Literacy is not as simple as “ability to read and write”. Students deal a lot with reading, but they still have problems delivering their ideas in writing. This community service aims to assist students of SMP Pangudi Luhur Salatiga to write their experience they had in the form of recount text. The activity is scheduled when students are having their school break for a week. Instructions, guidelines, consultation, and accompaniment were provided to augment students’ first drafts. The result of this activity reveals that although it is considered difficult, writing is enjoyable. Students’ productivity shows their enthusiasm and eagerness to write about their past experiences. An anthology of recount texts is the final result of their work.

Abstract

Poetry has become less and less preferred by the students. Poetry has been viewed as a boring subject. This is because the process of learning and teaching poetry is considered as a routine activity. This article seeks ways to make poetry become an interesting subject to learn by examining the existing poetry syllabus and proposing a more interactive syllabus. Ethnography was used in this study to gather the information. Lecturers and students will have to work together and collaborate in conducting a conducive atmosphere to reduce the anxiety in learning and teaching poetry. By reducing the anxiety, students will find that learning poetry will give them something more than just analyzing poems. Learning poems will contribute to their English development. The result of this study is a proposed syllabus that is more interactive compared to the existing one, especially the class activities; that are employing collage and mirror writing as ways to appreciate poems read. The implication of the proposed syllabus is that this syllabus should be implemented to see how far the proposed syllabus helps to reduce learning anxiety and make the learning process of poetry class become more interactive.

Abstract

Dalam belajar bahasa Inggris di sekolah, siswa juga diberikan pembelajaran mengenai keterampilan menulis. Keterampilan menulis membutuhkan sarana yang mendukung agar siswa termotivasi dalam praktik menulis. Kegiatan-kegiatan yang menarik perlu diberikan agar siswa dapat membuat tulisan yang bagus dan mendapatkan apresiasi atas kerja kerasnya. Pendampingan dalam pembelajaran bahasa Inggris, khususnya menulis dilakukan dengan menggunakan bahasa yang sesuai dengan generasi siswa SMA. Siswa diajak untuk menulis teks naratif yang sesuai dengan keinginan mereka. Teks tersebut dikumpulkan dan diberikan masukan yang membangun dan pada akhirnya nanti dibukukan dan diterbitkan dalam bentuk bunga rampai. Tujuan dari program ini adalah meningkatkan literasi bagi siswa SMA Kristen Satya Wacana, khususnya dalam penulisan teks naratif. Program pengabdian ini menggunakan metode penjajakan untuk mengetahui permasalahan yang nantinya digunakan untuk menyusun materi yang sesuai untuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut.

Abstract

Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memperlihatkan wujud internalisasi patriarki dalam tokoh utama perempuan dalam novel karya Ayu Utami, Maya, melalui analisis penokohan. Tujuan penelitian yaitu mendeskripsikan dan menjelaskan bagaimana nilai-nilai patriarki masih tertanam dalam kehidupan masyarakat modern dan juga dialami oleh Yasmin sebagai tokoh utama di dalam novel. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif kualitatif. Sebagai seorang perempuan yang digambarkan sebagai pribadi yang mandiri dan kuat, Yasmin masih memiliki ketidakpuasan akan dirinya. Ini adalah salah satu pemicu dia berselingkuh dengan Saman, karena ketika bersama Saman, Yasmin merasa aman, diterima sebagai pribadi yang utuh tanpa kepura-puraan. Sedangkan jika bersama Lukas, suaminya, Yasmin harus bersikap sesuai dengan ‘tatanan’ yang ada. Yasmin adalah contoh dari alpha female character (pribadi yang mandiri, punya otoritas). Namun Yasmin tidak sepenuhnya digambarkan sebagai alpha female, karena masih ada kekosongan yang dia miliki yang ingin dia penuhi.

Abstract

Pada era ini, budaya lokal semakin luntur dan mungkin akan tergantikan dengan budaya dari luar, disamping itu, kurangnya ketertarikan anak-anak pada budaya lokal. Tujuan program pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah melestarikan seni budaya ketoprak, sekaligus memperkenalkan dan merawat keberagaman melalui perpaduan seni tradisional daerah dan penggunaan bahasa internasional. SD Kristen Satya Wacana Salatiga bekerjasama dengan Fakultas Bahasa dan Seni Universitas Kristen Satya Wacana mengadakan pementasan ketoprak anak, dimana hal ini juga bertujuan untuk memperkuat peran UKSW sebagai Indonesia mini, tempat berbagai budaya daerah dijaga dan dihargai. Metode pelaksanaan yang dilakukan untuk pementasan ketoprak anak ini adalah melalui proses perencanaan, yaitu penulisan naskah dan latihan, kemudian pementasan dan evaluasi. Judul dari ketoprak anak tersebut adalah Dewi Wulan, yang dipentaskan menggunakan 4 bahasa yaitu bahasa Jawa, bahasa Indonesia, bahasa Inggris, dan bahasa Mandarin. Hasil dari kegiatan ini menyimpulkan bahwa pengenalan budaya multikultural dapat berjalan seiring dengan upaya melestarikan budaya lokal, dalam hal ini ketoprak, yang dikemas melalui pembelajaran bahasa asing. This era sees the diminishment of local culture and the likeliness of it being replaced by foreign cultures which can be a consequence of the younger generation’s interest in their own local culture. That said, SD Kristen Satya Wacana and the Faculty of Language and Arts of Universitas Kristen Satya Wacana organized a children's ketoprak performance which aimed at preserving the performance art of ketoprak while introducing multiculturalism through the use of international languages. This performance was also staged to cement the branding of UKSW as ‘Indonesia Mini’ where local cultures are preserved and appreciated. There were several stages to the performance: planning, script writing and rehearsal, and performance and evaluation. Taking the title of ‘Dewi Wulan’, the performance used four languages in its script: Javanese, Indonesian, English, and Mandarin. The performance led to a conclusion that the introduction of multiculturalism can happen simultaneously with the preservation of local culture, ketoprak in this case, presented through language learning.

Abstract

Movies can be said as a reflection of real life. This study is aimed at finding the compliment responses by the main characters in two movies. The movies are 'Mars Met Venus' and 'Hitch'. The data were taken from the utterances of the main characters, both are male and female, that were considered as compliments' responses. The topics of the compliments in those two movies are appearance, ability, personality, and possession. The finding resulted in this research showed that there were 20 compliment responses found in those movies. There are silent, return, questioning, reassignment of praise, explaining, shifting to other topics, appreciation, and agree. In 'Mars met Venus, there are silent (3 times), returns (3 times), questioning (3 times), reassignment of praise (1), and explaining (1). While in 'Hitch', there are shifting to other topics (4 times), appreciation (1), explaining (1), questioning (2 times), and agree (1). Based on those, it can be concluded that questioning (25%) got the highest percentage, then shifting to other topics (20%), silent (15%), return (15%), explaining (10%), agree (5%), reassignment of praise (5%) and appreciation (5%). Questioning as the highest percentage in these movies shows that the person being complimented needs more explanation about the compliment. In comparison, there are similarities and differences from those movies. Those differences are the reflections of different cultures represented by the two movies. Keywords: pragmatics, movie, compliment response.

Abstract

Abstract. The main character, Yasmin, in the novel Maya was described as a strong and independent woman. Her relationship with other characters in the novel was the main focus of this research in terms of the power relation between Yasmin and other characters. This study aimed to find out Yasmin’s traits (in addition to the existing traits analyzed) through the analysis of politeness strategies used by Yasmin in her relationship with other characters. Qualitative method was used in which data analyzed were utterances. The utterances were analyzed based on the power relation between speaker and hearer as well as the politeness strategies used. The discussion showed that Yasmin used positive politeness more than other strategies and put herself in the position of holding the power in her relationship with other characters. Thus, Yasmin can be considered as a person who is confident as well as flexible. Keywords: Politeness Strategies, Character, Power Relation
