Abstract

It has become a tradition that any musician who wins an award delivers a speech to acknowledge those who contributed to the award’s success. This has led to the emergence of Awards Acceptance Speeches (AASs). Despite the recent popularity of genre analysis on professional genres, AASs as a genre, have not been researched, especially in the Ghanaian context. To this end, this paper sought to examine the generic structure of the AASs of Ghanaian musicians in the 22nd Vodafone Ghana Music Awards Ceremony. 20 AASs were sampled for the study. The study adopted Swales’ (1990) approach to move analysis, focusing on the generic structure. The analysis revealed that Thanking move was the most frequent. A 6 move-structure was identified. The study concluded with implications for successful acculturation of musicians and other entertainment industry players in their discourse communities and recommendations for further studies.

Abstract

Competence in a certain language including correct spelling is very crucial for successful communication. Spelling mistakes may convey a totally different message and cause disastrous consequences. This study investigates the frequency of spelling mistakes in the writing of preparatory year engineering students at King AbdulAziz University. The researchers prepared three main questions related to reasons behind spelling mistakes, suggested solutions and the impact of an eclectic training program on students’ ability to minimize their spelling mistakes. They interviewed five instructors and five students and made the students write five essays about topics related to their IE200 course after receiving a training course. The findings of the study revealed determination and seriousness on the part of instructors and students to eliminate this dilemma. This was very clear in their diagnoses of the problem and their suggestions for minimizing the spelling mistakes. The study recommended giving more attention to spelling mistakes and doing more research with a bigger sample and over a longer time.

Abstract

Northern Irish author, Anna Burns’ Man Booker Prize (2018) winning novel Milkman presents a narrative textured with multifarious considerations ranging from subjectivity, gender, politics, power, language, and religion to anything a reader may logically connect it with. One of its most noticeable features is the narrator’s not explicitly stating the unspeakable rage searing herself and the society as a whole, which is obvious in the syntactic, lexical, intonational and tonal treatments, and her not clearly revealing the identities of the characters. Researcher regard these aspects of the narrative open to myriad interpretations of which I would like to use the feminist post-structuralist view to fathom the novel in its profoundness. I intend to unravel the stereotyped gender and subjectivity features of feminist poststructuralism in the novel, which hinge upon the social mechanism, lived experiences, and language and power relations both directly and indirectly portrayed in the narrative.

The problems raised when students started to put words on paper, students forgot their storytelling abilities: students couldn’t think of topics; omitted relevant details, but go on and on about irrelevant ones; their dialogue was bland; couldn’t figure out how to start and how to end. Grammar and vocabulary were mostly performed in writing activities, most teachers used 50-minute time allocations for writing practices and pictures to pictures model was mostly adopted by teachers.

Abstract

Amidst the existential crisis in contemporary society, young individuals worldwide find themselves susceptible to self-inflicted harm or even self-destruction in response to their psychological ruptures and injuries, while lacking the requisite self-awareness and the patience to persevere on the journey of self-understanding. In this article, we draw upon Rosenblatt’s (1995) notion of Literature as Exploration to propound a text-to-self pedagogical approach to reading Haruki Murakami and Can Xue and to teaching contemporary existentialist literature. Comprising three strategies, namely The Art World in My Eyes, The Mind Film, and The Literary Conversation, this approach encourages students to engage deeply with the portrayal of death in the writers’ flagship novels that view death as an unwavering companion to young individuals’ life journey and growth. Based on Rosenblatt (1995), the three strategies, and our survey-based analysis of 2,000 Vietnamese high school students’ existential perceptions, we propose a model for literature instruction through promoting students’ transition from literary interpretations to self-discovery and self-realization of death associated with the existential crisis. This four-stage model, we expect, will get students poised to reconcile with their lost, solitary, and vulnerable ego, actively befriend their ‘inner child’, and develop into individuals with healed hearts and positive worldviews.

Abstract

This research aimed to find out the quality of the educational videos and the quality of vocabulary teaching contents taught on the TikTok account. This research conducted online, on the TikTok account @jagobahasa.com. These data sources are limited to vocabulary teaching videos posted within the last three years. The researcher selected video samples randomly with the existing criteria. The criteria used to assess the quality were theories by Brame and Lopez. The study revealed that elements in the video showed a significant match against the criteria of educational video and criteria for vocabulary teaching contents. The educational videos provided cognitive load, student engagement and active learning. Meanwhile, the quality of the vocabulary teaching contents taught was nearly comprehensive, including teaching vocabulary of frequency, range, availability and expediency, learnability, and cultural factors. However, for the use of guiding questions, making videos as homework, and specific needs or interests of learners were not available.

Abstract

This case study delves into the portrait of English language students from Indonesia and Thailand in their learning approaches. With the increasing importance of English as a global language. This has led to a shift in how students approach learning the language, particularly in non-English speaking countries, focusing on Indonesian and Thai students who study in the English Department of the Islamic University of Malang. The study seeks to understand how students in Indonesia and Thailand have transformed their learning approaches to adapt to the demands of their academic and social environments. To gather data, the study employed qualitative interviews and observations of students in their natural settings. The study found that students in Indonesia and Thailand have developed a range of innovative approaches to learning English that goes beyond traditional classroom methods. The results indicate that these students employ a combination of approaches, including the use of technology, peer learning, and self-directed learning. The students are also motivated and committed to learning the language, which is essential in developing their proficiency in English. The findings suggest that a combination of motivation, commitment, and experimentation with different strategies and techniques is necessary for effective language learning.

Abstract

Deciphering the signals in a movie trailer is undertaken to comprehend how viewers or learners receive the conveyed meanings. The objective of this study is to (1) analyze the symbols present in the "Confession of a Shopaholic" movie trailer and (2) disclose the description of denotation, connotation and myth in the “Confession of a Shopaholic” movie trailer. The primary dataset for this study was the trailer for the film 'Confession of a Shopaholic'. This study employed Roland Barthes' theoretical framework to analyze and establish connections between the signs and the narrative of the trailer. The use of the Barthes approach facilitates the examination of dynamic communication in audio-visual content, and a semiotic analysis was conducted to accomplish the predetermined goals of this study. The research identified a total of six pieces of data included in the trailer and provided detailed explanations of their denotation, connotation, and mythological significance. The study of signals and myths in this research aims to bridge the gap between the established framework and other audio-visual media. Although signals in other domains are important as well, it is highly recommended to do a more comprehensive analysis just on movie trailer outcomes for comparative purposes.
