Abstract

This study investigates the common errors made by students when using the simple present tense in writing descriptive texts. The aim of the study is to identify the specific types of errors that occur and to explore the factors contributing to these mistakes. The research adopts a descriptive qualitative method to gather data, employing a written test as the data collection tool. To categorize the errors, a surface strategy taxonomy is utilized, which includes four categories: omission, addition, misformation, and misorder. By analyzing the collected data, a total of 214 errors were identified, with 95 instances of omission errors, 22 addition errors, 75 formation errors, and 22 ordering errors. The findings highlight that the most prevalent type of error made by students is omission, while misformation, misorder, and addition errors are relatively less frequent. In addition to error analysis, the study explores the reasons underlying these errors, particularly focusing on interlingual and intralingual transfer. Interlingual transfer refers to the influence of a student's first language on their second language usage, while intralingual transfer refers to the influence of existing knowledge and patterns within the second language itself. These factors contribute to the occurrence of errors in the simple present tense usage within descriptive texts.

Abstract

This research uses a qualitative approach to explore academic information-sharing skills among International Relations study program students. Through interviews with lecturers and students and classroom observations, this research observes interactions in learning English for Specific Purposes (ESP) with a focus on teaching active and passive sentences. By applying the Miles and Huberman model analysis, this research found that teaching active and passive sentences in the ESP approach had a positive and significant impact on the development of various skills, including information sharing, communication, writing, conceptual understanding, critical thinking, as well as student participation and interaction skills, in the context of studying International Relations. This approach also creates a collaborative learning environment where students actively participate in discussions, interact with lecturers and fellow students, and share experiences and knowledge related to learning material. The results of this research consistently support the effectiveness of teaching active and passive sentences in the ESP approach in improving communication, writing, critical thinking skills, and student participation and interaction in the context of learning International Relations. The implications of this research can be the basis for developing curriculum and teaching methods that are more effective in enriching ESP learning for International Relations students.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the correlation between English learners’ motivation and speaking achievement due to the lack of student motivation, particularly in speaking skills that affect the speaking score. The samples of this study were 19 students taken from the second semester of the English Department at the Muslim University of Maros. The method used was mixed methods with correlational technique. Quantitative data was collected by distributing questionnaires to students using Gardner's Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB) indicators and the speaking scores taken from the speaking lecturer. Then, qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews. In analyzing quantitative data, questionnaires assessed by Likert Scale and speaking scores were analyzed using SPSS, while the qualitative data used Miles and Huberman analysis. The quantitative data results indicate a correlation between the motivation of English learners and speaking achievement, with a score of 0.672. It is considered that the higher the motivation in learning speaking, the better the speaking achievement the students achieve. Students with high motivation will try to follow the learning process intensively compared to those with less motivation. Furthermore, students' extrinsic and intrinsic motivation were analyzed by looking at the AMTB’s Gardner and the results of the interview as well. The data results indicated that students show extrinsic motivation more than intrinsic motivation in their speaking achievement.

Abstract

This research aims to reveal the quality of teachers' beliefs in teaching English and its implementation in the curriculum in Bima Regency. The method used is descriptive qualitative and uses purposive sampling techniques. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews with ten teachers from two different schools with questions about teacher experience, teaching experience, educational principles, and teacher personality, then analyzed by data reduction, display, conclusions, and verification. The research results show that: 1) the teacher has an educational background relevant to English subjects and strong motivation to choose an English education major. They also identify idols or role models in learning English. 2) The teachers' teaching experience, with most teachers having taught for more than five years, shows that they consider their main task to be educating, guiding, and providing information to students. Teachers also feel the most impressive experience is when their students succeed. 3) teachers remember the importance of knowledge about content, pedagogy, and students in the teaching process. 4) there is a lack of research and use of specific teaching methods, strategies, and approaches. 5) Implementing the new independent curriculum begins in classes X and XI, with efforts to measure student characteristics and potential, although teachers are still limited in designing open modules. This research concludes that teachers have strong confidence in teaching English, but there are still challenges in implementing the new curriculum.

Abstract

The research focuses on the validity and reliability of a love language questionnaire tailored to the Indonesian context, where cultural nuances play a significant role in interpersonal relationships. The sampling technique in this study used a non-probability sampling method to determine the sample tested, where the population was married individuals in the Bone district. Therefore, the technique chosen was the purposive sampling method. Hence, this research consisted of 30 married individuals from the Bone district. A triangulation approach was applied to develop the questionnaire, combining linguistic analysis, psychological insight, and statistical rigor. This method ensured that the questionnaire captured the nuances of love languages in the Indonesian context. The Love Language Questionnaire was grouped into five indicators: acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, words of affirmation, and physical touch. Each indicator consists of four positive and four negative statements. The type of analysis employed was inferential analysis. The analysis results revealed that 30 items scored above the Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.361, indicating the validity of the items. In addition, Cronbach's alpha coefficients for all indicators exceeded 0.70, indicating reliability. The results indicate that the questionnaire is a valid and reliable instrument for research in psycholinguistics. The limitation wall that hindered the results was the lack of a proper understanding of the sociolinguistic nature of the research population.

Abstract

This research was designed as descriptive qualitative research and aimed at figuring out whether or not the Islamic values were integrated with the lesson plan and the syllabus teachers designed. It is essential to see if these values are integrated, considering that JSIT mandates all Islamic schools to incorporate them in all subjects at all levels. The research took place in Mataram, taking English teachers and schools’ curriculum vice principals in four different Islamic integrated schools spread in Mataram as the subjects. Data was collected through document study and interviews. A document study was conducted to see if the Islamic values were added to the indicators and the teaching procedures teachers designed in both the lesson plan and syllabus. A semi-structured interview was carried out with 4 English teachers and 4 curriculum vice principals who were purposively chosen to get more in-depth and comprehensive information on the lesson plan and syllabus they designed. This research suggested that one school successfully implemented integration among the four integrated Islamic schools. This is seen in their indicators and the teaching procedures that reflect Islamic values. The three schools were yet to implement the integration properly as they considered prayers before and after the lesson and some advice during the lesson as the integration.
