Abstract

The sociolinguistic communicative competence idea pertains to an individual's ability to proficiently comprehend, produce, and use language in a way that is congruent with the particular situation. Therefore, it is important to thoroughly examine the students' level of competency while they participate in classroom activities, especially throughout the process of engaging in conversations. The present study was carried out at Pascasarjana UNM, including a sample of English graduate students in their third semester. A single class consisted of a total of 25 pupils. The researcher used a discourse analysis methodology to examine and interpret the collected data. A comprehensive collection of six recordings was undertaken to document the students interactions throughout class, supplemented by an additional five recordings derived from the interview segments. Subsequently, the transcriptions underwent meticulous scrutiny and analysis, with a specific emphasis on the student’s sociolinguistic proficiency as outlined by Sato & McNamara (2019) in the context of speech actions. The findings unearthed a diverse array of sociolinguistic communicative ability among graduate students, including assertive force, directive force, commissive force, and expressive force. The students used their abilities to embrace their classmates, provide crucial information, inquire, articulate expectations, provide ideas, and condense the subject. Through the analysis of the functions, it was determined that students mostly used a directed approach, characterized by their reliance on questioning. This method was used 67 times, representing 28% of the overall usage. By comprehending the communication patterns of students, instructors may customize their approach and pinpoint efficacious learning tactics for each person.

Abstract

The main goal of this community service program targets the enhancement of English language abilities among Pinrang Regency's elementary school teaching staff through training methods based on communication. Intensive one-week training under this program implements practice-focused training methods through storytelling sessions, role-play activities and digital media applications. The program conducts a competence evaluation for teachers before implementing training programs meant to enhance their speech proficiency and interactive English teaching techniques. The training data reveals higher English usage motivation and consciousness among teachers yet multiple learning execution obstacles persist. Three key challenges emerge from teachers' restricted language skills and insufficient social contact with the English language and their lack of practical experience with classroom interactive teaching methods. The utilization obstacles of technology along with lack of support within the professional community work as important factors which diminish the effectiveness of this training approach. A lasting solution is necessary to enhance the English teaching capabilities of elementary teachers according to the findings of this program. Follow-up sessions and mentoring along with developing a professional community need to support the delivery of effective teaching methods which start from short-term training. Bilingual pedagogy strategies enable teachers to implement English gradually during their lessons. Participation from different organizations would enable improved English teaching quality at elementary schools to operate at its best potential.

Abstract

This paper discusses how intercultural competence can be incorporated into the English as a business instruction in Indonesia, where the current methods of teaching still put a great emphasis on grammar and language accuracy. The research, qualitative and based on literature, resorts to sociocultural and sociolinguistic theories to examine the way in which language should be viewed not only as a communicative means, but also as a means of cultural negotiation. The findings confirm three major observations: first, the current curricula lacks sufficient coverage of cultural aspects of communication; second, experiential techniques of learning (role plays and case studies) are necessary to develop the ability to change and be interculturally sensitive; and third, institutional and policy-level support is necessary to maintain a significant change. One of the conclusions of the study is that linguistic proficiency cannot on its own guarantee success in global business situations. Rather, intercultural competence, defined as capacity to decode cultural messages, cope with uncertainty, and relate ethically to divergent thinking, should be made the core of business English teaching in Indonesia.
