Abstract

This research was conducted due to the importance of speaking strategies that advocates in court should possess. This study aims to describe the advocate’s speaking strategies in court, seen from the plea and exception drafts, and to see how they can be implemented in advocate professional education in Indonesia. The type of this research is qualitative descriptive using a descriptive analysis approach. The data are plea and exception drafts, notes, and court minutes. The data were collected through observation, interviews, recording, and collecting the the collection of plea and exception drafts. The validity of the data was assured by using semantic validity. The data was analyzed by reducing and presenting the data and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the speaking strategy used mainly by the advocate at the trial was straightforward speaking strategies with positive politeness pleasantries, which was 52.6%. Meanwhile, the lowest number of speaking strategies found in the draft were straightforward speaking strategies without any form of pleasantries, and it was 9.1%. Based on these data, the concept of a speaking strategy has been implemented, although there are still various obstacles and shortcomings. The challenges that arise include advances in technological development, mastery of the concept of speaking strategies, and digital-based learning components. Involvement and engagement with various elements are helpful for the advancement of professional training of prospective advocates in order to achieve the vision, mission, and expected goals.

Abstract

Although there have been a few studies on written e-feedback in EFL writing coursework, the research on students’ perception of e-feedback practice in online learning in Indonesia's higher education context is still underexplored. This study aims to investigate EFL undergraduate students’ perception of the lecturers’ e-feedback practice during online thesis proposal writing coursework. Two students from two different classes were willing to participate in in-depth interviews. A descriptive qualitative approach with thematic analysis was employed as the research method. The findings revealed three prominent themes on how the students perceive the lecturers’ e-feedback practices. The participants perceived that the lecturers’ e-feedback practice:  (1) scaffolded the participants to develop technical and conceptual writing skills, (2) supported the participants' personal and academic development, and (3) influenced the participants’ emotions. Students who initially felt unable to face online classes during the COVID-19 pandemic gradually got used to and overcame the feeling of being unable to take online courses. This study implies that the lecturers’ role in being thoughtful in delivering feedback to students is critical because e-feedback as a pedagogical practice influences students’ social and emotional learning process in writing their undergraduate thesis. Participants who initially felt unable to face online classes during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the end, finally succeeded in overcoming the feeling of not being able to take online courses for their undergraduate thesis writing because they were being scaffolded, supported, and influenced by the lecturers’ e-feedback practices during their online learning.

Abstract

Textbooks play a crucial role in the teaching-learning process by offering students a well-organized and thorough source of information. They function as an essential educational resource, motivating pupils to attain fluency in the desired language. This qualitative study examines the lexical string pattern of two English as a Foreign Language (EFL) textbooks using Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL). By focusing on lexical strings, it aims to uncover how vocabulary is sequenced and contextualized within the texts, providing insights into the coherence and cohesion strategies employed. As their capacity to disclose social and cultural aspects of language use, as well as their authenticity, intertextuality, interactive quality, and communicative roles, reading passages samples from the textbooks were selected and modified into clauses for analysis. The results show repetitive, synonymous, and meronymic counts provide insights into language usage and contribute to the overall texture and structure of the analysed texts. On the other hand, higher counts of lexical strings and lexical relations suggest a higher level of diversity and complexity. The results have pedagogical implications for effective EFL teaching. In this respect, teachers can improve vocabulary retention and coherence in language instruction by using strategic approaches based on their awareness of the dominance of repetition and short lexical strings. Thus, this study gives a significant contribution to the field of EFL teaching by providing teachers to create more contextually appropriate and successful language teaching resources that will accelerate students' development of language proficiency. For students, it offers enhanced learning materials tailored to their needs, promoting faster and more effective language acquisition.

Abstract

This study aimed to gather information about the approaches and strategies used by Indonesian language teachers in teaching writing lessons in Indonesian language classes in response to the previous studies identifying junior high school students’ challenges in Indonesian language writing. A survey was done using an online questionnaire distributed to 166 teachers from various schools in the country. However, only 126 were taken, as the rest admitted that they did not teach Indonesian language writing in their classes. The questionnaire was adopted from Self-Assessment of Writing Strategies by Marquette University and was validated to serve valid and reliable data. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and teachers’ proficiency in coping with various approaches to teaching the language and their keen strategies to help students in the writing classes were found. The findings suggested that despite teachers' proficiency in many approaches to teaching, students still encountered challenges in multiple aspects of writing. Therefore, there was a need for continuous improvement in curriculum design and to assist students through corrective feedback to help them cope with their writing problems. In summary, the study emphasized the importance of ongoing research, professional development, and improved writing instruction.

Abstract

Teaching literature enhances sensitivity to life's values across diverse cultural expressions, while culturally grounded English aims to instill an appreciation for these values. Environmental themes in literary works underscore safety and sustainability and promote public awareness and appreciation for environmental preservation. The article explores how mobile-assisted learning can enhance students' understanding and appreciation of environmental themes in literature within the context of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. This study is qualitative research, using semi-structured interviews and questionnaires as the instruments by which the data were collected. Involving 32 English Education Department students, this study presents information about mobile-assisted learning (MAL) applications in teaching literature. As a result, through the MAL model, students engage in various activities in the classroom, such as reading, writing, discussing, and presenting ideas. Students' enthusiasm indicates their deep understanding of the effectiveness of the MAL learning model for visual attraction and clarity. It provides visual information about the dangerous effects of environmental damage. This could be seen in their responses to sadness, worry, anxiety, and anger. Further research could use this finding as a new starting point to explore specific mobile apps' effectiveness, long-term impacts on literary awareness and appreciation, comparative studies across different age groups, and the role of teacher facilitation in mobile-assisted EFL literature instruction.

Abstract

The research was conducted to find the perceptions of English teachers and students toward the use of authentic reading materials in schools. The study was conducted at three junior high schools in Pamekasan. A research survey was employed with seven steps: (1) Questionnaire Development and Validation; (2) Try-Out; (3) Questionnaire Distribution; (4) Data Analysis; (5) Interview; (6) Result; and (7) Conclusion. In collecting the data, two kinds of instruments, consisting of a close-ended questionnaire, were distributed via Google form to six English teachers and 73 students in grade nine, and an interview with the English teachers was conducted. Using SPSS for data analysis, the results showed that 83.3% of teachers strongly agreed that authentic materials are up-to-date and relevant to everyday life, with an average score of 3.8 on a 4-point Likert scale. For students, 75.3% agreed that authentic materials increased their interest in reading English texts, with an average score of 3.1.  The research findings revealed that authentic reading materials in the ninth grade had various advantages; the material taught is easy to understand, up-to-date, relevant to everyday life, increases the students’ motivation, and mastering vocabulary. Meanwhile, there were various disadvantages; students still feel sluggish when they must read the assigned text; they require more time to grasp the text; it is difficult to locate appropriate authentic material for students; and students hope that teacher will leave the class soon. In conclusion, while authentic reading materials present certain challenges, their benefits in enhancing student engagement and motivation outweigh the drawbacks. Teachers can address these challenges by implementing a variety of solutions to improve the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

Studio Ghibli has made great animated films for more than three decades. One of its great animators is Hayao Miyazaki. Being famous for his award-winning and picturesque films, Miyazaki has proven to be a highly skilled animator presenting a catchy shōjo with distinctive characters. His shōjo named Kiki in Kiki’s Delivery Service has peculiar traits. This research aims at proving the opposition of Kiki to the common Japanese female character archetype. Eight pieces of data are in the form of screen captures to be studied semiotically. As part of social science research, this study is qualitative in nature. By employing Barthesian semiotic theory and Sugawa-Shimada’s theory of shōjo, it is evident that Kiki opposes the archetype of Japanese female characters. Kiki is portrayed as independent, assertive, not depending on one specific type of magical weapon, wearing a simple black witch dress, able to make prompt and clear decisions, doing daily chores, and having magical power that might be gone anytime due to some psychological reasons. Theoretically, this study contributes to the development of the linguistic field, particularly the stream of semiotics. This research also benefits researchers, film-makers, film audiences, and Studio Ghibli’s enthusiasts in a semiotic way that Kiki as shōjo is constructed with great empowerment opposing the common stereotype of a female character.

Abstract

People engage in various types of discourse every single day. With everyone’s differences in attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours, persuasion is a skill that comes into play. Therefore, it is essential to develop an ability to analyze persuasive messages encountered critically (Borchers, 2005) and, hence, master the art of persuasion. This study, which delves into the rhetoric of former Philippine President Rodrigo Roa Duterte (PRRD), has yielded significant findings. Several speeches of PRRD have been scrutinized numerous times through Discourse Analysis (DA). Many researchers have employed Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), while only a few have attempted to employ Rhetorical Discourse Analysis (RDA). Hence, the researcher conducted this study to enrich the literature on RDA further in PRRD’s speeches. In this study, the researcher conducted an RDA on the speech of PRRD entitled “Nation Address of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte on Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic” to identify and investigate the rhetorical devices and rhetorical elements found in the text which significantly played in generalizing the type of rhetoric the former President Duterte is. As revealed, PRRD used rhetorical devices such as description, personal pronouns, modals, cause-effect relationships, repetition, and evidence and authorities. Moreover, he also employed the three rhetorical elements such as logos through a cause-effect relationship, ethos through his Filipino citizenship, local or ethnic origin, and experiences being the president, and pathos through the display of varied emotions such as fear, sympathy and empathy, love and affection, respect, trust and assurance, and pity. In conclusion, PRRD is presented as a rhetor who utilizes the appeal of fear to exemplify his arguments, which are evident in the rhetorical devices and rhetorical elements in his speech.

Abstract

A major challenge for second language learners on academic programmes is how they develop their writing abilities. This study uses the framework of process writing (Flower & Hayes, 1981; Hayes, 2012)  and an autoethnographic research design data construction (Starfield, 2020; Yazan et al., 2020) to explore how one-second language learner changed how they planned their assignments and responded to feedback from their tutors on a one-year MA programme.  Working with a critical friend, the author-researcher draws on six data sets: assignment briefs, guidance provided by lecturers, the author/researcher’s outlines/plans for the assignments with comments from lecturers, notes on journal articles and textbooks, feedback from lecturers and personal reflections on the writing process. The author/researcher’s development became more sophisticated in locating/ using sources and structuring her writing with language feedback impacting writing strategies rather than language knowledge.  Her writing development was influenced by contextual features, particularly non-academic factors that limited the time she had for writing, and the structure of the assessment on her programme scaffolded her writing in terms of increasing the length of assignments and the use of the author/researcher’s own experience.

Abstract

Creating the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), with its motto, one vision, one identity, and one community, holds an integral role in unifying Southeast Asian countries. With this, there is a need to achieve a united branding. Lerman, Morais, and Luna (2018) elaborate on the importance of being aware of the relationship between language and culture, which aids in creating a brand language that mirrors the culture of their target customers. With this study, brand advertisers can learn the importance of language branding and the differences in the language used to achieve a united ASEAN branding. In understanding ASEAN’s branding, Grey’s Language Style Theory was employed in the different pre-pandemic and post-pandemic tourism slogans, focusing on the syntactic and lexical features using the descriptive method. The study's findings demonstrate that most syntactic forms of post-pandemic slogans have changed from phrases to sentences. It also reveals that most of the post-pandemic slogans used short sentences and simple, colloquial, and imperative language in their syntactic features. Most of the post-pandemic tourism slogans were modified for the lexical features to use simple vocabulary, glamorization, and repetition. Furthermore, the post-pandemic slogans suggest a more enthusiastic ASEAN tourism branding centered on passion, wonder, and love.
