Abstract

Tujuan dari pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah memperkenalkan guru taman kanak-kanak (TK) pada nursery rhymes sebagai media dalam pengajaran bahasa Inggris bagi anak-anak TK. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dilakukan dengan adanya hasil observasi dan survey yang dilakukan oleh tim pengabdian pada beberapa TK di kelurahan Sukorejo-Gunungpati, Jawa Tengah. Survey sebelumnya menungkap bahwa para guru TK masih menggunakan media gambar sederhana dan metode dril dalam memperkenalkan bahasa Inggris ke siswa mereka. Sayangnya, para guru TK tersebut masih melakukan kesalahan dalam pengucapan selama praktik drilling. Untuk itulah, penting untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut melalui kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat. Dengan melakukan serangkaian pelatihan, tim pengabdi kepada masyarakat mengajak dua puluh guru TK yang dating dari beberapa TK di Sukorejo untuk berpartisipasi dalam kegiatan ini. Berdasarkan hasil pelatihan yang telah dilaksanakan, para guru TK sangat tertarik pada penggunaan nursery rhymes dalam memperkenalkan bahasa Inggris bagi siswa mereka. Hal ini dikarenakan para guru menganggap bahwa nursery rhymes merupakan media yang sangat tepat dan cocok dengan karakter siswa di TK. Dalam sesi praktik, para guru TK dapat mengimplementasikan bagaimana menggunakan nursery rhymes di kelas mereka. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat berjalan dengan baik.

Abstract

Analysis of Idiomatic Expressions in the Movie "The Call of the Wild." The purpose of this research is to identify the different idiomatic that were used in the movie “The Call of the Wild” and to decipher their true meanings. Researchers employed the theory of McCarty and O'Dell and an idiom dictionary to address the set research topics. This study employs qualitative descriptive research techniques. Data analysis was done by reducing and displaying information to conclude. The study's conclusions are as follows: the six kinds of McCarty and O'Dell idiomatic idioms were discovered in the movie The Call of the Wild. The six categories of terms are similes idiom (7%), binomials idiom (5%), proverbs idiom (16%), euphemisms idiom (22%), cliches idiom (17%), and fixed statement idiom (33%). The most common form of idiomatic expression is a Fixed Statement idiom, the dominating idiom. On the other hand, binomial idioms are the style of idiomatic expression that The Call of the Wild uses the least. The implied meaning of idiomatic can be deduced from the context of the statement in the movie. Idioms cannot be understood in just one word or phrase, so they must be understood in one sentence or paragraph to understand the meaning of the original context.

The findings revealed positive perceptions of online backchannel implementation as a formative assessment in improving their writing skills. They considered it a new and innovative process of an assessment that helped them get the maximum result of writing. Furthermore, students' motivation and confidence in writing were raised. This study's implication calls for the implementation of online backchannel in English class as a formative assessment during the writing process.
