The gender-stereotype of how man and woman should be and behave considering on his/her proper activities in a real life might be portrayed throughout the symbolizations in which numerous readers do not understand what they are about, whereas those symbols of gender-stereotype are teaching the children the concept of masculinity and femininity. This study thus scrutinizes the symbols of gender-stereotype in Hans Christian Andersen‟s The Little Mermaid. The data analysis is in the form of symbols which have the issues of gender-stereotype taken from the original fairy tale of The Little Mermaid in 1836. The aims of this study are to find out the symbols of gender-stereotype and describe the meaning of each symbol. Utilizing descriptive qualitative method, the results of this study are the symbols which have the gender-stereotype of masculinity are “King” related to non-emotional and intellectuality in authority of a man. “Knife” is found allied to the masculinity trait of a strong man and “Sword” is an analogue of a brave, adventurous and intellectual man. Moreover, the symbols of femininity found are the “Mermaid or Siren” is interwoven to such the embodiment of a flirtatious woman. “Long Hair” is germane to a loyal and submissive woman.

Abstract

Nature is essential to our lives. Unfortunately, the widespread influence of modernism and industrial progress results to environmental pollution and destruction of the nature. Ecocriticism study is thereby projected to awaken self-awareness and sense of belonging to human beings towards the nature. This study is thus aimed to discuss and integrate the nature of Ecocriticism in English language teaching, particularly in the applications in lesson plans and teaching materials. The results show that Ecocriticism disseminates the issues of environmental crisis and the necessity of saving the nature and therefore taking the roles of literature to lead people virtue and right is necessary. English teachers is unequivocally became “green” moral agents. They have new responsibilities to use literature to not only teach English skills and components, but also to embed and spread the virtues of loving the nature to the students. Thus, the concept of Eco-ELT derived from the terms of Ecociticism and English Language Teaching (ELT) was coined and introduced. Eco-ELT worked on a basis postulate that literary works could be an avenue to teach English and ecology at the same time. The selections and applications of the literary works therefore mattered. This study provided samples and principles of designing eco-lesson plan and selecting and designing eco-teaching materials. Importantly, this study expounded the areas of eco-English materials necessary for English teachers.

Abstract

This study responds to the imperative for ELT’s explicit contribution to environmental sustainability. This study proposed and developed an ecomusicology instruction about Earth in ELT, exploring its impacts on EFL students’ nature connectedness and interests. Using mixed-method convergent research design, 11 participants, third-semester students in an English education department in Surabaya, Indonesia (comprising 3 males and 8 males, aged above 18) experienced the instruction for more than a week. Pre- and post-test surveys were administered to obtain quantitative data which were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Post-instruction, the students completed open-ended questionnaires for qualitative insights. Integrated results of quantitative and qualitative analyses revealed improvements in students’ nature connectedness and interests. The results suggest that the use of ecomusicology in teaching environmental issues in English lessons enhances EFL students’ unity with nature and strong nature interests. These results highlight a new avenue for the ELT field to address environmental issues by developing future citizens’ (EFL students) environmental sustainability values: nature connectedness and interests through ecomusicology instruction.

The interaction among gamers happened in different types of fields and tenor depends on their roles and context in online games. The lexical resources data found that gamers dominantly used noun words beside other language features.

Abstract

Global environmental catastrophes affecting present planetary ecosystems necessitate immediate and coordinated actions from all sectors and disciplines, including English language teaching (ELT). ELT shares the responsibilities with other disciplines to address ecological crises like climate change and biodiversity loss. However, environmental research and praxis in ELT lack of movement due to lack of unifying concept. An existing related concept, Eco-ELT, focuses solely on ecocriticism approach in ELT, limiting its scope. In fact, environmental research and praxis in ELT can take many forms, approaches, and models. For that reason, this conceptual article extends the Eco-ELT by elaborating on its philosophical standpoints: ontology, epistemology, and axiology. It also presents the Eco-ELT principle and framework of practice for English teachers, curriculum designers, and policymakers to implement the Eco-ELT intervention in English education. Finally, it elucidates the Eco-ELT research principle and area. These complete elaborations of the Eco-ELT aim to enhance and organize the structure of environmental movement in ELT and advance the contributions of ELT in decolonizing the Earth.
