Abstract

Racism and all its problems like injustice, inequality, discrimination, and so on, have become an interestingly never-ending topic to be discussed along the history. Even in America, a country which is so rich with its fighters of racial discrimination and injustice, this problem still occurs here and there. No matter how hard these heroes speak up their voices, this problem remains unsolved, or, at least, not entirely solved. One event, for example, happened on February 26, 2012in Sanford, Florida, the United States of America. The victim was a young man named Trayvon Martin; an Afro-American high school student. George Zimmerman shot this seventeen-year-old teenager, which led to death. Zimmerman was a 28-year-old Hispanic American man. At that time, he worked as a watchman coordinator in the neighborhood. Martin temporarily stayed there. Obama, who was then the President of the United States, made a speech on Martins death. This paper analyzes Barack Obamas speech from Discourse Analysis viewpoints, as well as the ideological and cultural discourse contained in the speech. In the text analysis, some significant aspects are discussed based on my understanding of SFL (Systemic Functional Linguistics), that is, the aspects of connections, like mode, tenor, and field. Another central issue to be discussed in this paper is the ideological and cultural aspects of Obamas remarks upon Trayvon Martins death. This speech can be a very good example of how an argumentative writing appeals so many people and makes them sympathize with the victim of the shooting. Through this paper, I hope that my own understanding of discourse analysis will be deepened, and readers will also gain some new horizon and knowledge of discourse study in general, including the cultural and ideological analysis of the text under study. I also hope that more convincing speeches of the authentic world like this one can benefit students of Academic Writing.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the implementation of the School Literacy Movement (GLS) program at SMP Negeri 4 Namohalu Esiwa through an ethnographic approach. It examines the perceptions of teachers, students, and parents regarding the program, literacy practices within the school, socio-cultural barriers, and school culture factors that support students' reading interest. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that the GLS program at SMP Negeri 4 Namohalu Esiwa has not yet effectively improved students' reading interest due to limited library facilities, insufficient access to relevant reading materials, and low parental involvement in supporting students' literacy development. Furthermore, the local culture, which emphasizes oral traditions over written literacy, poses a significant challenge. Nevertheless, teacher support and literacy activities such as reading corners and a 15-minute pre-class reading period demonstrate potential for further development. This study recommends enhancing literacy facilities, providing teacher training, fostering collaboration among schools, parents, and communities, and integrating local cultural elements into the GLS program. These steps are expected to foster a sustainable literacy culture and significantly improve students' reading interest.

Abstract

Online Single Submission Risk Based Approach (OSS-RBA) is a risk-based business licensing service system that is carried out online. It is important to know about the application of the OSS-RBA Policy because it relates to the country's national achievements in simplifying the business licensing process and attracting foreign investors. The plantation business sector, especially oil palm, is important to pay attention to. The high contribution of the country's foreign exchange originating from this industry is one of the reasons the government has made the business licensing process smooth. For this reason, this research aims to measure the level of success in implementing the OSS-RBA Policy in the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Service (DPMPTSP) Ketapang Regency, especially in plantation companies. This research uses a mixed method with purposive sampling. In this study, respondents were divided into two groups, specifically 4 respondents from the policy implementer and 35 respondents from the oil palm plantation company. The George Edward III Policy Implementation Model used theory, which determined four indicators that influence implementation: communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The research on communication indicators showed that there had been a clear and consistent transmission of information from policymakers to policy implementers and business actors. Meanwhile, equipment and authority resources have been fulfilled in the resource indicators. For disposition, licensing services have been provided optimally. Finally, regarding bureaucratic structure indicators, DPMPTSP Ketapang Regency has done SOPs for services and licensing activities.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of using Portuguese and Tetun as languages of instruction in primary and secondary schools in Dili, Timor Leste, and its implications for human resource development. While Tetun facilitates students' understanding in local contexts, its limited global relevance presents a challenge. Conversely, Portuguese, though internationally recognized, is not fluently spoken by most teachers and students, reducing the effectiveness of the teaching and learning process. This qualitative research involved 68 informants, including education officials, principals, teachers, and students across Dili. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that language barriers, particularly in Portuguese, negatively affect classroom interaction, leading to poor student comprehension and low academic achievement. This situation may hinder the development of quality human resources capable of competing globally. The study recommends that the Timor Leste government and Ministry of Education intensify Portuguese training for both teachers and students, allocate funds for Tetun development, offer incentives to high-performing teachers, and encourage the consistent use of the instructional Language at home and in school, drawing from practices in Cuba and Venezuela. Strengthening language proficiency among educators and learners is essential to improving education quality and supporting Timor-Leste's broader socio-economic advancement.
