Abstract

Technology expands students' opportunities for authentic interaction with native speakers and other language learners at various levels, both inside and outside of the classroom. The purpose of this research is to examine an improvement in students' speaking skills in terms of fluency, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and accuracy by using English YouTube videos, as well as the impact on students' speaking skills with a civil and non civil servant's family background in rural school. In this study, a quantitative method with a true experimental design was used, and a total of N=90 students participated, with N=50 students chosen using purposive sampling from two different classes to serve as samples. The instrument for the study included tests, a pre-test, and a post-test. The data was then analysed statistically to determine the results of the given pre-test and post-test. The average score increased after the post-test in terms of receiving results in terms of improving students' English speaking. Accuracy turned out to be one of the most important aspects of speaking that improved markedly. It means that students learned from native speakers through English YouTube videos, and their accuracy has enormously improved as a result. Meanwhile, students from civil servant families scored 95 on the post-test, while students from non-civil servant families scored 92.5. It was discovered that there is only a minor difference in improvement between civil and non-civil servant students' backgrounds. Teachers should consider using authentic English YouTube videos in the classroom to assist children of their English speaking skills.

Abstract

The current study examined students perspectives on the use of one of the regional learning management systems (LMS), E-Belajar (hereafter EB), at two Islamic boarding schools in Aceh, Indonesia. Fifty EFL Islamic boarding school students agreed to participate in this study. This study used a mixed method design, combining surveys and interviews. The data from the questionnaire was analysed quantitatively. Meanwhile, thematic analysis was performed on the interview data. The results revealed both good and negative attitudes of EB in ELT. Positive replies indicate that EB improved English comprehension and promoted autonomous learning, assisted students in completing English tasks on time by using the alert feature as a reminder, developed enjoyable and engaging learning activities using videos and online games, and encouraged students confidence in expressing ideas. However, negative voices highlighted the teachers failure to advise students on how to use EB properly, resulting in incorrect task submission. Students also preferred in person learning, and students had trouble communicating effectively. Students further pointed out that EB did not enhance listening skill, reading skill, speaking skill, writing skill, or grammar understanding significantly; only few students believed that EB helped promote English language skills, indicating that further efforts through EB was required. Students were also unable to access certain EB services, such as e-counselling and e-monitoring. Furthermore, dormitories have limited access to the internet. These circumstances became another drawback for students.

Abstract

Ruangguru, one of Indonesia's prepaid applications, has facilitated autonomous learning for students. Ruangguru (henceforth RG) is a mobile application enhances online learning organizations by aligning it with Indonesia's curriculum. RG offered students a platform with distinctive characteristics to support online study in several subjects. The present study examines students' viewpoints on using Ruangguru, one of Indonesia's online learning prepaid platforms, and ascertains its advantages and disadvantages. The current study employed a qualitative methodology, utilizing interviews to collect data. The participants comprised senior high school students from several cities in Indonesia who were enrolled in regular classes, subscribed to RG, and willingly provided their consent by signing a consent form. The findings revealed that RG possesses several benefits, including the ability to set one's own pace, user-friendliness, independent learning, and a flexible platform. It allowed pupils to learn without any limitations on time or location. However, the RG was unable to substitute regular classes with the presence of teachers, the decrease of social interactions in learning, the significant disparity between the wealthy and the impoverished, and the diminishing role of teachers. Ruangguru's primary focus is students' academic achievement. Yet, it is crucial to resolve other notable aspects, such as inadequate feedback, teacher guidance, and lack of peer interaction. As a further recommendation, to evaluate the effectiveness of the RG, it is also recommended that students' achievement and the impact of using RG in the EFL classroom be analyzed and cross-referenced.

Abstract

This research aims to figure out the types of personification used in one of the famous albums namely Michael Jackson's Thriller and Invincible. The sources of data were 19 songs taken from Thriller and Invincible albums by Michael Jackson and the lyrics of the songs. The research design used was descriptive qualitative research with documentation analysis as the technique of data collection. The result showed that there were 65 personification expressions found in the albums. Those 65 personifications were categorized into four types of personification as proposed by Dorst et al. (2011) namely: conventionalized personification (33 expressions), novel personification (20 expressions), default personification (12 expressions), and personification-with-metonymy (0 expressions). The idea of conventionalized personification presents in the lyrics is to dig out the beauty and tranquility of nature to life. It also might address giving an object or animal-human characteristics to create interesting imagery to the ELT Students. Also, these songs are assumed as one of the various English materials in language teaching in the future since it has no sarcasm and motivating contexts throughout the lyrics themselves.

Abstract

Translation strategies have been the subject of extensive investigation. Most people believe that translators use specific strategies and that basic translation strategies are sometimes insufficient. As a result, numerous scholars have investigated and analyzed various translation techniques from various perspectives. This study determined the translation strategies in the novel of Negeri 5 Menara and its English Version, The Land of Five Towers using Baker's (2011) framework. This study was conducted using a descriptive qualitative technique to determine the translation strategies in Negeri 5 Menara and its English version, The Land of Five Towers. There were 130 data points in all. According to the findings, 11% about the use of the more general word, 14 % in the use of the more neutral or expensive word, 8% of cultural substitution, 5% of loan words, 4% of omission, paraphrase with related terms accounted for 57% of all translation tactics, while paraphrasing with unrelated words accounted for 2%, and there was no data on illustration. There were 21 uncategorized data points for every given strategy. It was predicted that in the future, a translator, who is also a pre-service teacher, should widen his or her translation methodologies in order to combat non-equivalence translation.

Abstract

Slang has received much attention in research on analysis in recent years. Many studies found that slang dominated media, film, and novels. Similarly, studies on English slang received higher interest than other languages. The present study, in contrast, analyzes the slang used by Indonesian Generation Z in WhatsApp groups. The research is a qualitative study, with the researcher's primary focus in data collection being content analysis. Based on Allan and Burridge's (2006) theory, the researcher discovered 50 slang classified into seven functions: starting a relaxed conversation (27 occurrences), expressing an impression (12 occurrences), creating an intimate atmosphere (5 occurrences), addressing (3 occurrences), abusing others (3 occurrences), humiliating (0 occurrences), and expressing intimacy (0 occurrences). Furthermore, those are divided into five types: fresh and creative (7 occurrences), flippant (9 occurrences), imitative (12 occurrences), acronym (14 occurrences), and clipping (14 occurrences) (8 occurrences). In conclusion, Generation Z has used this slang to increase the intimacy of their daily WhatsApp conversations.

Abstract

In this study, we introduce the Student Contribution Index (SCI) to measure these contributions. The purpose of this quantitative study is to test the validity of SCI as a measure of task identifiability and to determine the student satisfaction with SCI-based assessments. To collect the data, 52 students were split into high and low identifiability conditions. Both groups worked on a project and completed SCI once (LI group) and twice (HI group). We measured the SCI variability using an F-test at the significance level of 0.05. Furthermore, a group project of 113 students was assessed using SCI. Students completed an evaluation form to measure procedural fairness, distributive fairness, and satisfaction. We then analyzed the correlations between these variables using Pearson's Correlation. The results show that the variability in SCI of the HI group was negligible (SD = 0), indicating that all students contributed equally to the project. Meanwhile, a variability was observed in the LI condition (SD = 0.08), suggesting that SCI was a valid measurement. Additionally, students were generally satisfied with the assessment (M = 4.40), and a significant correlation was observed between the variables. This study presents a novel method for assigning grades to group members in group projects, taking into account each member’s individual contribution. As a result, fairness in grading can be achieved, and educators can discourage social loafing and free-reading behavior.

Abstract

The goal of this study was to look into parents' attitudes toward encouraging English-Indonesian bilingualism in their children, as well as their support strategies for doing so. This study used a mixed-method approach to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data was collected using a questionnaire, while the qualitative data was collected during the interviews using open-ended questions. Twenty mothers who raise bilingual (English-Indonesian) children took part in the study. The researcher collected data using a questionnaire and an interview. The majority of parents prefer English-Indonesian bilingualism for their children, according to the findings of this study. By being actively involved in their children's language development, parents always make efforts to maintain their children's bilingual skills. The support systems that parents provide for their children, as well as the degree of support provided in English language learning, appear to differ. To make the learning process effective and successful, parents focus on their children's interests while developing Indonesian-English skills for them.

Abstract

There are still a number of less skilled readers in higher degree education where academic texts are staple needs (Hellekjaer, 2009). This study investigated a technique to help students increase their reading ability in TOEFL reading section. A technique named Notetaking technique was implemented during two cycles of classroom action research. There were 3 meetings for each cycle. The participants were 17 Economics students who are taking TOEFL Preparation course at Universitas Syiah Kuala, Aceh, Indonesia. The result from cycle one showed no increase since the average only incline to 38.58. Then in cycle 2, there was a significant increase reaching 45.11 (which is the minimum TOEFL standard for the university). It can be deduced that this technique might not be appropriate for large classes as it demands individual assistance. Besides, a good skill of organizing information is fundamental in this strategy to maximize the students’ effort in answering the TOEFL questions during the test.
