Abstract

Published studies on translingual practice in the pedagogical realms have burgeoned in the current literature, generating important insights into how communication has become dynamic and fluid. However, these studies have focused almost exclusively on face-to-face, in-person interactions. As COVID-19, which hit all domains of life (including education) worldwide, has compelled schools to conduct remote learning interaction, it will be more revealing to pursue further how translingual practice is enacted in a virtual classroom. Drawing on the notion of translingual perspective (Canagarajah, 2013), this study investigated how English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers and learners at tertiary education created a translingual space in their interactions by deploying specific negotiation strategies and various multimodal resources in a digital learning platform. Employing a netnography method and interactive model (Miles Huberman, 1994), this study employed virtual observation, surveys, and interviews as the sources of data. The study has revealed the complexity of translingual practices in EFL remote learning interactions that occurred naturally in different parts of teaching-learning activities. The use of verbal, semiotic, and multimodality resources as negotiation strategies for meaning-making plays essential roles in facilitating fluid and dynamic interactions. Pedagogically, the interaction in EFL remote learning has been found to be more multilaterally engaging.

Abstract

This study investigated students’ voices on translingual practices within an EFL classroom by involving 47 students in higher education. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach in which the data were collected through recording of teaching language learning activities, surveys, and interviews. Students were asked several questions about their voices and learning experiences regarding translingual practices in an EFL classroom. The findings showed that students’ voices on translingual practices within an EFL classroom varied, depending on personal circumstances, linguistic background, and learning experiences. Most of the students had a favorable opinion of the translingual practices and said that it was an accommodating strategy that allowed them to actively and confidently take part in the language learning activities. Students benefited from and valued the chances offered by translingual activities within an EFL which were very helpful in acquiring the target language. Moreover, this bridged students and teachers to create dynamic and fluid interactions in English learning.

Abstract

This study examines the use of pantun in political communication during the Jakarta gubernatorial campaign and debate for the 2024-2029 election.

Abstract

With an emphasis on the overall rhetorical tactics used in a political discourse, this qualitative case study investigates translingual practice in the 2024 Jakarta gubernatorial election debates. It specifically examines how the candidates deliberately switched between Indonesian, English, and regional languages to interact with a linguistically varied population and to create compelling political narratives. The study is framed under the frameworks of both translingualism and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). Data sources were taken from the transcribed video recordings. The analysis emphasizes the interplay between multilingual communication, voter perception, and identity construction within Jakarta’s multicultural context. The findings revealed that translingual practice was purposefully used to appeal to a broader range of demographic groups. Candidates can improve their political messaging, negotiate their identities, and promote inclusivity by mixing languages. Translingual practice is a dynamic and flexible tool for political communication in Jakarta's diverse language environment. By showing that translingual practice serves as a strategic performative tool in electoral engagement rather than just being a reflection of Indonesia's linguistic diversity, this study contributes to the body of research on political discourse in multilingual cultures. It makes the case that, especially in globalized metropolitan contexts, language choice in political discourse is vital for influencing public opinion and for navigating democratic processes.

Abstract

Pengelolaan sampah di kawasan perkotaan menuntut pendekatan inovatif agar tidak sekadar berfokus pada pembuangan, tetapi juga dapat menghadirkan nilai tambah melalui pemberdayaan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas pengelolaan sampah berbasis masyarakat melalui diversifikasi produk daur ulang dan pemanfaatan teknologi informasi. Kegiatan ini merupakan bagian dari Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat (PKM) yang dilaksanakan di Bank Sampah Tri Alam Lestari, Jakarta Selatan. Metode yang digunakan adalah Participatory Action Research dan KEPO-In dengan pelatihan partisipatif, praktik, dan pendampingan bagi pengurus serta anggota bank sampah. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kapasitas teknis peserta pelatihan dalam mengolah minyak jelantah menjadi sabun cair, pemahaman proses plastik bekas menjadi biji plastik, dan pemasaran produk daur ulang melalui website e-commerce, sehingga jangkauan promosi produk menjadi lebih luas. Evaluasi menunjukkan peningkatan kesadaran lingkungan. Integrasi konsep green economy dengan digitalisasi terbukti memperkuat pemberdayaan komunitas lokal dan menjadi contoh praktik baik bagi pengelolaan sampah berkelanjutan di wilayah perkotaan lainnya.
