Abstract

The use of Bloom’s taxonomy to form knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, evaluation, and creation in choosing the type of reading test was to consider the role of higher and lower-order thinking skills in reading comprehension questions in English textbooks. The conceptual aspects of the reader's mental and visual response to the purpose of reading comprehension needs were the ability to generate new thoughts, separate ideas into parts, and judge the values of ideas by using appropriate criteria based on the text. This research contributed to the following questions: (1) the representation of Bloom’s taxonomy levels in English textbooks, and (2) the calculation of reading comprehension questions in each level of Bloom’s taxonomy. Using a qualitative approach with content analysis, the results showed that the types of reading comprehension questions could foster the student’s critical thinking regarding acquiring learning objectives in the English curriculum. Most of the question was focused on comprehension level (26%), knowledge/remember level (17%), application level (16%), synthesis level (14%), analysis level (13%), evaluation level (11%), and creation level (3%). By applying Bloom's taxonomy, English teachers were suggested to classify their instructional objectives and learning goals.

Abstract

This research investigated the dynamic relationship between figurative language and intercultural competence among university students engaged with BBC News broadcasts. The research focused on language acquisition and listening skills to explore how metaphors, similes, and idiomatic expressions could facilitate communication in diverse linguistic contexts. Guided by a constructivist model and serving in the dual roles of a United Nations ambassador and an English lecturer, the focus was on nurturing critical thinking and autonomous learning within a cohort of 23 English education students in North Sumatra, Indonesia. The primary objective was to emphasize the significance of English proficiency in fostering global partnerships. The findings revealed effective listening skill strategies, including selective attention, recalling prior knowledge, evaluating and repeating the phrases, and contextualization. These strategies yielded benefits such as cultural discovery, enhanced language comprehension, and empathy building. Observations emphasized the importance of background cultural knowledge, managing passage length, and addressing cultural competence topics. Understanding figurative language was essential for cultural students, enhancing creative thinking and fostering comprehensive global citizenship.

Abstract

This study investigated the prevalence and types of rhetorical fallacies in the argumentative sections of English education theses, despite overall grammatical accuracy. Drawing on Toulmin’s argument model, cognitive reasoning theories, and nexus-juncture analysis, three-fifty undergraduate theses from three universities in Indonesia were analyzed qualitatively. Common fallacies such as hasty generalization, false cause, strawman, circular reasoning, and either/or reasoning were identified and mapped onto Toulmin’s components (claims, warrants, backing, rebuttals). Findings revealed that students demonstrated competency in grammatical structures but often lacked logical consistency in their arguments which led to flawed reasoning that undermined their thesis statements. The findings recommended that integrating rhetorical fallacy identification into writing instruction could improve both the clarity and validity of student arguments. This study highlighted the need for focused pedagogical strategies to address both grammar and reasoning skills in argumentative writing to promote effective and persuasive academic communication in English education.

Abstract

Abstrak. Industri konstruksi di Indonesia menghadapi tantangan dalam hal efisiensi waktu, biaya, dan pengelolaan material, terutama dalam proses pengangkatan beton pracetak (precast). Salah satu masalah yang sering muncul adalah keretakan pada beton saat proses pengangkatan yang disebabkan oleh ketidaksesuaian alat angkat. Dalam rangka memberikan solusi terhadap permasalahan ini, dilakukan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat di PT. Gelora Konstruksi dengan mengembangkan penggunaan limbah potongan tiang pancang baja (steel pipe piles) sebagai alternatif spreader beam untuk proses lifting beton pracetak. Pemanfaatan material bekas ini bertujuan untuk mengurangi biaya, mempercepat waktu fabrikasi, serta menjaga kualitas konstruksi dengan mengurangi potensi keretakan pada beton. Melalui analisis teknis menggunakan perangkat lunak SAP2000, spreader beam yang terbuat dari limbah potongan tiang pancang dinyatakan aman dengan stress ratio <1. Hasil kegiatan pengabdian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan material limbah ini menghemat waktu fabrikasi dari 10 hari menjadi hanya 3 hari, serta mengurangi biaya pengadaan material baru. Kegiatan ini memberikan kontribusi nyata terhadap pembangunan berkelanjutan dan praktik konstruksi ramah lingkungan. Kata Kunci: Spreader Beam, Steel Pipe Pile, Efisiensi, Inovasi, Konstruksi

Abstract

The objectives of this research were focused on English teachers’ perspectives on learner autonomy and to what extent English teachers felt their learners were autonomous in online reading comprehension in times of the COVID-19 pandemic. These research questions were answered by using observation, interview, and Likert-scale questionnaire in the form of qualitative method. The sample of this study was 26 English teachers in 4 elementary schools and 5 junior high schools in North Sumatra, Indonesia. The results of the study showed some points on learner autonomy, such as: (1) the importance of learner autonomy, (2) the way English teachers promoted learner autonomy, (3) the challenges and responsibilities of English teachers to implement learner autonomy, (4) English teachers’ observation to learners’ autonomy in online reading comprehension, (5) learners’ activities in online reading comprehension strategy, and (6) English teachers’ preparation in online reading comprehension class. This research concluded that the degree of learners’ autonomy during the pandemic was higher rather than before the COVID-19 pandemic due to some reasons.
