Abstract

Making improvements of the speech feature is possible to do because pronunciation is teachable. Some experts in pronunciation teaching have suggested more comprehensive and contemporary teaching methods and techniques. In narrower context to English Study Program some seemingly cases are found in depicting the condition of how the last semester students who attend thesis seminar are tend to have difficulty in their Pronunciation. Many of them are still struggling in articulating the correct English pronunciation. The problematic speech features are targeted to the segmental part, such as the accuracy of vowel sounds production. For this particular research, the researchers want to investigate the similar problematic features of pronunciation of the second semester students of English Study Program of Universitas Brawijaya and later will try to implement some teaching pronunciation techniques to modify their pronunciation production. For this particular research employs a qualitative research design. The data were analysed into narrative description, interpretation and textual. The participants were asked to read aloud the given 14 minimal pair words list. The recorded data were saved as wave files (.wav) to analyze them by using PRAAT to visual display of the students’ First Formant (F1) and Second Formant (F2). Then, these visual displays were compared to those of native speakers in PRAAT window. The result of this research reveals that due to the lack of how to disambiguate the correct pronunciation of vowel sounds within the given words the participant tend to produce inaccurate pronunciation. Which are reflected by the result of the spectrum score range: F1 and F2. Some proposed techniques of teaching segmental were drilling, teaching minimal pairs, chanting with jazz chant and rhyming with tongue twisters, to modify learners segmental features. As the suggestion all targeted parties (students, Lectures and Authority) should be willing to do what are necessary to maintain the success of the teaching and learning pronunciation in Study program of English.Key words: student’ spoken feature, segment

Abstract

The fact shows that language education closely related to literacy education results in the ability to read and write at a designated level of proficiency. Literacy is also defined as a technical capability to decode or reproduce written or printed signs, symbols, or letters combined into words. However, it has become increasingly common to refer to different forms of literacy, such as computer, mathematical, or graphic literacy. Considering the common techniques used in language teaching, they may contribute to the improvement of the students’ ability in both the basic literacy and functional literacy (i.e. some skill in reading and writing; and the ability to read, write, and calculate figures well enough to carry out activities that many people consider necessary to function in society, respectively). Here, we can notify that functional literacy refers to individual ability in surviving life which also serves as reflection of individual multiple intelligences covering several areas that can be developed over a lifetime. This paper invites the reader to recall several techniques in teaching languages which can also function as the techniques of improving literacy-both basic and functional literacy. In language teaching, the use of, for example, puzzles and games, classification and categorization will lead to logical competence; chart and grids, videos, and drawing will lead to visual/spatial intelligence; hands-on activities and pantomime will lead to body/kinesthetic intelligence; singing and jazz chants will lead to musical/rhythmic intelligence; pair-work and group problem solving will lead to interpersonal intelligence; journal keeping will lead to intrapersonal intelligence; and note-taking, story telling and debates will lead to verbal/linguistic intelligence.

Abstract

This research is aimed to describe the syntactic and lexical variations of Madurese language based on different ages and regions in Madura. This is due to the changing phenomena of language especially Madurese due to socioeconomic and technological development. Participants of this study were youths and old groups from different regions. Data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively in accordance to the research problems. It was found out that syntactically, Madurese language has similar basic word order structure as Indonesian language. The possessive structure is determined by the last sound of the word, either vocal or consonant. Other structures, noun phrase, prepositions, adjective clause, nonverbal clause, and existential clause are much similar to that of Indonesian language. No differences were found in terms of syntactic variations among different ages and regions in Madura. In terms of lexical, some variations do occur as attributed to the socio-cultural background of each speaker. The level of politeness indicates that social level influences the choice of lexical terms used by speakers based on different ages and regions in Madura.

Abstract

Sejak tahun 2013, Pemerintah Desa Banyuurip bersama dengan Kelompok Pelestari Mangrove dan Lingkungan Banyuurip mendirikan Kawasan Ekowisata dan Konservasi Mangrove yang dikenal dengan nama Banyuurip Mangrove Center (BMC). Selain sebagai tempat pembibitan dan pelestarian mangrove, kawasan ekowisata yang mulai dibuka pada tahun 2015 ini memiliki berbagai jenis mangrove dengan jenis yang mendominasi adalah Avicennia sp. dan Rhizophora. Saat buah mangrove melimpah, penduduk sekitar BMC kadang memanfaatkannya sebagai olahan seperti sirup dan jenang untuk dikonsumsi sendiri. Berangkat dari permasalahan ini, Program Doktor Mengabdi Universitas Brawijaya Tahun 2018 dilakukan untuk membantu para pengelola ekowisata mangrove dalam memanfaatkan dan mengelola produk-produk mangrove untuk mengembangkan ekowisata mangrove yang telah berjalan. Kegiatan yang dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut adalah dengan mengadakan pelatihan pengolahan produk mangrove oleh praktisi dari Lamongan yang telah sukses mengolah kopi mangrove serta tim dari KeSEMaT, Semarang yang telah memiliki banyak desa binaan dengan berbagai macam produk seperti stik mangrove, krupuk mangrove, cendol mangrove serta batik mangrove. Dengan adanya pemanfaatan dan pengelolaan produk mangrove, maka BMC diharapkan dapat menjadi satu paket tempat wisata yang lengkap, yakni wisata alam, wisata pendidikan, dan juga wisata ekonomi.Kata kunci: BMC, Mangrove Jawa Timur, Produk Mangrove

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the Dayak Ngaju students’ attitudes towards their mother tongue, the Ngaju language, and the factors affecting the attitudes. Following Fasold (1984) and Jendra (2012), a qualitative  analysis of  interviews with selected subjects was conducted after  the questionnaires were distributed to the  respondents. The questionnaire respondents were 30 college students of Dayak Ngaju ethnicity, 9 of which were interviewed to corroborate their answers to the questionnaire. The results revealthe students’ positive attitudes towards the Ngaju language. The students’ positive attitudes were influenced by two factors: (a) the language's power and prestige, and (b) the language’s internal system. The respondents considered the Ngaju language as an important part of their community because the language reflects the Dayak Ngaju people’s cultural identity despite the challenges the speakers of the language might have when communicating in their mother tongue. Thus, language preservation is needed.
