Abstract

This study investigated English Education students' perceptions of World Englishes at UIN Sultan Thaha Saifuddin Jambi. The study was derived from the author's thesis and used the original findings reported in Chapters IV and V. A mixed-methods design was applied by combining a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were collected through fifteen questionnaire indicators (X1-X15) from English Education students and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were obtained through interviews and analyzed thematically. The quantitative findings show positive perceptions across three constructs: overall comprehension of the World Englishes idea (M = 3.8), attitudes toward different English dialects (M = 3.9), and the implications of World Englishes for students' English language development (M = 3.5). The item-level data indicate that students generally agreed that English is no longer owned only by native-speaking countries and that exposure to different English varieties supports communication in real situations. The interview findings strengthened the questionnaire results by showing that students viewed English as a plural and global language, recognized the career and cultural benefits of learning World Englishes, but still experienced confusion, listening difficulty, and uncertainty about formal academic standards. The study recommends more systematic inclusion of World Englishes in English learning materials, classroom interaction, and assessment practices.

Abstract

Inappropriate use of language in communication makes literacy teaching difficult for Orang Rimba (hereinafter OR). Teachers must have good language skills and appropriate literacy teaching patterns. Based on data, very few teachers are interested in teaching OR groups due to regional, cultural, and natural aspects. The purpose of this research was to know the role of the local language in the delivery of literacy at school. The type of research was qualitative, using descriptive techniques. In collecting data, researchers used observation, interviews, and documentation. Furthermore, the data analysis technique was a descriptive technique that describes the conditions in the field as they are. The respondent who would be interviewed was 1 teacher. The observation area to be studied was Pematang Kabau village at Bukit Dua Belas. The findings were, first, the teacher who teach at school must be able to use OR Malay dialect because Indonesian or Jambi Malay dialect were quite difficult for them to understand. Second, the proper literacy teaching model was the direct learning model implemented for youth and children. Based on the findings above, it can be concluded that choosing the right language and good communication when teaching literacy at OR group must have their own strategy so that what is conveyed can be well received.
