<![CDATA[This paper discusses how tasks and activities in collaborative EFL learning promote learners’ confidence and belief system to perform better in their productive skills of English especially ‘speaking’. It is generally believed that learners’ lack of confidence is the main constraint when ‘speaking’ becomes the objective of an EFL lesson in addition to their lack of vocabulary and knowledge of grammar rules. Furthermore, belief system that they share as EFL learners plays crucial roles in shaping all the elements that contribute to success in EFL learning. This paper reveals (1) how tasks and activities developed by teachers at some universities in South Sulawesi build EFL learners’ confidence in speaking, and (2) how those teachers involved direct the EFL learners’ belief system to optimize the grab of English as a foreign language, the language that is believed to assist them realize their expectation to gain at least one of the widely offered scholarships, and (3) How topics of interest enhance learners’ participation in classroom that leads to success in language learning. Taking 124 students and 4 teachers from 4 universities comprising 4 classes as participants, and by utilizing several instruments such as questionnaire, interview, classroom observation and stimulated-recall, this pure qualitative study claims that teachers’ role in practicing their pre-developed activities along with the implementation of collaborative learning has greatly assisted the learners to develop stronger self- confidence and strengthen their belief system about their capability in EFL learning, especially speaking. It is also revealed that topic of interest is an essential teaching aspect which raises the awareness of the learners about the power of their metacognitive strategies in learning a second language.]]>

<![CDATA[Although extensive research has been carried out on university students’ online learning readiness, very little attention has been paid to online learning readiness of foreign language learners. Examining the learners' readiness get involved in online learning becomes more fundamental to conduct in this current Covid-19 pandemic since online learning is the only alternative to run educational programs at every level. This study set out to investigate the construct validity of a scale to measure EFL learners' readiness in online learning during covid-19 pandemic. The scale was construdted based on the theories underlying students readiness in online learning. Both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to empirically validate the scale. A total of 682 undergraduate students from seven universities in Indonesia participated in the study by completing in the google form-based scale. The results of the study showed that the scale comprised of 24 items that converged into a five-latent factor with an acceptable fit. These results are expected to be a consideration basis in planning, implementing, and evaluating EFL online learning programs in the Indonesia context.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Increasing tourists’ interest to visit museums can be accomplished through various promotional strategies. However, the Radya Pustaka Museum brochure falls short of successfully informing potential visitors about the museum's potency. Methodology: The brochure of Radya Pustaka Museum was first studied. Four locals were asked to review the brochure for naturalness and clarity. An open questionnaire was used, in which the respondents marked the expressions they perceived were unnatural or difficult to comprehend. In using content analysis, the primary data were gathered from the Indonesian descriptive texts in the brochure. Findings: Some of the information in the previous brochure of the Radya Pustaka museum was vague and confusing. Grammar mistakes, the frequent use of local cultural words, and overly complex sentences are all factors that contribute to this problem. To begin, all the grammatical errors and typos must be fixed. The museum's name should no longer be miswritten. Capitalization should also be considered when writing names and address forms. Additionally, each sentence must start with a subject. Conclusion: The proposed new concept brochure of the Radya Pustaka Museum in Surakarta is projected to increase the locals' interest in having a museum that they are eager to visit. The Appraisal theory was discovered to be useful in assisting the museum with these efforts because it is conceptually similar to rhetorical devices that effectively produce a promotional medium or message to engage the locals in embracing the museum. Originality: This study attempts to get the picture of the link between rhetorical strategies and Appraisal resources, as never been previously done, and make the best use of them to attract locals’ desire in visiting Radya Pustaka Museum. Due to the small number of studies looking into rhetorical tactics in brochures, this research also intends to fill the gap to shed more light on how the strategies can serve as valuable resources in making intended effects more impactful in communication using brochures.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: As student teachers shift to preservice teachers during teaching practice, it is necessary to find out how teaching practice could shape their identity and position, especially in the EFL context where English is taught as a foreign language. Based on this purpose, this study seeks information on preservice teacher identity and position during teaching practice by taking discourse analysis lenses. Methodology: This study used descriptive research to describe EFL preservice teachers’ identity construction and position. Adopting Fairclough's (2013) theory relationship between language, power and social used as data analysis. An interview transcript was used to investigate the meaning behind the spoken text of two EFL preservice teachers. Findings: The finding found they shared similar identity construction across two different contexts where preservice teachers conduct their teaching practice. Starting as a student at university and transferring to school as a teacher made them construct a new identity after several times teaching students and positioned themselves in school by participating in several activities. Conclusion: It found that positioning oneself could influence the identity development of preservice teachers. However, the unexpected condition that forced them to teach online made them feel less than a teacher and try to get an identity recognized by the environment by positioning themselves in the school context. Originality: In contrast to earlier studies that investigated the anxiety of preservice EFL students, this study focused on describing how EFL preservice teachers' identity construction related to the position assigned to them in the real classroom setting.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Dubbing is an interesting translation for movie viewers because viewers do not need to be constrained by reading the subtitling on the monitor. However, with all its limitations dubbing is a challenge for a translator. Frozen: Party is over is an intriguing film to investigate. Methodology: All utterances of the characters in the film are becoming the research data. The numbers of data were 62 for words, phrases and sentences and analyzed using Molina & Albir's translation theory. The interactive model of Miles and Huberman analyzed all the data. Findings: The result of the research is that the translation techniques used by the translator were modulation, established equivalent and literal. The most dominant technique used by the translator was literal. This is because children consume the film, so most of the sentences are simple sentences. Conclusion: The translation techniques used by the translator were modulation, established equivalent and literal. Originality: This research focused on the dubbing translation technique for the animated film Frozen: Party is over. In comparison, other research with the same object discussed topics such as deixis, language styles, illocutionary act and subtitling.]]>
