Abstract

One of the reasons for the success of the teaching and learning process in the classroom is the teacher's belief system. Belief guides one’s thinking, action, and understanding of events. The level of beliefs in the teaching process needs to be probed before teachers critically manifest their teaching practices and facilitate outcome changes. In Indonesia, the independent curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka), which was regulated in 2022, directs the teaching English since elementary school. The present study aims to assess the teachers' belief system in teaching English to elementary school students as the “Kurikulum Merdeka”implementation spirit. The study involved 32 English teachers. The questionnaire assessed the teachers' beliefs about teaching English to elementary school students in 3 areas: the nature of children's English development, methods and techniques, and self-efficacy. There was also 1 open-ended question addressed to teachers to investigate their level of beliefs in teaching English among elementary school students. Data analysis is described in the form of descriptive statistics, independent t-test analysis, and content analysis. The results of this study indicate that the international school environment has a better level of belief than the national-plus school. Meanwhile, there was no difference in the level of belief in teaching among teachers with different educational backgrounds when they were in college.

Abstract

This study investigates the urgency of finding innovative and effective methods to improve students' listening skills in English, a critical component of language learning often hindered by a lack of engaging resources. The research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of audio podcasts in addressing this challenge and enhancing students' listening comprehension. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 25 students who participated in a pretest-posttest framework. The intervention included regular exposure to audio podcasts specifically designed to improve listening skills. Data were collected through pretest and posttest scores, along with an analysis of student feedback. The results revealed a significant improvement in students' listening abilities, with the average posttest score increasing from 51.76 to 63.63. Furthermore, 13 out of 25 students achieved the KKM score, a substantial increase from only one student in the pretest. This study underscores the potential of audio podcasts as an engaging and accessible tool for language learning. By demonstrating their effectiveness in enhancing listening comprehension and student engagement, the research highlights the practicality of incorporating podcasts into language teaching as an alternative to traditional methods. These findings emphasize the urgency of integrating innovative tools like podcasts to make listening practice both enjoyable and impactful in modern language education.

Abstract

In contemporary democratic societies, political apologies have evolved into strategic rhetorical acts used by state leaders to manage public perception, repair moral standing, and reinforce political values. In Indonesia, President Joko Widodo’s public apology near the end of his presidency attracted widespread attention and provoked discourse about its underlying ideological motives. Rather than a spontaneous expression of regret, the apology appeared to be a calculated act of political communication, shaped by cultural values and designed to influence the public’s perception of his leadership. This study aims to uncover the ideological tendencies embedded in Jokowi’s apology by analyzing how the apology is represented in two prominent English-language newspapers in Indonesia, The Jakarta Post (TJP) and The Jakarta Globe (TJG). It seeks to determine how transitivity choices in the language are used to convey deeper political and cultural meanings. Employing a qualitative research design supported by quantitative content analysis, the study integrates Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Halliday's Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), particularly the transitivity framework, to examine 43 clauses extracted from news articles published in TJP and TJG. The transitivity analysis reveals that material processes dominate the discourse (40.5%), followed by mental (25.5%) and verbal (23.2%) processes. In terms of participant roles, Actor and Sayer occur most frequently, indicating that Jokowi strategically presented himself as an active doer and a sincere speaker. These linguistic patterns suggest a deliberate construction of identity, emphasizing responsibility, empathy, and leadership. The analysis further shows how Jokowi's apology aligns with Javanese cultural ideals of humility and Islamic values of repentance, which are embedded in Indonesian socio-political discourse. The findings contribute to a broader understanding of how political apologies are not only personal but also ideological acts embedded in media discourse. This study highlights the usefulness of integrating CDA and SFL in uncovering how language functions to maintain power, shape public memory, and preserve political legitimacy in post-presidency contexts. It also underscores the cultural specificity of apology strategies in Indonesia, suggesting that future discourse studies consider local traditions and values when analyzing political speech.

Abstract

Media discourse plays an important role in constructing and disseminating ideological meanings, particularly in political reporting, where language is used to represent social actors and political events from specific perspectives. This study investigates the ideological stance underlying news reports on the United States government's and politicians' reactions to the capture of Nicolás Maduro, as reported in The Guardian Online Newspaper. The study employs Martin and White's (2005) Appraisal Theory, focusing on the Attitude subsystem, in conjunction with Fairclough's (1995) Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) framework. The data consist of three news reports published by The Guardian on January 3 and 4, 2026, totaling 1,567 words. The analysis examines how evaluative language is utilized to construct particular representations of social actors and political actions. The findings reveal that The Guardian predominantly employs negative evaluative polarity and frequently expresses attitudes through indirect invocation, in which evaluative meanings are implied and subsequently reinforced through quoted statements. The United States government and politicians are primarily positioned as the appraisers and active social actors, whereas Nicolás Maduro is predominantly represented as the appraised social actor. The study further demonstrates that the news reports construct the capture of Maduro as a protective and legitimate action associated with concerns over security and anti-drug enforcement. Through these evaluative patterns, the newspaper reflects and reproduces particular ideological perspectives regarding the political event. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how media discourse utilizes evaluative language to shape ideological representations in contemporary political reporting.
