Abstract

The limited implementation of English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses in Indonesian vocational higher education highlights a critical gap, particularly for students of Computer Science. This study explores the design of an EAP syllabus tailored to the specific academic and professional needs of Computer Science students at Polytechnic Gorontalo, Indonesia. Grounded in established theories of EAP and needs analysis, including frameworks by Munby (1978), Hutchinson and Waters (1987), and Dudley-Evans and St John (1998), the research employed a mixed-methods approach, utilizing questionnaires and stakeholder interviews to investigate both target and learning needs. The findings reveal that students prioritize speaking skills, particularly in social interactions, oral presentations, and job interviews, followed by writing tasks related to advertising, academic work, and job applications. Reading and listening are also acknowledged as supporting skills for academic engagement. Based on these insights, a skills-based syllabus was developed, structured into thematic units across a semester, with performance-oriented assessment and both formative and summative evaluations. This study contributes to the discourse on localized EAP course design by offering a context-specific syllabus that addresses learners' communicative competence for academic and occupational success. The proposed model showcases originality in its integration of needs analysis with computer science content and underscores its applicability to vocational settings in similar EFL contexts. Keywords: EAP, Needs Analysis, Syllabus Design

Abstract

Growing scholarly attention to media discourse has stimulated increasing interest in the rhetorical organization of news texts. However, much of this research has focused on print journalism, leaving the structural dynamics of broadcast news, particularly disaster reporting, relatively underexplored despite its crucial role in communicating urgent information to the public. This study examines how disaster-related events are rhetorically structured and linguistically realized in broadcast television news. Drawing on a corpus of 23 disaster news reports produced by TVRI Sulawesi Tengah between 2024 and 2026, the study employs a corpus-assisted genre analysis to investigate the move structure and linguistic patterns that shape disaster news discourse. Using Hajimia et al.’s (2022) nine-move framework, the analysis first identifies the rhetorical moves that organize the reports and examines their distribution across the corpus. It then explores recurring linguistic patterns using AntConc to illustrate how these rhetorical functions are realized in the texts. The findings reveal that broadcast disaster news follows a relatively stable rhetorical structure centered on introducing the disaster event and elaborating its impacts and response actions. Move 1 (Title), Move 2 (Introducing the news lead), and Move 4 (Elaborating the event) emerge as the most obligatory components, while Submove 4b (Stating factual information) forms the core narrative element. These findings contribute to genre studies of media discourse and offer insights for journalism-related language instruction.
