Abstract

Recount text is included within the curriculum of English subjects in the Indonesian context, where students are expected to be well-informed and be able to compose a good recount text to express themselves. The current study aimed at analyzing the recount text written by an advanced (C1 level of English) student based on the concept of Systemic Functional Linguistics. Through a qualitative case study, the data on the text organization, language features, Theme system, and Theme progression of the text were obtained through systematic identification, calculation, and analysis. The findings show that the text fulfilled the text organization and language features of a recount text. Moreover, the types of Themes with the most occurrence were unmarked topical Themes (51,2%), followed by topical textual Themes (40%), marked topical Themes (8%), and interpersonal Themes (0,8%). Based on the Theme system, Theme reiteration occurred most frequently (88.20%), while the Zigzag Themes only represented 11,80% of the total. The dominant use of unmarked Themes demonstrates the writer’s skill in keeping the focus of the readers on the central topic of the text, while the huge number of textual Themes is the implication of the student to maintain the text’s cohesion and coherence.

Abstract

The aims of the current research are threefold. First, it aimed to find out the motivations of students in Islamic education programs to choose an EMI program. Secondly, it was conducted to reveal the student satisfaction with the EMI program. Third, it sought to explore the difficulties or challenges perceived by students in the EMI program. This study employed a quantitative descriptive approach, surveying 22 students from an international class at an Islamic state university in Jogjakarta, Indonesia. The results revealed that students were mainly motivated by the need to access international publications, improve English proficiency, and enhance career prospects. Most participants felt that the program offered positive challenges, boosted motivation, and improved their vocabulary related to their courses. Additionally, many students expressed satisfaction with their lecturers' spoken English and the simplified content delivered in English. In terms of challenges, nearly half of the students reported difficulties in understanding lectures and course contents. Other challenges included writing notes and following peer discussions. These insights highlight the need for targeted support and instructional strategies to address the linguistic demands of EMI programs in the Indonesian Islamic higher education context.

Abstract

Analytical exposition texts feature causal relationships and nominalization, which can be explored through a grammatical metaphor framework. Despite numerous studies on analytical exposition texts and grammatical metaphors, research on grammatical metaphors in analytical exposition texts in an EFL textbook has not been extensively reported. Through a qualitative research design, particularly qualitative content analysis, this study explored the frequency and variation of ideational metaphors in four selected analytical exposition texts in an EFL textbook for tenth graders of senior high schools in Indonesia. The results show that shift from process to thing occurred most frequently (37%), followed by shift from relator to relator: circumstance (conjunction verb) (15.8%), shift from process to process: quality (13.7%), and shift from thing to thing: class (of things) (13.1%). The other three types of shifts that occurred least frequently are shift from thing to thing: possessor (of thing) (11%), followed by shift from quality to quality: thing (6.8%), and finally, relator to relator: circumstance (conjunction prepositional phrase) (2.6%). The pedagogical implications of this study emphasize the importance of explicit teaching of grammatical metaphor through a genre-based approach. This research offers important contributions to our understanding of EFL teachers in facilitating students with the knowledge of grammatical metaphor and nominalization for better academic writing skills.
