Abstract

Modernism’s overemphasize on universal objectivity as well as its optimistic humanism have generated critical questions. The critics on modernism, labeled under the name of postmodernists, question the neutrality assumed by humanist universalism and scientific objectivism. Seeing the ugly sides of enlightenments, the modernist critics begins to see modernism “as deeply implicated by forms of oppression: sexism, racism, class-ism, colonialism”. The purpose of this paper is to analyze a modernist work from the view point of postmodernism. The work that is under discussion here is “Tonka” by Robert Musil. Within the story, we can see that a form of oppression appears. We are to find  how the form of oppression within the story works. It is interesting to find that the oppression works through the act of silencing. To see how silence is interwoven in the story, we have to firstly set some limitation to make possible the discussion on silence itself. The easiest way to do it is by putting the entity in a binary opposition since the text strongly shows binary organization.

Abstract

Graduates of vocational schools and polytechnics are expected to become skilled workers who are ready to work in various fields of work. Especially for graduates from language study programs, having the language skills and competence certificate is not enough to face the competition in the world of work. They also need to always perform soft skills and work ethics, to be able to get ready for working, to be able to understand colleagues better, and thus to adapt fast in any environment. Thus, there have been issues toward to what extent formal education specifically embeds soft skills and work ethics, what aspects of soft skills and work ethics that employees must possess, and what efforts have been given to develop them. This study aims at describing the efforts done by Language Study Programs, Sekolah Vokasi, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM)to adopt soft skills and work ethics and describing the performance of Language Study Programs, Sekolah Vokasi, UGM graduates in the aspects of soft skills (intrapersonal skill, interpersonal skill, and communication) and work ethics (commitment, integrity, professionalism, and hard work). The data were obtained by conducting observation and interview to the head of Language Study Programs and also administering a self-evaluation questionnaire, containing 47 items of soft skills and 44 work ethics items with five performance indicators (1: never – 5: always), that was distributed to 160 graduates from English, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese Language Study Programs of Sekolah Vokasi UGM. The finding of study suggests that efforts done are soft skills training session (in student orientation), etiquette lesson, support in organization participation, and internship program. The mean score of each indicator in the questionnaire is between 3.62 – 4.65 (out of 5). This score shows that the Language Study Programs graduates often and usually perform soft skills and work ethics that benefit them in the labor market.

Effortless English Movie is a six-day implementation technique that has different instructions for each day. It was a library research since the data are taken by gathering information from books and journals. However, the researchers also did pre-liminary observation to see the students’ perception toward the learning technique at university level to get a better comprehension about the real situation in learning process. The researchers, then, adapted the theory of the Effortless English Movie by A.J. Hoge with the real situation, so it can be used by the teachers well into their classrooms. This technique leads learners to focus on listening to be familiar with English conversation or dialogue, and continue to the speaking section to practice their pronunciation with the movie that has been chosen by the teacher. By using repetition strategy to practice the speaking skill, this technique focuses on speaking like a native speaker with an amusing way. Therefore, Effortless English Movie Technique is an optional easy and enjoyable technique that helps students a lot in learning to communicate fluently and accurately. The researchers hope that this article is useful for the readers, students, teachers, and next researchers in giving information about improving speaking skill. The researchers also expect that this technique can be one of the most favorite techniques that teachers use in classroom for English lesson, especially speaking skill.
