Abstract

This research is entitled Process Types on Students' Persuasive Text: A Systemic Functional Linguistics Study. The purpose of this research is to find out (1) what types of transitivity processes are found in student persuasion texts; and (2) what processes appear most dominant in the text. The theory used in this research is the Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) theory which refers to the thinking of Halliday (2014). The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method. The data obtained was based on the results of students' persuasive writing with the title "How to keep ourselves healthy inside and outside". The research results showed that there were 5 types of processes found, namely Material Process (36,7%), Relational Process (23,5%), Mental Process (17,6%), Behavioral Process (14,7%) and Existential Process (7,3%). There was no verbal process found in the persuasive text. Of the five processes, material process is the type of process that appears most dominantly.

Abstract

Accomplishment in higher education recently depends on the ability to communicate effectively in English; due to increasingly globalized academic setting. This essay investigates the creative ways that speaking technology and cross-language exercises might be combined to improve students' proficiency in English communication. By utilizing students' current linguistic resources, cross-language practices, which entail the purposeful use of different languages, can promote deeper comprehension and retention of English language abilities. When combined with cutting-edge speaking technology, such AI-driven language learning tools and speech recognition software, these approaches provide a dynamic and engaging means of honing English communication skills. With a focus on practical application in academic and professional contexts, the study investigates the effects of these combined techniques on students' language proficiency. This research is a comparable passage that has been adjusted for the study's setting. The study involved 45 students from different academic disciplines, 60% of whom were female and 40% of whom were male, and used a sequential explanatory mixed-method approach to investigate their views and experiences about cross-language practices in combination with speaking technology. Surveys, pre- and post-speaking evaluations for descriptive analysis, and reflective notebooks for qualitative insights were all used in the data collection process. The study of descriptive data was done using theme analysis. As evidenced by the overwhelmingly favorable response from participants, the data showed that integrating student languages alongside English, backed by speaking technology, dramatically increased their English communication skills.
