Abstract

This study examines the flouting of Grice’s cooperative maxims, specifically Quantity, Relevance, Quality, and Manner in the 2024 presidential debates of Indonesia and the United States. The objective is to identify the types of maxim flouting committed by candidates and to compare pragmatic communication strategies across these two distinct political cultures. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, using transcripts from YouTube videos of the presidential debates in Indonesia and the U.S. Data collection involved observation, transcription, and documentation, while data analysis focused on classifying and presenting instances of maxim flouting. The analysis centers on how candidates strategically flout these maxims to achieve rhetorical goals within formal debate settings. The findings revealed a total of 20 instances of maxim flouting, with the Maxim of Quantity and the Relevance being the most frequently flouted. This flouting serves to control the narrative, divert difficult questions, and strengthen the political image. Donald Trump flouted the most maxims (7 instances), followed by Prabowo Subianto (5), Kamala Harris and Ganjar Pranowo (4 each), while Anies Baswedan did not flout any maxims. The communication style of U.S. candidates tends to be more expansive and confrontational, whereas Indonesian candidates tend to be more structured and concise.

Abstract

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education, particularly in academic writing, is growing rapidly and bringing both positive impacts and ethical challenges. On the one hand, AI can assist students in writing essays and scientific papers, but on the other hand, it has the potential to encourage dependence and unethical practices, especially in thesis writing. This study aims to identify the strategies implemented by lecturers in anticipating the unethical use of AI in students' academic writing. This study uses a quantitative approach involving six lecturers from Bumigora University as respondents. Data were collected through a questionnaire and analysed descriptively. The results show that lecturers implement various strategies, including providing guidance on the ethical use of AI, checking and evaluating students' writing, and providing education on academic integrity. These findings indicate that lecturers play a very important role in guiding the responsible use of AI so that this technology can support the learning process without neglecting ethical values and academic honesty.

Abstract

This community engagement program aims to introduce English vocabulary to kindergarten students by using songs and singing as an enjoyable learning method. This activity was initiated to foster an interactive and enjoyable learning atmosphere for early childhood learners. Singing was selected as the instructional method because songs can increase young EFL learners’ motivation and encourage their active participation in English learning. The singing-based method was implemented through nine stages, namely: (1) identification of the learning theme, (2) song planning, (3) preparation of learning media, (4) opening activity, (5) vocabulary introduction, (6) main singing-based activity, (7) vocabulary reinforcement, (8) simple evaluation, and (9) closing activity. The vocabulary introduction activity employed a singing-based approach using modified lyrics adapted from the song My Finger Family. The lyrics were modified to the learning theme, My Needs, and accompanied by simple gestures to facilitate natural vocabulary acquisition among young learners. The findings of this activity indicated improvements in children’s ability to retain new vocabulary, increased enthusiasm for learning, and higher levels of active participation in group singing activities. The results further suggest that the implementation of the singing-based method is effective in sustaining children's attention and fostering a positive and engaging learning atmosphere. Overall, the activity confirmed that the singing-based method is an effective, engaging, and age-appropriate instructional approach for enhancing children's acquisition of basic English vocabulary. The program is recommended for sustained integration into daily classroom activities in kindergarten settings to support children's English vocabulary development.
