Abstract

So far little has been done to exploit the obvious advantages of theatre as an instrument of language teaching and learning in schools. Part of the reason why theatre has received little attention in our education system is perhaps the confusion regarding the term ‘theatre’ itself. To parents, ‘doing theatre’ is playing, and playing is bad for learning. Children should stop playing and start learning, once they start schooling. To many teachers and headmasters, theatre is nothing more than the annual presentation of the School Play in conjunction with Speech Day or Canteen Day. This often results in poorly performed plays which are embarrassing, for the audience as well as the actors. And certainly, except for the few chosen to act, the majority of the children do not gain much linguistic skills. Thus theatre is shunned away and teachers are apprehensive about using theatre as a teaching method. This paper will therefore try to show the potentials and the magic of theatre in the teaching and learning of language. What we need to do, is to re-define what is meant by the word ‘theatre’, and how it can be used creatively for our learning purposes. Hopefully, after this delivery, teachers are not only motivated to tryand use theatre, but also know how to use it effectively.

Abstract

  Problematic utilization of words and terms in Indonesian language is various and complex. One of them can be identified as utilization of numeral classifiers in trading activity, especially at modern market. Most of numeral classifier words that are used in that situation do not come from Indonesian language, they are derived from foreign languages, especially English. Meanwhile Indonesian language has much varied words and terms in the numeral classifier. As a result, there are number of words in Indonesian numeral classifier that begin to disappear or are not used anymore. As the national language and the language of the country, it is obligation to Indonesian to maintained, nurtured, and developed it. Maintaining the Indonesian language is necessary in order to maintaining the national identity of Indonesia. In other hands, nurturing Indonesian language is very important to straighten the standardized Indonesian language. Whereas in the context of development, Indonesian language must be developed by referring to the word or term that already existed in Indonesia rather than form other languages. Based on these three aspects, it can be clearly seen that Indonesian language as National Identity of Indonesia, especially in utilization of numeral classifier words in trading activities at modern market, has not functioned appropriately. Therefore, utilization of numeral classifier words at the modern market must follow the Indonesian language guidance to strengthen Indonesian National Identity and to avoid the existing numeral classifiers of Indonesian language from becoming archaic words.   Keyword: archaic, identity, trading, numeral classifier words, modern market
