Abstract

The issue of plagiarism and students' writing difficulties appeared to be a difficulty for teachers, so the existence of paraphrasing is a means to prevent plagiarizing. The objective of this study is to describe manual paraphrasing for students in paraphrasing or rewriting English writing. This research is descriptive qualitative. The analysis shows that manual paraphrasing is the activity of rewriting a text into another form manually without the help of online tools. In teaching paraphrasing manually, ten several strategies can be used by students, including using synonyms, changing the word form, changing active or passive sentences, changing transitions/connectors, changing/rearranging the order of ideas, changing or modifying text structure, simplifying or summarizing sentence, changing the double negative into a positive form, adding quotation marks for important points, and combining paraphrasing techniques. Students need to combine these strategies by applying more than two strategies than a single paraphraseIn manual paraphrasing, students must carefully study the source material, comprehend its meaning, attempt to explain it, and then rewrite it using their words while preserving the same meaning. Manual paraphrasing requires more effort and takes time than using automated tools, but the results may be better than expected.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of the Indonesian language as language use and instruction in English teaching for Non-EFL students in ITB AAS Indonesia. This research is descriptive qualitative. The result analysis shows that Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) is a language used and instruction used by an English lecturer. English lecturer uses Indonesian in explaining and emphasizing English materials of grammar/tenses to their students. 2) English lecturer uses Indonesian in instructing the students about giving tasks and preparing for the test. An English lecturer usually uses a mixture of two languages, for example, Indonesian and English because the students are not from the English department, but they are mostly from non-English majors. She has considered using Indonesian based on the conditions and requests of students. Besides, She also translates from Indonesian to English and vice versa during English teaching, so the students can understand what is being said. English can be an international language used and instructed in class, so students will have the opportunity to increase their English skills. However, it is also possible that students struggle to comprehend English said by their lecturers. Besides, the usage of Indonesian in English teaching is used by the lecturer for Non-EFL students to overcome challenges in their learning. The use of Indonesian in the English classroom is beneficial to the teaching-learning process, provided that it is not overused and does not become habitual. When the students are taught only in Indonesian fully, they cannot use and master English. This issue necessitates a flexible approach to language use while instructing students in an English classroom. For instance, the use of Indonesian is restricted to the instruction of specific topics, such as grammar and vocabulary, while the use of English is restricted to the instruction of particular subject skills, such as pronunciation.

Abstract

This research describes the use of Wordtune as an AI-Powered writing tool for rewriting or rephrasing English writing. This research uses descriptive qualitative research. The analysis shows that Wordtune can be accessed at www.wordtune.com. If we do not have an account, we can register by using Google, Apple, Facebook, and Email, then we can log in. We answer questions related to writing needs and choose our profession and native language. In an initial trial, we can use Wordtune in a free version. We can input the sample sentences or text in the column available. Several alternative writing options including Rewrite, Casual, Formal, Shorten, and Expand” will be generated, then we choose one of them. Wordtune gives us several options to adjust to our writing style including casual, formal, short, or expand. Rewrite is exploring new ways to rephrase our sentences. Casual is conveying a lighter and less serious tone for the right audience. Formal is presenting sentences in a more sophisticated and professional way. Shortening is sticking to word limits and conveying messages clearly and concisely. Expanding is expanding our sentences to give more detail, nuance, and depth. We as educators need to teach students how to use this AI text writer wisely and responsibly. Students can use it to help improve the clarity and style of their writing. However, every writing produced by AI certainly needs to be checked for accuracy because AI tools may produce results that are inconsistent with readability and meaning.
