Abstract

This study detailed the impacts of English on products branding from customers’ point of view. It was limited in food, electronics, and garment as the three most traded products in Palembang city as one of the five biggest trading cities in Indonesia. Using a qualitative method with individual and focus group interviews for data collecting techniques, there were 15 participants involved in individual interviews and 30 participants in a focus group interview. Due to physical restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic era, the interviews were conducted online with semi-structured interview questions. The collected data were analysed using thematic analysis to unveil customers’ perception in the terms of popularity, purchasing interest, sales and revenue, business competition, curiosity, vocabulary, a symbol of modernity, and prestige toward products with English branding. It was revealed that the use of English on product branding highly impacted popularity, business competition, buyers’ curiosity, vocabulary, and the symbol of modernity of the users of the object products. Interestingly, electronics products were not affected by the use of English branding on purchasing interest, sales and revenue, and prestige, whereas food and garment products were. The English branding impacted the prestige of the customers only for garment products. Therefore, it is recommendable that certain products make use of English labelling for better recognition and acceptability in public.

Abstract

Teachers are not expected to become only teachers. They must also be able to play their roles as educators. Here all challenges may come their way in establishing their career in which they are obliged to build their students’ character. To present the materials before the class may be quite a challange, but to make noble successful men out of the students is even more challenging. This task may be faced with violence from the students whose motivation of study is on the verge of being corrupted. This paper discusses in particular students’ psychological violence against teachers and how educational psychology comes in rescue to put the feather back on the teachers’ cap and maintain their professionalism.

Abstract

A language requires some certain ways of putting their words together to get some ideas across. These words have some relationship and bond that may escape the attentions of some EFL learners who rely merely upon grammatical skills and vocabulary to build sentences. It is true that grammatical structure connects all the words together to convey the meaning, but there is more to it than meet the eyes when ‘naturalness’ is also our concern. At times, the influence of one’s mother tongue over one’s diction in a foreign language is responsible for the production of unnatural expressions in that foreign language. Once this problem comes to surface, a better look at word pairing-habit in that foreign language should be a priority in which case collocations are the stars on the stage, worthy of our most attention.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study presents the process of writing a novelette entitled Angel Blooms in the Darkness, developed as part of a Research and Development (R&D) project using Plomp's model. The research addresses identified issues including low student awareness of writing skills, insufficient motivation to write, limited knowledge of novelettes as a literary form, and inadequate understanding of novelette structure. The study employed five stages: preliminary investigation, design, realisation/construction, test and evaluation, and implementation. The resulting novelette—7,631 words, 41 pages in A5 format—follows the drama romance genre featuring Generation Z protagonists and applies Freytag's Pyramid narrative structure across its prologue, eleven chapters, and epilogue. Four experts, two in literary writing and two in English, validated the manuscript, yielding an average score of 3.19 out of 4 from literary writing experts and 3.00 out of 4 from English experts. The validated product was subsequently published on Wattpad. Findings confirm that the novelette serves as an effective and accessible medium for developing students' creative writing skills and increasing their motivation to write. Keywords: writing skills, novelette, Generation Z, Freytag's Pyramid, Research and Development
