Abstract

The present paper is a report of two activities of community service on developing students literacy at Sarikarya Elementary School in Yogyakarta on 20 October 2017 and 11 May 2018. The activities sprout from the result of the research conducted in the same school in August 2017 to find out to what extent the children from class 1 to class 6 make progress in their writing of a descriptive text. By using the result of our research as the basic material for our community service, we had a discussion with the teachers so that they would be more aware of the literacy competence of their students, and by so doing they could help their students develop their students literacy in writing. This community service also aims to discuss with teachers what kind of activities could be carried out in class to support the development.

Abstract

This qualitative preliminary study focuses on the linguistic proficiency of Javanese-Indonesian bilingual elementary school children in a village in Gunung Kidul, 65 km south of Yogyakarta in the island of Java, Indonesia, in producing oral narrative and descriptive stories in Javanese and Indonesian. Two kinds of instruments were used to elicit data in this study: a six-minute silent movie and a picture about some activities to commemorate the Indonesian Independence Day. The elicited data from the movie instrument shows that both the lower-grade and higher-grade students were more at ease with Javanese than with Indonesian. From the picture-triggered speech, the result is that the higher-grade students superseded the lower-grade students in their fluency in Indonesian as well as in their ability to construct longer utterances in the language. This study demonstrates that the children’s proficiency in Javanese – their first language – remains at the basic level and it does not develop even though the children are in the higher grade. However, all children are more comfortable with Javanese when they have to do retelling. When the children were given a task that is related to academic requirements, such as describing something that is based on a picture, the higher-grade children perform better in Indonesian rather than in Javanese.

Abstract

Penelitian ini membahas fungsi dan makna indeksikal konstruksi diatesis bahasa Jepang. Dalam tradisi linguistik Barat, konstruksi diatesis merupakan piranti untuk menyatakan makna proposisional mengenai hubungan di antara partisipan dengan situasi yang digambarkan verba. Dengan menggunakan kerangka indeksikal referensial dan nonreferensial, penelitian ini mencoba menjelaskan fungsi konstruksi diatesis bahasa Jepang bermakna  nonproposisional. Fungsi dan makna indeksikal dijelaskan melalui pengontrasan paradigmatis  terkait makna konstruksi yang membentuk seperangkat opsi terbatas dalam penentuan pilihan penutur. Penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa indeksikal referensial berfungsi pula menyatakan makna evaluatif penutur seperti ‘stance’ afektif/emotif terhadap partisipan peristiwa yang selama ini oleh peneliti dianggap dinyatakan melalui indeksikal nonreferensial. Penelitian ini menjelaskan pula bahwa makna indeksikal nonreferensial konstruksi diatesis bahasa Jepang dapat mencakup sikap mental yang meliputi sikap menjaga citra diri, sikap menimbang rasa orang lain dan sebagainya. Hasil penelitian membuktikan bahwa fungsi indeksikal referensial maupun nonreferensial pada konstruksi diatesis bahasa Jepang berhubungan erat dengan kehidupan sosial budaya Jepang.

Abstract

Publishing research articles (RAs) in international journals (IJs) has been considered increasingly crucial by developing countries including Indonesia. For the Indonesian Government, publishing RAs in international journals is important to increase its competitive power academically as Indonesian universities are entering a global competition to attract students. Therefore, publishing RAs in international journals is becoming more and more important, e.g. for promotion, especially at senior levels. This study reports on the second and most widespread national-level survey of a three-year project funded by the former Indonesian Government through its Ministry of Research and Higher Education (MRHE). The central question is, "What are the key factors contributing to their lack of international research publications making the number low compared to smaller nations such as Thailand (before 2017)".This article reports the results of the second survey, with a much bigger population sample from many more universities located in many more different regions covering all the major islands in Indonesia compared to the first survey reported in our previous article. The bigger size of data is important based on the premise that the broader and the more diverse the information sources, the more comprehensive the information will be and the better understanding we gain. Some of the findings support the past results, but some contradict them.

Abstract

There has been a great deal of interest in issues multilingual scholars (henceforth: MLS) have in trying to gain publication in international main-stream English language journals (IEJs). However, little research has been published on the experience of MLS using their perspective, particularly how they perceive their competence (knowledge and skills) to publish their research internationally. The purpose of this study was to fill this gap by investigating what they perceived as the factors that inhibited them from publishing in IEJs. This study mainly used a quantitative method, but the results were supplemented with interviews and focus group discussion with some of the participants in the survey. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) tool of the SPSS statistical programme was used to conduct two levels of analysis: the PCA and Confirmation Factorial Analysis (CFA). The key finding was that the most critical factor for the participants was not a lack of funds as widely reported in many previous studies, but lack of competence to face the challenges of preparing and publishing research article (RA) in IEJs, which had dampened self-confidence. The low self-confidence and two solutions, suggested by the participants, implicitly confirmed the key finding. The participants were aware of the various benefits of research article publication in IEJs, but they were not strong enough to overcome the critical factor. The implication is that policymakers should consider providing regular training for staff with adequate practice and feedback and introducing the subject to undergraduate or, at least, MA students before they embark on starting their research projects.

Abstract

The argument quality in a research article discussion (henceforth RAD) determines the quality of the article as a whole, and therefore this section must be written as convincingly as possible. However, authors in different disciplines such as Language Studies (LS) may address this section in a different argument style. This study is aimed at investigating how Indonesian writers in LS support their findings in their RADs. There were 40 RADs taken from four different Indonesian journals in LS; the articles were chosen from the latest volumes of the nationally accredited journals. This study used a genre analysis method in which the major source of data is a collection of texts as a product of language activity. The results show that the majority of Indonesian writers use Style 1 (interpreting the research findings or suggesting what the research findings mean), Style 2 (explaining or elaborating the research findings), Style-3 (stating the possible cause/s of the research findings), and Style 4 (illustrating or exemplifying the research findings) to support their research findings. However, unlike international authors, Indonesian writers do not relate their research findings with those of previous related studies; if they do so, it is to confirm the interpretation or explanation of their research results. The results of this study may help Indonesian authors in LS improve the quality of their RADs especially when writing articles in English to be submitted to an international journal.

Abstract

The production of English consonants can be challenging for EFL learners, particularly when the target sounds are absent or have limited use in their first language. This study investigated the production and substitution patterns of the English voiceless labiodental fricative /f/ among Sundanese EFL student teachers in Banten. A qualitative case study design supported by descriptive frequency analysis was employed. The participants were 12 undergraduate English Education students aged 20–21 years who regularly used Sundanese in daily communication and had completed pronunciation and phonetics courses. Data were collected through two oral-reading recording sessions using 30 isolated words and 22 sentences containing English labiodental fricatives. The analysis focused on 78 occurrences of /f/ in initial, medial, and final word positions. The recordings were transcribed using the International Phonetic Alphabet, classified according to their phonetic realizations and phonological environments, and validated by two expert raters. The findings showed that /f/ was substituted with the voiceless bilabial stop [p], voiced labiodental fricative [v], voiced velar stop [g], and voiceless velar stop [k]. The substitution of /f/ with [p] was the most frequently identified pattern. These substitutions occurred across different word positions and were influenced by surrounding sounds and orthographic forms, particularly words containing <ph> and <gh>. The findings highlight the need for explicit pronunciation instruction focusing on articulatory features, phonological environments, and English sound–spelling relationships.
