Abstract

This study aims to explore and measure the effectiveness of instructional materials based on job interview simulations in improving students’ Mandarin speaking skills, particularly as a systematic and contextual preparation for the selection process of the Certified Internship and Independent Study Program (MSIB) under the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) scheme. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining qualitative and quantitative techniques. Qualitative data were collected through classroom observation and students’ verbal responses during simulations, while quantitative data were obtained from pretests and posttests. Initial findings showed that students struggled to comprehend interview questions and provide coherent, appropriate answers. After the simulation sessions, significant improvements were observed in fluency, word choice, intonation, and contextual understanding and response. These results emphasize the urgency of integrating simulation-based learning into Mandarin speaking instruction to prepare students for professional communication in the workplace. This article recommends applying a similar model in other foreign language programs and suggests the development of interactive and adaptive digital instructional resources.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the need for Mandarin language skills to support work communication in the tire manufacturing industry, with a case study at PT Sailun Manufacturing Indonesia. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation.The results of this study show that communication between local employees and Chinese supervisors is mostly conducted directly with the help of translators, as well as using alternatives such as Google Translate and hand gestures. However, these methods are not yet fully effective due to limited internet signal in the machine area and the suboptimal use of hand gestures in conveying detailed messages. The main challenge faced is the limited Mandarin proficiency of local employees, especially in speaking, listening, and reading skills. An effective strategy to overcome these challenges is Mandarin language training accompanied by individual learning motivation.These findings emphasize that mastering Mandarin is an essential need in a multinational work environment to improve communication effectiveness and work productivity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the types and functions of imperative sentences found in episode 1 of the Chinese drama The Untamed, adapted from the novel Mo Dao Zu Shi by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the research focuses on identifying imperative forms in the characters' utterances and classifying them into five categories: command, prohibition, request, invitation, and permission. The data were collected through non-participatory observation and documentation, then analyzed using imperative sentence theory in Mandarin. The findings show a total of 94 imperative sentences, with directive imperatives being the most dominant (52 instances), followed by prohibitions (18), invitations (6), requests (6), and indirect imperatives (9). These variations not only reflect the linguistic structure but also reveal the characters’ emotions, social relations, and power dynamics. The study highlights how Mandarin imperative sentences in popular media can serve as a valuable resource in understanding communication strategies, pragmatic functions, and sociocultural context in language use.
