Abstract

This study aims to analyze code-switching in an episode of Diary Misteri Sara, a program featured on Sara Wijayanto’s YouTube channel, specifically the episode involving Cindy Kaza and Mongol Stress. The primary objective is to identify the types and functions of code-switching present in the interactions between the Diary Misteri Sara team and their collaborators. Employing a qualitative approach, the analysis draws on Stockwell’s classification of code-switching types and Gumperz’s framework for its functions. A total of 218 instances of code-switching were identified, comprising tag switching (24 instances, 10.55%), inter-sentential switching (41 instances, 18.81%), and intra-sentential switching (154 instances, 70.64%). In terms of function, six categories were found: quotation (2 instances, 0.92%), addressee specification (32 instances, 14.68%), interjection (23 instances, 10.55%), reiteration (22 instances, 10.09%), message qualification (26 instances, 11.93%), and personalization versus objectification (113 instances, 51.83%). The results indicate that intra-sentential switching is the most frequently used type, while personalization versus objectification is the most dominant function. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the patterns and communicative roles of code-switching in multilingual interactions within digital media contexts.

Abstract

Enhancing EFL Vocabulary Mastery via Wordwall.net: A Mixed-Methods Study on Achievement and Student Challenges. Objective: This study explores Wordwall.net, an online learning platform, to enhance students' English vocabulary and identify the challenges they encounter. Methods: This study employed a mixed-methods approach, involving twenty-five students from the Grade X Pharmacy Department at SMK YPKK 1 Sleman. The study aimed to gather quantitative data (pre-tests and post-tests) to measure vocabulary mastery, including spelling dictation, word translation, and collocation in sentences. Meanwhile, semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather qualitative data on the challenges of using the platform from six students, using purposive sampling. The data were analyzed using Miles & Huberman's interactive model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Findings: The results show a significant improvement in vocabulary mastery, with the average score increasing from 55.76 in the pre-test to 87 in the post-test. Moreover, Wordwall.net has the potential to enhance vocabulary and student engagement. However, students encountered challenges, including competitive pressure and unstable internet connections. Conclusion: These findings have significant implications for language teachers, school administrators, and curriculum developers, underscoring the importance of effectively integrating digital platforms. Additionally, policymakers should consider enhancing digital infrastructure in schools to ensure equitable access to online learning resources. The findings suggest that classroom teachers can effectively integrate Wordwall.net to enhance vocabulary mastery, boost motivation, and make learning more engaging. For institutions, this highlights the importance of providing digital infrastructure and training teachers in using web-based platforms. School administrators and policymakers should also support equitable access to reliable internet to ensure consistent learning outcomes. Keywords: challenge, vocabulary mastery, word wall, web-based learning.

Abstract

This qualitative study applies J.L. Austin's Speech Act Theory to analyze Chris Rock’s stand-up comedy show Selective Outrage. It focuses on identifying types of speech acts (locutionary, illocutionary, perlocutionary) and determining which illocutionary acts are most dominant. Data were collected through observation and note-taking, then analyzed using three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The results show that representative speech acts are the most dominant (44%), followed by expressive (35%), declarative (12%), directive (7%), and commissive (2%). This study offers insights into the use of speech acts in stand-up comedy and provides a deeper understanding of Chris Rock’s comedic style and communication strategies.

Abstract

Professional development for educators was crucial to ensure quality teaching and improved student learning outcomes. This study aimed to explore how an English lecturer at Universitas Teknologi Yogyakarta (UTY) participated in the Teacher Professional Program (TPD) program and implemented the knowledge gained into her teaching practice. This study used a qualitative case study approach, which involved one English lecturer who was selected based on criteria such as teaching experience and active participation in TPD activities. The questions were sent to the respondent through a digital messaging platform and analysed using descriptive qualitative analysis and Miles & Huberman's (1994) interactive model. The findings revealed that the lecturer is actively involved in both internal and external TPD programs. Furthermore, the internal programs focused on general pedagogical skills, while external programs were more targeted at English Language Teaching (ELT). The lecturer implemented various strategies from the PD sessions, such as process-based writing instruction, structured peer feedback, and the use of digital tools. However, challenges include the generality of the training materials and the lack of structured follow-up support. The study concluded that quality TPD implementation requires individual motivation and institutional support. PD programs should not only provide relevant content, but also offer ongoing support. The study highlights the need for more targeted, reflective, and practical PD to ensure meaningful impact in the classroom

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technologies has transformed language learning practices, for instance, the use of DeepL translation tools for machine translation. It plays a growing role in facilitating comprehension, vocabulary development, and academic literacy among EFL learners. This study provides empirical evidence of how DeepL shapes students’ learning efficiency and translation strategies. This mixed-methods study explores the perceptions and challenges of 27 fourth-year English Language Education Study Program (ELESP) students at Universitas Teknologi Yogyakarta regarding DeepL as a translation tool in their language learning. Employing questionnaires and semi-structured interviews for data collection, the research gathered both quantitative and qualitative data. The questionnaire explored students' overall perceptions, while interviews delved into the specific challenges encountered by six selected students, using a purposive sampling technique across varying proficiency levels: two students with high proficiency, two students with medium proficiency, and two students with low proficiency, as indicated by the analyzed questionnaire scores. Furthermore, the researchers analyzed the questionnaire results through data checking, coding categories, and compared them across the highest, middle, and lowest categories, analyzing the results descriptively. Meanwhile, for the semi-structured interview, the results were analyzed using an interactive model, comprising data collection, data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. Findings indicate positive student perceptions. Quantitative analysis of questionnaire data revealed overwhelmingly positive perceptions, with 81.5% and 66.7% of students showing high agreement on key positive statements about DeepL's utility. However, the qualitative data reveal that all interviewed students face challenges, particularly the time-consuming process of double-checking translations due to the uncertainty of meaning. This study highlights DeepL's significant role in facilitating language learning while also underscoring the need for students to develop critical evaluation skills.
