Abstract

Reporting verbs are essential in academic writing because they help convey the writer's stance, attitude, and relationship with the reader, as highlighted in corpus-based research. This research was a corpus-based study that investigated the use of reporting verbs in applied linguistics journal articles published between 2020 and 2024. The main objectives were to identify the categories of reporting verbs used in the articles and determine the most frequently used categories within this period. This research applied a corpus linguistic technique, which used quantitative methods. The study specifically focuses on the frequency of reporting verbs in journal articles published within the selected time period. A corpus of 316 articles from the Indonesian Journal of Applied Linguistics was used as a data for the analysis. The data was processed using the software tool AntConc 4.2.0, which allowed for a detailed examination of the reporting verb frequencies and their categorization. The results revealed that Discourse Acts were the most frequently used reporting verbs, followed by Research Acts and Cognition Acts. Within the Discourse Acts category, the "certainty" subcategory emerged as the most prevalent.

Abstract

This study investigates University students' perceptions of the machine translation tool DeepL in the context of learning English as Foreign Language (EFL). The main objective was to explore the frequency of use with the tool through the TAM Theory. Using a descriptive qualitative research approach, the purpose of sampling was used to select four university EFL students, who were categorized as frequent and infrequent users of DeepL. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires. The results showed that frequent users of DeepL appreciated its effectiveness in vocabulary acquisition, translation accuracy, and academic writing support. In contrast, infrequent users expressed concerns about limitations such as the lack of a paraphrasing feature and the formality issues. These findings highlight significant differences in user experience based on frequency of use and the need for further research with larger and more diverse samples to validate these results. Recommendations for future research include incorporating feedback from users to improve functionality and meet the evolving needs of EFL learners. This research contributes to the understanding of the role of machine translation technology in language learning and offers insights for future research.

Abstract

E-portfolios are increasingly utilized in Indonesian higher education, aligning with the "Merdeka Belajar" initiative. However, limited research explores the qualitative experiences of EFL students navigating the challenges of digital writing within this context. This study addresses this gap by investigating the difficulties encountered by undergraduate students at Mulawarman University when writing e-portfolios using Google Sites. The research employed a qualitative narrative inquiry study approach, involving in-depth interviews with three sixth-semester students and analysis of their e-portfolio submissions. Key findings revealed significant challenges related to organizational structure, writing requirements, complex writing tasks (particularly analytical and reflective writing), grammar concerns and vocabulary limitations. Students employed various coping strategies, including AI assistance, online tools, online resources, and peer feedback. The implications of this study highlight the need for educators to provide explicit guidance on e-portfolio design, address specific writing challenges, and support students in effectively utilizing digital tools for academic writing. Further research could expand the sample size for broader generalizability also explore the impact of targeted pedagogical interventions across different platforms and learning contexts.
