Abstract

Numerous scholarly inquiries have been dedicated to exploring the advantageous consequences of implementing computer-mediated communication (CMC) for the purpose of orchestrating online group discussions. However, there is a paucity of empirical evidence elucidating how educators adapt to the use of CMC in the context of online group deliberations. The present research delves into the experiences of an English teacher in an Indonesian secondary school who employed CMC as a pedagogical tool. Grounded within the qualitative research paradigm, this study conducted unstructured in-depth interviews and subsequently subjected the interview transcripts to thematic analysis. The resultant findings shed light on several pivotal aspects of the teacher's role in CMC-enhanced online group discussions, which encompass the activation of students' creative faculties, the fostering of students' self-regulation of learning, the cultivation of a conducive learning environment, the advocacy for technological integration, and the effective management of assessment procedures in the online group discussion setting. Conclusively, this research posits that the incorporation of computer-mediated communication in online group discussions bears substantial educational advantages, as it affords students with alternative avenues to harness their skills and technology, thereby facilitating interpersonal exchanges among students and between students and educators.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the linguistic schoolscape within the confines of a private Islamic university located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Employing a geosemiotic approach, the study integrates two distinct dimensions, namely visual semiotics and place semiotics, with the aim of elucidating the nuanced social meanings inherent in the linguistic environment of the university. Drawing upon a meticulous analysis of 200 distinct signs, it is revealed that the prevailing linguistic expression encompasses monolingual Indonesian discourse, accounting for 61% of the corpus, alongside a significant presence of bilingual English-Indonesian discourse, constituting 34.7% of the top-down category. Conversely, within the bottom-up category, monolingual Indonesian discourse maintains dominance at 69.9%, followed by bilingual Indonesian-English discourse at 13.7%. This study discerns two principal dimensions within the realm of visual semiotics: pictorial representations and material attributes. Pictures representations predominantly manifest as compositions of images, texts, or a fusion thereof. Material aspects encompass considerations of code preference, inscription modalities, and spatial emplacement. At this university, code preference reflects a nuanced interplay among various linguistic statuses, notably including the presence of Javanese (a local language), Indonesian, and English, with monolingual Indonesian holding a position of prestige alongside bilingual English-Indonesian or Indonesian-English expressions. Inscriptions typically adopt screen printing techniques, employ small font sizes, and exhibit compact board dimensions, characterised by a horizontal orientation and white colouring. Emplacement practices entail the strategic positioning of signage along thoroughfares and occasionally include instances of transgressive signage. In the domain of place semiotics, it is discerned that the perceptual space within which signs operate is inherently interconnected with the surrounding built environment and spatial configurations. This symbiotic relationship between signs and their spatial context engenders a cohesive visual landscape. Pertaining to the utilisation of space, institutional signage predominates in top-down configurations, while signage displays in bottom-up arrangements play a significant role in delineating functional spaces.

Abstract

This study examines the language-related challenges faced by Indonesian students enrolled in short-term English Medium Instruction (EMI) courses abroad, facilitated by the Indonesian International Student Mobility Awards (IISMA). Using a mixed-methods approach, we analyzed survey responses from fifty-four students and conducted three focus group interviews to gain a comprehensive understanding of their experiences. The research instrument, based on Evans and Morrison (2011) and modified by Kamasak et al. (2021), was employed to quantify these challenges. Our analysis revealed significant challenges in writing and speaking. These difficulties were prevalent regardless of the students backgrounds, suggesting that current preparatory measures may be insufficient. Specifically, writing emerged as the most formidable challenge, with many students struggling to express their ideas clearly and coherently in English. These findings underscore the critical need for comprehensive preparatory frameworks that go beyond basic linguistic competence. We advocate for the integration of robust academic preparation programs within mobility initiatives to better equip students for the linguistic demands of EMI courses. Such enhancements are essential for improving the overall academic experience and success of students in international educational contexts. The implications of this study extend to policymakers and educators involved in designing and implementing EMI programs, emphasizing the importance of targeted support to address language-related challenges.

Abstract

Background: This research explores the experiences of Indonesian doctoral students in English-speaking universities through a collaborative auto-ethnographic approach. Utilising Schartner and Young's (2016) stress and coping strategies and culture-learning frameworks, we analyse narrative data to investigate our academic and sociocultural journeys in the US, UK, and Australia.   Methodology: To attain a profound comprehension, we participate in personal and group introspection, analysis, and interpretation, utilising imaginative thought, creativity, emotional self-exploration, and ongoing dialogues. The study identifies four major psychological adaptation themes (social support, survival, spirituality, and compliance), a critical socio-cultural adaptation theme (feeling like cultural aliens), and a vital academic adaptation theme (questioning our academic capability amid struggles with critical reading and writing).   Findings: The findings reveal three themes: Psychological Aspects: “Social Support, Survival, Spirituality, and Compliance”, Sociocultural Aspect: “We Are Cultural Aliens”, Academic Aspect: “Questioning Our Academic Capacity as We Struggled to Read and Write Critically”.   Conclusion: The findings underscore the significance of awareness and emphasise the necessity for effective adaptation among international doctoral students. This research contributes valuable insights into the challenges faced by Indonesian doctoral students in Anglophone academic settings, shedding light on the importance of support systems, cultural understanding, and academic confidence stop where for a successful academic journey.   Originality: While previous studies have largely examined the difficulties faced during adaptation, the way these challenges ultimately lead to successful outcomes remains under-explored. This research seeks to address this deficiency by investigating how Indonesian international research students in Anglophone universities convert cultural, psychological, and academic obstacles into successful adaptation.
