Abstract

This qualitative research on Cyberpragmatic attempts to explore the application of politeness and impoliteness principles in student-lecturer internet-mediated communication in English and Indonesian languages at two faculties of Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Salatiga. The native speakers' perceptions of those strategies and principles as applied in the online chatroom were also elicited to confirm the descriptive analysis of the utterances. Pragmatic data were taken, categorized, and selected from Whatsapp conversation and email correspondence screenshots between lecturers and students in eight (8) online English Language classes and six (6) classes on Ushul Fiqh subjects at Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Salatiga. Additionally, as demonstrated in the screenshots, an online questionnaire was used to elicit data on students' and lecturers' perspectives on the cyberpragmatic activities. The descriptive analysis shows that the students considered the principles of politeness as a prominent aspect of their communicative actions and managed to appropriately applied it in their cyberpragmatic activities. Additional pragmatic features of religious expressions were also used to amplify the politeness effect. Nevertheless, there were some cases where impoliteness principles were used by the students, regardless of their awareness of their pragmatic consequences. The acceptability judgement questionnaire confirmed the level of politeness and impoliteness strategies previously described. Consequently, future research may benefit from this study by exploring other aspects of cyberpragmatics such as ethnicity, gender, and other socio-political aspects, from interdisciplinary perspectives.

Abstract

This study explores how educators in Islamic and secular institutions in Indonesia differ in their beliefs and strategies for integrating Islamic values into English Language Teaching (ELT). Educators in Islamic schools, pesantren, and Islamic universities show very strong confidence, viewing integration as both a religious duty and a pedagogical requirement. In contrast, teachers in secular schools and universities maintain moderately strong but cautious beliefs due to the demands of neutrality and inclusivity in multireligious classrooms. Implementation practices also diverge sharply. Islamic institutions apply explicit strategies—such as Qur’anic readings, hadith-based vocabulary lessons, ILRP materials, and prayer routines—leading to short-term increases in religious motivation and long-term reinforcement of Islamic identity. Secular institutions use more implicit or universal-value approaches, including honesty-based writing tasks, ethical discussions, and tolerance-related themes, which foster social–moral development and multicultural identity formation. These differences reflect deeper institutional orientations and offer important implications for inclusive ELT curriculum and teacher training.

Abstract

This study aims to identify which AI tools Indonesian graduate students use for academic writing and how aware they are of AI's use in their writing. A survey was administered to 79 graduate students to collect data for this study. The results indicate that ChatGPT is the most frequently utilized AI model, alongside various others that help improve students’ English writing and comprehension skills. The participants also demonstrated an understanding of the necessity of engaging with AI-generated writing for their academic needs and acknowledged the importance of maintaining research ethics when employing these tools. In summary, students are effectively using AI chatbots, especially ChatGPT, to support their academic writing. Their significant awareness of AI's role suggests they recognize that human contribution is still crucial in the writing process. The results of this study provide valuable insights into the AI tools that enhance academic writing among graduate students in Indonesia. It also presents the level of graduate students’ awareness of the position of AI tools in academic writing. Thus, it is advisable to reassess research ethics regarding the extent to which generative AI models can be incorporated into academic writing. Given its educational implications, universities should develop guidelines for the ethical and appropriate use of AI and clarify AI support limitations within their educational frameworks.
