Abstract. CPD program mandated by the government becomes a means to improve teachers’ as well as students’ quality. CPD consists of self-development, scientific publication, and innovative work activities. The objectives of this study were to find out the types of CPD activities undertaken by the senior high school teachers of English in Palembang, the teachers' perception of CPD, and the challenges faced by the teachers in improving their professionalism through CPD program. This qualitative study employed a case study design. Questionnaires, interview, and documentation were used to collect the data. This study applied two questionnaires. The first questionnaire was used to obtain data about the types of teachers' CPD activities and its data were analyzed qualitatively. The second questionnaire in the form of a Likert scale was used to determine the teachers' perceptions of CPD and its data were analyzed descriptively. The data of the interview was analyzed using thematic analysis. Some copy of teachers’ CPD activities certificates were also used as proof of the teachers’ participation in the CPD program. The results indicated that the teachers had undertaken self-development and scientific publication activities. They had good perception of CPD and perceived it as activities to make them become more effective teachers. However, tight teaching schedules, family constraints, limited funds, and limited opportunities to participate in CPD activities become the challenges that the teachers had to face.Keywords: Continuing Professional Development (CPD), senior high school teachers, teachers of English

Abstract

Abstract. The global pandemic of COVID-19 has a direct impact on educational setting, schools and universities finally have to use an online platform as a way out. This present research aims to analyse EFL students’ and teachers’ perception on their online learning during the outbreak using metaphoric words. A questionnaire using metaphor analysis concept was distributed online to 55 students and 14 teachers at one private university in Indonesia. Data coding was done through qualitative analysis software, NVivo 12 Plus. Results show that EFL students and teachers have various metaphoric entailments to describe their perceptions. Three major metaphoric words used by students were related to hobby, game, and food for 11 coding references respectively, whereas for teachers the metaphoric used were hobby (4 coding references); game (3 coding references); relationship (2 coding references), others was in small distribution. Derived from the metaphoric words used by the students and teachers, the nuance can be drawn into their perspectives towards the online learning. The results also revealed that EFL students perceived online learning negatively; whereas, teachers were mostly in a neutral position towards their online teaching. This study has shed a light that this pandemic has essentially shown that in the future educational curriculum, particularly in EFL context, online learning activities should be made a part of ELT class.Keywords : COVID-19, Online Learning, EFL Learners, Metaphor Analysis

Abstract

Without a topic, conversation will not occur. However, the choice of conversation topic also needs to be considered, especially if the speech partner is a speaker with a different cultural and linguistic background. This study aimed to identify what conversation topics are raised by Indonesian-speaking Japanese learners in conversations with contact situations at the first meeting. The participants of this study were divided into male and female participants. The data was taken through roleplay conversation with the participants being 20 Indonesian speaking students and 20 Japanese speaking students. Roleplay conversations were carried out in two different settings, namely the setting of cultural exchange events at universities in Indonesia and the setting of conversations on trains in Indonesia. From the results of data analysis, it is known that for both male and female Indonesian speakers, both in the setting of cultural exchange events at universities in Indonesia and meetings on trains in Indonesia, the category of conversation topics that is most often raised is the category of personal information of the speakers and speech partners and categories of Indonesian and Japanese cultures and situations. Seeing these results, it can be concluded that both male and female Indonesian speakers have a greater desire to build deeper interpersonal relationships with Japanese speakers. This information was known from the fact that there were many occurrences of topics related to extracting information related to speech partners in all conversation groups.

Abstract

Abstract. This research aims at investigating the translation of the transitivity system of Madura tourism texts from Indonesian as the Source Text (ST) into English as the Target Text (TT). Besides, this also purposes to study how the transitivity as the representation of experiential meaning in tourism texts is realized and translated. The method used in this research is qualitative descriptive, while the data were taken from tourism texts of promotional media in Madura. Accordingly, Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) is pondered as a tool to identify the transitivity system and its translation of tourism promotion media in Madura. This study shows that the transitivity in tourism texts is translated differently which results in the realization of experiential meaning expression between ST and TT. Most of the experiential meaning in ST are realized with the relational process and as well as in the TT. Transposition and modulation in terms of translation technique also influence the differences of the understanding of readers (tourists) to the object promoted in Madura. Therefore, the process and participant in the transitivity system found ST and TT also generates the dissimilarities interpretation of experiential meaning and point of view in Indonesian tourism texts and its English translation. Keywords: transitivity; translation; tourism texts

Abstract

Abstract. Chinese language education is becoming popular in the world, including in Indonesia. Since the end of the New Order government in 1999 and the establishment of the strategic partnership between Indonesia and China in 2005, more and more Indonesians are starting to learn Chinese. Apart from being a foreign language, Chinese is also considered as a heritage language for Chinese Indonesian. With the increasing interest in learning Chinese, trilingual schools that offer Chinese, English, and Indonesian language learning have started to appear in various cities in Indonesia, including in Surabaya. Within the context of trilingual schools, this study uses a qualitative method to explore family language policy (FLP), related to multilingualism and the efforts to preserve the heritage language, in the Surabaya Chinese family. Data were obtained by interviewing eight participants who are parents of trilingual school students from various levels of education: kindergarten, elementary and secondary school. Three core components of FLP, namely: language ideology, language management, and language practice were used as guidance to code the interview data. We found that the language ideology of the parents is linked with the global and economic value of the language and the imagined multilingual person they hope their children to be. The parents consider English and Chinese as the important languages in relation to today’s globalized world. They imagine their children to be multilingual persons who have the necessary linguistic capital for communicating transnationally. But, due to the lack of Chinese and English language skills of the parents, the language practice at home is rather limited to the Indonesian language. They still rely heavily on trilingual schools to provide a language environment and linguistic capital of English and Chinese language. Although parents’ language ideology is supportive of their children being multilingual, it turns out that trilingual schools have a fairly important and central role in forming multilingualism in children.Keywords: family language policy, trilingual schools, Chinese Indonesians
