Abstract

One persistent challenge in English language teaching (ELT) at senior high schools in Karo Regency, Indonesia, is teachers’ limited access to and familiarity with communicative teaching methods. Professional training that provides teachers with communicative methodologies constitutes a viable strategy to tackle this challenge. This study aims to examine the advantages of implementing Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) in English instruction at the senior high school level in Karo Regency. Using a descriptive research design, the study involved English teachers who had previously received training in the CLT method. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews and analyzed descriptively. The findings reveal five major advantages of CLT implementation: (1) increased classroom interaction, (2) reduced student boredom, (3) decreased speaking-related shyness, (4) a more enjoyable and engaging learning atmosphere, and (5) improved speaking fluency. These results indicate that CLT effectively supports teachers in achieving the primary objective of ELT, namely the development of students’ communicative competence. The research points out the need for continuous professional development in communicative methodologies to enhance the quality of English language instruction in regional educational contexts.

Abstract

The growing diversity of translation quality assessment (TQA) models has raised concerns about consistency and reliability, as previous studies show that the same target text may receive different quality judgments when evaluated using different frameworks. This variation exposes the limitations of accuracy-oriented approaches and underscores the need for a more function-sensitive assessment model. In response, the Function-Based TQA model introduces text function as a key quality dimension that extends evaluation beyond linguistic correctness to communicative effectiveness. This study examines the importance of incorporating text function as a central criterion in TQA and explores its perceived role among translation professionals. Adopting a descriptive research design, the study draws on qualitative data from questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with translation lecturers and professional translators actively engaged in TQA. The data were analyzed using an interactive qualitative data analysis model. The findings demonstrate that text function plays a fundamental role in TQA by determining whether the target text fulfills the same communicative purpose as the source text within its target context. To facilitate practical assessment, this study proposes clearly defined quality descriptions and a corresponding scoring system for different levels of functional adequacy. Overall, the study argues that including text function as a distinct quality dimension enhances the consistency, explanatory power, and applicability of TQA models, contributing to a more holistic approach to translation evaluation.
