Abstract

This study critically analyzes the recent trend of Englishing shop names in Aceh province. Borrowing Bhabha’s postcolonial theory, this study attempted to uncover the shop owners’ perceptions of privileging English and marginalizing local languages, even though their customers are mostly local. Data collection was by taking pictures and interviewing 20 owners of the shops, four females and 16 males. Results show that the 120 shop names in Banda Aceh and surrounding it are in English, modified English and Indonesian ordering, hybridized English and Indonesian ordering, hybridized English Acehnese language and English, English and English ordering, and mixed owner’s names and English ordering. They voluntarily mimicked the Western culture by using English names because they believe that English is marketable, modern, practical, flexible, familiar, and short for shop branding, while the local language looks not modern, unpractical, and weird. In conclusion, most shop owners in the two districts in Aceh negotiate the Western hegemony for the economic benefits.

Abstract

Timely positive feedback to students pursuing a Ph.D. program motivates completion.  Drawing upon Skinner's Reinforcement theory and Lakoff and Johnson's Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT), this study aimed at uncovering metaphors employed in feedback practices by exploring the linguistic expressions of supervisors and peers, which encouraged students to complete their Ph.D. studies in Australia. The methodology employed the use of a semi-structured interview to delve into the lived experiences of two Indonesian Ph.D. students (currently EFL lecturers) during their studies in Australia. The results that the use of positive expressions from supervisors and peers strongly motivated the students to complete their Ph.D. programs. The four types of expressions used served to praise, give hope, give direction as feedback to support completion, and reminders to keep the student on track. The following expressions were commonly used to motivate completion: "Do not worry, mate, you will get there," and "Wow, it's great work! I understand it is not easy to write academically in such good English, but you did." These expressions metaphorically imply that:  "PhD study is a journey," and "Work speaks louder than words." These findings suggest that positive verbal feedback from supervisors' and peers' can motivate PhD students' completion.

Abstract

“Galak sireutôh, yö siribé” is a popular saying in Aceh, referred to the person who is anxious to do what he wants to. This study investigated the student teachers’ anxiety felt when using English orally during their learning. Using the adapted questionnaires from Young’s (1990), that has been adapted by Occhipinti (2009), it involved 46 students undertaking English Speaking in a higher education in Lhokseumawe, Aceh. The results show that the majority of the students like English very much; however, they spent little time for using it orally, ranging from 1 to 8 hours per week. Most of them also affirmed that their English speaking ability is bad. It was also found that most of the students were highly anxious when speaking English with high self-exposure, but less anxious when engaging in collaborative activities and when given enough time to prepare what they talk. Yet, several students seem to have trait anxiety as they are highly anxious in most learning activities. Most were highly anxious for speaking English individually. This is likely influenced by their contextual, social and cultural factors, such as people in Aceh are known as communal rather than individualistic society.

Abstract

Acehnese people have many culturallyunique mathematical treasures, such as for measuring size and volume. Some of which are different from the ones used in other parts of Indonesia and some have been rarely used and even unknown by today’s generation. However, research on the measuring scales in Aceh is scant. This study was carried out to understand the Acehnese people’s prevailing measuring scales used. These scales are ethnomathematics parts of the Aceh culture. The research was conducted in six districts. Snowball sampling was employed through which people who are knowledgeable on Aceh culture were selected for interview. It shows that the volume scaling units of ethnomathematics in the culture of Aceh society are kay, aree, naleh, gateng, gunca, and kuyan. 1 kuyan = 10 gunca; 1 gunca = 10 naleh; 1 naleh = 16 aree; 1 aree = 4 kay. The size and volume of the kay, aree, naleh, gateng scales vary in each district.Moreover, the language used for scales and meanings slightly varies, such as naleh that is used for measuring volume or size only in some districts of Aceh and for both volume and size in other parts of the province.

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) curricula within Indonesian and Malaysian universities. Specifically, it examines how SDGs are represented in EFL curricula, how EFL lecturers perceive the integration of SDGs, and how they implement SDG-related content in their teaching practices. Drawing on Bronfenbrenners (2000) Ecological Systems Theory (EST), a qualitative narrative inquiry was employed, using document analysis of course outlines, lecture slides, and materials, and assessments, as well as semi-structured interviews with nine EFL lecturers from four universities. Course documents were analyzed using content analysis to examine SDG integration in the curricula, while interview transcripts were thematically analyzed, coded, and mapped onto ESTs microsystem and mesosystem levels. The content analysis of syllabi and course materials showed limited and inconsistent references to SDGs, with few explicit outcomes, activities, or assessments. Microsystem analysis showed all nine lecturers valued integrating SDGs in EFL to build students knowledge, skills, and attitudes; whereas, mesosystem data indicated the SDG implementation was driven mainly by individual initiative, with only sporadic program- or campus-level support. The nine lecturers also reported a mix of course-embedded activities and co-/campus initiatives to integrate SDGs. To move beyond ad hoc efforts, universities should embed the SDGs in learning programs and learning outcomes, provide SDG-ready materials and assessment rubrics, fund professional development, and offer rewards and incentives for supporting consistent integration.

Abstract

Developing the Textbook of Classroom Action Research through Participatory Action Research: Quality and Challenges. Objective: This study collaboratively developed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) textbook and formatively evaluated its quality. Method: Using Participatory Action Research (PAR), this study collaborated with 29 teachers in Aceh to design, develop, and iteratively evaluate the textbook. During the design and development process, we formatively evaluated it through self-reflection, expert appraisal, questionnaires, and interviews to produce quality textbooks in terms of validity and practicality. Findings: Results showed that although most teachers initially did not understand CAR, there was an increase in their understanding and interest in implementing CAR with the textbook guidelines. Besides, the textbook’s validity and practicality increased as expressed by the teachers. Conclusion: Using PAR in writing CAR with the teacher improves the quality of the textbook, in terms of its validity and practicality.Keywords: teachers’ involvement, participatory action research (PAR), textbook quality. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpp.v11.i1.202101
