Abstract

Translating an L1 (source text) into a target language would be a daunting task and time-consuming work for students who are non-native speakers. It might be more challenging when the L1 text is a discipline specific text. Many words and specific terms are difficult to translate, and often unintended meanings emerge during this translation process. Although there has been considerable research on the translation studies, there has been still little study on how translators cope with the challenges. To fill this void, this case study is aimed to describe techniques employed by students majoring pharmacy in translating direction for use texts from English into Bahasa Indonesia. Adopting Vinay’s and Darbelnet’s (1996) translation methodology, this research is aimed to describe the translation process that students already undertook in order to produce texts that appropriately work in a particular social context. There are four drug brochures taken as samples of analysis. These texts are students’ assignment for the topic of translation. This is a group work and part of the whole assessment. The study provides detailed and specific examples of how students tackle the challenges of translating discipline specific texts into equivalent languages that are socio-culturally and linguistically acceptable. HIGHLIGHTS: Translating a text is not simply to transfer the meaning of source text into the target text, but it requires the translator to have sufficient discipline specific knowledge. The challenges and problems faced by translators would be different from one another since each discipline specific text requires different strategies.

Abstract

This research reports on the results of an interview study of nine English teachers at vocational schools (VS) in Indonesia. The study aimed to explore English teachers’ voices of the revitalization program at VS’s in Indonesia. The study shed the light on two major issues of English teaching and learning at VS’s concerning revitalization program implementation. The two main themes were the use of specific technology in the language classroom and video mediated language learning in vocational English classroom.The results indicated that most of teachers more preferably used social media for teaching than utilizing a learning management system (LMS). Teachers have used video mediated teaching method for their English classes either self-production videos or a ready-made video from the internet. English for business was also introduced to students to equip them with basic knowledge for a job selection The results have implications for the implementation of revitalization programs in particular the revitalization of vocational English teaching and learning at SMK. HIGHLIGHTS: Most of teachers more preferably used social media for teaching than utilizing a learning management system (LMS) this is because social media is more practical, handy to use, and equipped with sufficient features, such as voice note, video recording, and device mirroring, which enable teachers to build learning engagement with students. Video mediated EFL teaching is an innovative teaching strategy developed by EFL teachers amidst the crisis of Covid 19. The videos are self-made by teachers and ready to use resources from the internet. The integration of technology into EFL classroom at vocational schools is one of the ultimate goals of the revitalization program at vocational schools across Indonesia.

Abstract

This study investigated the independent language learning that Indonesian nursing students did after school on YouTube. Six undergraduate nursing students who have a lot of experience with YouTube viewing and have level of English equal to B1 were asked to participate in a one-on-one interview to discuss their opinions of this selfregulated language learning. A narrative inquiry design was deployed to explore the stories of how learners felt about this technologically mediated language learning and how it affected their language skills. The results show that discovering motivation for learning English, searching for extra learning materials, and potential metacognitive learning styles were the three most popular reasons for studying English on YouTube. Students perceived that learning English on YouTube was more flexible, entertaining, and approachable than traditional classroom instruction. However, this informal education does not promote socialization or an awareness of cultural differences between nations. The findings have made a significant contribution to the futureinstructional design of ESP classroom where the integration of YouTube videos may become an alternative for more engaging ESP classroom interaction. Besides, promoting awareness of cultural diversities and appropriate online social interaction need to be considered for YouTube mediated learning activities to help students use the language appropriately within its socio-cultural settings. HIGHLIGHTS: The three most common motivations for nursing students to learn English on YouTube were finding motivation, looking for additional resources, and potential metacognitive learning approaches. The integration of YouTube videos may become an alternative for more engaging ESP classroom interaction. To assist students utilize the language effectively within its socio-cultural settings, YouTube-mediated learning activities need to take fostering awareness of cultural diversity and acceptable online social interaction into account.
