Abstract

This article is part of a report on the implementation of training activities to increase TOEFL scores for undergraduate students at the Palembang Polytechnic of Civil Aviation. The activities were carried out partly because some of the cadets had never taken a TOEFL test before. This descriptive research was conducted on this activity. The instruments were a needs analysis questionnaire for the students and an interview guideline for the lecturer. The method of implementing the activity is carrying out a TOEFL preparation class for a 4-hour lecture course. The results of the activity show that there is a significant increase in scores but taking into account that TOEFL is divided into three parts: listening, structure and written expressions, and reading comprehension, its preparation process for TOEFL is a long study course. Each unit has different abilities with 27 skills in the listening section, 60 in the structure and written expressions, and 14 in the reading section. Therefore, with a total of 101 skills to be mastered, a 4-hour lecture course is clearly insufficient.

Abstract

Stand Up Comedy Kompas TV is the first single comedy competition event pioneered by Indonesian celebrities, namely Pandji Pragiwaksono, Raditya Dika, Indro Warkop, and Indra Yudhistira, one of the producers and directors of comedy programs at Kompas TV. Not just any comic can appear in this competition (show). The selected comics are the result of selection by the judges so that they can be categorized as the best finalists who of course have undoubted abilities. Stand Up Comedy Kompas TV has broadcast 10 seasons. Uniquely, male participants dominate over female participants. This certainly didn't happen accidentally. Several relevant studies have not raised gender issues in the humorous language techniques of Stand Up Comedy. The aim of this research is to describe the differences in humorous language techniques of male and female participants in the Kompas TV Stand Up Comedy competition. By combining the theories of Berger (1998) and Wijana (2001) with the pragmatic matching method, it is hoped that differences in the humor techniques of male and female participants in the competition can be found. The results showed that the humorous language techniques of male participants that were not used by female participants were (1) infantilism, (2) sexual allusion, (3) repetition, (4) repartee, (5) narcissism, (6) homonyms, ( 7) taboo words, (8) paradoxical figures of speech, (9) exchange of speaking styles, (10) greeting words, and (11) mispronunciations. The female participants' humorous language techniques that were not used by male participants during the audition were (1) role playing, (3) ridicule, (3) roasting, (4) changing words, (5) collocations, and (6) clarification. . From the findings of the use of absurd stories by comic artists, it can be said that the male participants' ability to tell stories outside of logic seems to dominate with the use of this technique by 5 out of 10 male participants in auditioning for SUCI. The language technique of self-deprecation seems to be dominantly used by female comics compared to other humorous language techniques because of the 8 female participants, there are 4 comics who use it.

Abstract

Thus, this research aims to analyze the need for developing digital-based English learning media for deaf children. This qualitative research involved students and teachers at SLB-B Karya Ibu Palembang. A needs analysis was carried out to identify the sustainable situation of deaf children for the development of digital learning media for English lessons. Interview and observation techniques using two types of instruments in the form of interview guides, observation, and field notes were used to collect information about the English language learning needs of deaf students. Research findings identified several needs that underlie the development of digital learning materials for English lessons, namely inadequate English teachers, text-based teaching materials, and less than optimal teaching and learning processes because they are still textbook-based, while deaf students are visual learners. Therefore, the development of digital learning media is very necessary. One of the digital learning media that can be developed is E-books. By using e-books containing media such as pictures, animations, and videos, learning becomes more fun and easier for teachers and deaf students in teaching and learning English.

Artificial intelligence has made inroads into the field of education, particularly with regard to academic writing for language learners. As ChatGPT demonstrates in the learning process, AI is able to react in a highly natural language and have conversations in a variety of scenarios.

It also figures out the connection of process of writing based on (Nang et al., 2008) by using ChatCPT companions. Meanwhile, wisdom in use of it in the learning environment should be taken into consideration because of losing creativity and lack of conversational practice. Therefore, it is suggested to learners and teachers to be careful and wise to interact with this technological tool, since humans can only provide judgement and verification maker.
