Abstract

Developing speaking proficiency is a critical goal for students in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) programs, as effective oral communication skills are essential for their future professional success. This literature review aims to synthesize existing research on assessing and enhancing speaking proficiency among ESP students through various pedagogical approaches. The review explores three main themes: 1) the multifaceted nature of speaking proficiency for ESP students, encompassing linguistic competencies, pragmatic awareness, and intercultural communicative competence; 2) assessment methods for evaluating ESP students' speaking abilities, including standardized tests, performance-based assessments, and contextualized rubrics; and 3) pedagogical approaches for improving speaking skills, such as task-based language teaching, project-based learning, technology integration, and explicit instruction on pragmatics and discourse strategies. The literature review highlights the importance of aligning assessment practices and instructional methods with the specific communicative needs and target language use situations of ESP learners in their respective professional domains. By critically analyzing and synthesizing the findings from relevant studies, this review contributes to a deeper understanding of best practices for assessing and developing speaking proficiency in ESP contexts. Implications for curriculum design, teacher training, and future research directions are discussed, with the ultimate goal of better preparing ESP students to become effective and confident communicators in their chosen fields.

Abstract

Manager's language style plays a crucial role in influencing employee motivation and performance within an organization. This study aims to explore the relationship between manager's language style, motivation, and employee performance using a qualitative descriptive approach. By relying on existing literature and personal observations in the context of management, this study seeks to provide a deeper understanding of how manager's language style can impact employee perceptions of their motivation and performance. Through thematic analysis of relevant literature, several key themes have been identified, including the importance of clear and positive communication, the impact of motivating language on employee engagement, and the role of constructive feedback in enhancing performance. The findings from this study highlight the need for managers to strategically use language that fosters a positive and motivating work environment, which can ultimately lead to increased employee motivation and performance. Practical implications of this research include recommendations for managers to adopt more effective language styles and for organizations to provide appropriate communication training for their leaders. Although this study has limitations due to its reliance on secondary data sources, the resulting findings provide a strong foundation for further research on the role of language style in management.

Abstract

Abstract This study analyses visitor's interest and motivation at Setia Beach, Pulau Tello, South Nias Regency, and examines how their experiences and perceptions during the visit shape their visiting decisions. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied, involving five informants selected purposively. Data were collected through indepth interviews, field observation, and documentation, then analysed using Braun and Clarke's six phase thematic analysis. The findings show that visiting interest is formed by the natural beauty of the beach, curiosity about an unfamiliar destination, and recommendations from family and friends. Visitor motivation comprises push factors, namely the need for relaxation, escape from daily routines, and family togetherness, alongside pull factors, namely environmental authenticity, clear seawater, and low visitor density. Positive experiences and perceptions during the visit encourage revisit intention and willingness to recommend the destination to others. These results indicate that in early stage coastal destinations, attractiveness rests on environmental authenticity and tranquillity rather than on the built facilities and manufactured attractions typical of mature destinations. Managing Setia Beach should therefore prioritise environmental quality and basic amenities without compromising the authenticity that constitutes its principal appeal.Keywords: Coastal Destination; Push and Pull Factors; Revisit Intention; Thematic Analysis; Tourist Motivation AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis minat dan motivasi pengunjung Pantai Setia di Pulau Tello, Kabupaten Nias Selatan, serta memahami bagaimana pengalaman dan persepsi selama kunjungan memengaruhi keputusan berkunjung mereka. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan lima informan yang dipilih secara purposif. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis dengan analisis tematik enam tahap Braun dan Clarke. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa minat berkunjung terbentuk dari keindahan alam pantai, rasa ingin tahu terhadap destinasi baru, serta rekomendasi keluarga dan teman. Motivasi pengunjung tersusun atas faktor pendorong berupa kebutuhan relaksasi, pelarian dari rutinitas, dan kebersamaan keluarga, serta faktor penarik berupa keaslian alam, kejernihan air laut, dan rendahnya kepadatan pengunjung. Pengalaman dan persepsi positif selama kunjungan mendorong niat berkunjung kembali sekaligus kesediaan merekomendasikan destinasi kepada orang lain. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa pada destinasi pesisir tahap awal, daya tarik bertumpu pada keaslian lingkungan dan suasana tenang, bukan pada fasilitas dan atraksi buatan sebagaimana lazim ditemukan pada destinasi yang telah matang. Karena itu, pengelolaan Pantai Setia perlu memprioritaskan penjagaan kualitas lingkungan dan penyediaan fasilitas dasar tanpa mengorbankan keaslian yang menjadi daya tarik utamanya.Kata Kunci: Analisis Tematik; Destinasi Pesisir; Faktor Pendorong dan Penarik; Motivasi Wisatawan; Niat Berkunjung
