Abstract

Penguasaan kosa kata merupakan hal yang penting dalam pembelajaran bahasa. Berdasarkan observasi dan wawancara, metode pembelajaran kosakata siswa angkatan 2018 di program studi D3 Bahasa Jepang, Sekolah Vokasi, Unversitas Gadjah Mada, menggunakan metode grammar-translation. Siswa juga diperkenalkan pada pemerolehan kosa kata dalam konteks (Contextual Vocabulary Acquisition/CVA). Untuk membandingkan efektivitas metode-metode tersebut, dilakukan eksperimen yang melibatkan 18 siswa. Siswa dibagi dalam 2 kelompok. Kelompok 1 menggunakan metode grammar-translation konvensional, dan kelompok 2 menggunakan metode yang sama, namun diberi intervensi berupa pembelajaran kosa kata visual menggunakan aplikasi Kahoot!. Siswa diminta menebak kosa kata target dalam bentuk soal kata-per kata di tahap 1, dan menerjemahkan kalimat yang mengandung kosa kata target.  Hasil analisis menunjukkan kelompok pengguna Kahoot! menunjukkan hasil lebih baik. Uniknya, pada kedua kelompok, terdapat siswa yang menunjukkan penerapan CVA. Siswa berhasil menebak kosa kata target dalam tes tahap 2, setelah memahami hal-hal yang berkaitan dengan kosa kata tersebut berdasarkan prior knowledge mereka. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa pembelajaran kosa-kata sebaiknya mengkombinasikan metode-metode yang sudah ada, agar siswa mendapat petunjuk lengkap mulai dari tataran morfologis hingga visual sehingga mereka dapat menginternalisasi suatu kosa kata dengan sempurna.

Abstract

Test item analysis in language learning plays a crucial role in ensuring that the test can be an effective assessment tool in the learning process. It is a quantitative study that aimed to analyze Multiple Choice Questions of reading sections in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) subject for non-English majors to find out the Discrimination Index (DI), Difficulty Index (DIF), and Distractor Efficiency (DE). The participants of this study were first-year students majoring in the civil engineering program at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Researchers collected the primary data from the answer sheets of the reading section. The data analysis was conducted by using Microsoft Excel and uploaded to Anates. It quickly gave the result of all the calculations of DI, DIF, and DE. The findings revealed the DI and DIF of this test were not good because most of the results were poor DI and too easy DIF, which meant that most test items needed modifications and distractors. Most distractors used in this test were not functional and must be removed, changed, or modified.

Abstract

This research focuses on the intercultural competence of Japanese language students majoring in hospitality at three vocational schools in Yogyakarta. To be able to find out students' intercultural competence, a contrastive analysis method is used regarding politeness strategies in the context of greeting guests, asking the guest's name, asking for general information, rejecting the guest's wishes, asking for something from the guest and confirming. There are three things compared in this research, namely, politeness strategies in Indonesian sentences made by students, politeness strategies in Japanese sentences from native Japanese and the suitability of Indonesian translations into Japanese made by students. Brown and Levenson's face-threatening act (FTA) management theory was used as the theoretical basis for this research. The research results show that politeness strategies in the mother tongue do influence how students translate. In general, there are many similarities in strategies between Indonesian and Japanese regarding politeness strategies in the hospitality context. The similarity of these strategies will make it easier for students to achieve intercultural competence. It is just that a lack of linguistic ability still causes pragmalingustic failure and sociopragmatic failure. Furthermore, the difference in strategy is that the use of bald on record in Indonesian produces a bald on record translation in Japanese, which causes sociopragmatic failure.

Abstract

This study endeavored to find out the types of figurative language in a short story entitled “An Angel in Disguise” and the most frequent occurrence of the figurative language type. This short story was chosen because it contained good moral values. The method employed in this study was a descriptive qualitative method. The steps in analyzing data in this study encompassed reading the short story, looking for the phrases or sentences that belonged to figurative language, classifying those phrases or sentences based on the types of figurative language, interpreting the figurative language found, drawing the conclusions. The results showed that there were several types of figurative languages found in the short story. They were personification, metaphor, hyperbole, and simile. Moreover, the most frequent occurrence was hyperbole. The use of exaggeration (hyperbole) in the short story can make the readers excited in reading it and avoid the readers’ boredom. Furthermore, this short story can be used as learning materials for Senior High School students as it can enrich students’ insights about narrative text and how to make a story interesting.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the types of pragmatic failures that occur in beginner-level Japaneselanguage classes. The data was taken from conversation texts created by students in groups over one semester from two different universities. The utterances in the conversation text that were perceived to contain pragmatic failure were categorized and then verified through interviews with nativeJapanese speakers to understand the impressions they felt when hearing such utterances. Verifiedutterances containing pragmatic failure were then categorized into pragmalinguistic failure andsociopragmatic failure. It was discovered that even in simple contexts like self-introductions, therewere many pragmatic failures that had the potential to become Face Threatening Acts (FTA) againstthe positive and negative face of the interlocutor. In the case of basic Japanese students,pragmalinguistic failures are more commonly found than sociopragmatic failures. However, bothpragmalinguistic and sociopragmatic failures tend to be more of a face-threatening act against thepositive face of the interlocutor. The research finding reveals the linguistic characteristics thatthreaten the interlocutor's positive face include using first-person pronouns excessively,discriminatory questions about origin, and misusing specific Japanese words like "anata," "sayonara,""dare," and "kore" during introductions, incorrect responses to information and the absence ofhonorifics.

Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the development of students' critical thinking skills through online English discussion learning activities on the Padlet platform. This study involved 130 respondents from non-English majors. The researchers collected data using an open questionnaire, which was then analyzed based on thematic data analysis. The study's results showed several factors that significantly impacted the improvement of students' critical thinking quality: interesting discussion topics that stimulate active discussion, time limits that encourage focused delivery of ideas, and vocabulary exposure that improves students' ability and fluency in expressing their opinions in English. More deeply, peer opinions in the discussion process are important in sharpening students' critical thinking skills. Various student perspectives enrich knowledge and deepen students' understanding of a discussion topic. The study results showed that several students who initially did not understand the discussion topic were enlightened and inspired to express their opinions after reading their peers' arguments. The language exposure presented in the discussion also strengthened students' ability to express their critical thinking. Overall, discussions through the Padlet platform created a conducive, comfortable and effective atmosphere supporting online English learning.
