Abstract

This study goes into the rich idioms of the Indonesian language related to learning, specifically focusing on "mencari ilmu" (searching for knowledge), "menuntut ilmu" (demanding knowledge), "menimba ilmu" (drawing water of knowledge), and "menggali ilmu" (unearthing knowledge). These terms provide nuanced perspectives on the nature of active learning in Indonesian culture. The study aims to (1) Analyse the literal and figurative meanings of each term within the context of active learning. (2) Explore how these terms reflect different stages and approaches to the learning process. (3) Highlight the values and principles embedded within each term that contribute to effective learning. The study employs a document analysis approach, meticulously examining existing literature and scholarly works on Indonesian language, education, and cultural values. Additionally, the author, as a native Indonesian speaker, utilizes introspection to provide in-depth insights and personal interpretations of the terms. The analysis reveals subtle differences in meaning and emphasis between the terms, showcasing the multifaceted nature of active learning. Each term illuminates a specific aspect of the learner's role, from the initial spark of curiosity to the dedicated pursuit of knowledge, the patient extraction of established information, and the adventurous exploration of uncharted territories. The study concludes that these Indonesian idioms offer valuable lessons for active learning beyond cultural boundaries. They emphasize the importance of curiosity, determination, effort, and independent exploration in the pursuit of knowledge. Cultivating an active learning mindset empowered by these principles can pave the way for individuals to become lifelong learners and contribute meaningfully to society.

Abstract

Despite the significance of motivation and pragmatic competence for L2 learners, surprisingly, research into L2 pragmatics learning motivation is almost non-existent. Drawing on the self-determination theory of human motivation, the present study was carried out to investigate the level and nature of Indonesian EFL learners’ motivation for L2 pragmatics learning. A total of 76 Indonesian-speaking sophomores studying international business management were asked to fill out a tailor-made, 29-item online questionnaire designed to measure the level and nature of their motivation for L2 pragmatics learning. It was found that (i) Indonesian EFL students’ motivation for L2 pragmatics learning was insufficiently high, (ii) their intrinsic motivation was the highest compared to other types of motivation, and (iii) their external motivation was surprisingly low. These findings can be explained in the light of the students’ previously instructed foreign language learning experiences which placed undue emphasis on the formal aspects of the target language while marginalizing the social ones. Pedagogically, the findings imply that, owing to the malleability of human motivation, EFL teachers should employ principled instructional methods to promote their students’ L2 pragmatics learning motivation. Be that as it may, further studies need to be conducted to (in) validate the above-mentioned findings, taking into consideration the limitations of the present study.

Abstract

In the era of globalization and rapid international trade, business correspondence has emerged as a crucial tool for effective cross-cultural communication and professional success. This study aims to examine the role of English business correspondence in international business management, focusing on its linguistic features, communication strategies, and the challenges faced by non-native speakers. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method supported by content analysis of real-life business letters, emails, and memos collected from multinational companies. In addition, interviews with professionals and language instructors were conducted to identify the key skills required for writing effective business correspondence. The analysis reveals that clarity, conciseness, and formal tone are vital elements that define successful business writing. Moreover, intercultural awareness and pragmatic competence significantly impact the tone and appropriateness of communication in diverse business environments. Findings also indicate that learners of English for Business Purposes (EBP) often struggle with vocabulary selection, cultural politeness norms, and organizational structure in written messages. The study concludes that mastering English business correspondence requires a combination of language proficiency, cultural sensitivity, and real-world practice. It recommends incorporating authentic business writing samples into teaching materials, developing learner awareness of formal language structures, and providing consistent feedback. These findings are particularly useful for English educators, corporate trainers, and international business professionals aiming to enhance communication competence.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) as part of digital marketing strategies to enhance online visibility in the hospitality industry. In response to rapid developments in digital technology, hospitality businesses are required to adapt to modern marketing practices that are more measurable and customer-oriented. One of the key strategies in this transformation is SEO, which plays a pivotal role in improving website rankings on search engine result pages, thereby attracting potential customers organically. This research employs a qualitative approach using data collection methods such as direct observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data sources include digital marketing personnel, analytics dashboards, and supporting literature. The primary focus is on evaluating how SEO initiatives—such as keyword optimization, content enrichment, and structural enhancements—contribute to measurable performance improvements. Findings indicate that the implementation of SEO, which began in December 2023, had a significant positive impact. The number of unique visitors increased by 68%, total visits grew by 101%, and page views surged by more than 624% in 2024 compared to the previous year. These improvements are closely linked to the systematic application of SEO techniques, including content relevancy, keyword alignment, and the use of analytical tools such as Google Analytics for ongoing evaluation. The conclusion drawn from this study is that consistent and well-executed SEO implementation significantly enhances online visibility and strengthens competitiveness in the digital hospitality landscape. The study emphasizes the importance of maintaining continuity in SEO practices to ensure long-term benefits. It also serves as a reference for digital marketing practitioners seeking to optimize their web presence in a highly competitive market.
