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun Clarke, 2006). The findings of this study revealed that the teacher use focus on forms and focus on form in teaching English grammar. Those focus on forms involve (1) Deductive English Teaching Grammar, (2) Score-Oriented English Language Learning Activities, and (3) Accuracy-Oriented English Language Learning Activities. Another approach is focus on form include (1) Task-Based Sentence Making and (2) Contextual Teaching of English Grammar. By knowing these teaching techniques, the teachers are expected to be able to implement those teaching techniques of teaching English grammar to junior high school students more effectively.

Abstract

The employment of Target Language (hereafter, TL) in English language teaching practices has burgeoned significantly. One of the reasons generating such an issue is the notion of providing students (non-native English students) sufficient exposures of English. Conversely, little is known about how English as the TL is deployed as a medium of instruction and communication among teachers and students, notably in the Indonesian junior high school remains under-researched. Hence, this study aimed at scrutinizing such an investigative issue. The participant was a female English teacher applying English as a medium of communication and instruction in the classroom learning practices. The data were garnered through non-participant observations and analyzed thematically (Braun Clarke, 2006). The findings outlined that utilizing the target language in pre- and post- activities and commanding the student by using the target language become an obvious picture of how the TL is used as a medium of instruction and communication among teachers and students. Pedagogically speaking, encouraging students to communicate in the TL (English) enables them to generate their willingness to communicate in the TL and language awareness of the significance of TL in the classroom learning practices.

Abstract

The advancement of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) has significantly affected English language teaching, such as the utilization of miscellaneous applications, social media and other digital platforms facilitating the learners to invigorate their language skills, notably L2/FL writing context. However, insufficient attention has been addressed to the contributions of employing storybird to the learners’ narrative writing activities. To fill this void, this study aimed at delineating the contributions of employing storybird to the Indonesian EFL learners’ narrative writing activities. Three Indonesian junior high school learners participated as research participants. The data were gathered through semi-structured interview and analyzed with Thematic Analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006). The findings designated that storybird (1) generated ideas for writing a story (2) facilitated to construct generic structure of English narrative texts (3) considered lexicogrammatical features of English narrative texts (4) produced English narrative texts joyfully and (5) wrote English narrative texts actively. Given these facts, storybird enables the learners to think creatively, provides them enjoyable learning experiences, brings their abstract thoughts to real life and guide them to communicate and collaborate effectively.

Abstract

Recently, multimodality has attracted the attention of researchers, notably in the educational milieu. However, only a few studies reported on the way students perceived the use of Genre-Based Multimodal Texts Analysis (GBMTA) for teaching multimodality. After addressing the gap, this study focuses on students’ perceptions on the use of GBMTA in multimodality teaching in higher education. Sixty-nine students were involved in the study. Each of the students produced one journal through three meetings. The journals were then collected for document analysis and thematic analysis (Braun Clarke, 2006). The findings reveal that the students perceived GBMTA as facilitating them in the building of multimodal discourse analysis, challenges and solutions of comprehending multimodal teaching materials, planning better learning strategies in the future, engagement on multimodal learning issues, and multimodal text analysis practices. This study contributes to multimodality teaching or multimodal discourse analysis within genre-based learning.

Abstract

Possessing a well-established English communicative competence (hereafter, ECC) is highly demanding since it can contribute to the production of fluent, accurate, and intelligible communication. Unfortunately, insufficient attention has been addressed to delve into Pangandaran tour guides' English communicative competence. This study aims to delineate the ECC of Pangandaran tour guides in Pangandaran, Indonesia. The data were collected through a focus group discussion consisting of six participants from miscellaneous institutions and were analyzed through Thematic Analysis (Braun and Clarke, 2006). The findings demonstrated that Pangandaran tour guides' ECC were outlined in five descriptions, namely (1) committing recursive grammatical errors while speaking in English, (2) designating insufficient spoken English vocabulary, (3) possessing vast and in-depth prior knowledge about Pangandaran, (4) diagnosing problems and proposing their various solutions and (5) showcasing visionary thoughts towards tourism destination development. Given these facts, ECC enables the tour guides to create sustainable job and business opportunities for themselves, the local people, and the government.Keywords: Communicative competence; English; Indonesian tourism; Pangandaran tour guides

Abstract

Portfolio-based Assessment (hereafter, PBA) plays an indispensable role in language assessment. PBA represents the development of the students’ learning process outcomes, trains autonomous learning, and stimulates metacognitive awareness. Conversely, a few investigative attempts, addressed the students’ perceptions of PBA in the Indonesian EFL Context. Therefore, this study aimed to decipher the perceptions of EFL students in Indonesia on PBA use in the English subject. Empirically speaking, two female students were involved as the participants in this study. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and analyzed with Thematic Analysis (TA) (Braun & Clarke, 2006). The findings revealed that students articulated their perceptions in three major themes, namely developing self-monitoring from the students’ learning processes, generating discipline, responsible and autonomous language learning attitudes, and mitigating perceptual mismatches among teachers and students. Pedagogically speaking, this study indicates that PBA employment can provide opportunities for students to monitor their learning progress, and enhance their self-confidence and learning motivation.

Abstract

English plays an indispensable role in fostering academic, personal, and professional quality. In Indonesia, introducing English to students from elementary, secondary, and tertiary levels of education is highly demanding. Unfortunately, probing the non-major English student's learning experiences remains under-researched. Therefore, this study is aimed at scrutinising the English language learning experience of a non-English major college student in Indonesia. John (pseudonym), a talented and outstanding student from the non-English major of a state university in Tasikmalaya, West Java, was recruited as the investigative participant. The data were garnered through semi-structured interviews and analysed using Narrative Analysis (NA) (Labov & Waletsky, 1967). The findings reveal that supporting environment, learning motivation, and styles have become the most influential aspects for him to learn English. With this in mind, encouraging John to acquire Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills (BICS) and Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency (CALP) enables him to communicate in English successfully. Further, this study suggests that English is not only taught for classroom-oriented activities but also for real-life communicative purposes.  Keywords: Language Learning Experience; Narrative Inquiry; Non-major English Student

Abstract

This study scientometrically mapped the investigative trends in English for accounting (EA) research articles. The corpus was 181 research articles in EA from 1981 to 2021. They were retrieved from metadata dimensions of various leading journals and analyzed with automated bibliometric analysis. The findings revealed that the investigative themes in EA remain burgeoning for 41 years. The accounting history journal indicated the greatest impact on EA research. The analyzed journals reported a large impact correlating to their development. The most productive author in the EA research was Jones. The typical words frequently emerging in the analyzed research articles were accounting, research, and English. The investigative and developing topics related to EA were relatively dynamic. This study suggests that the scientometric investigative perspective offers a systematic, diachronic, and quantitative outline of English for accounting research by considering its meta-disciplinary knowledge and evolving trends over the years.

Abstract

In this digital era, translation has undergone a radical paradigmatic shift from traditional to automated practices in terms of technological, pedagogical, empirical and economic perspectives, such as the emergence of Machine Translation (MT). Unfortunately, scrutiny accentuating the evaluation of GT output in the English-Indonesian translation setting remains under-researched. Hence, this study aimed at poring over how the English-Indonesian translation in a selected chapter of Ferreira’s critical theory was represented from the GT output. The corpus of this study was a selected chapter of a book entitled International Relations Theory edited by Stephen McGlinchey, Rosie Walters and Christian Scheinpflug (McGlinchey, et. al., 2017), namely chapter 6 in part 1 Critical Theory (Marcos Farias Ferreira) (Ferreira, 2017). The corpus was collected through document analysis and analyzed with Baker’s translation equivalence framework (Baker, 2018) and thematic analysis (TA) (Braun & Clarke, 2006). The findings unveiled that GT output represented English-Indonesian translation in five prominent themes, viz. inappropriate word level equivalence, grammatical equivalence and lexical cohesion in the English-Indonesian translated text, decontextualized pragmatic equivalence in Indonesian as the target language, syntactically disordered English-Indonesian translated words, literally translated Indonesian as the target language, and accepted equivalence of English-Indonesian translation. Pedagogically, this study suggests that a combination strategy of GT-based translation and human translation can be a breakthrough to reach the translation quality, namely accuracy, naturalness and readability.
