Abstract

While there have been several studies reporting teachers’ teaching practices for students with special needs, the inquiry on teachers’ motivation in the realms of Indonesian special education and English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching on the basis of their vision on themselves, consisting of their ideal, ought-to, and feared language teacher selves is still lacking in literature. Motivation has been arguably a crucial factor in the teaching-learning dynamics. This study aims to dissect two Indonesian special school teachers’ motivation in teaching EFL to students with special educational needs (SEN) as it potentially drives them to develop professionally. This study, then, is executed as a narrative inquiry by amassing data from two Indonesian female special school teachers through interviews. The discoveries exhibit several elements which might motivate Indonesian special school teachers to teach EFL to students with SEN, encompassing (1) inspirations beyond educational environments, (2) adjustments to the curriculum, and (3) misalignments between the nationally administered curriculum and their teaching implementation. The aforementioned elements also accentuate how the diverse needs of students with SEN influence teacher motivation. In light to the inquiry, several recommendations are proposed for further studies.

Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study aiming to analyze analytical expositions written by tertiary Indonesian EFL students using transitivity system of systemic functional linguistics (SFL). The texts were created by nine students of English Language Education Study Program cohort 2024 at a state university in West Java, Indonesia, for the course of Reading and Writing for Academic Purposes. This study employed a qualitative case study with data obtained from the text analysis and a questionnaire distributed at the end of the course. The results of the analysis demonstrate that the students employed all six processes throughout the texts, namely material, relational, verbal, and mental processes, which were relevant to the linguistic features of an analytical exposition. Noteworthy cases in this study are students’ choices of process type for thesis statement and its placement, manners of utilizing verbal process as arguments, and alignments of process types between thesis and its restatement. The data from the questionnaire also supported the text analysis. In light to the findings, a recommendation is proposed for more exploration involving more participants, longer time, academic text types, and all systems of grammar in SFL.
