Abstract

Copy pasting has been one of the most frustrating phenomena in our academic life. It is found and ranged from students’ simple formative paper to end-of-course assignment. This article presents semester 1 students’ level of competence in sense making. The data was taken from the documents of students’ power point presentation in Literacy class at English Applied Linguistics State University of Medan. Prior to the presentation, the researcher assigned the students to devide the slides into 5 sections, i.e: introduction, connection, application, reflection, and connection as part of problem-based learning design. The findings show that only 33% of the presentations deliver the information completely in these 5 section, while 67% do not. In connection section, which is assigned for thepresentation of the main content of the article, it is found that only 11% of the presentation deliver complete information about the research which include the background (reasons, problems, objectives) of the research, the techniques in collecting data, the theories used to analyze data, the findings, and the discussion, while 89% do not. Analysis on the content of the slides show that only 33% of the presentation put relevant informations, while the rest (66%) do not. Further analysis of the content of the slides show that 66% of the presentations contains copy paste and only 33% represent the sense making ability. The findings imply that the level of the students’ ability in sense making is very low. It is suggested to find ways to improve this area of literacy skill by empowering all subjects.

Abstract

The 2024 Indonesian presidential election is anticipated to be highly contested, with the potential for online hostility to escalate into real-world conflict. This study examines the impoliteness strategies used by supporters and haters of presidential candidates on social media, specifically within Instagram comments. Employing a qualitative approach, the study analyzed a sample of comments, revealing a predominance of negative impoliteness (70%), followed by positive impoliteness (46%). Sarcasm and mock impoliteness were observed in 17% of cases, while bald-on-record impoliteness was the least common (11%). Interestingly, no evidence of withhold politeness was found. These findings highlight the prevalence of online aggression in Indonesian election discourse, underscoring the need for strategies to mitigate the negative impacts of online impoliteness and protect national unity.

Abstract

Cultural adjustments are essential in the translation process, particularly when translating from Indonesian to English, due to the unique cultural nuances, customs, and expressions inherent in each language. Without careful consideration, these elements can easily be lost in translation. One major challenge is the cultural differences between Indonesian and English. Another challenge is the distinction between formal and informal language usage in both languages. To address these challenges, translators need a profound understanding of both the source and target languages and cultures. They must be well-versed in the cultural norms, customs, and expressions of both languages and adapt them appropriately in their translations. This study examines the translation techniques used to achieve cultural adjustments when translating Indonesian texts into English and how these adjustments are realized by the translator. A qualitative approach is employed, specifically descriptive research, aiming to provide a detailed description of existing translations. The data source for this research is the translation work of an English lecturer at the University Prima Indonesia. The translation techniques identified include adaptation, adoption uptake, common/established equivalence, discursive creation, compensation, and variation. The findings indicate that adoption uptake is the predominant technique used by the translator to achieve cultural adjustments from Indonesian to English.

Abstract

This study examines how university students from rural backgrounds adapt linguistically and culturally after moving to the urban environment of Medan, Indonesia. As these students transition into city-based academic settings, they face the complex task of balancing their cultural roots with the demands of urban life. Guided by Berry’s (2001) Acculturation Theory, this research explores how students navigate issues of identity, language use, and cultural integration. Data were gathered through questionnaires completed by 22 students who had spent at least six semesters studying at a public university in Medan. Through thematic analysis, the study uncovered various adaptation strategies. Most students adopted an integration approach, successfully blending their native language and traditions with urban norms. Some displayed assimilation, especially in formal academic settings, while instances of marginalization were rare. These findings underscore the importance of university policies and support systems that are culturally responsive and inclusive—helping students negotiate their identities and adjust more smoothly to diverse academic environments.
