Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the perception of undergraduate students enrolled in a private university in Bandung, regarding video conference-based English courses. The study utilized a quantitative approach by employing a questionnaire to collect data from a group of 116 undergraduate students in their seventh semester. The questionnaire was designed to identify students' perspectives on video conference-based English courses, focusing on aspects such as course benefits and identified drawbacks. The study found that the participants positively perceived video conference-based English courses. The participants agreed that the courses offered several benefits, including increased flexibility, reduced cost and reduced commuting time. However, participants also highlighted drawbacks related to technical challenges and reduced opportunities for face-to-face interaction. These results underline the adaptability of higher education in response to the video conference-based courses serving as a viable alternative to traditional in-person instruction. This study has implications for both educational policymakers and teachers. By recognizing the perceived benefits and drawbacks, Policymakers may consider the possibilities of developing regulations that encourage the integration of technology and remote learning into the broader curriculum. Furthermore, educators can refine their instructional strategies to align more closely with students' preferences and needs, ultimately enhancing the quality of remote education.

Abstract

The introduction section of a research article (RA) is crucial, as it serves as the foundation for the entire research study. A well-crafted introduction can captivate readers, offering essential insights into the background and rationale for the study, while also conveying the research's quality and reliability. This study investigates how novice versus experienced social science researchers introduce their work in English research articles (RAs) published in internationally recognized Scopus-indexed journals compared to those published in Indonesian national journals. We analyze the rhetorical structure and linguistic features used in these introductions. Employing Swales' (2004) Create A Research Space (CARS) model as a theoretical framework, this descriptive comparative qualitative study delves into the analysis of commonalities and differences in the execution of rhetorical moves and steps, as well as linguistic features and metadiscourse. The results reveal that both sets of data exhibited all three rhetorical moves outlined in the CARS model, namely Move 1 (Establishing a Territory), Move 2 (Establishing a Niche), and Move 3 (Presenting the Current Work). However, the findings also underscore distinctions in how these steps and metadiscourse were realized, indicating that writers in both groups employed distinct approaches when introducing their research studies. Implications to English teaching at universities and publication workshops are discussed.

Abstract

This study presents the reflections of two Indonesian mothers working as EFL teachers on their experiences of fostering their children's bilingual development. It employed a narrative inquiry approach, gathering the participants' stories through oral and multimodal narratives. The mothers shared their stories during a semi-structured interview and through photos and videos. The findings reveal that the participating mothers introduced English to their children early by engaging them in natural English interactions and activities such as story reading before bed, hands-on activities, role-playing, games, and daily communication. Despite many similarities in activities, the consistency and continuity of providing exposure to English and Indonesian languages are different. The first mother implemented One Parent One Language Strategy (OPOL) with her child, using English with mother and Indonesian with father. On its journey, she shifted the strategy to Minority Language at Home strategy (MLaH) due to her husband’s passing with her child communicated English at home and learned Indonesian from school, relatives, and communities. Meanwhile, the second mother used English and Indonesian (mixing language strategy) to communicate with her daughter, using English as the dominant language. When her daughter started mixing the structure of the languages and experienced language confusion, the second mother minimized English use at home and shifted to using Indonesian as the dominant language at home. The findings also indicate that in nurturing children’s bilingualism, the mothers’ choices of practices involved five aspects of reflection: their philosophy, belief, theory, practice, and sociocultural aspect beyond practice. This study highlights that the process of nurturing children’s bilingual development is not a linear process. It involves a more complex relation of various factors that influence parents’ decision in (dis)continuing certain language policies.

Abstract

Drawing on the framework of theme systems in systemic functional linguistics, this study aimed to explore the students writing in textual meaning-making. The explanation text was the genre of the sample. The students wrote about different topics. Then, the researcher focused on content, organization, vocabulary, and grammar. The data were collected from 3 secondary students’ writing tasks in Temanggung, central Java. Functional text analysis was used to analyze the data including, the Ideational, interpersonal, and textual themes system. The results represent that the students exaggerate the use of certain types of theme systems. for example, in the case of the topical theme. The analysis accounted that several students use this way but ignore the others. Most nominal groups appear in the clause and have fewer modalities. The textual theme is dominant in this paper and ideational (for instancehe use of conjunctive and continuative) is median, and the Interpersonal theme (modality) is the lowest. In summary, introducing the modality systematically and providing more contexts for learners to practice it is highly recommended in such a context.

Abstract

Since the Kurikulum Merdeka was implemented to respond to the learning loss students experienced during the Covid-19 pandemic, student-centered learning assessment (SCLA) has become a significant part of current Indonesian senior high school educational initiatives. However, previous research found that teachers need more understanding of the concept of SCLA. Thus, this study explores vocational high school EFL teacher's understanding of SCLA in implementing problem-based learning in the Kurikulum Merdeka aligned with the theory from Jonassen (2000). This qualitative case study employed an interview as the main instrument to discover an understanding from one teacher. Based on the data analysis through thematic analysis, the findings revealed that the teacher had a fair understanding of the student-centered learning assessment's concepts, advantages, and obstacles. Nevertheless, the teacher still needed to learn more about SCLA. Although not all of the research findings were relevant to the previous study and the theory, the teacher reasonably implemented the student-centered learning assessment while improving the future teaching- learning process, particularly the assessment system. Moreover, there is an expectation for the school, principals, and other stakeholders to pay attention to providing teachers with training regarding student-centered learning assessment. In addition, teachers are expected to be willing to stay up-to-date with the change of curriculum, including the shift in the assessment form, teachers' role, and learning to understand the current curriculum and the learning methods.

Abstract

One of factors leading to the success of students’ learning is interpersonal relationships between teachers and students. One indicator contributing to this relationship is communication; one of its aspects is teacher confirmation, happening in the classroom interaction. The current study aims to reveal students’ perceptions on teacher confirmation as one of elements affecting student-teacher interpersonal relationships and how teacher confirmation affects their learning. This case study involved two high school students - high achiever and low achiever - selected from their English competence judged by the English teacher. Adapting Ellis’ Teacher Confirmation Scale (2000), sequenced and open-ended interview was conducted to both students in order to collect the data. The findings show that teacher confirmation exists in the classroom interaction and is perceived by both participants. Notwithstanding, teacher confirmation does not equally give positive impacts on students’ learning in general. In conclusion, high and low achiever responds teacher confirmation in different ways, resulted from factors which have not yet been explored in this study. Examining related intervening factors and the degree to which they affect how students perceive and respond to teacher confirmation is recommended for future research.

Abstract

The research aimed to investigate the changes in the request strategies of Indonesians and Americans when they spoke English and Indonesian. In cross-cultural communication, several things needed to be considered to avoid misunderstanding, such as the addressee’s knowledge, experience, culture, and value. Different kinds of request strategies in intercultural communication between Indonesians and Americans could lead to misunderstanding. The research applied a qualitative research involving five Indonesian and American speakers who speak English and Indonesian fluently. The data were collected through multiple resources such as the Discourse Completion Test (DCT) with certain situations, which was distributed to the participants, and observation and interview during the meeting with the participants. The findings show that Indonesians tend to be more direct when they make requests in Indonesian, while they change into indirect request strategies when making requests in English, while American participants tend to be indirect when making requests in English even though some of them are direct and changing into direct strategies when making a request in Indonesian. It also reveals that Indonesians tend to be more direct than Americans when they use their native language. It contradicts other studies that say Indonesians tend to use indirect requests, which also influences Americans in how they make requests in Indonesia. Therefore, it is suggested that intercultural knowledge is important in language learning to avoid misunderstanding due to the differences in norms, values, and beliefs.

Abstract

Developing professional competence is always required by the teacher to present meaningful learning experiences to reach the goal. Moreover, the pandemic has changed every side of life, including teaching and learning activities. One of the competencies is designing the instructional objectives, and the teacher community can support their development. This study explores the role of the teacher's community in developing teachers' professional competence in designing the instructional objective in the EFL context. This study uses qualitative methods with questionnaires and interview instruments to collect the data. Two teachers contribute to this study. They come from senior high school teachers. One teacher teaches in a public school, and the other teaches in a private one. The result showed that three types of teachers' communities play a role in respondents' development in teachers' professional competence in designing instructional learning objectives. Besides, they can design the learning objectives; further researchers may conduct follow-up research with a broader subject, complete literature, and more relevant methods to draw generalizations.

Abstract

This article delves into the pivotal roles of religious and social education in shaping individual values and fostering societal harmony within Indonesia's multicultural and multi-religious context. Using Iwan Mucipto's novel Kiai Ibrahim and Religious Harmony as a literary lens, the discussion highlights how religious education can promote mutual respect and counteract intolerance and extremism. In contrast, social education cultivates responsible citizenship and social cohesion. Through a qualitative content analysis of the novel, we explore the portrayal of vital Islamic values—akidah (faith), Syariah (law), and akhlak (behavior)—and their interconnection with social values such as empathy, sacrifice, and communal support. The findings underscore the novel's potential as an educational tool, offering insights into holistic development strategies essential for contemporary educational challenges. This study contributes to the ongoing dialogue on integrating moral and social education in diverse societies, emphasizing the urgency of fostering peace and understanding in an increasingly divided world.
