Abstract

During the Covid-19 outbreak, with more than one billion school closures occurring worldwide, all teaching and learning interactions have to be conducted online, and it is a challenge for teachers (and learners) to adapt to this sudden shift because most educational institutions were not yet ready. However, regardless of the pandemic, in the era where technology plays a huge part in the advancement of human civilization, it is time for the global education system to evolve and begin incorporating technology into its implementation. Once the pandemic is over, teachers (and learners) will then have the opportunity to choose their medium of teaching and learning interactions, whether it is offline or online. Thus, this study examined and compared the advantages and disadvantages of both offline and emergency remote online teaching. The data were collected through Focus Group Discussion. Several prompts were used as discussion starters, but the researchers allowed the participants to share their opinions freely and let the data speak. The data were then analyzed and coded using thematic analysis. Researchers then made a summary of synthesis assumptions based on and supported by evidence from the data corpus. The findings revealed that teachers tend to favor offline teaching for its direct teacher-student interactions, although the high number of students in one class can be a challenge. Whereas online teaching is preferred for its time-efficiency and flexibility, albeit its technological complexity.

Abstract

One of the fields of expertise that have rapidly advanced in the process of creating economic and financial decisions and regulations locally, nationally, and globally is accounting. This field necessitates not only high accounting knowledge and skills but also communication skills in english, which still holds a status of the world’s lingua franca. Hence, the need for an english for occupational purposes, particularly the English for accountants. This study attempts to investigate the needs of the accounting students as well as professionals and propose a syllabus to meet the needs. To realize the former, job-reporting and interview to two professional accountants were administered, as well as survey to fifty accounting students. To realize the later, the needs analysis results were analyzed and priorities were made. The needs analysis demonstrates that learning speaking skills and listening skills in the context of accounting should be prioritized over the reading and writing skills. More emphasis should also be given to the formal style of communication as well as exposures to actual accounting-related terminologies.  All of which has become the basis for proposing a syllabus design that integrates theme, task, and genre under the principles of Content-Based Instruction that centers on the teaching the subject content through language. Therefore, the syllabus should be prepared not only by the English instructor but also the accounting instructor. Such a syllabus is expected to provide a learning experience that mirrors the actual demand and context of a professional accountant, including the actual and contextual english language usage.

Abstract

Compared to English varieties spoken in the inner circle (e.g., Australian English and New Zealand English), the English variety spoken in Indonesia, especially in acoustic phonetics, is still understudied. Using the Praat computer program, this acoustic study investigates the English vowel production of fifteen Indonesian females and males. The formants (F1 and F2) of their English vowel in words heed /hid/, hid /hɪd/, head /hÉ›d/, had /æ/, hod /hÉ‘d/, hawed /hÉ”d/, hood /hÊŠd/, who’d /hud/, hud /hÊŒd/, and heard /hɝd/ are measured and then compared with the vowels produced by American English speakers. Regardless of the speakers’ gender and English skill levels, the vowels [æ] and [É‘] show the most significant differences between Indonesian and American English speakers. The difference in this study is conditioned more by linguistic factors, i.e., phonetics and phonemics, than by non-linguistic factors, i.e., gender and English skill level. The findings of this study offer a discussion of how acoustic evidence resulting from language education may shed light on possible language contact situations.

Abstract

Penelitian bertema Lanskap Lingistik telah menarik banyak perhatian dari kalangan mahasiswa, dosen, dan peneliti di bidang ilmu kebahasaan di Indonesia. Sudah cukup banyak publikasi penelitian bertema lanskap linguistik yang dihasilkan, dan tampaknya bidang ini akan terus berkembang seiring dengan kedinamisan bahasa dan budaya, serta hubungan yang beririsan antara Lanskap Linguistik dengan bidang ilmu lain seperti Ekonomi, Politik, Sejarah, Sosiologi, Antropologi, dan Geografi. Selain publikasi penelitian, ada banyak video mengenai Lanskap Linguistik secara umum di media sosial, misalnya di kanal You Tube. Namun, belum banyak video singkat dan praktis yang membahas khusus mengenai metode penelitian Lanskap Linguistik, terutama metode penentuan area penelitian, pembatasan data, pengolahan, dan penganalisaan data, padahal tingkat kerumitan penelitian ini cukup tinggi. Serial video yang dihasilkan dalam kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini merupakan upaya mengisi celah tersebut di atas. Serial video terdiri dari empat video singkat mengenai serba-serbi Lanskap Linguistik, sampling area penelitian dan public sign yang umum dilakukan oleh para peneliti. Deskripsi singkat dalam video-video ini dapat memberikan gambaran umum yang diharapkan akan berguna bagi mahasiswa, dosen, dan peneliti sebelum memulai penelitian Lanskap Linguistik
