Abstract

This study investigates the common errors made by students when using the simple present tense in writing descriptive texts. The aim of the study is to identify the specific types of errors that occur and to explore the factors contributing to these mistakes. The research adopts a descriptive qualitative method to gather data, employing a written test as the data collection tool. To categorize the errors, a surface strategy taxonomy is utilized, which includes four categories: omission, addition, misformation, and misorder. By analyzing the collected data, a total of 214 errors were identified, with 95 instances of omission errors, 22 addition errors, 75 formation errors, and 22 ordering errors. The findings highlight that the most prevalent type of error made by students is omission, while misformation, misorder, and addition errors are relatively less frequent. In addition to error analysis, the study explores the reasons underlying these errors, particularly focusing on interlingual and intralingual transfer. Interlingual transfer refers to the influence of a student's first language on their second language usage, while intralingual transfer refers to the influence of existing knowledge and patterns within the second language itself. These factors contribute to the occurrence of errors in the simple present tense usage within descriptive texts.

Abstract

The role of applications that were rife after the implementation of distance learning is still being used even though face-to-face has restarted. One application that is creative and can increase student motivation in learning is the use of the Book Creator application. Therefore, teachers will be greatly assisted in making learning materials with this application because it uses the integration of several modes such as images, sound recordings and videos. The purpose of this community service is to provide training to teachers at SMA 3 Maros in operating the Book Creator application. The results obtained from this service are that the trainee teachers show a high interest in this application and provide new insights into making textbooks.

Abstract

This study investigates lecturers' experiences implementing digital learning in English reading classes in Indonesian higher education. With the widespread adoption of digital technology, English reading classes that previously relied on printed texts and face-to-face interactions increasingly integrate digital tools to enhance student engagement and comprehension. This research uses a qualitative approach to explore lecturers' experiences adapting their teaching methodologies with digital tools. The purposive sample involves five lecturers teaching English reading classes at Maros Muslim University who have experience with traditional methods and digital learning, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were collected through one-on-one interviews, providing rich, detailed accounts of how lecturers integrate digital learning into their teaching practices. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data, following the methodological framework of Braun & Clarke (2006). This approach involved systematically identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) within the data. The findings reveal that lecturers demonstrate high flexibility in using various digital devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets to meet different teaching needs. Lecturers also emphasize the importance of the interactive capabilities of digital tools, which can transform passive reading into a more dynamic and engaging experience. However, they also acknowledge the value of traditional learning materials like printed books, which remain important for tasks requiring deep engagement and critical thinking. The study highlights the need to balance digital and traditional learning resources to create inclusive and effective learning environments. The lecturers' experiences adapting to digital tools are crucial for successfully implementing digital learning and improving educational outcomes. This study provides valuable insights into the practical realities of digital learning implementation and strategies to support lecturers in this transition process.

Abstract

Corpora have emerged as a transformative tool in the field of linguistics, providing researchers with a robust, data-driven approach to understanding language use. By compiling large collections of texts-ranging from written documents to transcriptions of spoken language-corpus linguistics enables the analysis of authentic language in its natural context. Corpora in applied linguistics have revolutionized the study of language by providing a data-driven approach to understanding linguistic phenomena. By analyzing large collections of naturally occurring texts, researchers can uncover patterns, frequencies, and contextual usages that are not easily identifiable through traditional methods. This approach has not only enhanced the theoretical foundations of linguistics but has also offered practical applications in fields such as language teaching, discourse analysis, and translation studies. As highlighted by Hunston (2002), McEnery and Hardie (2011), and Biber, Conrad, and Reppen (1998), the integration of corpus methodologies into linguistic research has not only deepened theoretical insights but also provided practical tools for educators and researchers alike. Susan Hunston's "Corpora in Applied Linguistics," now in its second edition, serves as a comprehensive guide to these methodologies, reflecting the advancements in the field over the past two decades. This review aims to provide an in-depth evaluation of Hunston's work, highlighting its significance, distinct features, and contributions to the field of applied linguistics.

Abstract

This study explores the perspectives of Universitas Muhammadiyah Enrekang (UNIMEN) students on cross-cultural adaptation during their international internship in Thailand. Community service programs, which are mandatory for Indonesian tertiary students, offer practical experiences that bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world application. This research focuses on the challenges and adaptation strategies employed by students participating in teaching practices at private Thai schools. Using a qualitative methodology and thematic analysis, data were collected through interviews with eight fifth-semester students majoring in English Language Education. The findings identify eight key challenges: administrative issues, health problems, psychological stress, social integration difficulties, teaching challenges, culture shock, language barriers, and inadequate facilities. Cultural barriers, such as differences in the education system and social norms, led to experiences of homesickness and stress. Language difficulties were particularly pronounced due to limited Thai and English proficiency among locals. To address these challenges, students adopted several strategies, including seeking social support, engaging in cultural learning, using sign language, and fostering communication with locals. These strategies helped alleviate culture shock, improve cross-cultural understanding, and enhance teaching effectiveness. The study underscores the importance of adequate preparation, including cultural learning modules, and provides valuable insights for universities to better support future participants in international community service programs.
