Abstract

Personal learning environment (PLE) connects the formal and informal learning of the learners by utilizing both digital and non-digital tools. This concept is believed to be able to support the process of learning Scientific Writing because to construct an article is not enough relying on formal learning and a single tool provider. This paper reports the implementation as well as the tools used and impact of getting engaged in PLE for learning Scientific Writing. The research was conducted qualitatively in narrative inquiry analysis while the data was collected through observation, questionnaire and in-depth interview. The participant was a graduate student majoring English Education department having experienced making a scientific journal. The learner admitted that collaborating both digital and non-digital tools is very meaningful, however the use of digital tools apparently more efficient as supported by Reinders (2014) to support different aspects of the learning process. This study is beneficial for ELT classroom, specifically for academic writing class where Scientific Writing is one of mandatory subject being taught by the lecturer. The tools revealed in the finding can be references for EFL learners to be applied in constructing Scientific Writing.

Abstract

Millennial learners were born and raised in the digital era, with a variety of technology complete and sophisticated, such as: computer, laptop/notebook/netbook, smart Phone, iPads, PDA, MP3 player,  internet, and various other electronic devices. From childhood, they were familiar or introduced with the sophisticated gadgets that directly or indirectly influence their behavioral development and personality. Millennial generation has characteristics of behavior and personality that is different from previous generation. The attributes of millennial learners who grown up with technology may influence the current teaching strategy. In supporting the urgency of exploring the millennial learners’ attributes and needs in educational environment, the authors conduct a survey at Education Faculty of Universitas Muhammadiyah Parepare (UM Parepare), especially the learners who are majoring in English Education.The survey confirmed that those learners were exposed to various types of IT application. Some indications can be extracted from this study. Firstly, the learners were reasonably comfortable in utilizing various types of IT tools and expected the application to be embedded in the current application of learning. Secondly, the learners preferred to try to web in obtaining information, so the use of internet to access learning materials are highly needed. Last but not least, learners were mostly rated to adopt most ICT tools and devices.

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the linguistic items which act as hedges in political news interviews in relation to politicians’ gender, as well as to examine the pragmatic functions of these devices. Two transcripts of political news interviews of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trumph, randomly selected from CNN official website (see Appendix), were analyzed adopting Salager-Meyer’s (1997) taxonomy. The study revealed that the frequent used of hedging devices in the two interviews are modal auxiliaries, if clause, and introductory phrase. The most frequently used hedging device subcategory are the modal auxiliary “can”, “will”, “would”, and “should”. Whilst the used introductory phrase are “l think”, “l believe”, “l guess”, “as l said”, and “my understanding is that..”. The findings suggest that these hedging devices fulfill several pragmatic functions. Hedging devices is used by the two politicians to express indirectness, politeness, lack of commitment and probability. In relation to gender, the findings also reveal that the spread of hedging of the two politicians are similar

Abstract

This study has three aims: the first is to illuminate the transformation in the minds of the Japanese people after the catastrophic earthquake in 2011—namely, the collective movement to reappraise the worth of bonds and connections between/among people. The second is to show that the ongoing spiritual change has a number of similarities with the worldview of the Melanesian folk which Marilyn Strathern analysed with the concept of “dividual”. The third is to generalize diverse insights which the two cases suggest and thus to seek a fresh way to see people and those relations which bridge over them. The argument begins with a discussion to prove the point of the first aim, then the second, and, after referring to what is not dealt with for future research, concludes by demonstrating that of the third. The contribution which this study will make for interdisciplinary scholarship is that it attests a literary text and an anthropological study can be employed to derive a philosophical discourse.

Abstract

Conversational implicatures are  considered as a tool of indirect communication.  Through the researcher 's teaching experience,  it has been noticed that Yemeni  Arabic EFL College  learners are not sufficiently aware of the rules of the use of English and that often words and expressions convey messages above and beyond their literal meanings. This study examined the perception of English conversational implicatures among those learners. The method applied in this study was empirical analytical descriptive with a test and an interview. The subjects were 62 Yemeni Arabic EFL learners. A multiple choice discourse completion test and interview were used for collecting the study data. All the implicatures included in the test were taken from the study related literature, wheras most of test scenarios containing these implicatures were ready -made ones that the researcher came across throughout her reading. The test contains seven types of conversational implicature : Overstatement,  Deliberate Ambiguity,  Assertion, Indirect Refusal,  Disapproval, Indirect Criticism and  Indirect Requests. The results showed that Yemeni Arabic EFL College learners do face challenges in relation  to the interpretation of these seven conversational implicatures.

Abstract

The present study was undertaken based on an assumption that there is no full guarantee that the university-level students from English department could be easily successful in writing activities. This might be as a result of differences in individuals’ characteristics contributing to language learning process, and even better it has something to do with the so-called “Intelligence”. While some relevant studies concerned about the relationship between the students’ Multiple Intelligence profile and their ability in language learning, the current findings contradicted the findings that of researches. In relation with writing skill, some show a significant correlation, some found only partial correlation, and some illustrated insignificant correlation between the observed variables. To have a clearer picture as to this arguable issue, the present study’s aim was about to look into the relationship between multiple intelligences as a whole part and linguistic intelligence as a part of multiple intelligences, and writing performance of English department students in a state university. This study employed mix method and the instruments applied were MI Inventory, a writing scale adopted from IELTS writing task 2, and interview. A small number of students, 27 students, actively participated in this study, and the findings indicated that insignificant correlation existed between students’ writing performance and their MI profile as a whole part or as independent intelligence, namely linguistic intelligence.
