Abstract

Universities all around the globe have been working hard on internationalization to improve the quality of education, students, and alumni, along with the demand of a more dynamic world. Universitas Brawijaya (UB), as one of the renowned campuses in Indonesia, has also implemented the internationalization strategy to realize its vision and mission as a World Class, Entrepreneurial University. As part of the internationalization strategy, UB runs a “3 in One” program involving visiting professors from universities abroad, practitioner lecturers, and internal lecturers in education, research, and community service activities. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of the “3 in One” program, emphasizing lecturers’ perspectives as program implementers. We employed a mixed-method study with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The research population was all lecturers involved in the “3 in One” Program. Samples were chosen using stratified random sampling. The research instrument was a questionnaire adapted from (a) the Guidebook of World Class Professors by the Directorate General of Resources for Science, Technology, and Higher Education of the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education and (b) the Term of Reference (TOR) of the 2019 “3 in One” Program of UB, Student Evaluation of Educational Quality (SEEQ), and (c) semi-structured interviews. It is expected that our findings could become a reference for stakeholders of UB to evaluate and improve the program. In addition, the findings could also become a creative reference for the government and other universities in Indonesia to adopt a similar program according to institutional needs.

Abstract

In the context of English as a Foreign Language (EFL), the state of being successful in foreign language learning should not be only determined by how well they perform in the written test but also by how good they are at using the target language to communicate messages orally. Beside getting more exposure to the target language as the language input for language learning, implementing appropriate learning strategies has proven to be one of influential aspects in  contributing to the students’ success in learning English. In relation to this, this study aims to investigate kinds of learning strategies that have been implemented by successful students majoring in Hotel Management at Vocational Program of Universitas Brawijaya. After careful selection of the successful students, in-depth investigation to reveal their kinds of learning strategies were done by observing their classroom performance, distributing questionnaire, and interviewing them for further details of information. The results show that the students have employed compensation, meta-cognitive, social and cognitive strategies in helping them learn the target language. Future researchers are suggested to conduct a study on language learning strategies involving more learners from other majors in relation to their language learning.

Abstract

Having good ability in speaking will positively benefit students majoring in English Department in their future career. Being able to speak English well will strengthen their identity as English Department students. However, not all of them are able to speak in English well for communication. Thus, the researcher intends to investigate what kinds of hampering factors that apparently make English Department students hard to speak in English. This study is done qualitatively. The subjects of the study cover 364 students of University of Brawijaya, State University of Malang, and Kanjuruhan University. The instruments used are questionnaire, interview guide and observation sheet. The findings show that the most hampering factor of speaking skill in terms of teaching and learning activity is lack of assignment that makes the students do not get sufficient time to practice. In terms of learning materials, too difficult materials have bevome the most hampering factor for them to speak up. Next, in relation to lecturer’s personality, a lecturer who is too serious is the highest reason why they do not speak up actively. Then in terms of the use of English as a medium of instruction, the most hampering factor for the students is lack of the use of English in class. The next hampering factor related to feedback given is the ways how the lecturers give feedback which make the students embarrased. It is expected that the findings of this study can help lecturers to help students improve their speaking skill much better by designing better curriculum and syllabus, applying more communicative strategies in teaching, and creating more helpful atmosphere during the teaching and learning activities.

Abstract

In the teaching of writing, interesting media and appropriate teaching techniques are essential to help learners improve their writing ability. In relation to descriptive text, imagining someone or using pictures to describe has not given meaningful experience for students to get ideas on what to describe and how to describe well. Regarding this, many EFL students of D3 English program of Vocational Program at Brawijaya University still found it difficult to develop and organize ideas of someone’s description. Therefore, using observation realia was proposed to be used as a medium to help students solve their problems in writing a descriptive text. This Classroom Action Research on the use of observation realia was done through process-genre based approach which consisted of 4 stages: planning, implementing, observing and reflecting. The result shows that the use of observation realia through process-genre based approach could improve the students’ writing ability in terms of content, organization and language use. English teachers or lecturers are suggested to use observation realia as one of interesting alternative media in teaching writing. Also, further researchers are suggested to develop the use of observation realia for students with different level of education and for different kinds of text types.

Abstract

Internationalization has been promoted in many universities worldwide to improve education management, students, and alumni within the dynamic era of globalization. Universitas Brawijaya (UB), as one of the leading universities in Indonesia, is also implementing the internationalization strategy to realize the mission and vision as a World Class Entrepreneurial University. One of the efforts in the internationalization strategy is the “3 in One” Program that involves visiting professors from foreign countries, practitioner-lecturers, and internal lecturers in the implementation of education, research, and community service. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of the “3 in One” Program in UB by emphasizing students’ perspectives as service users of university services or UB services. The study was qualitative using a survey method. The population was all students in study programs that have joined the “3 in One” Program. Samples were chosen using stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire adapted from Student Evaluation of Educational Quality (SEEQ) and semi-structured interviews. Findings showed that 212 respondents (87.6%) knew that the “3 in One” Program involved a visiting professor, a practitioner-lecture, and a lecture from UB. It is expected that UB could improve its socialization of the concept of the “3 in One” program within the study programs or UB’s lecturers and to students. The study programs are expected to have better preparations to minimize language barriers in the “3 in One” Program. The study programs and the university are also encouraged to conduct regular evaluations on the “3 in One” Program.

Abstract

To accommodate meaningful students’ speaking activity with the situation that can create communicative atmosphere, include pragmatic features, and arise motivation, role play is highly proposed due to its salient features. This paper aims to explain what kinds of pragmatic aspects that can be found in role-play activity and how pragmatic insight can be inserted in classroom activities in the context of TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), particularly in developing students’ speaking skill. This study is limited in the context of TEFL for Senior High School students. The findings show that the pragmatic aspects which can be found in role-play activities include maxim of quantity (be as informative as needed), maxim of quality (give true contribution), maxim of relevance (be relevant), and maxim  of manner (avoid ambiguity and be orderly), turn-taking, and adjacency pairs. The ways how to teach role-play based on the pragmatic aspects are also presented in this study.

Abstract

This study aims to discover hospitality management students' perspectives on using SEMESTA to improve their English skills. This study used a mixed method with a quantitative and qualitative approach. The study's respondents included 35 students of Bachelor of Applied Hospitality Management, Faculty of Vocational Studies, Universitas Brawijaya. Data were collected from questionnaires and interview guidelines. The study's findings showed that the SEMESTA (Source of English Materials Using Technology-based Application) website as a medium for learning English for Hospitality Management students is easily accessible by all devices. However, there have also been instances of website buffering when respondents used the SEMESTA website. Furthermore, respondents' perspectives on English learning materials on the SEMESTA website showed that the material presented complies with their needs and is appropriately understandable. Based on the respondents’ perspectives, the English language skills that they perceived to have improved were reading and writing skills, especially for the fun grammar, reading spot, and exploration components. Utilizing the SEMESTA website as one of the English learning materials can help students learn English independently and feel the benefits of improving their English skills even though it is a gradual process. However, a number of things still need to be developed to optimize the SEMESTA website to support the English Language learning process. First, the content and variety of material on the SEMESTA website need to be improved and supplemented so that the materials are not only dominated by reading and writing exercises but also include video or listening material to help students in improving their productive speaking skills. Also, additional features need to be made to make the website look more attractive. Lastly, a login or sign-up feature must be added to identify who is accessing the website to monitor the student learning process through the SEMESTA website.

Abstract

Menurunnya jumlah wisatawan yang berkunjung ke Kabupaten Trenggalek di tahun 2020 pasca pandemi covid 19, menuntut pemerintah kabupaten Trenggalek untuk menyusun strategi dalam meningkatkan perekonimian. Dalam strateginya, Bupati Trenggalek menggagas program pengembangan Trenggalek Seratus Desa Wisata (SADEWA) dengan jargon MEROKET (Maju ekonomi rakyatnya, SDM yang kreatif dan Ekosistem yang terjaga). Dalam mewujudkan misi tersebut, Dinas Pariwisata Kabupaten Trenggalek meluncurkan program Peningkatan Daya Tarik Destinasi Pariwisata melalui Pemasaran Pariwisata. Pemasaran pariwisata dilakukan melalui media digital berupa website, karena memiliki tampilan yang lebih menarik, interaktif, informatif serta memiliki jangkauan pasar yang lebih luas. Namun, informasi tentang tempat wisata saja tidak cukup. Perlu adanya informasi pariwisata yang lebih lengkap terkait dengan fasilitas-fasilitas pendukung seperti penginapan, rumah makan, dan tranportasi yang terintegrasi. Oleh sebab itu perlu dikembangkanan Tourism Centre System dengan nama Sistem Informasi Destinasi dan Kalkulator Paket Wisata Di Kabupaten Trenggalek. Melalui sistem ini, selain mendapatkan informasi-informasi detail tentang destinasi wisata, para calon wisatawan dapat mengetahui kisaran biaya yang dibutuhkan ketika akan mengunjungi destinasi wisata serta produk-produk wisata di Kabupaten Trenggalek
