Motivation plays important role that drives learning. The application of games for educational purposes can boost students’ motivation. Nowadays, the game utilizes technology which enables students to experience enjoyment in a more accessible way. However, some games are not suitable for students. Hence, gamification, i.e., the implementation of game elements in a non-game context, serves as a solution to motivate students. This study aims to investigate the effect of gamification on students’ motivation in learning English. A game-based student response (GBSR) is an example of gamification. The case study method comprised an intrinsic and extrinsic motivation scale and a semi-structured interview to investigate the effect of gamification on students’ motivation in learning English. The study involved 13 eleventh grade students consisting of 10 females and 3 males students. The result indicated that the students experienced competence, autonomy, and relatedness in GBSR which led to stronger intrinsic learning motivation. Besides, the features in the GBSR triggered students’ interest to play the game. The extrinsic motivation stimulated through the reward structure and endorsement of goals. Moreover, the classroom atmosphere became more enjoyable for students. These results serve an alternative way for teachers to teach English at the secondary level.

EFL students relatively attain learning experiences from activities they perform in the classroom. This article explored the stories of students’ learning experiences in a Thai EFL classroom and looked through their stories about learning experiences which contribute most to the improvement of their language skills. Four out of thirty grade-10th students in the English as Supplementary class at one of Demonstration Schools in Lopburi Thailand participated in this study. In eliciting the participants' stories, narrative inquiry was carried out as the design of this research. The data were collected through observations, interviews, and document analysis. Afterward, they were analyzed through thematic analysis. The first finding showed that there were 22 learning experiences attained by Thai students during the ES class which belonged to 1) eleven learning experiences for reading, 2) two learning experiences for writing, and 3) nine learning experiences for other skills. The second finding of students’ perceptions revealed that the most helpful learning activities in improving the students’ English skills were 1) reading fiction, 2) watching movies, and 3) reading and translation. These activities provided at least two significant learning experiences for the students, including 1) knowing more vocabularies and 2) working in a group. This study implies that studying learning experiences which promote the students’ language skill improvement is essential for English teachers to select or plan best learning experiences.

A qualitative approach as a basic framework was used in this research with a case study method. The participants of this research were 20 students of female and male. The data were taken with a questionnaire and interview. There were only three students involved in the interview session. The results show that most students gave positive perceptions of the use of English; understanding the explanation easily, feeling comfortable during the class, and enriching their vocabulary. This research can contribute to the policy-making of schools which intend to adopt a bilingual education program.

This study discusses how the representation of executed Indonesian migrant workers in the case of their executions in Saudi Arabia from 2015 to 2018 in The Jakarta Post news articles. This study is analyzed by using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) which specifically uses the Social Actor Representation (SAR) theory from van Leeuwen (2008). In analyzing the data, this study is also supported by the theory of levels of analysis from Richardson (2007) to analyze the text producers’ lexical choice and the theory of transitivity from Halliday and Matthiessen (2004) to analyze the role allocation. This study shows that The Jakarta Post represents the executed Indonesian migrant workers negatively. It can be seen from the text producers’ ways to include the executed Indonesian migrant workers in the representation. Moreover, The Jakarta Post also uses the words ‘kill’, ‘knife to death’, ‘stab’ etc. to describe the executed Indonesian migrant workers.

Nowadays, digital technologies play significant roles in daily life. In educational context, these technologies help learners to gain more knowledge. However, the learners mainly use mobile devices for non-academic purposes, like play game or open the social media applications rather than use the learning applications. In fact, mobile device is an effective media that can make the learners motivated and more interested in learning English. The further research needs to investigate students’ perception on the usage of mobile applications especially in creative writing skill. The participants of the research are 30 senior high school students consisting of 12 males and 18 females. The data is collected by using close-ended questionnaire. This research classified as case study research using randomized sampling. Descriptive data analysis was conducted. The results indicate that mobile applications generally give some advantages in learning English. The perceived benefits of mobile learning comprised opportunities to have ubiquitous learning, have so many exercises, analyze the specific mistakes the learner has made, and also explain the principles behind the correct answer. The learners should maximize the usage of mobile applications positively. The findings have several significant implications for educators, particularly for the use of mobile applications in academic purposes and the strategies to implement mobile learning.

Publisher : University of Muhammadiyah Purwokerto

The volume provides a comprehensive and multidimensional discussion of multilingualism from a broader framework i.e. sociolinguistic perspective, to a more individual i.e. psycholinguistic perspective, and eventually to a more detailed point of view i.e. neurolinguistics perspective. The chapters in the volume is categorized thematically into four separate parts which make it easier for readers to navigate through the general idea of the volume. The recent and relevant issues in the volume makes it a valuable reading for practitioners and especially researchers wanting to reflect on the practices of multilingualism and use it as a reference for future studies. This volume is also an essential resource for graduate students interested in the field. Nevertheless, another volume following the current one is something to look forward to in order to fill the gaps in terms of updates on the practices of multilingualism especially in the countries or regions not included in this volume. At the moment, on the whole, this volume is a rich and comprehensive resource especially for those interested in the topic of multilingualism.

Communicative Strategies or Fossilised Forms: Evaluating English in Language-in-Education Policy Komilie Situmorang
Leksika: Jurnal Bahasa, Sastra dan Pengajarannya Vol 14, No 1 (2020)
Publisher : University of Muhammadiyah Purwokerto

It is widely known the focus of learning of English in Indonesia has always been centred on to how to gain the native speakers’ proficiency and learners’ successfulness in learning English is measured by how their speech production match those of the native speakers’. As international communication is no longer about the native speakers’ competence but the learners’ ability in switching and adjusting their Englishes to different speakers for different purposes, this may now be problematic and irrelevant. Using document analysis method, this paper examines the focus of teaching English in Indonesia during the past and recent curriculums. The finding shows that the curriculums focus on the fossilised forms rather than the communicative strategies and that they are not relevant to evaluate the international intelligibility as contrasted with their emphasis on gaining global participation. The paper therefore suggests the improvement in the curriculum and proposes to incorporate the communicative strategies in the evaluation.
